You know I just can't leave y'all with all bad news That'll make me worse than them Right? So this is it right here This is good news I got good news This is good news I got good news I got good news If I was editor-in-chief Here's the news I'd choose for the viewers, read the wire Downtown, a homeless man received a dollar from a white collar Who usually don't care who was impoverished Nouveau-Riche, slim fit, Dockers creased too tight to reach in his pockets But today, he actually took the time to read the sign I'm a disabled vet, trying to get something to eat Two kids, a family to feed Please, anything helps, even a smile In his tears, he saw a man's real fears Each drop a mile walked Empathetic choked up talk, you just like me In sports today, athletes are still taking knees Tired of taking L's Everybody protesting even Spike Lee Activism on a winning streak that's three in a row Kaepernick led come back Opioid crisis on ice Athletes sufficed long as they got trees to blow Barry Bonds elected first ballot for the hall Looked in the crowd told Pete Rose to come along D. Rose finally came back to the crib to play ball In local news, the rose that grew from concrete is sprawling Into a whole community garden Putting a plethora of food on all tables Villages now have their own health departments Shout out to Ms. Mabel Her home went into foreclosure but her daughters support her Teamed up and pooled resources big bag Passed the inspection flipped that Invested in a multi-unit apartment Setting a new model for others to follow In cooperative economics Speaking of the economy Bezos decided to give away all of the money That Amazon was supposed to pay In taxes to various charities internationally Challenging everybody else in his bracket to match it The biggest collective gift in history Signaling a shift in wealth distribution The mystery solved, officially fall Back to moderate temperatures Reduction in greenhouse gases we sending up Resulted in an increase in glacial increments Now palatial for polar bears and emperor penguins No fences up, borders opened And America regained its status As the land of hope, opportunity, and passion Taking on the world's huddled entire masses Reparations for everybody, based off past mishappenings Praise God, Allah, Yahweh Interfaith coalitions for Christians, Jews, Muslims, and Catholics Open houses held at synagogues, temples, and masjids Even in writing this I got to asking myself If this is all too simple Or if we make it hard on ourselves I'm wondering what Lauryn Hill must've went through Signed autographs after the concert till her face was blue I'm sorry for making you wait, y'all I just fixed the news Wasn't that good Imagine if the normal news was that positive This is good news I got good news This is good news I got good news This is good news I got good news I got good news This is good news I got good news This is good news I got good news This is good news I got good news I got good news
