Mmm 
See he's organized 
And he's on the ball 
Never miss a day of school 
And he's a underdog 
 
Wanna learn more and more 
'Cause his mama taught him good 
He's about to change the face 
Of yo ghetto neighborhood 
 
Walking to school today 
Saw a brother on the streets 
Seem like errthang was cool 
'Cept the brother's packing heat 
Oop, oop 
 
Then everything changed 
'Cause he saw his own wings 
And his mother was sad 
They will last, time will past 'cause I

Dey be trying to hide the history 
But they know who we are

Raise ya hands high if you agree 
Just say yesire ooh, yesire

Now to my folks, think dey living sweet 
Well, dey gone fuck around and push delete 
To the girls on prescriptions pills

To my boys in Iraqi fields 
This ain't no time to kill 
To my girls in therapy 
See I'ma tell you this fo' free 
To my folks up on the hill 
With the cake and dollar bills 
 
You need to watch da dirty cop 
Dey the one you need to watch 
I'm talking 'bout the dirty cop 
Dey the one you need to watch, stop 
 
You get the wake up call 
When you saw the buildings fall 
Bowties with the final call 
Get ya money dollar bill, ya'll 
Bowties with the final calls 
Get ya money dollar bill, ya'll 
 
To my folks on the picket line 
Don't stop til you change dey mind

Baptized when the levy broke 
We gone keep marchin' on 
Until you hear dat freedom song 
 
And if you think about turning back 
I got the shotgun on ya back 
And if you think about turning back
