[2pac]

Sometimes its hard to wake up in the morning

Mind full of demons, I don't wanna hear them anymore

Got me heartbroken, find so many babies screaming

Cause they seeing destruction before they seeing human being

So they start smoking weed, we'll never get our day

Until we learn to pray, keep our families in shape

Cause they all broke. and why do ghetto birds die

Before we learn to fly, some bodies else's child caught in guns

Smoking weed, can all make a change

So I'm told, but I haven't seen the change unfold,

I keep hoping please, if you prefer to breathe,

Communities in need of people that will lead

Keep your eyes open now, can only say I'll try

Until the day I die, I promise to be wise

With my heart open free, brings only misery

A way to tragedy, so I stay sucker free

Only a few chosen, rise (rise)

My ghetto queen, rise (rise)

Don't be afraid to try (try)

Too many of us died to the door to open wide

My brother be wise, stay focused on the prize

Though everybody dies

We can

Only learn to take, our anger and our hate

Control our mental state, settle down, and just set it straight

For we said it, regret it later, and let it escalate

Cause by then its too just late, theres so much we can take

Theres only so much someone can swallow and tolerate

To the point that he just breaks, snaps and thats all it takes

You'd think that we was learning from other rappers mistakes

But we aint

Its plain to go against, with every artists, comes the image he portrays

And a picture that he paints

But in the midst of all this anger and this angst

Never once did you hear me say I'
