These things

there are things that need saying, but our words won't allow;
there's a hurricane a coming and we can't save this town;
there's a reason it's happening, but we won't know it now;
these things take time. patience. focus.

we are coming up short on the big things in life
i know brothers without love but they trophy their wife
i know sisters in pain and ashamed of their strife
these things take care. love. attention.

yo i'm diggin the flow -- don't drought me now
there's so much to do, but we don't know how
surrendor to the moment, and be here now.
be here now. be here now.

we got government shareholders, privatized democracy
your vote is as valuable as a ticket in the lottery
the game is red vs. blue, it is anti-diveristy
these things need change. direction. interest.

everyday-americans are determined to poverty
greedy brothers sell our needs to indulge selfish luxury
we fund this injustice by continuing this eceonomy
these things need transperancy. adjustment. broadcast.

i got problems, we all got problems
but some of our problems are the same
none of us have money which somehow equilivates to shame
so some buy expensive things to conceal their poverty
and some see this as competition and use the price-tag to beat
all any of this is doing is preventing what we need
to recognize we're hurting so we can all collectively greive
and when the greiving's done some of us will turn angry
and that's when you wall st. fuckers better be running
and in time, with some patience, with strong focus & lots of love
we can bring justice, balance the below with the above
and if YOUR path takes you to heaven before this time comes
it's our duty to your memory that we keep on keepin' on
