What used to be filth
Now the slang word of the day
what a shame
For youth to end up this way
But what can i say
Most slang
comes from the music of today
such as
"wait til you see my ----"
is sick
put a phat beat to bad words
then all of a sudden it's music
it's a hit
My brothers and sister
why must you try my patience
caring more about your hair
than your education
thinking it's nothing
Something you don't need
But minds change
When homeless on the street
ya' know what i'm talking about
Some acting rude
getting loud
spreading rumours around
Thank goodness for those
who step out of the crowd
Exploring the horizion
of what may be rising next
Blessed are the youth
who are trying their best
to protect their future
Instead of obscuring it
with obcenities
rude and little explaining
how black are today
You never open your eyes to see
But think you know everything
by watching MTV
PLEASE!
Don't make me laugh
Nothing but fowl language
and people shaking their-
ask me a question
yes ask me a question
about black today
Compared to whats seen on TV
Answers won't be the same
So even though
You may get dissed by yo homes
just know
You can do anything you want to
Cliche
I know, but it's true
so let your friend
"playa hate you"
Worry about bling-bling
and the newest fat joe CD
Do your own thing
Then try the very thing
Those stereotypes make misleading
THINK!
Or we will forever be a;
N-never
