When I open my eyes I can't help but close 'em back in reaction To everything I see Melanated people out there Dying to be free I gotta stick up for my brothers and All my sisters getting kidnapped And stuffed into vans With no description makes me sick man What's the country becoming When they've got money for weapons But not food for the stomach Like 2Pac said I just repeat it in a different way Because it's just the same shit But a different day We gotta get ourselves together now Work to be better We have to do more than just making posts Or writing a letter. I had to put my ego aside Had to get rid of the denial Had to swallow my pride Whenever I'm looking for answers I just look at the sky And ask the big one up there Why so many people have to die? And I, I know I'll prolly never Get an answer back because They'll tell me that answer is inside And I, I keep on looking but It's lost in my mind Let the light reveal the truth Because we're runnin' out of time, yeah And I know it's hard sometimes But you gotta get through it So you see the light Everybody want's to make it To the top that's right But people shouldn't make it How they value their life no So build a foundation ground up Stop tryin' to share water from an empty cup And when the pressure comes down And you're feelin' stuck Let your spirit shine through No you don't need luck My eyes, they don't lie, they can't hide Can't hide what I feel inside And I know that some day I'll be fine Everything that I need will be provided And I'll tell you right now I'll never sell my soul No I don't need money Got a heart of gold Material things that are bought and sold No, they don't really matter Can't take 'em when you go And raise your hands if you had a hard life Time to make some plans No more talking 'bout that "street life" Think about your kids Or your husband or your sweet wife And if it's only you then You're the only thing you need That's right Because when I open my eyes I can't help but close 'em back when I see so many living a lie Are you working for a living Or just working 'till you die Find the passion that is missing In your life if you decide And if you want a hint Just follow the love It's the best guide, a gift Given from above You gotta find the right fit Just like a glove Always remember that You are more than enough And I know the bar seems high Floatin' in the sky like a satellite Don't let the height get to ya Stop living in fright Gotta do what you love from Day into the night My eyes, they don't lie, they can't hide Can't hide what I feel inside And I know that some day I'll be fine Everything that I need will be provided And I'll tell you right now I'll never sell my soul No I don't need money Got a heart of gold Material things that are bought and sold No, they don't really matter Can't take 'em when you go My eyes, they don't lie, they can't hide Can't hide what I feel inside And I know that some day I'll be fine Everything that I need will be provided My eyes, they don't lie, they can't hide Can't hide what I feel inside And I know that some day I'll be fine Everything that I need will be provided
