[Verse 1]
Every day that I'm alive, I try to life it to the fullest
Keep my pistol and believe me, I'll pull it
If a n***a tryna k** me, I know what I gotta do
Hope somebody feel me 'cause you know that I done seen a lot
Just a young n***a grindin' for the block, tryna reach the top
Bein' broke would turn the b**hes off, now they p**y pop
Tryna get the cash I got, I laugh out loud
'Cause all these b**hes a** got shots and they so proud
But I ain't judgin' qne if you thought I was, I wasn't
'Cause I only wanna hit it once and I ain't cuffing
Young, wild n***as so you can't tell me nothin'
'Cause I remember when a n***a ain't had nothin'
Now I came up, I got a lil somethin', tryna turn a lil bit to a lot
Like when lovers turnin' c**aine to pot
I went through the soda straight out the box
Hopin' when this sh** drop it will rock, hopin' when my sh** drop it will rock
[Chorus]
'Cause ain't sh** changed even since my n***a Pac got banged
Some of the players switched up
But it's the same old game
I see no change, so I guess I gotta be that change
I'm just outchea doin' what I gotta do
Showin' young n***as how to make it through
'Cause I had to get it out the muscle, I can never lose the hustle
'Cause I represent the struggle
A change
Guess now you can see there's a better way
So when we die, we make it to a better place
Guess it's lookin' like this sh** will change
I'm hopin' I can be that change
We could be that change
We could be that change
We could be that change
Make the whole world change
We could be that change
We could be that change
We could be that change
[Verse 2]
So many people outchea with nowhere to go
Mother's losin' their children for reasons nobody know
Places with no suns so nothin' can grow
And people in poverty wishin' they could be more
Thinkin' brand new kicks can make you rich
Rather be in brand new whips than pay our rent
Single momma's got 4 kids, the income's fixed
Baby daddy's out on bond and still ain't sh**
Never took the time to notice
The person in the reflection is the real focus
If we could change with them then I'll notice
Historically ain't nobody lookin' out for us, all they ever had was doubt for us
[Chorus]
'Cause ain't sh** changed even since my n***a Pac got banged
Some of the players switched up
And it's the same old game
I see no change, so I guess I gotta be that change
[Outro]
Yeah, I'm guilty of day dreamin' that I can change the world. You can laugh all you want but you can't blame a man for dreamin'. And I've seen so many people life go downhill because they gave up. They stopped believin'. They just stopped dreamin'
