Living in this world

What’s happening…
Check it out
It’s critical; the situation is pitiful
Bear in mind you gotta find somethin’ spiritual
We never gain ‘cause we blame it on the system
You ougtha listen, whether muslim or cristian
Or any other type religion or creed
´Cause what we need is less greed
We can’t continue to kill ourselves
We gotta build and expand our wealth
So one more time, I’ll design a rhyme divine
To educate and elevate your mind
Nowadays we gotta fight to live
Human means we got a right to live
Human means we gotta fight to live
Without the homicide, without the genocide
Don’t tell me “let it slede.”
I’m feelin’ guettofied
So be a soldier of truth
Protect the lives of our youth

chorus

[guru]
What’s happening…
In the land of the free, home of the brave
Too many of us reach such early graves
They tell us to behave, but they don’t know
I ask how many officers will turn up corrupt
The governments don’t care; they pass the buck
I’m growin’ tired of the trikery
And the misery; it’s makin me kinda sick, you see
But now I meditate, so I can get it straight
My thoughts penetrate, so I control my fate
So be advised by the wise and conscious one
We take the easy way out, too often, son
We better get some kind of work ethic
Realize it, and correct it

chorus

[guru]
What’s happening…
From New York to L.A., dead children lay
Victims of an unfair society
But for those who are blessed
We must correct this mess, or disappear into nothingness
We’re living in the age of doom
How many teachers reach all the kids in the classroom?
The beast is stalking us, but there’s no stopping us
As long as we maintain the strength within us
‘Cause we’re winners descendants of the king
So get money, but spend it wisely
I get ill when the beats hypnotize me
Realize that the key
Is for each to master his own destiny
Deal with reality, and keep a tight focus
‘Cause there’s a lot we got to cope with
