Tomorrow

Our perspective of society is based on environment
For those under the poverty line no such thing as retirement

We lucky if we live to see 50... Age 25 is a miracle
Should I stop now or maybe this is to lyrical
Commercials telling us to drop it like it hot for some cereal
Or selling us out for corporate greed to sell materials

First they took our minds and then took the cultures
No family history so we feed off each other killing our own like vultures

Took our imagination let those with the money think for us
We OD on the love of sex money and drugs... the consequences are enormous

Before I check anyone I check myself
At times I too am brainwashed by the lights of the white man’s wealth

Straining to block reality as I listen to them rap about bricks
The same thing that got us locked in prison and fiends chasseing they next fix

Sports and entertainment the only way to make it
Red pill blue pill life is more than the matrix
Took our leaders out so ghetto love needs a face lift
Guidance to remind them every day that they body is sacred

How much? yeah you... how much for your soul?
Will it still be priceless when the world gets cold?

Love live life struggle now for tomorrow
The only way it’s promised is if we plan through the sorrow…
