Deep in the mind that wide opens
Right here we stand alive, we live focused
We open- minded, still we die hopeless
With our pride broken and bullet holes
covered where we stay at
And everybody's playing for keeps,
most people pray that
We all make it up out this godforsaken
place that we've been all faced with
We take our chances but they all wasted
And once again you see me
(marching, mobbing)
But how long must I continue to see my
homies dodgin these marksmen
The whole nine put on the line but never in
mind to become the head sergeant
We all targets, the votes are in,
but they ain't ours
We got these politicians running their
game to regain power
While our whole black
community sours
Crime rate towers,
plagued by white powders
And they claim to helping us to
clean up our community
But ain't no open opportunities, impunity
Is what these demons use to regulate
We keep in mind we can run but we can't hide
cause the streets we walk are never safe
Still all my shattered hopes and
dreams re main scattered
Broken into thousands of pieces,
smashed and tattered
But it don't matter,
hipocrisy in your democracy
Is stopping me,
so I'm retaliating properly
Theologically, society has got
me pressured by the hate
And Heaven knows I have faith,
I have faith
Rudely awaken from this bad dream
Thinking my conscience wants to tell me something
because of these bad things
(Past things) got me in the
center of these mad dreams
(Flashing) homicidal
? fatal slashings
Now I'm asking: explain to me these
visionaries Brad's seen
(Past things) sad things killed
him cause he had dreams
(A sad scene) but all I ever
wanted was my mind back
Now I'm that nigga trying to find
out where his mind's at
The time that it took myself to
figure out my mind's gone
My mind crack, slide back,
look at all the time gone
Rewind back, comeback,
understand my life gon' make these cuts that won't change
But things look so strange,
the plague�
I gots to get myself up out the frame
Try to maintain the same game
flipping 10 and flame Jane
A damn shame,
people gots to always check your background
To jack now, come jack now and
I'ma leave you flat down
Come back now or back down, homie,
this is always all day
(Killer) in these dark
and lonely hallways
Cause all they wanna see is all us
brothers boxed up in caskets
With plastic bags in every
bathroom getting blasted
It's drastic, mama help me calm
down cause your son's sick
Don't watch me get gunned
down for the dumb shit
Then the gun click and now I see
the other side of black space
[Chorus] New
day brings about change,
everybody's searching for the light
The daydream schemes of living life
Has got us tossed up,
believing we controlling our motions
Got the answer in space beside
the view behind the ocean
And ad apting to the everyday
struggle's got us stressed
Cause the fact we know we here one
day and could die the next
You've insisted to take
equipment to the solar system
Trying to ensure your sole existence
Now tell me: do you think
that when the bang goes boom
You can pack up all your things
and aim for the moon?
It's unlikely, but you might be equipped
with with proceeds to save lives
But you die when the King say die
You can race it but you can't shake it,
stop trying
Try to hide it, cause you can't face
it but you're born dying
God, please forgive us cause
we're human not perfect
And the devil try to fronting
but it's not working
How can we all sit suspended in space
Just spinning in place and
ain't extended in faith
Man, wait
