Mmmmm
See he's organized
And he's on the ball
Never miss a day of school
And he's a underdog
Wanna learn more and more
Cuz his mama taught him good
He's about to change the face
Of yo ghetto neighborhood
Walking to school today
Saw a brother on the streets
Seem like errthang was cool
Cept the brother's packing heat
Oop oop
Then everything changed
Cuz he saw his own wings
And his mother was sad
They will last
Time will pass
Cuz I
What am I talkin' bout
Errbody know what dis song's about
Dey be trying to hide the history
But they know who we are
Do you want to see
Errybody rise to this degree?
Raise ya hands high if you agree
Just say "Yessireeee" ooooh,

Well dey gone fuck around and push delete
To my girls on prescription pills
I know how ya feel
To my boys in Iraqi fields
This ain't no time to kill
To my girls in therapy,
See imma tell you this for free
To my folks up on the hill,
With the cake and dollar bills,
You need to watch da dirty cop
Dey the one you need to watch
I'm talking bout the dirty cop
Dey the one you need to WATCH

You get the wake up call
When you saw the buildings fall
Bow ties with the final call
Get ya money dollar bill y'all
Bow ties with the final calls
Get ya money dollar bill y'all
To my folks on the picket line
Don't stop till you change dey mind

Baptized when the levy broke

Until you hear dat freedom song
And if you think about turning back
I got the shotgun on ya back
And if you think about turning back
