Generate meaning
1
Yeah, expect the unexpected
2
It's kinda hard to keep faith in the things that you do
3
When everybody turns their back on you
4
It's kinda hard to keep faith in the things that you do
5
When everybody turns their back on you
6
It's kinda hard to keep faith in the things that you do
7
When everybody turns their back on you
8
It's kinda hard to keep faith in the things that you do
9
When everybody turns their back
10
Yeah, I know a city that's surrounded by a beautiful beach
11
The economy boosted by the drugs they move in the street
12
More clearer than the crystal sky, blue as the beast
13
But the people ain't got shoes for they feet or food to eat
14
So they hurtin' but what's for certain you can get you some heat
15
And over beef, you laid to rest like you was gettin' some sleep
16
Where the little kids get ammunition, word, you can't get no nutrition
17
Or any type of suitable livin' condition
18
Listen, they shoot you over that paper, it's just survivalist human nature
19
To put you out of your misery like euthanasia, yeah
20
Don't let them fool you, we ain't different than the youth in Asia
21
Africa and Europe, it's a small world, we truly neighbors
22
If they the Third World, then who the first to get to Heaven?
23
I know it's hard but who does God choose to go through it, worst
24
Usually it's the prophets, ask a cat what really matters, nowadays
25
Usually, it's his pockets
26
We gotta get back to what really matters, word
27
We gotta search our soul to find out what we're after
28
The more I find my voice the more they try to make it harder
29
Mom and dad don't forget to warn your sons and daughters
30
About the nature of the world today, the nature of the world today
31
The nature of the world today, the nature of the world today
32
Word, don't nobody talk no more, they all text message
33
Drivin' and typin', not payin' attention, missin' they next exit
34
Dependin' on navigation, they never know where they're goin'
35
They're stayin' stuck in one spot, they're not growin'
36
I'm so over cryin', waitin' and hopin', playin' the lame game
37
The game changed me into 'A Different World' like Dwayne and Wayne
38
I'm gettin' high just to maintain, yeah
39
Take my music like a drug and drop the needle in the same vein
40
I get a rush like I'm tweekin' off blow
41
Except it ain't via the nose, it's from deep in my soul
42
The street slang, I be speakin' in code
43
Kick in the do's, freakin' the flow 'til the speakers explode
44
We in control, the people know I speak the truth
45
The power of my roots is thicker than sour sop
46
And they so strong they bustin' out the flower pot
47
Family tradition is to tell 'em you love 'em
48
While your family livin' from granny in the kitchen
49
The little man in prison
50
We gotta get back to what really matters
51
We gotta search our soul to find out what we're after
52
The more I find my voice the more they try to make it harder
53
Mom and dad don't forget, to warn your sons and daughters
54
About the nature of the world today, the nature of the world today
55
The nature of the world today, the nature of the world today
56
It's kinda hard to keep faith in the things that you do
57
When everybody turns their back on you
58
It's kinda hard to keep faith in the things that you do
59
When everybody turns their back on you
60
It's kinda hard to keep faith in the things that you do
61
When everybody turns their back on you
62
It's kinda hard to keep faith in the things that you do
63
When everybody turns their back on you
64
I'm just tryin' to get back to what really matters
65
I'm tryin' to search my soul to find out what I'm after
66
But the more I find my voice the more they try to make it harder
67
So mom and dad don't forget to warn your sons and daughters
68
About the nature of the world today, the nature of the world today
69
The nature of the world today, the nature of the world today
70
Yeah, it's all natural, baby
71
It's how we put it, yeah
72
Yeah, Brooklyn to Tennessee
73
You goin' up with me
74
Yeah, yeah, break it down
