[00:12.40]Come on come on
[00:16.86]I see no changes wake up in the morning and I ask myself
[00:18.90]is life worth living should I blast myself?
[00:21.07]I'm tired of bein' poor & even worse I'm black
[00:23.78]my stomach hurts so I'm lookin' for a purse to snatch
[00:25.53]Cops give a damn about a negro
[00:27.88]pull the trigger kill a ***** he's a hero
[00:30.16]Give the crack to the kids who the hell cares
[00:32.26]one less hungry mouth on the welfare
[00:34.56]First ship 'em **** & let 'em deal the brothers
[00:36.42]give 'em guns step back watch 'em kill each other
[00:38.84]It's time to fight back that's what Huey said
[00:40.99]2 shots in the dark now Huey's dead
[00:42.35]I got love for my brother but we can never go nowhere
[00:45.17]unless we share with each other
[00:46.63]We gotta start makin' changes
[00:48.14]learn to see me as a brother instead of 2 distant strangers
[00:51.17]and that's how it's supposed to be
[00:53.47]How can the Devil take a brother if he's close to me?
[00:55.29]I'd love to go back to when we played as kids
[00:58.47]but things changed, and that's the way it is
[01:01.30]Bridge w/ changing ad libs]
[01:02.49]Come on come on
[01:03.21]That's just the way it is

[01:31.93]I see no changes all I see is racist faces
[01:36.80]misplaced hate makes disgrace to races
[01:38.86]We under I wonder what it takes to make this
[01:41.04]one better place, let's erase the wasted
[01:42.63]Take the evil out the people they'll be acting right
[01:45.74]'cause both black and white is smokin' crack tonight
[01:47.61]and only time we chill is when we kill each other
[01:50.07]it takes skill to be real, time to heal each other
[01:52.36]And although it seems heaven sent
[01:53.78]We ain't ready, to see a black President, uhh
[01:56.52]It ain't a secret don't conceal the fact
[01:58.20]the penitentiary's packed, and it's filled with blacks
[02:01.06]But some things will never change
[02:02.45]try to show another way but you stayin' in the **** game
[02:05.28]Now tell me what's a mother to do
[02:07.08]bein' real don't appeal to the brother in you
[02:09.52]You gotta operate the easy way
[02:11.17]"I made a G today" But you made it in a sleazy way
[02:13.82]sellin' crack to the kid. " I gotta get paid,"
[02:16.11]Well hey, well that's the way it is
[02:22.42]Bridge]
[02:22.62]Talking:]
[02:23.13]
[02:52.15]We gotta make a change...
[02:53.01]It's time for us as a people to start makin' some changes.
[02:56.95]Let's change the way we eat, let's change the way we live
[03:01.29]and let's change the way we treat each other.
[03:03.73]You see the old way wasn't working so it's on us to do
[03:06.23]what we gotta do, to survive.
[03:08.07]3]
[03:09.14]And still I see no changes can't a brother get a little peace
[03:11.35]It's war on the streets & the war in the Middle East
[03:13.83]Instead of war on poverty they got a war on drugs
[03:16.85]so the police can bother me
[03:18.47]And I ain't never did a crime I ain't have to do
[03:21.14]But now I'm back with the blacks givin' it back to you
[03:23.21]Don't let 'em jack you up, back you up,
[03:25.26]crack you up and pimp slap you up
[03:27.23]You gotta learn to hold ya own
[03:28.93]they get jealous when they see ya with ya mobile phone
[03:30.93]But tell the cops they can't touch this
[03:33.18]I don't trust this when they try to rush I bust this
[03:35.38]That's the sound of my tool you say it ain't cool
[03:38.33]my mama didn't raise no fool
[03:40.31]And as long as I stay black I gotta stay strapped
[03:42.43]& I never get to lay back
[03:44.51]'Cause I always got to worry 'bout the pay backs
[03:46.88]some buck that I roughed up way back
[03:49.06]comin' back after all these years
[03:50.51]rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat that's the way it is uhh
[03:55.41]Bridge 'til fade]
