To tie the shoelace of life in place To change the mind from a negative state, Yeh! A question - rose from my soul A question - I began to hold A pitchfork - pinned to my chest Will I, I not pass the test Will I, I not pass the test The Angel began to say to me As the roses set me free, set me free You must recite this throughout the land or else you will be snuffed and canned, snuffed and canned You musn't wrong the write Yoo musn't dark the Light Yu must dove the vulture U must do or die Wow I was shakin' A question shake shake shake Wow I was shakin' A question shake shake shake Alright ! |

The sun will shine on brighter And the wind will always blow Some think life's a breeze Others feel love is sin I've found beauty in dancing stars To you, your dreams may be a farce And you think that you can't feel pain? And you think we can't feel at all Can you sing out in the pouring rain Can you sing out, can you sing out He had one foot in the gutter Another on dry land His ship sailed without him Across life's burning sands He cried out in the distance And no one, no one heard a word For a prophet's not respected in his own world Can you sing out in the pouring rain Can you sing out, can you sing out And all the things I've said And all these things And all the things I've said That you doubt and disbelieve Are shoved back in your face By the spite of mankind's greed You choose to close you eyes And the rest of the world will bleed You choose to close your eyes And the rest of the world will bleed Can you sing out in the pouring rain Can you sing Shoobidooshoobidoo shoodoo |

Said I'm shakin' in my shoes sometimes And all alone I get the blues sometimes And I'm far away from home, it seems so far, so far away Many moons and many days You know many things are on my mind I search and search for answers I can't find Then my people I will seek They listen when I speak Believe me when I say Me and my friends go a mighty long way Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah !!! There's nothing that can make this bond to break And if it comes along it must be strong Believe me when I say Me and my friends go a mighty long way Well I look into the cloudy sky And cleanse my soul as the heavens cry My life like a rolling stone Up and down the hills It breaks my ass like a window sill And if I had to do it all by myself There be a threat to my mental health But there's no need to run and hide When folks are by my side Believe me when I say Me and my friends go a mighty long way Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah !!! There's nothing that could make this bond to break And don't even try unless you're ready to die Believe me when I say Me and my friends go a mighty long way Believe my when I say We go a mighty long way |

Born in the 1940's, my parents couldn't vote X and King were on a march for power true Black power that is Panther's and their attitudes Sport fresh new business suits, yeh, yeh, yeh ! Stricken with determination to rise above a slave, The mayo men used firehoses To spray the monkeys back in their cages To spray the monkeys back in their cages Round and around and around they go The bus is goin mighty slow Brothers in the back seat Caucs in the front People gettin' hostile wanna kill someone "Well the overlords thought it would be a good idea To mix the Black with the White But if you're a fly in the buttermilk They'll chase you all through the night So go ahead and burn your cross and rape our women in the night, 'Cause the tables are turned when your cream coated daughter is gonna be my wife." Round and around and around they go The bus is goin mighty slow Brothers in the back seat Caucs in the front People gettin' hostile wanna kill someone |

There's another cry of murder Policeman shoot down baby brother Shot him, shot him down in the street But did they know the mother's grief Were they sure they got the right one Did they know he was her only son A father tries to feed his family They come here to find their opportunity Living, living, living in the streets With their dreams and with their humility Can't we see all the pain and hurt They love this land maybe more than us It's a ghetto soundwave Gets to me everyday It's a ghetto soundwave Gets to me everyday Another bourgeois politician Hears our pleas but does not listen Never, never, never sees the need But caters only to his greed Can't he see there's no use in lying And don't he know all our hope is dying Our hope is dying, our hope is dying ! Hey ! It's a ghetto soundwave Gets to me everyday It's a ghetto soundwave Gets to me everyday |

There's a light on a hill That's far out in the distance And it calls out my name It calls out for a change Far away voices That want their own choices Sigh for a plea As it calls out for a change Ooh Change Ooh Change Ooh... To the root of Mankind It bellows out bitter winds Youth cry out for today Strength to cry for a change Yet it seems clear to me It pounds inside my soul Why don't we all see We can cry out for a change Ooh Change Ooh Change Ooh... We can change today (X3) Deep inside our hearts There's a love You can feel it It's a love that assures We can cry out for a change The dark clouds that did dance To the blue skies here before me Make it plain to my eyes We can cry out for a change Ooh Change Ooh Change Ooh... |
