[It's been too hard living
But I'm afraid to die
'Cause I don't know what's up there
Beyond the sky(Sam Cooke)
It’s been a long time thuggin
I’m wondering when change is going to come
It’s been a long time coming
When is change going to come
I believe change is going to come
[Is it not enough that we started from nothin
Fighting and fussin
Running our heads into the walls
Hoping we run into somethin
Lord deliver us from all the chaos
these muthafuckas continue to play us
Iivin in this life that’s so dangerous
Mama tried to raise us right
Tried to hold us tight
But being broke ain’t no joke
So we running to the street life
Money makes a difference player
There’s only winners and the takers
And Both will send you to your maker
[Chorus]
It’s been so hard living and I’m afraid to die
Dear Lord what’s on the other side
It’s been a long time thuggin but I believe change is going to come
[Verse]
I was exposed to this thug life chosen to control my
Environment that destroys life
Who’s right/ two sides /who hate why /when we both from the same kind
Play my/music loud enough till it feels right
Let the homies in the hood explain why
We all fighting for a defeated life
Educate my people till our social status is equal
This the prequel to the sequel of my rejuvenated people
Change is coming we fighting not running
