Feels like the world's watching you
Wanna make a change, what's stopping you?
What are you scared of?
What are you scared of? Yeah
The future's in front of you
I won't tell the youth nothin' but the truth, no
The truth is they fear us
Truth is they fear us
They aim the red dot on the heart of a lion
Been through the fire and back check my bio
God used to test me, define the defiance
Black, brown, yellow earth, how you see the science?
You can come to butcher shop, we can really chop it up
I'm just tryna make it out
They keep us on the chopping block
Grandpa told me war stories
How they gave up on Oki
Now them GIs my homies
And trust me, I seen them cry like
"How we gon' fight the war for a country that brings us hell?
"How we gon' change the world?
"When we can't even change ourselves?"
What do we fear the most?
To be blinded and lost
So we hurt each other, freedom is at our cost
Who the fuck think you are?
I had to ask my heart
So much weight on my shoulder
I can never sleep, no no
Feel like the world's watchin' you
Wanna make a change, what's stoppin' you? Yeah
What are you scared of?
What are you scared of?
The future's in front of you
I won't tell the youth nothin' but the truth, no
Truth is they fear us
Truth is they fear us
Got me on my fight the power shit
What are we supposed to fight the power with?
I ain't equipped to go to war with politics
And I really can't afford a scholarship
Mama thought I'd never see colleges
Now I'm givin' lectures for all the kids
Use my mind like a weapon, it's all it is
Just tryna spread the message, it's all legit
Yeah, yeah
Tell me how we gon' change the world?
When we can't even change ourselves?
And how we gon' fight the war for a country that bring us hell?
I think we need some help
Pray to God I won't fail, no
Might as well free my buddies in the jail
Livin' in a cell, only time will tell
Feels like the world's watchin' you
Wanna make a change, what's stoppin' you?
What are you scared of?
What are you scared of?
The future's in front of you
I won't tell the youth nothin' but the truth, no
Truth is they fear us
Truth is they fear us
It's a sign, God
Let your light shine through the trials of time
Until you illuminate the darkest space inside your mind
Without a dimmer
We shimmer so the world can see the splendor
And the glimmer of our glory from the outer to the inner being
Seeing is believing
Giving and receiving
The light that guides the human beings
Does free yourself
Bondage from carnal carnage
Let your light shine, give God the homage
A circle in a circle
A wheel within a wheel
Always shining, always spinning
Enlightening all that's real
Draw it up to a fine mist and let it distill
I see the future from a lighthouse over the hill
Tell me how we gon' change the world
When we can't even change ourselves?
And how we gon' fight a war for a country that bring us hell?
Think we need some help
Think we need some help
Pray to God I won't fail
Pray to God I won't fail
Might as well free my brothers in the jail
Livin' in a cell, only time will tell
Feels like the world's watchin' you
Wanna make a change, what's stoppin' you?
What are you scared of?
What are you scared of?
The future's in front of you
I won't tell the youth nothin' but the truth, no
Truth is they fear us
Truth is they fear us
