yeah, im a people person, freakin the deleted version
beast of burden rhyme style my life is still a sweet diversion
complete the circuit, dont defeat the purpose
sleaze circus observin the whole earth on the surface
got a dozen ways to say it so it spins on any playlist
patience for the long haul, now i make it blatant
yeah, people come, people go, people fall down
people run, people know people all round
i get involved with my neighbors on a hand shake
activate my block and then expand it to your landscape
animate the love and carry through on all the plans made
organize your city and invite them to a clam bake
people laugh, people yell, people break bread
people ask, people tell people they said
he say, she say, we playin both sides
hatin one another without a second to know why
go find the opposite of you and tell em God lives
go embrace all of your children if you got kids
walk a mile in my shoes and count your losses
imma show you how to--watch this
people are people and we all must see
a little bit of you in me
some need a little more patience to be
people are people are people are people are we [2x]
[playdough]
yo, we're all the same, we pump game through blood veins
some stay enhardened but we claim the Son came
blacken the crescent moon, we can feel the presence soon
as the soul flower effervescent bloom
impendin doom on the man who placed himself first
gotta speak out what i know and try to make it well-versed
cuz when hell's purse ring out that bell cursed
we'll be lookin for them friends and family we should tell first
but its too late now, we didnt live it out loud
we was busy talkin it and squakin it we stay proud
and you love to tell me that its my job cause of this mic
but you know that dude at work that still aint seen the light
and that was all you, please let your light shine
cuz theres only so much i can say when i write rhymes
still, i try to take you where some can break through
but its your decision, aint nobody that could make you
people are people and we all must see
a little bit of you in me
some need a little more patience to be
people are people are people are people are we [2x]

we all got our problems and that's not a problem
and spend most of our time just trying to solve em
instead of learning from em, internin from em
we end up hurtin for em, and then burnin for em
people are people are people are people are people
and fill out their day with all the necessary evils
i'll throw you a line if you promise to grab it
it's not my habit, i don't know why i have it
but i do and i need you
and i'm really pretty certain that you need me too
that's what we're here for, we can help each other out
but people are people who end up down in the mouth
so let's cut some slack out for people everywhere
who always live their lives like they just don't care
cuz when it's all counted out at the end of the day
i'll sign my check to you because we're all ok
