This life is love this life is God this life is no regrets This life is pain this life is work this life is blood and sweat God told me it'd take blood sweat and tears Trying to live that rap life, let me buzz debt and fears Strange people start to hate, success coming near It's a shame when we're stressed, and possessed by our fear (uh) See it clear through the man in the mirror Trying to make a change for everyone, not make them feel inferior Cause I don't know if we can help or not But I can smell the shot on the corner even before the shell could drop Guess you gotta let your metal pop, while we watching every felon walk cause nobody ever tells the cops Seldom caught so they're always selling rock “Do we live in a melting pot?” is like asking if Hell is hot Yeah we're compelled to stop, taking L's and getting locked Cause we understand the system, but just can't connect the dots Other people divided in the pigments of a fragment nation I'm just a voice, a figment of your imagination It's your choice, be different and find your aspiration
Instead of being a full trick by fascination Train of thought, get on track, now we leave the station Goal for 2012, better conversation Between nations so they can make reparations Politicians never did live up to my expectations Feeling gifted ‘cause music is more than recreation Trying to manage my business between these celebrations Our invention is intuition and innovation I saw this vision in my head and now I'm on the stage I wrote this wisdom so we can carry on through the ages Still they always used to judge me by my age It's a shame we ain't aware of our saviors Some stay blind from the womb to the grave So keep these rhymes in the tomb of the ancients And no matter what happens, keep the faith ‘Cause one day we gonna learn to save the planet, God My kids will learn to fly to outerspace ‘Cause they keep you trapped inside metal cages So take these bars, break them down, and we'll escape And if the evils make you start to hate your peoples Just remember God is love and you'll be safe
