[00:24.22]these ideas are nightmares for white parents
[00:27.02]whose worst fear is a child with dyed hair and who likes earrings
[00:29.92]like whatever they say has no bearing
[00:32.91]it's so scary in a house that allows no swearing
[00:35.91]to see him walkin' around wit his headphones blaring
[00:38.86]alone in his own zone, cold and he don't care
[00:41.60]he's a problem child
[00:42.81]what bothers him all comes out
[00:44.40]when he talks about his fuckin' dad walkin' out
[00:47.27]'cuz he hates him so bad that he blocks him out
[00:50.39]but if he ever saw him again, he'd prolly knock him out
[00:53.45]his thoughts are whacked
[00:54.49]he's mad so he's talkin' back
[00:56.18]talkin' black
[00:57.24]brainwashed from rock and rap
[00:59.03]he sags his pants
[01:00.43]dew-rags and a stockin' cap
[01:02.02]his stepfather hit him so he socked him back
[01:04.82]and broke his nose
[01:05.95]this house is a broken home
[01:07.72]there's no control
[01:08.83]he just lets his emotions go-chorus
[01:10.25]c`mon! sing with me (sing!)
[01:12.71]sing for the year (sing it!)
[01:14.31]sing for the laughter
[01:15.26]sing for the tear (c`mon!)
[01:16.76]sing it with me, just for today
[01:19.79]maybe tomorrow
[01:21.27]the good lord will take you away
[01:28.78]entertainment is changin'
[01:29.95]intertwinin' with gangstas
[01:31.65]in the land of the killers
[01:33.11]a sinner's mind is a sanctum
[01:34.58]only ya unholy
[01:35.82]only have one homey
[01:37.37]only this gun
[01:38.21]lonely,'cuz don't anyone know me
[01:40.37]but everybody just feels like they can relate
[01:43.04]i guess words are a motherfucka
[01:44.75]they can be great
[01:45.78]or they can degrade
[01:46.93]or even worse, they can teach hate
[01:48.76]it's like kids hang on every single statement we make
[01:51.68]like they worship us
[01:52.96]plus all the stores ship us platinum
[01:54.87]now how the fuck did this metamorphosis happen?
[01:57.78]from standin' on corners and porches just rappin'
[02:00.71]to havin' a fortune
[02:01.98]no more kissin' ass
[02:03.53]but then these critics crucify you
[02:05.17]journalists try to burn you
[02:06.58]fans turn on you
[02:07.95]attorneys all wanna turn at you
[02:09.64]to get their hands on every dime you have
[02:12.15]they want you to lose your mind every time you mad
[02:14.97]so they can try to make you out to look like a loose cannon
[02:18.28]any dispute, don't hesitate to produce handguns
[02:21.12]thats why these prosecutors wanna convict me
[02:23.92]strictly just to get me offa these streets quickly
[02:27.14]but all their kids been listen'n to me religiously
[02:30.08]so i'm signin' cds while police fingerprint me
[02:32.98]they're for the judge's daughter but his grudge is against me
[02:36.04]if i'm such a fuckin' menace this shit doesn't make sense b
[02:39.06]it's all political, if my music is literal and i'm a criminal,
[02:42.12]how the fuck can i raise a little girl?
[02:44.22]i couldn't, i wouldn't be fit to
[02:46.91]you're full of shit too, guerrera
[02:48.72]that was a fist that hit you!
[02:50.78]c`mon! sing with me (sing!)
[02:52.18]sing for the year (sing it!)
[02:53.78]sing for the laughter
[02:54.82]sing for the tear (c`mon!)
[02:56.83]sing it with me, just for today
[02:58.77]maybe tomorrow
[02:59.45]the good lord will take you away
[03:07.88]chorusthey say music can alter moods and talk to you
[03:10.22]but can it load a gun for you and cock it too?
[03:13.57]well if it can, then the next time you assault a dude
[03:16.55]just tell the judge it was my fault, and i'll get sued
[03:19.33]see what these kids do, is hear about us totin' pistols
[03:21.88]and they wanna get one,'cuz they think the shit's cool
[03:26.52]not knowin' we're really just protectin' ourselves
[03:28.45]We entertainas, of course this shit's affectin' our sales
[03:31.15]You ignoramus, but music is reflection of self
[03:33.99]We just explain it, and then we get our checks in the mail
[03:37.82]It's fucked up ain't it,how we can come from practically nothin'
[03:39.76]To bein' able to have any fuckin' thing that we wanted
[03:42.88]That's why we sing for these kids that don't have a thing
[03:45.93]Except for a dream and a fuckin' rap magazine
[03:48.60]Who post pin-up pictures on their walls all day long
[03:51.16]Idolize their favorite rappers and know all they songs
[03:54.58]Or for anyone who's ever been through shit in they lives
[03:57.67]So they sit and they cry at night, wishin they die
[04:00.61]Till they throw on a rap record, and they sit and they vibe
[04:03.83]We're nothin' to you, but we the fuckin' shit in they eyes
[04:06.72]That's why we sieze the moment, try to freeze it and own it
[04:09.68]Squeeze it and hold it, 'cuz we consider these minutes golden
[04:11.93]And maybe they'll admit it when we're gone
[04:15.18]Just let our spirits live on, through our lyrics that you hear in our songs
[04:18.42]And we can-
[04:19.40]C`mon! Sing with me (Sing!)
[04:20.48]sing for the year (Sing It!)
[04:21.73]Sing for the laughter
[04:22.54]sing for the tear (C`mon!)
[04:24.20]Sing it with me
[04:25.48]just for today
[04:26.76]Maybe tomorrow
[04:28.51]the good Lord will take you away
[04:35.95]C`mon! Sing with me (Sing!)
[04:37.65]sing for the year (Sing It!)
[04:39.17]Sing for the laughter
[04:40.19]sing for the tear (C`mon!)
[04:41.95]Sing it with me
[04:43.32]just for today
[04:44.04]Maybe tomorrow
[04:46.05]the good Lord will take you away
