Change

Change, the word can mean a few cents or a philosophy

But it ain't easy, and that shit don't come for free

People fucking hate change in today's society

They want shit to stay the same because it is easy

That is why is our culture is so broken and stagnant

Half of the kids in our schools can't do basic subtraction

I'm writing this because we need to change, and take action

People in high places have the money, but they lack the passion

Why are there so many people with power who abuse it?

I will admit, I cannot predict what the future will hold. Shit,

No one can, but the path we are going down is dark,

I might be an underdog, but this shit is not a bark.

These are real problems that we are facing,

I know I'm not perfect, and that's not what I am saying,

I may not have had the best education

But I am smart enough to see our situation

 

These are my thoughts

This is real shit

Learned, not taught

This is realness

Take a look in the fucking mirror

Because this shit could not be clearer

Heaven's getting farther, and hell is getting nearer

This is like murder she wrote, kudos to the killer

 

 

Change can mean many things, but what does it mean to me?

It means a chance for a young white boy from the streets

A chance to be a rapper, and a chance to live his dream

People be caring more about the color of his skin than what's on the inside

You don't listen to him because of the fact that he's white, rap apartheid

But that shit goes both ways,

Because you will still hear people say,

That Caucasians are the dominant race,

That's why people in Ferguson need to keep marching,

Police shoot innocent men every day

We cannot continue to sit around watching

Until that shit stops, we are gonna say:

Michael Brown

Eric Garner

Rodney King

Trayvon Martin

None of y'all will ever be forgotten

What is the price of a black man's life?

Any life is precious, so that shit don't got a price.

Priceless

Bang bang, bullets in the back, lost your life

Lifeless

Stabbed in the ribs, path you're going down is dark

Lightless

People are blind with ignorance

Sightless

 

These are my thoughts

This is real shit

Learned, not taught

This is realness

Take a look in the fucking mirror

Because this shit could not be clearer

Heaven's getting farther, and hell is getting nearer

This is like murder she wrote, kudos to the killer

 

 

got into drugs to run away from the society

That took away my sobriety

and that was slowly killing me

Because no one was listening

To what I had to say

Every single day

My thoughts got worse

Fantasized about my body in a hearse

I tried to OD

I tried to hang myself

Pills didn't work

Neither did the belt

So now I am on a mission

The whole world is my opposition

People act like they got their brains in the off position

I don't got swag, but I got ambition

Because I just want one thing.

Change

Change, let the word ring

Because to me, it means everything

I'm only 5'10" but I got dreams bigger than Yao Ming

I don't know if there is a God, or if there is a plan,

But I will try as hard as I can

To rearrange this society

That changed my belief in a deity

 

 

These are my thoughts

This is real shit

Learned, not taught

This is realness

Take a look in the fucking mirror

Because this shit could not be clearer

Heaven's getting farther, and hell is getting nearer
