aint no Jade Goodie - just a brother from another mother

Mrs. Charity Sweet | 11.04.2009 20:30 | Culture | Repression | Social Struggles | South Coast | World

CONFUSIN’ MY MIND – IT’S A SIGN OF THE TIMES
Is life all just a game – has the world gone insane?
Some folks think i’m mad cause i refuse to be sad
I refuse to accapt that this life is a lie...
I refuse to accept that this life is just a lie
That children don’t matter – ain’t there no family ties?
United we stand and divided we fall
We must all stand together – no more backs to the wall

What can they do if we all sing in one voice
That truth is our purpose and real peace is our choice
Black on black – white aint white
Gotta stop killin’ each other
All this hatin’ ain’t right – we’s fightin’ only our brother
Our bredren are dyin’, the children are cryin’
Is daddy just sleepin’ – tell momma she’s lyin’

I know a good man – he has hope, one true dream
Just to see his son grow, dream ripped apart from the seams
Watch him grow – sweet seed sowed
Dreamin’ of dem brighter days
Bein a man, doin’ all that he can
Tryin’ his best, gotta find a way
This man lost his life and on the table he lay
Little bro fightin’ 5-O to get in, f*ck
Well what can i say?

My boys he’s flat-linin’, ER live, paddles ready
Fightin’ for his life, what’s the deal, nightmares real, who called Freddy?
Take his moms from the room, there’s been beef – knuckle duster
Cause of some silly cow
N’ some fool who don’t trust her
My boy was just chillin’, their lovers tiff not his biz
Pass who over his phone, truth unknown, he done said how it is

He rolled down the street, up behind bitch did creep
Boy took down to the floor, he was conscious no more
That look in their eyes
What’s goin’ on in her head?
Da police knocked on that door
Said baby boy could be dead
Is he still beathin’ – can I get there code red?
These are the thoughts that screamed and tore through her like lead

The block all locked off n’ little bro he was shakin’
The violence eruiptin’ cause his heart it was breakin’
Is he gonna live – shit!
Or is he gonna die?
Lord, why am I here
Someone please tell me why?
Now tragically dead, magically brought back to life
With God as my witness, his son saved his life

The son his heart beats for, his true reason be
Why he wants a better life – why he wants to be free
In a coma he lay n’
His fam were all cryin’
Resurrected from death – to his feet he’d be risin’
2 walk in the sunshine n’ sit n’ chill in the park
Livin’ the life of his dreams, on this world leave his mark

Children learn what they live, he’s done realised the truth
You gotta be the change you wanna see, expect a miracle – he’s livin’ proof
Gotta lead by example
Make the world a better place
No rat races, just faces - peace love n’ justice the basis
2 live is 2 love – as from birth, human right
2 love is 2 really live – FAM 4 LIFE – let’s not fight

PEACE X
