The life you're living just might be different
Despite what you might be thinking, your life decisions
Could fight, but the night just thickens
and knifes your vision

I might be the light you're missing. My mic, You Listen

First off: need to act, man
Take everything that you learned
from this Liberal Media and toss it in the trash can
That garbage is probably
why you try to make everybody
feel sorry for the parties involved and it's whack man

Most politicians have one mission
Say or do whatever it takes to keep your attention
I guess you think the truth is so boring
They get away with telling lies
and you're dumb enough to vote for em'
Left, right, republicans, or democrats
Red or blue, different sides on the same crap
Black, white, gay, straight, need to pipe down
Nobody's obligated to accept your lifestyle

Stop thinking that the government should force it

They Say that you should listen twice
as much as you talk
You have two eyes so you should watch where you walk
'cause everything ain't what it seems
Sometimes it's far from truth
You can mislead them but I'll see right through you

It's time to wake up
It's time to wake up

Another hashtag, now blacks mad
'Cause the cops shot another brother that fast
and yea, that's sad
Here come the marches on Washington
Fueled with fire like arsonist, it's hard to get
and I'm just sick, I'm tired of it
Get up in arms when a cop do it
but don't even bat an eye
when one of Us shooting and it's foolishness
What you're doing is proving that
not even our own kind truly value a life that's black

How can we expect, others to show black folks respect
When we act blind to all of this
Accountability is what we lack
Meanwhile the politician keep benefitting
Taking sides, while they just play the victim
Well I'm black, so I'll tell you like this
Stop fronting like you're pissed when you're inconsistent

I criticize y'all hoping that you rise, dog

They Say that you should listen twice as much as you talk
You have two eyes so you should watch where you walk
'cause everything ain't what it seems
Sometimes it's far from truth
You can mislead them but I'll see right through you

Slander and lies, rationalize, the fact
they try to dismantle guys with animal eyes
Rats, snakes, on the prowl over emphasis on differences
The difference is, to co-exist is the heart of existence
Ain't nothing wrong with being
on different sides of the same subject
Think before you criticize
Minimize conflict by understanding
that you ain't gone understand
all of what is different from you following

They Say that you should listen twice as much as you talk
You have two eyes so you should watch where you walk
'cause everything ain't what it seems
Sometimes it's far from truth
You can mislead them but I'll see right through you

I'll see right through you

It's time to wake up
