Governments, must obliterate starvation, its vital But they put the money in sh**, like Australian Idol & the entertainment value, that appeals to the ma**es Such a short-lived thing, 'til it burns & crashes Yeh, now thats somethin' that I love to see I get upset these little girls are followin' TV Coz we gotta make this planet see, wat's wrong from right So everybody sing along wit me, & join the fight, aiight! yeh Verse 2: And social trends shouldn't shape, all the dreams that we chasin'
Expectations, that one day we'll all make it For some it never happens, they stuck in the rat race For me, im up & out the rut, livin' at fast pace So what you want son, you started this & my friends, im here to tell ya what the problems is Give parents advice, go make some smarter kids & they oh so poor, stealin' outta them bargin bins Now you thinkin' "what's wrong", you ain't rasin' em right Coz ya got ya son a guitar, when he was fiendin' a mic Because you shoulda listened, and made a real transition Take time, to sit down, begin chillin wit ya chitlens, (uh) The time you spent away, inside it just k**ed him Through my lyrics, pain & tough times, creates wisdom So im here to spread the word, I'm on a little mission Check for the break, an exquisite intermission, like, uh It's Notion Baby! It's My Turn baby!
