Versatyl - V.O.A lyrics

[Intro] [Verse 1] Yo my people been oppressed and nobody cares less Their leaders all corrupt so the land still a mess Everyday new stress, see the kids clue less Schools just be a jest, hospitals bring d**h Politicians got money to spray up in the party And no it's not funny cos I see the people hungry Every day on the streets, I see them browbeat The people they were meant to lead and uplift Motherland be adrift, so it's time to rethink See the people need to know and to take control Wisdom is the key, hate has got to go Ignorance and greed, can only mislead There's no need to fight, cause we all need peace War's grief for we peeps, can you fight like Bruce Lee? Born in a city now going up in flames God we need a change, why do lames run the game? [Hook] There's a smile on my face but it's really no joke They all talk fast but they all think slow They act like they do but they really don't know We try to save souls but they say no go Yeah there's a smile on my face but it's really no joke They all talk fast but they all think slow They act like they do but they really don't know We try to save souls but they say no go [Verse 2] Aiyyo, running through the jungle of this thing called life Praying, hoping for the best but I see it in their eyes They wonder what I'm doing when I'm trying to climb Keep my head above the water like a cat with nine lives Me, I wonder what would happen if they walked in our shoes But that being said, you can only be you Taking it back to the blues and the good old school One day you're smiling, you're a baby, next you got no tooth Age old trees have roots and they've got they use But then human beings choose to take the fruit It was forbidden like the ooze and you think it's cool To sit, watch while it drops like an apple from the tree Keep running your mouth on things that shouldn't be You keep running your mouth on things that shouldn't be [Hook] [Verse 3] Now, you gotta think first before you open your mouth Every word's got a price and you know that's right And the love of the j**els over love of the books Is bound to turn us all to a society of fools For a fact God is, but you say old school I'm trying to spread the truth, not pretend to be cool So I'm looking through my rear view M.J's really gone too, did what he was born to And me I'm trying to rock too Brothers what the deal, the minds still the key? I wish I had the fee, we could all be free But the battle line's drawn, you gotta pick a side k**er bees on the swarm, are you down for ride? From the very first time, that the eyes saw the light It could not be shut, like a heavenly prize So one time for the mind, and two for the cash The loves still above, so it's time for the dash [Hook] [Outro]
