Now can you feel it, why my people left out in the streets
Ain't got no shoes on they feet, that baby ain't got nothing to eat
Now can you feel it, she got three babies, now daddy's a lifer, over drug money
Now it's no money for them diapers, that's f*ck up
Now can you feel it, you ask me why I'm mad
Cause building prisons is a new industry and 95% of the inmates look like me
Now can you feel it, you understand
Now can you feel that shit, man, that's fucked up
Got me in tears, how could we be so fooled
Why for so many years, why could you know a lie
Holding inside , and let so many died
What kind of world is this
Run from the police and they just might shoot ya
And these schools start these kids out with no future
Show love in the hood it ain't mutual
A lot of times people wanna hate ya, despite ya
That's a problem we gotta deal with and that's major
When I wake up in the morning, grab my blessings
Wanna take em to the hood and just spread em
Wanna smoke a little bit of that reefer
Cause I know that my niggas be stressed
Hold up, let me take a little time out
To show y'all what I really rhyme bout
Gotta mix a little truth with the bullshit
Just to make em really wanna go and find out
Behold a pale horse blew my mind out
Jeff K, eat the cake, bitch, Anna may
Pick a president who got no say and he pimped out on us every day
Now can you feel it, be united or die
Now can you hear me
Revolution won't be won with a gun
Ain't got a community, better build you one
Ain't got a gun, better get you one
Got no land, better get you some
To the cold hearted , if you can feel this shit
Man, than my job here done
Now can you feel it
Why my people left out in the streets
Ain't got no shoes on they feet
That baby ain't got nothing to eat
Now can you feel it
She got three babies, now daddy is a lifer
Over drug money, now it's no money for them diapers
That's fucked up
Now can you feel it
You ask me why I'm mad
Cause building prisons is a new industry
And 95% of the inmates look like me
Now can you feel it
Huh
You understand
Can you feel that shit
Man, that's fucked up
Where's your compassion
I'm looking for a glimpse of hope, that's all I'm asking
I just wanna see some concern
The house on fire, don't let it burn
As the world turned, the world turned against us
We went from plantations to penitentiaries
History books distorting my memory
This can't be life
I know this ain't what it's supposed to be like
Hanging young brothers from the streetlights
Just cause we look like what we look like
The truth's so strange, don't seem right
Right in front of your face, but you can't see right
Can't see right, cause you've been blinded
Like I was, since I was knee high
Now can you feel me
Hurtn an only truth can heal me
To the nation inside of the nation
Come up out of her if you can hear me
Now can you feel me
For the men that ain't got no family
Find a boy that ain't got no daddy
And teach the little one to be manly
Understand me
Now can you feel me
Alarm clock, you better wake up
Steady trying to figure out the lie
Better figure out why that lie was made up
Shit, I'm kicking bricks
But, i might as well grab some accers
A dollar ain't worth shit, but
I might as well stack some paper
Stack some paper
Now can you feel it
Why my people left out in the streets
Ain't got no shoes on they feet
That baby ain't got nothing to eat
Now can you feel it
She got three babies
Now daddy is a lifer
Overdrug money
Now it's no money for them diapers
That's fucked up
Now can you feel it
You ask me why I'm mad
Cause building prisons is a new industry
And 95% of the inmates look like me
Now can you feel it
Huh
You don't understand
Can you feel that shit
Man, that's fucked up
