Sing For A Moment - Ghetto Superstar[00:00:00]
These ideas are nightmares to white parents[00:00:23]
Whose worst fear is a child with dyed hair and[00:00:26]
Who likes earrings like whatever they say has no bearing[00:00:28]
It's so scary in a house that allows no swearing[00:00:32]
To see him walkin' around with his headphones blaring[00:00:35]
Alone in his own zone cold and he don't care[00:00:38]
He's a problem child and what bothers him all comes out[00:00:40]
When he talks about his f**kin' dad walkin' out[00:00:43]
'Cause he just hates him so bad that he blocks him out[00:00:46]
If he ever saw him again' he'd probably knock him out[00:00:49]
His thoughts are whacked he's mad so he's talkin' back[00:00:52]
Talkin' black brainwashed from rock and rap[00:00:55]
He sags his pants doo rags and a stockin' cap[00:00:58]
His step father hit him so he socked him back[00:01:01]
And broke his nose his house is a broken home[00:01:04]
There's no control he just let's his emotions go[00:01:07]
C'mon sing with me sing[00:01:10]
Sing for the year sing it[00:01:11]
Sing for the laughter sing for the tear c'mon[00:01:13]
Sing it with me just for today[00:01:16]
Maybe tomorrow the good lord will take you away[00:01:19]
Entertainment is changin' intertwinin' with gangsters[00:01:28]
In' the land of the killers a sinner's mind is a sanctum[00:01:31]
Holy or unnholy only have one homie[00:01:34]
Only this gun lonely 'cause don't anyone know me[00:01:36]
Yet everybody just feels like they can relate[00:01:39]
I guess words are a motherf**ker they can be great[00:01:42]
Or they can degrate or even worse they can teach hate[00:01:45]
It's like these kids hang on every single statement we make[00:01:48]
Like they worship us plus all the stores ship us platinum[00:01:51]
Now how the f**k did this metamorphosis happen[00:01:54]
From standin' on corners and porches just rappin'[00:01:57]
To havin' a fortune no more kissin' a**[00:02:00]
But then these critics crucify you journalists try to burn[00:02:02]
You fans turn on you attorneys all want a turn at you[00:02:06]
To get they hands on every dime you have[00:02:08]
They want you to lose your mind every time you mad[00:02:11]
So they can try to make you out to[00:02:14]
Look like a loose cannon[00:02:16]
Any dispute won't hesitate to produce handguns[00:02:17]
That's why these prosecutors wanna convict me[00:02:20]
Strictly just to get me off of these streets quickly[00:02:23]
But all they kids be listenin' to me religiously[00:02:26]
So I'm signin' cd's while police fingerprint me[00:02:29]
They're for the judge's daughter[00:02:32]
But his grudge is against me[00:02:33]
If I'm such a f**kin' menace[00:02:35]
This sh*t doesn't make sense b[00:02:36]
It's all political if my music is literal[00:02:38]
And I'm a criminal how the f**k[00:02:41]
Can I raise a little girl[00:02:42]
I couldn't I wouldn't be fit to[00:02:44]
You're full of sh*t too guerrera[00:02:46]
That was a fist that hit you[00:02:48]
C'mon sing with me sing[00:02:49]
Sing for the year sing it[00:02:51]
Sing for the laughter sing for the tear[00:02:53]
Sing it with me just for today[00:02:56]
Maybe tomorrow the good lord will take you away[00:02:58]
They say music can alter moods and talk to you[00:03:07]
Well can it load a gun up for you and cock it too[00:03:10]
Well if it can and the next time you assault a dude[00:03:13]
Just tell the judge it was my fault and I'll get sued[00:03:15]
See what these kids do is hear about us totin' pistols[00:03:18]
And they want to get one[00:03:22]
'Cause they think the sh*t's cool[00:03:23]
Not knowin' we really just protectin' ourselves[00:03:25]
We entertainers of course[00:03:27]
The sh*t's affectin' our sales[00:03:29]
You ignoramus but music is reflection of self[00:03:30]
We just explain' it and then[00:03:33]
We get our checks in the mail[00:03:34]
It's f**ked up ain't it how[00:03:36]
We can come from practically[00:03:37]
Nothin' to bein' able to[00:03:38]
Have any f**kin' thing that we wanted[00:03:40]
That's why we sing for these kids[00:03:42]
Who don't have a thing[00:03:43]
Except for a dream and a f**kin' rap magazine[00:03:45]
Who post pin' up pictures on they walls all day long[00:03:47]
Idolize they favorite rappers and know all they songs[00:03:51]
Or for anyone who's ever been through sh*t in they lives[00:03:53]
'Til they sit and they cry at night wishin' they'd die[00:03:57]
'Til they throw on a rap record[00:03:59]
And they sit and they vibe[00:04:01]
We're nothin' to you but[00:04:02]
We're the f**kin' sh*t in they eyes[00:04:03]
That's why we seize the moment[00:04:05]
Try to freeze it and own it[00:04:07]
Squeeze it and hold it[00:04:08]
'Cause we consider these minutes golden[00:04:09]
And maybe they'll admit it when we're gone[00:04:11]
Just let our spiritslive on[00:04:13]
Through our lyrics[00:04:15]
That you hear in our songs and we can[00:04:15]
Sing with me sing[00:04:18]
Sing for the year sing it[00:04:19]
Sing for the laughter sing for the tear c'mon[00:04:20]
Sing it with me just for today[00:04:23]
Maybe tomorrow the good lord will take you away[00:04:26]
Sing with me sing[00:04:35]
Sing for the year sing it[00:04:36]
Sing for the laughter sing for the tear c'mon[00:04:38]
Sing it with me just for today[00:04:41]
Maybe tomorrow the good lord will take you away[00:04:44]
