We Ain’t Seeing It

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Child of the ghetto, crying tears of a hustler Reflecting on the image that's portrayed by a mother Father ain't there to see his son's first steps Correction: now he running in the wrong direction Lost souls wander on a road of no guidance Can't have a drive if you don't got mileage The streets got eyes so you better be prepared You could lose your life over colors that you wear It's a shame but it's true, quick to aim and they shoot What they teach you in video games then they recruit You, to fight a war for your so-called country That's quick to turn they back if you ain't talking money Wanna know too much so they formed a alliance To contradict the Bible with their so-called science Defiance will lead to your self-destruct It's a shame what people willing to do for a buck [Chorus] Everyday I pray that we'll find a better way Show me that tomorrow is the hope for today I say 'cause right now we sinnin' It's artificial what they hear and they believing it Everyday I pray that we'll find a better way Show me that tomorrow is the hope for today I say 'cause right now we sinnin' It's artificial what they hear and they believing it [Verse 2] Women buying chemicals to compensate For the flaws that they find on the surface of they face Love, you is beautiful the way that you are Gotta have self-esteem, it'll take you far No, I ain't a prophet, I just see the microscopic If you trying to receive, better choose another option Where the role models? All I see is gold bottles And women exposing they body, call themselves models And how am I supposed to cope When it's kids in the street with no place to go? But you'll spend all your money in the club but you ride on some dubs Just so the females can show a little love Lord have mercy on they souls Even through the heat, people hearts turn cold Gotta have a balance, 'cause if not The weight of the world's gonna really be a challenge [Chorus] Everyday I pray that we'll find a better way Show me that tomorrow is the hope for today I say 'cause right now we sinnin' It's artificial what they hear and they believing it Everyday I pray that we'll find a better way Show me that tomorrow is the hope for today I say 'cause right now we sinnin' It's artificial what they hear and they believing it
