Some of Us

Some of us live away from trees
Like we embrace the heat, humidity steals the air that we breathe
Please, somebody see that some of us need to look at the sea in order to see the order of we
This is the natural order of things
The water, the breeze, we have replaced with mortar and street
Brick and steel is all that I see
The sky is no more, the moon is deceased
The children are dying
Parеnts apparently killed ‘em, wеre blind
Merely events, are signs of the times
Somebody help me rewind the times
‘cause I'd rather go back, go to those shacks that Africa had
That was before the shackles that crack, that baffled us blacks, attacking our caps
‘cause some of us asked, if some of us had, the sum of our traps
With some of us lack the courage we have, the courage to stand
Some of us fear tomorrow today
Seeking to borrow a day
From faith we pray tomorrow away
‘cause see, some of us hate the uncertainty the future will bring
Figure by now we used to this thing
Some of us are, but few will relate
Some of us live for those who died
And still some of us feel to kill is life and close to God
They lied, never our will
Worship the idol of death and not kill
This is the songs of blessings I yield
Message I spill is left in my will
Will some of us learn?
Some of us will, some will just burn
Some will see summer forever deserved
Others above the heavens reserved
Legends of earth, present with us, their presence is heard
Essence of love will ever return
Some of us live in records and verse
Some of us say there isn’t a God
Some of us listen for God
When silence occurs, we're pissed at the sky
Guess some of us God created
Some of us, God is our creation
Sculpted a fear from our frustration
Much of our thoughts designed of satan
‘cause some of us hate the space in between
Can't erase the serene
Naked it seems, we’re slaves to machines
There was a day when we dreamed
Today our imagination's a dream
They who believe are greatest of beings
They who are doubtful, they are the least
