[Verse 1]
You see a lot of shit when you're growing up
People broke as fuck they tell you doors are shut
To get a key is a soul sell but can't never let the past tell you that you're hopeless bud
And you ain't even gotta think about it cause
Once you get a clue gonna figure out, that all that
Lies in your way is difference
How you gonna let yourself be that simple
How you gonna
Uh, get it yourself
You know you're better than your demons, don't you kid yourself
You've been a kid yourself, and know that time will tell
Don't need help getting through you're gonna break your shell
Live your life play the game, peace and love you proclaim
Yeah calling all names come and see the king take aim
And all the queens throw shade to the expectations
Of a past set simply just to dim our flame
Talking to the love man
Real push real shove Imma take the thrown and
Never let the words of others get in the way
I'm talking sun heat coming with that flame all day
I, hit the stage grab the mic in my hand
You can feel the music in you let it show you the plan
You feel the power round the room when I stand up
Coming with a little bit of hope, for my people and land
Let me tell you
[Chorus]
This for my generation out here living life
Feeling nice, roll the dice
But it feels like, we're in decline
A world of hate, it can be hard to take
But just wait, don't you leave
I promise soon you will see, all you need
[Verse]
I gotta say it's the prime time
To get on up and do your thing and own it with pride
I'm, telling you it's better to be living in sync
Than watching all the world passing, tell me what do you think
So listen up young kings and the queens of the youth
Gotta lot of work to do and you know its the truth
You know the pasts looking grim, trust your voice and your roots
To improve, and build the future up from the blues
No excuse no dispute, It's time that we change
It's time we learn from mistakes and open up a new page
Our Mother Earth is in pain, at what cost, at what gain
We gotta see each other equally and severe this chain, uh
So don't sit, with your head in the clouds
Use your voice, raise it up, sing this shit sing it loud
A wise man once said, what goes around comes around
So be the change that you wanna see and make yourself proud
And I'm out
[Chorus x2]
This for my generation out here living life
Feeling nice, roll the dice
But it feels like, we're in decline
A world of hate, it can be hard to take
But just wait, don't you leave
I promise soon you will see, all you need
[Outro]
Struggling blind through puzzling times
Don't sit and rely on the clock to tell time
The future awaits, more lessons to take
More change for everyones sake
Change, because change can influence
A chain of most coveted gain
We'll severe the reigns of the past and make way
For our world and the future today
And generate
You see a lot of shit when you're growing up
People broke as fuck they tell you doors are shut
To get a key is a soul sell but can't never let the past tell you that you're hopeless bud
And you ain't even gotta think about it cause
Once you get a clue gonna figure out, that all that
