Feels like the world's watching you
Feels like the world's watching you
Wanna make a change, what's stopping you?
Wanna make a change, what's stopping you?
What are you scared of?
What are you scared of?
What are you scared of? Yeah
What are you scared of? Yeah
The future's in front of you
The future's in front of you
I won't tell the youth nothin' but the truth, no
I won't tell the youth nothin' but the truth, no
The truth is they fear us
The truth is they fear us
Truth is they fear us
Truth is they fear us
They aim the red dot on the heart of a lion
They aim the red dot on the heart of a lion
Been through the fire and back check my bio
Been through the fire and back check my bio
God used to test me, define the defiance
God used to test me, define the defiance
Black, brown, yellow earth, how you see the science?
Black, brown, yellow earth, how do you perceive the science?
You can come to butcher shop, we can really chop it up
You can come to the butcher shop, we can really chop it up
I'm just tryna make it out
I'm just trying to make my way out
They keep us on the chopping block
They keep us on the chopping block
Grandpa told me war stories
Grandpa shared with me war stories
How they gave up on Oki
How they turned their backs on Oki
Now them GIs my homies
Now those GIs are my friends
And trust me, I seen them cry like
And believe me, I've seen them cry like
"How we gon' fight the war for a country that brings us hell?
"How are we gonna fight a war for a country that brings us hell?"
"How we gon' change the world?
How are we going to change the world?
"When we can't even change ourselves?"
When we can't even change ourselves?
What do we fear the most?
What do we fear the most?
To be blinded and lost
To be blinded and lost.
So we hurt each other, freedom is at our cost
So we hurt each other; our freedom comes at a price.
Who the fuck think you are?
Who the hell do you think you are?
I had to ask my heart
I had to ask my heart.
So much weight on my shoulder
So much weight rests on my shoulders.
I can never sleep, no no
I can never sleep, no, no.
Feel like the world's watchin' you
Feels like the world's watching you.
Wanna make a change, what's stoppin' you? Yeah
Wanna make a change, what's stoppin' you? Yeah
What are you scared of?

I won't tell the youth nothin' but the truth, no
I won't tell the youth nothin' but the truth, no
Truth is they fear us
Truth is they fear us
Truth is they fear us
Truth is they fear us
Got me on my fight the power shit
Got me on my fight the power shit
What are we supposed to fight the power with?
What are we supposed to fight the power with?
I ain't equipped to go to war with politics
I ain't equipped to go to war with politics
And I really can't afford a scholarship
And I really can't afford a scholarship
Mama thought I'd never see colleges
Mama thought I'd never see colleges
Now I'm givin' lectures for all the kids
Now I'm givin' lectures for all the kids
Use my mind like a weapon, it's all it is
Use my mind like a weapon, it's all it is
Just tryna spread the message, it's all legit
Just tryna spread the message, it's all legit
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Tell me how we gon' change the world?
Tell me how we gon' change the world?
When we can't even change ourselves?
When we can't even change ourselves?
And how we gon' fight the war for a country that bring us hell?
And how we gon' fight the war for a country that brings us hell?
I think we need some help
I think we need some help
Pray to God I won't fail, no
Pray to God I won't fail, no
Might as well free my buddies in the jail
Might as well free my buddies in the jail
Livin' in a cell, only time will tell
Livin' in a cell, only time will tell
Feels like the world's watchin' you
Feels like the world's watchin' you
Wanna make a change, what's stoppin' you?

Let your light shine through the trials of time
Let your light shine through the trials of time
Until you illuminate the darkest space inside your mind
Until you illuminate the darkest space inside your mind
Without a dimmer
Without a dimmer
We shimmer so the world can see the splendor
We shimmer so the world can see the splendor
And the glimmer of our glory from the outer to the inner being
And the glimmer of our glory from the outer to the inner being
Seeing is believing
Seeing is believing
Giving and receiving
Giving and receiving
The light that guides the human beings
The light that guides the human beings
Does free yourself
Does free yourself
Bondage from carnal carnage
Bondage from carnal carnage
Let your light shine, give God the homage
Let your light shine, give God the homage
A circle in a circle
A circle in a circle
A wheel within a wheel
A wheel within a wheel
Always shining, always spinning
Always shining, always spinning
Enlightening all that's real
Enlightening all that's real
Draw it up to a fine mist and let it distill
Draw it up to a fine mist and let it distill
I see the future from a lighthouse over the hill
I see the future from a lighthouse over the hill
Tell me how we gon' change the world
Tell me how we gon' change the world
When we can't even change ourselves?
When we can't even change ourselves?
And how we gon' fight a war for a country that bring us hell?
And how we gon' fight a war for a country that brings us hell?
Think we need some help
Think we need some help
Think we need some help
Think we need some help
Pray to God I won't fail
Pray to God I won't fail
Pray to God I won't fail
Pray to God I won't fail
Might as well free my brothers in the jail
Might as well free my brothers in the jail
Livin' in a cell, only time will tell
Livin' in a cell, only time will tell
Feels like the world's watchin' you
Feels like the world's watchin' you
Wanna make a change, what's stoppin' you?
Wanna make a change, what's stoppin' you?
What are you scared of?
What are you scared of?
What are you scared of?
What are you scared of?
The future's in front of you
The future's right before you
I won't tell the youth nothin' but the truth, no
I won't tell the youth nothing but the truth, no
Truth is they fear us
Truth is, they fear us
Truth is they fear us
Truth is, they fear us
