Friends: how many have 'em?
How long before they split like atoms?
Don't ask me, but what I do stand behind
Is someone havin' your back seems hard to find.
I'm livin' in times where my daughters are found around
Kids who can't afford thinking caps...
But always found drinkin' raps and eatin' off beats,
Claimin' laws of the streets. But who made the laws?
Everybody playin' rebel with no sign of a cause.
Y'all really think Ms. Shakur, or Ms. Wallace,
Or Ms. Mizell from out in Hollis
Wouldn't exchange the love and fame
Attached to their loved ones' names
Just to have 'em still alive in their arms?
On a serious note, we don't think we're trying to be so different, it's just that everyone else is trying to be same.
Though the meek shall inherit the earth, but don't forget:
The poor are the ones who inherit the debt.
