In a class of [...]

It’s a small world, never have your eyes closed
Life moves fast, so you gotta drive slow
Verse 1

SUN LOST
REFRAIN
Today my mama losin a son
He can’t scream, can’t scream, he has no breath and no lungs
She watched the sun come up with no sun rays

I mean the clock, stretch out my arm to the beepin direction
And [...]

Is It Just Me
Is it just me, or aren’t you tired of the same old “black” crap
February comes and all you hear is “Black power!” “Black” this and “Black” that
How many times can we say the same things over and over
The white man’s “holding us down”, the white lady’s lookin over her shoulder
I’m tired of [...]

The Mirror
Looking in the mirror everything done changed
Friends aint friends, enemies aint the same
Stand up, head strong until my views gone
Been here for way too long, I’m tryna move on
He never judges me unless I let him, out of my friends he’s the best
I’m talking about my mirror, where my conscience goes to rest
Everyday is [...]
