As I sit, as I sit
And I stare into the clouds
And watch the world turn
Is this where we belong?
Or is it a step to fill?
Makes me wonder, makes me think
Everything we do is weak
Turn down
Oh 'cause look at the mess we've made
Who's gonna clean it up?
Oh my God, where's Captain Planet?
Perception, what you see
Number to reality, so far away
You are so drunk, you miss it all (yeah)
Just make sure you have the right Jordans on
Or be left behind to rot and die
Face down in the gutter
This is gonna sound like I was just hitting the hash
They make us think it's a race war when the war is in class
Teachers come through to speak in images through the glass
Subliminal messages influencing the whole clash
Black, white, gay, straight human beings all pee and want some ass
If you scared of different then you should not take the same path
If all lives matter when we mention Black why do you gasp?
Behind our blue skies is the sun who's surrounded by black
I love the camo but why have more ammo than mash?
Instead of blue, wake yourself up
Take the left pill and laugh
Laugh
Ha
