Written by:bailey, buck, hamilton, kelley ...[00:00:03]
Either they don't know don't show[00:00:06]
Or don't care about what's going on in the hood[00:00:12]
Uh uh yeah uh yeah yeah [00:00:17]
This your boy chingaling man[00:00:23]
Need to talk to the world real quick[00:00:25]
Talk to 'em man [00:00:27]
You know we got a lot of problems going on[00:00:28]
In the inner city [00:00:31]
In the ghetto in the hood[00:00:32]
They ain't hearin' you [00:00:34]
Ain't nobody touchin' on democrats Republicans all those folks [00:00:36]
You know they don't care[00:00:40]
What's going on in the ghetto anyway[00:00:41]
Everyday I wake up with a regular mentality[00:00:43]
But I'm a target on the street[00:00:46]
And that's just reality[00:00:48]
Cats in the ghetto ain't never had a high salary[00:00:49]
Except makin' deals and selling blow in the alley[00:00:52]
See the system was made for us to fail [00:00:55]
Look at the jails[00:00:57]
Overpopulated with Mexicans and young black males[00:00:57]
I ain't tellin' the tale so we choose heaven or hell[00:01:00]
Don't care about letters from school[00:01:03]
We'd rather get street mail[00:01:05]
I been a witness to some murders[00:01:06]
Snitchin'I do without it[00:01:08]
But then I wonder[00:01:09]
Why the damn police don't do nothing about it[00:01:10]
Go to the unemployment office [00:01:12]
Hell yeah it's crowded[00:01:14]
Our hoods takin' wrong turns [00:01:15]
Now it's time to reroute it[00:01:16]
I know a lil' dude 13 [00:01:18]
Carry a burner dropped out of school[00:01:20]
Teacher said he wasn't a fast learner[00:01:22]
Sometimes I wonder [00:01:23]
In 20 years I wonder where we gon' be[00:01:25]
When I say we [00:01:27]
I mean my black community ya digg[00:01:28]
They don't know how it feels to hurt so long[00:01:30]
'Cause they never walked in these shoes[00:01:36]
And they never had to cry these blues[00:01:39]
How many men turn their back on us so long[00:01:42]
Always say what they gon' do[00:01:48]
But they never seem to come through[00:01:50]
Pardon my French but I don't think[00:01:53]
We ready for a lady president[00:01:55]
It's evident that it's a mans world so that's irrelevant[00:01:57]
The system think we all niggas and we not intelligent[00:02:00]
But Martin Luther and Malcolm taught me[00:02:02]
Before I'm heaven sent[00:02:04]
The girls havin' kids and they still some kids[00:02:05]
Poppin' them out one after another like[00:02:08]
That's what it is[00:02:10]
It's innocent cats doin' bizz they just tryin' to life[00:02:11]
And the police don't even know[00:02:14]
If the crime they did[00:02:15]
It's got my brain in a twist [00:02:17]
So I'm twistin' a leaf[00:02:18]
On my balcony smokin'[00:02:20]
And drinkin' trying to see some relief[00:02:21]
If I can change our neighborhoods I would [00:02:22]
Put that on me[00:02:25]
This world messed up and that Stevie Wonder can see[00:02:26]
So to my dogs locked down set ya mind free[00:02:28]
'Cause you and I don't even believe[00:02:31]
You can get your degree[00:02:33]
Sometimes I wonder in 20 years where we gon' be[00:02:35]
And when I say we I mean my black community [00:02:37]
Let's go[00:02:41]
They don't know how it feels to hurt so long[00:02:41]
'Cause they never walked in these shoes[00:02:46]
And they never had to cry these blues[00:02:49]
How many men turn their back on us so long[00:02:53]
Always say what they gon' do[00:02:58]
But they never seem to come through[00:03:01]
I twist the cap off the bottle [00:03:04]
Take a sip and see tomorrow[00:03:05]
Like pac wash away the sorrow[00:03:07]
While police hit the block[00:03:08]
I be up all night askin' God for the truth[00:03:10]
He told me thinking translated[00:03:13]
In my own words in the booth[00:03:14]
Try to reach the youth 'cause that's what matters today[00:03:16]
I'm ain't too religious[00:03:18]
But I get on my knees and pray[00:03:20]
Sometimes I wonder in 20 years where we gon' be[00:03:22]
I ain't gotta wonder no more [00:03:25]
My people rollin' with me yeah[00:03:26]
They don't know how it feels to hurt so long[00:03:28]
'Cause they never walked in these shoes[00:03:33]
And they never had to cry these blues[00:03:36]
How many men turn their back on us so long[00:03:40]
Always say what they gon' do[00:03:45]
But they never seem to come through[00:03:48]
Yeah they'll never come through wo oh oh[00:03:53]
They don't know about this thing[00:04:01]
