Looking for something to complete us And maybe lead us, f** an elitist Hell of a long way from equal is how they treat us Body of a builder with the mind of a fetus Turn on the television and see the vision they feed us And I wish I could erase that, face facts [Chorus] Everybody people, everybody bleed, everybody need something Everybody love, everybody know, how it go Everybody people, everybody bleed, everybody need something Everybody love, everybody know [Verse 2] I been knockin doors down like a Jehovah witness God as my witness, I'm with this But on the real I think I need another witness!

Man what the f** is that? White people told me as a child, as a little boy, playin with his toys I should be ashamed to be black And some black people look ashamed when I rap Like my great granddaddy didn't take a whip to the back Not accepted by the black or the white I don't give a f**, praise God, I could see the light Everybody talkin' 'bout race this, race that I wish I could erase that, face facts [Chorus] Everybody people, everybody bleed, everybody need something Everybody love, everybody know, how it go Everybody people, everybody bleed, everybody need something Everybody love, everybody know [Outro] Okay I was gone for a minute but I'm back now Sit the f** back down Seem like everybody nowadays Hollywood Oh it's like that now?
