About the nature of the world today, the nature of the world today
When everybody turns their back on you
Usually it's the prophets, ask a cat what really matters, nowadays
It's kinda hard to keep faith in the things that you do
The economy boosted by the drugs they move in the street
So mom and dad don't forget to warn your sons and daughters
I'm tryin' to search my soul to find out what I'm after
When everybody turns their back on you
Drivin' and typin', not payin' attention, missin' they next exit
And they so strong they bustin' out the flower pot
About the nature of the world today, the nature of the world today
Mom and dad don't forget, to warn your sons and daughters
I'm just tryin' to get back to what really matters
The nature of the world today, the nature of the world today
To put you out of your misery like euthanasia, yeah
So they hurtin' but what's for certain you can get you some heat
Africa and Europe, it's a small world, we truly neighbors
It's kinda hard to keep faith in the things that you do
The street slang, I be speakin' in code
Or any type of suitable livin' condition
We gotta get back to what really matters
Kick in the do's, freakin' the flow 'til the speakers explode
It's kinda hard to keep faith in the things that you do
They're stayin' stuck in one spot, they're not growin'
The more I find my voice the more they try to make it harder
The game changed me into 'A Different World' like Dwayne and Wayne
While your family livin' from granny in the kitchen
Family tradition is to tell 'em you love 'em
When everybody turns their back on you
Except it ain't via the nose, it's from deep in my soul
Word, don't nobody talk no more, they all text message
It's kinda hard to keep faith in the things that you do
The nature of the world today, the nature of the world today
It's kinda hard to keep faith in the things that you do
But the people ain't got shoes for they feet or food to eat
Usually, it's his pockets
Yeah, Brooklyn to Tennessee
It's kinda hard to keep faith in the things that you do
Take my music like a drug and drop the needle in the same vein
But the more I find my voice the more they try to make it harder
Mom and dad don't forget to warn your sons and daughters
About the nature of the world today, the nature of the world today
The power of my roots is thicker than sour sop
It's how we put it, yeah
We gotta search our soul to find out what we're after
When everybody turns their back on you
If they the Third World, then who the first to get to Heaven?
The nature of the world today, the nature of the world today
When everybody turns their back on you
We gotta get back to what really matters, word
When everybody turns their back on you
We in control, the people know I speak the truth
You goin' up with me
Don't let them fool you, we ain't different than the youth in Asia
Dependin' on navigation, they never know where they're goin'
More clearer than the crystal sky, blue as the beast
Listen, they shoot you over that paper, it's just survivalist human nature
Yeah, it's all natural, baby
It's kinda hard to keep faith in the things that you do
The little man in prison
Where the little kids get ammunition, word, you can't get no nutrition
It's kinda hard to keep faith in the things that you do
We gotta search our soul to find out what we're after
When everybody turns their back on you
I'm gettin' high just to maintain, yeah
The more I find my voice the more they try to make it harder
Yeah, I know a city that's surrounded by a beautiful beach
I get a rush like I'm tweekin' off blow
I know it's hard but who does God choose to go through it, worst
And over beef, you laid to rest like you was gettin' some sleep
I'm so over cryin', waitin' and hopin', playin' the lame game
When everybody turns their back
