The problem with society's been how do we teach
And if they'll believe
We'll fight this battle for years to come
Till we only accept that we can stand on our own
Grandfather used his hands.
He worked them to the bone.
Provide his family with a happy home-- alone
Don't take your aggression out on me
My own man's all I meant to be
This common place so lazy, old, and tired.
All your ideas are so fuckin uninspired
Takes more than one idea,
More than one person to fight the fight
How many times have you taught and not conspired?
Don't wanna be, they never see
But don't call us the liars
We've walked these allies a thousand times
And scattered around a thousand lies
They are trying to hold you down
Your life may be hard, but keep your feet on the ground
Why can't I have the fun of thigns that others have?
The chance is there if you want it all that bad
So bad..
Don't take your aggression out on me
My own man's all I meant to be
This common place is so lazy, old, and tired
All your ideas are so fuckin uninspired
Takes more than one idea
More than one person to fight the fight
How many times have you taught and not conspired?
Don't try and get me confused(Cause I do understand)
That sometimes people need help(That they may need a)
Hand when there's problems going on
A thing you have to get straight(Is that you don't own my hand)
And I don't owe you a thing (So don't think about how)
Sorry you're feeling when they treat you so bad
This common place is so lazy, old, and tired
Are your ideas are so fuckin uninspired
Takes more than one idea
More than one person to fight the fight
How many times have you taught and not conspired?
And as a race, we look back and we've come so far
While some may conqure, the others had it so hard
But instead we just complain when there's no one for us to fight
I guess we're bored, and that's how we keep us occupied
Other
