Lyrics:
I'm a Credit to my community don't influence me
I deserve a deposit while u deserve a eulogy
Class is in session choose lesson or the truancy
You? Tax
intro: this is a public service announcement or call to action to the representatives of the black community we're in a state of emergency we need
unity in community
I said it's unity in community
I said it's unity in community
I said it's unity, let's commune
(Let me get it)
If you chase it runs,
in our community
Put aside petty differences
We need some unity seh we need some inity
So fathers come together now now
We've gotta save the youths
in our community
Tears fall from my eyes, to see the ghetto youth them die
Blood a run in a di gutter and blood a run in a the drain
Dem kill a next
like a cigarette
(I got ta) Rap in a style they can't figure yet
(I got ta) Teach the youth that they capable
(I got ta) Show the ghetto is escapable
like a cigarette
(I got ta) Rap in a style they can't figure yet
(I got ta) Teach the youth that they capable
(I got ta) Show the ghetto is escapable
the truth
We dealing with unemployment in the city black youth
usin rap, to put clothes on they back
No culture, or disciplined, way to act
But soon yo, we'll
about the youths around me
Still got a hole in my chest, I ain't got my youth around me
I hit my goals, they weren't impressed, they tried to snooze
continues
"But that is not all
Today you will join us all as adults in a
Community that has supported you
Since your birth
And this year is particularly
room in the slammers
From life sentences to death
Certificates over manners
Criminal minded hide behind the
Ploy of mantras upbringings create a monster
preach unity through my music and lyrics
In the hope that the youth hear it but some of you fear it
They got you thinking that the systems invincible
It's
The police are there not to
In our community not to
Promote our welfare
Or our security and our safety
But they are there to contain us
to the people
Dem hear this community oh yer!
Guntalk, in the neighbourhood
And the bad youths dem ain't up to no good
Wanna be gangsters in addy community
I say goodbye to my youth
Say goodbye to my youth
Say goodbye to my youth
My rhymes how I’m defining my truth
My escape when my minds in a loop say
a glimpse of your art is the community that you grew up in, so Recollection 1 was just kind of born out of a sense of wanting to prove myself
the ghetto youths I said let there be peace
In all the streets let there be peace
Societies in all communities
Pray for peace pray for peace
Everybody pray for
and crack niggas
For countless acts
This a war going on outside
No man is safe from
I'm Triuno, some call me a great one
Until Bush knee deep in my community
death
And end up callin’ it def
Feds to protect black crime from
The threat of community
Keeping truth from the youth
Have them shootin’ me
And at each
and do what you know is right!
Get active in your community
Get active in your community
Get active in your community
Take the power back, from Washington
niggas in the community think it's crummy
But I don't, neither does the youth cause we
Em-brace adversity it goes right with the race
And being that we
something out of nothing
Story of the slums young bucks and OGs
Block parties rent parties, just no tea ha,
Community youth leaders, teachers like Ujima
slash activists
Committed to devote their artistry
In empowering the community
Rather than those with none meaningful songs
Worthier to brainwashing
the community think it's crummy
But I don't, neither does the youth cause we
Em-brace adversity it goes right with the race
And being that we use it as a term
