Culture - Save the Children lyrics

[Intro: Cappadonna] Whateva, whateva man I'm here to represent G-O-D to the fullest I got a message man, and the message is straighten up Or get eatin up [Culture] All mighty God is with us (2X) [Chorus 2X: Cappadonna ] Save the children, these streets is like a villain Life is like a chop shop inside of the buildin Save the children, these streets is like a villain Save the children, let the blood stop spillin [Cappadonna] Roses are red, violets are blue, this life is about me and you Not the red, white and the untrue, together we stand Divided we stand tall, final call, God save us all from the gates of Hell Where my young family dwell, it was a tall well While we still suffer, days are gettin tougher Jake on the prowl, treatin people on the street foul Some of them mean well, but they all live behind the shell Kick my door down, without ringin my bell Claim I'm sellin crack, but I ain't doin that All I do is rap, I'm a real MC, trynna get my life back Devils'll make it difficult, there it glow within the cult Can't wait to cut my throat, cuz of how I speak Too black for Hot 97, last year they put me on hold But I still went gold, where the joy go? What happened to the +Black Boy+ video? Bring +Run+ back, y'all scared of Cap Sleepwalkers can't roll wit the blacks [Chorus 1.5X] [Culture] See the man dem him, he went from nice to true drunko Now me speak the truth and a man just a den dead Wit the children, when I told you I be on the outside I can't trust with him, not pity on the outside I'm hung it with him, tell him that I carry Tell dem save the children You sold your bread, I sold my bread So ya meet my new friend, Mr. Up-On-The-Ten Then are ready to bust, let me load again And the play gon sting, just like stealth bomber Refuel the jet, because me loose me venom Jewels we do, and refuse not to sin And when I come hotter, don't work for Jah Hittin though we gettin, well that's the word is dark Brother gettin children, some lovin the hard [Chorus 2X] [Culture] A mighty God is with us [Cappadonna] Intelligent minds, encounters of the third kind Trapped behind enemy lines, youth life on the line Devils keepin us blind if it wasn't for Divine Contracts wouldn't be signed, save the children It's like a chop shop inside the buildin No second guessin, I'm confessin In the club females are undressin Little ones with the s**ual affection need correction too For too many years, shippin us upstate Plantin d** on us, the children ain't safe Broke down our families, then they build gates Sow holes in our brain like life is an earthquake Stole our language so we couldn't meditate Even in the schools where the teachers taught hate Falsify history, everythin is fake Use your third eye when you dealin with snakes Let freedom ring, Born Love Allah, see the king Save the children is the song I sing While I'm layin in the struggle absorbin the sun rays Holdin the children in the last days We're livin like slaves, modern day style Save the children, make em cry for me now Save the children, make em cry for me now [Outro: Culture] Cry for me now, no sight k**in Yagga yaw, them try k** me now Yagga yaw, dem cry for me now Save the children, Dem cry for me now Ya all pigs, you nah You ya, yea yea, God is with us Bad man nah know, cry for me now, blaow!
