Feed the hungry and house the poor
We gotta save these babies and stop the wars
Feed the hungry and house the poor
We gotta save these babies and stop the wars
What is success if we can't reach back
And drop a jewel in today's schools, they don't teach that
Our ancestors were kings and queens, peep that
So called educators need to learn to teach facts
From the slum alleyways and the burned-down apartments
To the drug infested buildings where the gun rounds be barking
I see promise in the eyes of the babies
Still the death toll and trauma is drivin' me crazy
I watch how they're makin' us, I spot where they're takin' us
In every neighborhood, the block is hot and dangerous
And what's the point of a fist in the air
If the children are starving and the men don't care
But niggaz don't care and they don't realize
For us to have the chances we got, many have died
And hear the cries of the innocent ones, the victims of guns
And see how shits wickedly run
Feed the hungry and house the poor
We gotta save these babies and stop the wars
Feed the hungry and house the poor
We gotta save these babies and stop the wars
Feed the hungry and house the poor
We gotta save these babies and stop the wars
Feed the hungry and house the poor
We gotta save these babies and stop the wars
Though they might hate my kind, they can't incarcerate my mind
I control my own fate, watch me break these vines
Who else can enlighten the people and fight against evil?
Comes against me and your plight will be legal
You know, they gonna start another war again
We got a few good men but there's much more of them
And I doubt, we'll see another Martin or Malcolm
'Cause the rims and the blimps, have distorted the outcome
And how come we'd rather floss than get our souls right?
Still some stay up hustlin' the whole night
I guess, that's why we got war in our own hoods
'Cause we can't even save ourselves for our own good
And what don't kill you can make you stronger
Keep procrastinating, it'll take you longer
But in these trouble times, so many troubled minds
I see them rockin' us to sleep like a lullaby
Feed the hungry and house the poor
We gotta save these babies and stop the wars
Feed the hungry and house the poor
We gotta save these babies and stop the wars
It's easier for one to give advice
Than it is for a person to run one's own life
That's why I can't get caught up in all the hype
I keep my soul tight and let these lines takes flight
It's easier for one to give advice
Than it is for a person to run one's own life
That's why I can't get caught up in all the hype
I keep my soul tight and let these lines takes flight
Feed the hungry and house the poor
We gotta save these babies and stop the wars
Feed the hungry and house the poor
We gotta save these babies and stop the wars
We gotta stop the war, save the children, yeah
Feed the hungry, house the poor
We gotta save these babies and stop the wars
Feed the hungry, house the poor
We gotta save these babies and stop the wars
