Josh Brown - America's Child lyrics

Lavell: Back in this mug like I never ever left and I'm joggin' in first place Work so hard, everyday on the job, is it worth it in the first place? But, but, but, you want it all and you want it right now And you want it in the worst way So the worst case scenario, they probably plan your burial Play you on the stereo, shoot you and there you go, POW! Cause I seen all the time on the news bout the drive-by Kid shot the man but the man was a Rabbi Welcome to the days of our lives, tryna' find allies, what's that? Better pray to Allah, to help that Ladies go Gaga, n***as eat Popeyes, life is so Haha, and all that See… your mind may be closed when your eyes is wide open The kids are just laughin', and drinkin', and tokin' They don't have no hope but their moms are just hopin' But you and I know tell me who is she jokin'? They do what they see they is grabbin' their scrotum The cops they patrol them and try to control them Mane, now ain't that some shamefulness, this world is dangerous Why they play with us, when they know we can't win? They make us seem brainless, then they want to enslave us I swear I done seen this, not again Hook: I seen all the time on the news bout the drive-by The kid shot the man but the man was a Rabbi Never in your life you'll see, a world unbound and a mind that's free A world that's fit for a human being Josh: BEINGS!!! 
With that being said Just hope a n***a don't end up dead Walk these streets, all I see is red That's innocent people, lying in their blood Folks play dirty, trying to drag me through the mud Hate what I see, what I see on the web Politicians lying, that's what I call corrupt Got me asking, where's the love? We don't get enough of it, they shoot folks in public Then try to empty our budgets, whoa, what the heck is that? Taxes pay for more bombs and gats Put them in the hood, for the kids with no dads It's all in ink like they putting on a tat I'm just saying facts. Plus they hate blacks Ronald Reagan made crack. If they frontin how can I stay back? We need to find our way back, to the days there was peace Smoking them trees, now a n***a can't lay back Without being paranoid, got questions that they all avoid Taking most of the money, why you think most folks unemployed? So if you want answers first you better ask why Cause you look like a fool trying to blame it on the Rabbi Hook: I seen all the time on the news bout the drive-by The kid shot the man but the man was a Rabbi Never in your life you'll see, a world unbound and a mind that's free A world that's fit for a human being Josh: The truth is These n***as out here they ruthless Iraq been done called the truces First chance I'mma call it deuces Lavell: So I'm outta here, 
it's not like these people really care Watch 'em take away your medicare I hope these n***as hear me loud and clear Josh: Loud and clear. Loud and clear Can you hear me? Loud and clear Trust me when I say "watch for your peers" I can feel it, the end is near Lavell: And the end has come Watch this cop gon pull out his gun They want that smoke to infect your lungs Freedom of speech but watch your tongue Josh: Watch your tongue, watch what you say Lavell: Watch what you hear, watch what you play Josh: Give or take they might take you away Lavell: Bury the evidence hide your body Josh: Where's your body? Nowhere to be found Lavell: No not a trace, where are you now? Josh: Call themselves kings but I will not bow Lavell: This is the life... Both: ...of America's Child
