[Curtis Mayfield:]
"People get ready, there's a train comin' You don't need no baggage, you just get on board"
Okay, yeah
Poverty stricken ghetto livin', broken bottles and shattered dreams
Child mothers and pregnant teens
Crack fiends lookin like what the fuck
Tryna reach Nirvana
Always coming up a couple bucks
Short
Yeah, times gon change
[Verse 1:]
Look listen, observe, Yo
Poverty stricken ghetto livin', broken bottles and shattered dreams
Child mothers and pregnant teens
Crack fiends lookin like what the fuck, tryna reach Nirvana
Always coming up a couple bucks short
Every religion out there recruit fresh blood for their cause
Those who ain't behind bars give your life for my pockets and a mystery God
But a few got the mystery solved, and they afraid of them
Attacking those who build self in the pin
The hunt is on for laws, book of life
See cyphers is trife and intentional, infaticly savage
Originals breaking trust for their puppet masters
Ask why? These times are drastic
Ask why? These bastards build rockets to escape the madness
Set in motion by the rich share croppers and slave masters
Treating our birthright like some dime store hoe
The world is yours, forget what they're sayin' troop
I'm sayin' dude, now's the time to stand firm and fight for the truth
Take the planet back (yeah) [?] the youth
Free the dome and find a motherfuckin' clue
We masters of the universe
The world is yours, forget what they're sayin' troop
I'm sayin' dude, now's the time to stand firm and fight for the truth
Take the planet back (yeah, quick) [?] the youth
Free the dome and find a motherfuckin' clue
We masters of the universe
[Verse 2:]
As I [?] my focus is better in my situation
I don't even deal with niggas now, dawg cuz they be fake and
I got money moves that I need to be makin'
Ain't got time for the belly achin' and drama niggas be bringin'
Plan is this is calisthenic, gotta get it [?] mind on math (ha!)
Physical presented at its most excellent, heaven sent
Born Equality, the great, Give enemies no debate
Run up on me I break your face and drag it
I see thru cloak and dagger to the core of any obstacle and find the answer
Now swallow that shit
[?]
Watch me glow, wisdom since I was a young buck bro
Mama dukes used to say "you weren't raised to follow
Get your dough, but yo wait don't sell your soul And you gon make it
Walk with your head high and keep brushing off these haters."
The world is yours, forget what they're sayin' troop
I'm sayin' dude, now's the time to stand firm and fight for the truth
(The world is yours dude) Take the planet back
