EvB - Our Generation lyrics

[Hook:Dashira] Open up your eyes so you can see That if we all spread love in the community We could make this world a better place for you and me Maybe we should make a change, I think its time we make a change [Verse 1] Determined to keep running though my peers lack energy Trynna leave my mark on the 21st century History books are gon' acknowledge the name f** the dollars and fame man thats not why I came Want to obtain the title of a legend before my d**h So Im working every second Im definitely over stressed But Im blessed no need to rest homie Im on a quest To express this sh** off my chest till Im out of breath I feel fresh in the land of the unbathed Where the gun sprays even on sundays Having fun waits when you ain't got yo money straight And them bills need to get paid undelay Trynna contemplate why you always got a stomach ache Thats the type of sh** I hate I just wanna run away But I can't, do this for my n***as up in heaven This life is a blessing by the time I turned eleven I was already used to hard headed shooters Pointing roogers at my dreams like freddy krueger So I would be up with the rooster at the crack of dawn Packing bongs studying about the walls of babylon Telling people tag along but nobody would I need to separate myself to stand out in the hood [Bridge: Ev. B & Dashira] Yeah No time to waste now Yeah We gotta change now [Hook: Dashira] Open up your eyes so you can see That if we all spread love in the community We could make this world a better place for you and me Maybe we should make a change, I think its time we make a change Leave the past in the past and continue to live Its easy to make a mistake but its hard to forgive Dont be afraid to step into the unknown You just gotta have faith and keep holding on I think its time we make a change [Verse 2] Let me take this time out for a little ventilation Honestly Im disappointed in our generation In a age with smart phones, computers, and others Instead of shooting for stars we still shoot at our brothers Man Its crazy to me how you could be watching a movie Then suddenly somebody walks in with a uzi Or just think walking home with some skittles and a drink Doing nothing wrong still get hit end up extinct People been fighting since the biblical times The only problem is technology just tripled the crime For every step we take forward we take two back We in a maze trapped I try to escape through rap And state facts cause if the truth is told The youth can grow change the way we view the globe Dont lose your soul in the hopes of vanity Pursue your goals but stay close to family The worst choice to make is the wrong one Everything affects us in the long run So with that being stated watch who you hang with Its never too late for you to start making changes No more war throw up a peace sign Put your seat on recline and press rewind [Hook: Dashira] Open up your eyes so you can see That if we all spread love in the community We could make this world a better place for you and me Maybe we should make a change, I think its time to make a change
