[Hook:Kwanelletary (singing)] Mhhh! What's going on in the streets I'm always steady hoping for change Sometimes I wish I wish I had Strength Yes I wish I Had strength [Verse 1:Kwanelletary] Something's really wrong,I feel it in the air And I can't pretend,so let me say All the things that really make me sad And all the things dat I'm feelin have changed I don't know,maybe it's the parents Maybe we ain't worried,future of the country What about the young kids? growing up and watching Seeing all the nonsense,dat we do in public What is wrong about it? Have you noticed that young kids be falling pregnant at young age? Having babies at young age has become every girl's occupation What about boys who' smoking d**? comitting crimes and jerkin us? Why you think we don't even walk at night? Why you think they all walk around with knifes? What about your lil' sister,dat be dating with dat old mister? Twice her age,who ran from his wife She ain't even questioning why,is it foolishness or small mind? Is it ignorance or their rights? Parents sitting back on the side,some be encouraging that life Where are parents that will say no? though some parents tried to say so They got tired,Heaven they go,some are still believing there's hope Neighbors keep on laughing next door,instead of trynna help the lost souls Someone tell me why is that so? Why confusing that with your jokes? [Hook:Kwanelletary] Mhhh! What's going on in the streets I'm always steady hoping for change Sometimes I wish I wish I had Strength Yes I wish I Had strength Mhhh! The empty souls that I see I'm hoping there's somebody out there Who can a**ist em to change,can a**ist em to change [Verse 2: Kwanelletary] I'm not a saint,I'm jus only saved,the holy spirit's controlling me I sold my soul to Jesus Christ,guess you can say he's possessing me The life I'm livin you can call it trill The people around me looking up to me I'm hustlin hard to get to my degree That's why I'm hardly found even on the streets Still trust nobody,but my next to kin That's still my mother always next to me As for my father,Just wanna thank him for his only contribution when breeding me Back in 93 and gave rise to this,independent rapper that represents Town-P Still I got love for them younger kids,headed to school to achieve their dreams What about those single mothers? headed to work,steady chasing the Mandelas Feeding their kids,trynna make their lives better Where's their men? disappearing like Hitler What's the cause? Must have found some mamasitas But the Lord is watching while you steady make her Sweat the tears,steady hoping for the better Question is,Is you feeling super better? [Hook] [Verse 3: Kwanelletary] Woke up this morning and I received a call It was from my mother,she could hardly talk She was very shocked about what she saw On her way to work she jus saw this boy He was hanging on the tree,tied up by a rope Police all over the place,looking at the corpse I wonder what gave him dat kinda thought But I still believe suicide is really wrong Let this case to be the last case We all shocked and hurting so deeply Condolences to his whole family I know what you going through,been there Put your faith in God,cuz there's healing Keep your heads up high on the ceiling Life keeps going on jus keep living This will come to pa** jus believe me What about those Christians,who be holding grudges on Christians? Who be looking down on their neighbors? Who be praying loud in the churches Yet be judging others like they are,holy angels living in Heaven I'm not trynna say that I'm better,But I'm jus concerned cuz I'm Christian [Hook] [Outro : Kwanelletary] Yeaaah! It's Kwanelletary]
