Changes
Come on come on
I see no changes wake up in the morning and I ask myself
is life worth living should I blast myself?
I'm tired of bein' poor & even worse I'm black
my stomach hurts so I'm lookin' for a purse to snatch
Cops give a damn about a negro
pull the trigger kill a nigga he's a hero
Give the crack to the kids who the hell cares
one less ugly mouth on the welfare
First ship 'em dope & let 'em deal the brothers
give 'em guns step back watch 'em kill each other
It's time to fight back that's what Huey said
2 shots in the dark now Huey's dead
I got love for my brother but we can never go nowhere
unless we share with each other
We gotta start makin' changes
learn to see me as a brother instead of 2 distant strangers
and that's how it's supposed to be
How can the Devil take a brother if he's close to me?
I'd love to go back to when we played as kids
but things changed, and that's the way it is
(Bridge) x2 *with changing ad libs*
Come on come on
That's just the way it is
Things'll never be the same
That's just the way it is
aww yeah
I see no changes all I see is racist faces
misplaced hate makes disgrace to races
We under I wonder what it takes to make this
one better place, let's erase the wasted
Take the evil out the people they'll be acting right
'cause both black and white is smokin' crack tonight
and only time we chill is when we kill each other
it takes skill to be real, time to heal each other
And although it seems heaven sent
We ain't ready, to see a black President, uhh
It ain't a secret don't conceal the fact
the penitentiary's packed, and it's filled with blacks
But some things will never change
try to show another way but you stayin' in the dope game
Now tell me what's a mother to do
bein' real don't appeal to the brother in you
You gotta operate the easy way
"I made a G today" But you made it in a sleazy way
sellin' crack to the kid. " I gotta get paid,"
Well hey, well that's the way it is
(Bridge) x2
*Talking*
We gotta make a change...
It's time for us as a people to start makin' some changes.
Let's change the way we eat, let's change the way we live
and let's change the way we treat each other.
You see the old way wasn't working so it's on us to do
what we gotta do, to survive.
And still I see no changes can't a brother get a little peace
It's war on the streets & the war in the Middle East
Instead of war on poverty they got a war on drugs
so the police can bother me
And I ain't never did a crime I ain't have to do
But now I'm back with the blacks givin' it back to you
Don't let 'em jack you up, back you up,
crack you up and pimp slap you up
You gotta learn to hold ya own
they get jealous when they see ya with ya mobile phone
But tell the cops they can't touch this
I don't trust this when they try to rush I bust this
That's the sound of my tool you say it ain't cool
my mama didn't raise no fool
And as long as I stay black I gotta stay strapped
& I never get to lay back
'Cause I always got to worry 'bout the pay backs
some buck that I roughed up way back
comin' back after all these years
rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat that's the way it is uhh
(Bridge till fade...)

What y'all want?)
Unconditional Love (no doubt)
Talking bout the stuff that don't wear off
It don't fade
It'll last for all these crazy days
These crazy nights
Whether you wrong or you right
I'm a still love you
Still feel you
Still there for you
No matter what (hehe)
You will always be in my heart
With unconditional love
Come listen to my truest thoughts, my truest feelings
All my peers doing years beyond drug dealing
How many caskets can we witness Before we
see it's hard to live This life without God, so we
must ask forgiveness Ask mama why God
deserved to die Witness the tears falling free
from my eyes Before she could reply Though
we were born without a silver spoon My broken
down TV, show cartoons in my living room (hey)
One day I hope to make it A player in this game
Mama don't cry, long as we try Maybe things change
Perhaps it's just a fantasy A life where we don't
need no welfare Shit with our whole family Maybe
it's me that caused it The fighting and the hurting
In my room crying cause I didn't want to be a
burden Watch mama open up her arms to hugging
And I ain't worried bout a damn thang, with
unconditionl love
Chorus: 2x
In this game the lesson's in your eyes to see
Though things change, the future's still inside of me
We must remember that tomorrow comes
after the dark So you will always be in my heart,
with unconditional love
Verse Two:
Just got the message you've been calling all
week Been out here hustling on these streets,
ain't had a chance to speak But you know, with
you and me it's on G We could never be enemies,
cause you been such a good friend to me Where
would I be without my dogs No wonder why when
times get hard Cause it ain't easy being who we
are Driven by my ambitions, desire higher positions
So I proceed to make Gs, eternally in my mission
Is to be more than just a rap musician The elevation
of today's generation If could make 'em listen
Prison ain't what we need, no longer stuck in
greed Time to play and strategize, my family's
gotta eat When we make somethin out of nothing
No pleasure in the suffering, neighborhood would
be good If they could cut out all the busting The
liquor and the weed the cussing Sending love out
to my block The struggle never stops
(unconditional love)
Chorus
Verse Three:
I'll probably never understand ya ways With
everyday I swear I hear ya Trying to change
your ways while gettin paid at the same time
Just had a baby with the same eyes
Something inside, please let me die these
are strange times How come I never made it
Maybe it's the way the played it in my heart I
knew one day I gotta be a star My hopes and
all my wishes So many vivid pictures, and all
the currency I'll never even get to see This fast
life soon shatter us Cause after all the lights and
screams Nothing but my dreams matter Hoping
for better days Maybe a peaceful night, baby
don't cry Cause everythang gonna be alright
Just lay your head on my shoulder Don't worry
bout a thang baby Girl I'm a soldier (huh) Never
treated me bad, no matter who I was You still
came with that, unconditional love
Chorus 3x until fade
