歌曲歌詞
It's kind of hard to keep
Faith in the things that you do
When everybody turns they back on you
It's kind of hard to keep
Faith in the things that you do
When everybody turns they back on you
It's kind of hard to keep
Faith in the things that you do
When everybody turns they back on you
It's kind of hard to keep
Faith in the things that you do
When everybody turns their back
Yeah I know a city that's
Surrounded by a beautiful beach
The economy boosted by the
Drugs they move in the street
More clearer than the crystal sky
Blue as the beast
The people ain't got shoes
For they feet or food to eat
So they hurtin but what's
For certain you can get you some heat
And over beef you laid to rest
Like you was gettin some sleep
Where the little kids get ammunition
You can't get no nutrition
Or any type of suitable living condition listen
They shoot you over that paper
It's just survivalist human nature
To put you out of your misery
Like euthanasia
Don't let them fool you we
Ain't different than the youth in Asia
Africa and Europe
It's a small world we truly neighbors
If they the third world
Then who the first to get to heaven
I know it's hard but who
Does God choose to go through it worst
Usually it's the prophets
Ask a cat what really matters
Nowadays usually it's his pockets
We gotta get back to
What really matters
We gotta search our soul
To find out what we're after
The more I find my voice
The more they try to make it harder
Mom and dad don't forget
To warn your sons and daughters
About the-na-ture-of-the-world-to-day
The nature of the world today
The-na-ture-of-the-world-to-day
The nature of the world today
Word Don't nobody talk no
More they all text message
Drivin and typin
Not payin attention missin they next exit
Dependin on navigation
They ever know where they goin
They stayin stuck in
One spot they not growing
I'm so over crying
Waitin and hoping playing the blame game
The game changed me into like Dwayne Wayne
I'm getting high just to maintaing
Take my music like a drug and drop
The needle in the same vein
I get a rush like I'm tweekin off blow
Except it ain't via the nose
It's from deep in my soul
The street slang I be speakin in code
Kick in the do's freaking the
Flow 'til the speakers explode
We in control
The people know I speak the truth
The power of my roots
Is thicker than sour sop
And they so strong they
Bustin out the flower pot
Family tradition is to
Tell 'em you love 'em
While your family livin from
Granny in the kitchen the little man in prison
We gotta get back to
What really matters
We gotta search our soul
To find out what we're after
The more I find my voice
The more they try to make it harder
Mom and dad don't forget
To warn your sons and daughters
About the-na-ture-of-the-world-to-day
The nature of the world today
The-na-ture-of-the-world-to-day
The nature of the world today
It's kind of hard to keep
Faith in the things that you do
When everybody turns they back on you
It's kind of hard to keep
Faith in the things that you do
When everybody turns they back on you
It's kind of hard to keep
Faith in the things that you do
When everybody turns they back on you
It's kind of hard to keep
Faith in the things that you do
When everybody turns their back
I'm just trying to get back
To what really matters
I'm trying to search my soul
To find out what I'm after
But the more I find my voice
The more they try to make it harder
So mom and dad don't forget
To warn your sons and daughters
About the-na-ture-of
The world today
The nature of the world today
The-na-ture-of
The world today
The nature of the world today
Yeah it's all natural baby
It's how we put it there
Yeah Brooklyn to Tennessee
You going up with me
Yeah yeah break it down
