[00:54.33]Life is here and then it's gone

[00:56.51]And what seems right can be oh-so wrong

[00:59.07]Let's protect, and not molest... a young girl

[01:01.81]And help them live to see... this world

[01:04.24]

[01:04.81]Clearly, as it is

[01:07.30]And pray for the mother with kids

[01:09.48]

[02:00.58]I see Momma by the telephone

[02:03.39]Waiting but you don't call

[02:05.88]Tears on her face and I see them fall

[02:08.32]It hurts but will go on

[02:11.25]You're just another brother who's left his home

[02:13.74]And family yeah we cry,

[02:54.12]A better day is coming

[02:56.55]To keep our lives going

[03:02.23]Money and death, the lie, the truth

[03:04.29]A dime bag of crack, the end of you

[03:06.92]Black and white, a constant fight

[03:09.42]Years and years, and day and night

[03:12.10]There was a right, I've got to stand

[03:14.98]To make a better way for a young black man

[03:17.60]In a land where the people smile

[03:20.46]Been holding me back for such a long while

[03:23.89]

[03:25.70]Will you let them be?

[03:28.32]

[03:31.01]Will you help the children live to see...

[04:12.32]

[04:13.13]Children don't be fooled

[04:14.44]And learn about the way that man was ruled

[04:16.56]This country where we live

[04:19.00]And read about the sixties and what they did

[04:21.36]So that we won't forget

[04:24.74]And love one another and give respect

[04:26.80]When I see a man who's old

[04:29.66]A woman who's grey, it touches my soul

[04:32.16]Because I know they paved the way

[04:35.04]So we could be here and live this way

[04:37.68]There was a time not long ago

[04:40.24]When in the-front-of-the-bus into the back I had to go

[04:44.56]It appears that things have changed

[04:46.12]Maybe it's in the method but it's still the same game
