Gotta Seek Change

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Bizzle] It's just another day in the hood Cats in the eighth grade slang 'cain in the hood Rap songs tell 'em how to maintain in the hood But these rappers, they don't even stay in the hood And cats like me'd probably never get a deal 'Cause I say thangs that these Lil Wayne spitters should They sayin' if you don't slang, ball or rap Your chance of escaping the hood ain't lookin' good But Barack ain't rap, Barack's no hooper Barack ain't slang, he used his medulla So why rap never brought school up Unless they were sayin' how they dropped out and still got moolah? And all that did was make it look cooler To drop out of school and let the streets school us And act out Boyz N' The Hood like Cuba Gooding, but who would'a, knew what it spread to a Million children, the city I live in Now they bang hoods that they ain't ever fit in First new rapper let the blue rag hang out Blue rag and red durag when Game came out Heard Wayne suwoop and now y'all flamed out Satan workin' hard, even Soulja Boy banged out Your whole fanbase kids, lil homie Did you really not know that they would wanna go the same route? [Pre-Chorus: Bizzle] Home of the gang bang, thirty years, same thing Why try and maintain this? Chillin' on the block, on a mission for the guap, won't stop Ain't you tired of the same old dish? And I be like [Chorus: Bizzle] Gotta seek change, man, gotta seek change, man We ain't tryna change one bit, it got me sayin' Gotta seek change, man, gotta seek change, man Ain't you tired of the same thing? (Yeah) [Verse 2: Bizzle] Ayy, OG, don't be selfish wit' 'em Tell 'em 'bout the multiple jail cells and prisons Tell 'em rap just sells an image Tell 'em 'bout the funerals and mad caskets, and your homeboys in 'em Tell 'bout that night wit' you and lil' Mac Both laced up your chucks, put a crease in your pants Looking sharp as a tack, but little did you know though Two of you would go, only one'd come back Tell 'em 'bout the pain Tell 'em bout the loss in comparison to gain, tell 'em it's a shame Brought drama to the family that never should'a came Don't lie about the weather, fella, tell 'em it'll rain See, you're like the soul that been to hell but won't Tell the rest what they gotta do for 'em not to go My dude, you could help, tell 'em it's nothin' wrong with school It's much more he can do with himself Turn negative to positive, barely yet acknowledged that If you could do it twice, you'd do everything the opposite You could hate me 'cause I feed 'em what they need But the Lord know my goal's to lead them to the King I'm in it devour the wolves, feed 'em to the sheep But let me not go too deep, I am so unique And they say I'm what the rap game needed Now let us all stand in agreement, for progress, yeah [Pre-Chorus: Bizzle] Home of the gang bang, thirty years, same thing Why try and maintain this? Chillin' on the block, on a mission for the guap, won't stop Ain't you tired of the same old dish? And I be like [Chorus: Bizzle & Sevin] Gotta seek change, man, gotta seek change, man We ain't tryna change one bit, it got me sayin' Gotta seek change, man, gotta seek change, man (Uh-huh) Ain't you tired of the same thing? (Yeah) [Verse 3: Sevin] Attention, ghetto children, listen to a real one You'll be up in prison 'fore you siftin' through a million I was nuttin' different, addicted to the skrillion They say keep it real but they be switchin' up, chameleons Clip up in my steel and I was ready to do dirt, we moved work Beef, you'd get a old bullet through your new shirt I seen my homie with his brain out, eyes grey We kept a .40 and we banged out where I stay And all them dreams of college get burned quick Broke, we meet them problems with sherm sticks Coke, bleed the bottle or burn, yeah It's a joke, they don't keep it silent, they turn snitch They gon' teach you rules they don't abide by Using youth for they benefit, Wi-Fi Why die for a hood you'll never own? I admit it, I did it, was wit' it, the devil's own, huh But if the cat that you listen to is a fake dude Then what does that make you? Homie, it takes two to back a generation You don't help your kids 'cause you lack the dedication Stackin' but you fakin', goin' harder for the hood than your own seed Riskin' your freedom for some good that you don't need My rellie's gone, man, ridin' was all he knew Why is it "Dyin' is all we do"? [Pre-Chorus: Bizzle] Home of the gang bang, thirty years, same thing Why try and maintain this? Chillin' on the block, on a mission for the guap, won't stop Ain't you tired of the same old dish? And I be like [Chorus: Bizzle] Gotta seek change, man, gotta seek change, man We ain't tryna change one bit, it got me sayin' Gotta seek change, man, gotta seek change, man Ain't you tired of the same thing?
