Rain ft. Bre Free Lyrics

Man this shit hot shit take me back

To the real struggle man growing up in the hood

My older sisters jammin this motherfucka

We don't have shit we had music though

That real fucking struggle listen

The institution says that we lack inspiration

But that just inflates us with more indignation

So I got an interjection intended for innovation

The initiative is to be inquisitive

Learn what you can make your knowledge

Informative in spite of the odds

Ensure integrity the ghetto internment

Got our life in jeopardy

And can't forget injustices

The government been doing

Big and Pac's murder cases still inconclusive

Little indecisiveness for Tookie's execution

Got me going insane man I feel there's no solution

One nation under God indivisible

So I'm being indiscrete ghetto hunger's invisible

They try to glorify this life, make it look so cool

Until you see your homie drop out of middle school

To sell dope and his first customer is his mom

And As you walk across the street

On the way home you see your other homies

Mom, she been drinking all day

She out in the lawn, screaming at nobody

But her own demons

And you go in the house and your mom

Praying with the oil Anointing every doorway

Sometime I like to reminisce

Back before Tupac died in 96

And I don't even gotta wonder

How it came to this

They got us in a trap

And ya style is the evidence

And even though it aint coo to be intelligent

Always remember think bigger than an elephant

Like Obama bumpin Eric B for president

We back to the future on some hip hop politics

Public Enemy, perception is reality

But in the hood all we see are heroes or casualties

Guess its to me to become one or the other

Believe you're coming for me

If you're coming for my brother

And if you're coming for us

Then that means we're coming for you

And we never stop to ask

What are we comin to? when you've done all u can

What's a man to do? Some questions

You never get answer to

Struggles many don't know what it is

But many do; if you ever struggled in life

You understand why we continue to fight

Why we choose to learn

And if you're anything like us

To break generational curses

To speak life not hate

Because there is power in the tongue

So as the air flows through my lungs

I will use my powers to empower our people

If not us than who? we got to do better

Let's stop this vicious cycle

Come together we are stronger together

Than apart, unity is what they are afraid of

Let's build up one another, heal

And spread the greatest gift of all

Which is love, let that sink in
