Beatnuts dead prez
Every time I look around I see so much drama going down
Every time I look around I see so much fakeness going down
Why I'ma be stingy when I can share
Why I'ma be hateful if I could care
Why would I hate my own and forsake my home
Why would I f**k around and get a joke my chrome
I wouldn't have to stick you if we all could eat
It wouldn't be no need for beef dying over streets
We don't even own anyway you could get bucked off any day
We behind enemy lines y'all still writing Hennessey rhymes
While I'm trying to get a good price for a nine
Feel like my life on the line
That's why a n***a be hype all the time
Ready for the revolution at the drop of a dime
I got a duty to have security for my niggas
A duty to serve the beautiful black sisters
A duty tom stand with anybody that's with us
And fully criticize all bulls hitters
There should be awards presented to niggas who fight back
Like Panther jackets or sisters who like gats
I'm a full blooded warrior ready for change
Recognize any soldier that's doing the same
Because I love who I am and that means everything to me
My life aint worth a damn unless I'm dealing with reality
When I look myself in the eyes it's just me
And I aint gotta tell nobody no lies I feel free
And I would rather deal with the truth than falsehood
Than being fake with my people and claiming it's all good
You can't run away from yourself so that's useless
If your word is bond then you don't have to make excuses
Every time I look around I see so much drama going down
Every time I look around I see so much fakeness going down
Yo as I sit and contemplate about the fate of my kids
If I die is the state goon snatch up my kids
City life no choice but to live by the knife
Put food on the table at whatever the price
My beautiful wife all the time cooking precise
When there ain't no meat she bless me
With the eggs and the rice
Never think twice I love you for the rest of my life
That's why I taught you how to shoot when situations get trifle
Save the children from the evil that we smell in the air
Used to being happy now the feeling is rare
I'm a soldier in the struggle just trying to prepare
'Cause when the revolution comes it ain't goon be fair
Yo it's the Beatnuts dead press we connect like Tetris
And we coming at the world on some high connections
So turn it up so we can drop these gems quick
If you on some bullshit then n***a get the EXIT
There's enough cash grass and ass here for you and me
You wanna be greedy saying f**k the community
Watch out 'cuz life's gonna change very soon you see
I really don't believe we could ever have unity
This shit is serious we all trying to have a mille stash
But love life 'cuz that's all a n***a really has
Love your fam 'cuz that's all you really have
And handle your biz and stop being a silly ass
Ayo it's getting getting it's getting getting it's getting kinda hectic
Starch burns so naturally thugs learn to stay vested
You need to learn what psycho les said
So treat others the same way if you wanna be respected
Every time I look around I see so much drama going down
Every time I look around I see so much fakeness going down
Live together
Feed each other feed each other
Die together die together
Love each other love each other
Eat together eat together
Show each other show each other
Fight together fight together
Know each other know each other
Live together
Feed each other feed each other
Die together die together
Love each other love each other
Eat together eat together
Show each other show each other
Fight together fight together
Know each other know each other
Every time I look around I see so much drama going down
Every time I look around I see so much fakeness going down
Every time I look around I see so much drama going down
Every time I look around I see so much fakeness going down
Brother brother there's too many of you dying
Bring the power back to the streets where the people live
Oh war is not the answer
Too many mothers crying oh this is a revolution yeah yeah yeah
