For my brothers and sisters,
It seems we've been imprisoned by venomous literature,
by history's imagery where the positive figures seen then found shot, well, there goes the neighborhood,
Misbehavior's prominent and "thuggin" is the way we do it but,
to transfer that same energy into positivity we may dilute this poisonous solution,
Brewin' since the ages past,
Formed where once a million marched,
But now for luxury or cash,
We won't confront the holder but kill each other,
while many look and laugh saying,
"ya'll some silly ass ni**@s,"
see most remember,
back when black was chains that bind and lock,
funny now we'll rob to rock the biggest chain on "the block",
and funnier is we seem to change none but mad at someone else like they owe us some,
JUST,
for one second lets focus on us man,
leave well enough alone? NO well enough's in need of discussion,
Society is sick, my brother, but you STILL "leakin'" and "bustin'",
Already produced four illegitimate bastards and haven't did ONE nothing!
Some misguided mothers are no better having kids now like it's a hustle,
we're then facing a runaway jury and a female judge to flex her muscle,
our kids are getting worse, the law says we can't touch 'em,
but what happened to entire unified villages to raise just one young one,
It seems now we have a better idea,
we'll sell these drugs among one,
we'll even hijack their Equifax and put our utilities on one,
alot of us are catching a contact high before we read or write numbers,
With President Roosevelt's mention of welfare and these drugs is good reason our father's were stolen from us,
So "mackin's" natural ability seeing your mother work a street corner,
Rap is the only dream so one can stack and buy three hummers,
C'mon people,
Lets imagine a better team effort for all of us who struggle,
put all those resources together and pull our people out of these mental gutters,
Brothers and sisters it seems the life we're choosing,
WE'RE LOSING, I think it's time to stop it,
leave well enough alone? Well enough is NO longer an option
