There are two types of people in this world Those who can survive it, and those who cannot This life is not easy, and God will not spare any mercy on you If you want to survive, you must not fear pain You will fight You will kill You will bleed And you will suffer Your suffering may become so unbearable that you may wish you were never born You can take your life if you so choose, but remember This life is not a vacuum There will be consequences to your every decision You will held accountable for every step, every action, every syllable you utter Your life may end as soon as you start it Or you might get lucky You might be blessed with caring parents A supportive commnity True love Genuine friendships Great genetics Economic prosperity A clear identity A clear purpose But remember No matter what happens No matter what you believe, no matter Your race, your wealth, your social status or anything else You can't escape death It's a crazy life It gives so much just to take it right I try to keep my faith in sight But some days all I feel is pain inside God, mercy me I just really hope that the air I breathe Is worth something, dare I seek to make change in society I fight for peace, I fight for peace Yeah I fight for peace, but I don't know why All I ever see on the news is lies All I ever see is revenge and hate And they stack it all up on your dinner plate We build walls just to tear us apart Steal from each other, kill one another Use our brothers, ignore our mothers when they give us advice But then we cry at the funeral why Tell me why we always gotta fight Tell me why I cannot sleep at night Tell me why my demons never die Tell me why we never empathize Why we always brag about the clothes Why we gotta use the word 'hoe' Why we never think outside of the box Why the whitest never listen to Pac Why the blackest never listen to Bach It's so obvious that the clock is ticking for both So to close the gap we should give it a shot So forget-me-not Forgive me now for the words I jot My life reflects the world I see A deeply flawed human so mercy me My life reflects the world I see A deeply flawed human so mercy me We fall down, but we get up We fall down, but we get up We fall down, but we get up Yeah, yeah We fall down, but we get up We fall down, but we get up We fall down, but we get up Yeah, yeah The good die young Can't hold my peace, won't bite my tongue The world I know has just begun to wake up And it can't be undone Pray for us and all our sins Pray for all the hurt we tend to make worse Our curse is our own demise Bow my head, close my eyes The good die young Can't hold my peace, won't bite my tongue The world I know has just begun to wake up And it can't be undone Pray for us and all our sins Pray for all the hurt we tend to make worse Our curse is our own demise Bow my head, close my eyes like...
