DRICH:

Aight, kids, they’re

Laughin’ and callin’, slippin’ and fallin’, got that

Devil-may-care laid-back kind of air

Runnin back to momma at the end of the day

Shirt and hands, they’re brown, but her hair, that’s grey

Kids, they so relaxed, take things easy like a burglar

Mom cutting the grass, call that nature vs. nurture

Outside, a paradise, nightime, catchin’ fireflies

Inside, bakin cookies and makin memories

Mom asks ‘who took the cookies’? my palms get sweaty

Said ‘um, daddy did it’ but i was lyin’ like serengeti

At school: columbus discovered america

White van with candy? hell yeah, sign me up

When i grow up, be whatever i want to be

Firefighter, astronaut, soldier across the sea

Die for my country, make everybody proud of me

Can’t wait till i see what they see, i lived free

RAYJAY:

But while they on the street playin’; they should be prayin’

Cuz they need to eat somethin’, and the sky don’t rain bread;

Even when the sun shines, it feels like it’s pouring

Doubt and fear falling down from the sky like it’s storming

Triads in Chinatown, Famine in Jamestown

Corruption in Capetown, Ebola in Yo Town

Peaceful protests muted, Good men persecuted

All yo friends jumpsuited, freedom executed

It’s an inconvenient truth that sea levels are rising

Media makin bank by sensationalizing

I’m a riot in the sheets like there’s riots in middle east

Hey, kid, you want peace? stay off the streets

Mom’s dead covered in red, no one home dad has fled;

AIDS has ruined grandma, Grandpa gets called a pill head

Tied down by suffering and paralyzed by fear

Can't wake up from a nightmare when you’re already here

APOT:

So the world’s not great, with that I’ll agree

But you can’t just wait, can’t just sit and concede

Cause at any rate, it’s not just fate

Don’t lie in wait, you must dictate

How life goes, how life is lived

Don’t give up, if you’re just a kid

Problems have solutions

Just need resolution

There’s no perfect operation

But the worst thing’s resignation

Be your inspiration

Keep that dedication

Don’t quit your aspirations

Be the hope of your generation

When you look and see an issue, gotta get up and fight it

You gotta change the world, not just the climate

Put an end to global warming, man just tear it apart

Because the only warm thing should be the warmth in your heart

Not the fire of your hatred, keep a happy attitude

You should never say never, only the Sith use absolutes

So sit up and smile, there’s no need to be glum

When you believe in yourself, you can always overcome
