[glow=red,2,300]Wake up my brothas and sistahs
Why you holding up corners?
Why you providing lethal weapons to a declining generation
Te vials you push
Should very well be books
Or didn't you know education is at an all time low
It's a state of emergency
As the prisons grow!
Reclaim your dignity, pride and respect
Stop telling other dealers you've got their backs
This scenario you're living is getting kinda wack
Your generation is suffering
'Cause they're dying from your crack
Children everywhere in desperate need
'Cause their parents can't stop buyin your weed
Then you take their money and go buy your boys forties
At least take that bloody chump change and support your shorties
You're becoming a disgrace to our powerful nation
What happened to the movement?
Where's the dedication?
Don't you know we're living in isolation?
Put down your guns and ammunition
Take some initiative and show some ambition
Stop teaching how to get a thrill from a quick kill
Life is not a game, its the real drill
As others proceed to give you what you fundamentally need
Humble your souls and take gracious heed
Where you gonna be thirty years from now?
You'll be dead or in the system still wondering how
Your generation is a precious breed
Martin, Malcom, and Garvey planted the seed
If they came back today
I don't think they'd stay
They'd just drop their heads and let them sway
Then ya'll wanna gripe about the war in Iraq
You don't even vote,
So I ain't got your back!
If you'd exercise your rights
Democrats would be leading the fight
And our soldiers would be home
Not heading towards the light
This generation is declining more and more each day
And still you continue to do things your way
You're having sex repeatedly with no protection
Just 'cause your wee-wee has an uncontrollable erection
Too many fatherless children due to denial
Too many motherless children due to AIDS trials
Wake up my Queens and Kings
Claim our streets back
It's way past time to
Get this generation on track!
