Lyrics
Yeah, you know what? This world is fucked up, you know...and this isn't just another conceptual track, this is my life, this is my soul into the ink onto the paper, into these vocals and onto the track you listening to, naw mean...

Do what you got, you gotta do something/
do what you got, you can't just do nothing/
it's the truth in this rhyme that i'm here telling/
feel me all you want but it's really not helping/
this federation, have a group of people head our nation/
only certain smart cats can get a good education/
no potential, it don't matter if you just an average student/
yo you gotta be a smart kid, yo you just gotta prove it/
to me that's fucked up, you see the cats on the street/
there's no school to get a job, that's why wallets getting teethed/
what's hitting them, is job security, lifting minimum/
when a mother dies, but there's no sign or tears of missing em/
cause you gotta go to work or they'll be gone, dismissing em/
that's fucked, and i don't even know, i just felt it touch/
touch me like a dove, on that special day of Saint Nick/
but when people are thrown in jail, just cause they innocnet/
that's just a messed up world, too many stressed out girls/
and i am yet to witness what the best of world is, I ain't earned it/
All these children stay wilding, disrespecting they mothers/
throw away the paperbacks, don't judge a book by it's cover/

Do what you got, you gotta do something/
do what you got, you can't just do nothing/
it's the truth in this rhyme that i'm here telling/
feel me all you want but it's really not helping/
music is the only key, no help is provided/
they got your name on a list, shit your life already decided/
who's gonna buy it, this kid just needs to get himself rewarded/
but instead he can't get shit, cause his family just can't afford it/
take caution, financial differences is taking over/
Putting peeps through hell is there wack way of maintaing order/
it's not fair, most of us are left to felt down and handless/
and sole supporters can't get jobs cause they just can't speak the language/
well fuck that, it's a corrupt society we living in/
when you know they gonna die, but still call on the witnesses/
ask for a neighbour watch, and they'll give you the wrong time/
life is a roller coaster, muthafucka it's a long ride/
bullets out the guns, I can see the blood on our knives/
watch out, soon they'll put a price tag stick it right on your life/
so next time you think of beefing with somebody next door/
look around, the government got u surrounded and more/

Do what you got, you gotta do something/
do what you got, you can't just do nothing/
it's the truth in this rhyme that i'm here telling/
feel me all you want but it's really not helping/

Do what you got, you gotta do something/
do what you got, you can't just do nothing/
it's the truth in this rhyme that i'm here telling/
feel me all you want but it's really not helping/
Interlude:
You know, I think to myself sometimes, why certain things happen to me, and certain things happen to other people, how life is what you make it, but no matter how hard you try, there's always a road block, and no way around, and when you think it can't get worst, they push you back to where you started, and it's a circle of life...word is bond
It's all over the place, my life roaming in space/
it's like the world left on the icing, but took out the cake/
and everyday I think to myself, why it's gotta go down/
release my feelings into paper, my soul into sound/
it's the gold in the crown, that simply takes us away/
half your life wasted, cause you chased the cheddar per say/
and the fame it's simply touching me then, sucking me in/
battles ain't shit, cause simply it's really nothing to win/
X2
Do what you got, you gotta do something/
do what you got, you can't just do nothing/
it's the truth in this rhyme that i'm here telling/
feel me all you want but it's really not helping/
X2
Do what you got, you gotta do something/
do what you got, you can't just do nothing/
it's the truth in this rhyme that i'm here telling/
feel me all you want but it's really not helping/
