Lyrics
People places
Some things are basic
Some facts
We just may have to face it
Sometimes
Just want to turn the pages
People places
Some things are basic
Some facts
We just may have to face it
Sometimes
Just want to turn the pages
Payback
They usually gonna say that
Wayback
We used to kick it like that
Same rap the reason
They gonna come back
Play that
We use to always say that
Payback
They usually gonna say that
Wayback
We used to kick it like that
Same rap the reason
They gonna come back
Play that
We use to always say that
They white they black that's all You hear the news say
The A the A the P I
Man are here to stay
People fight
But their blood looks just like
Some speeches might
Bring a buzz a little light
Whose to blame
They keeping it in our name
Whose ashamed
The puzzles such a dirty game
And they follow the leader
Right down the wrong path
A Christian and Muslim
Smile and got the same laugh
Whats coming from their mouth
Sounds like human beings
Speaking loud in crowds
Protest for basic things
People make fun of those
With slanted eyes
And say dark skins
The element of stupid guys
How we gonna change
Our brains to make it happen
Some shoot up things for pain
I do it rapping
The more things change
The more the same applies
Keep Mayas speech in my head And still I rise
People places
Some things are basic
Some facts
We just may have to face it
Sometimes
Just want to turn the pages
People places
Some things are basic
Some facts
We just may have to face it
Sometimes
Just want to turn the pages
Payback
They usually gonna say that
Wayback
We used to kick it like that
Same rap the reason
They gonna come back
Play that
We use to always say that
Payback
They usually gonna say that
Wayback
We used to kick it like that
Same rap the reason
They gonna come back
Play that
We use to always say that
Some stay waiting on the
Cash app
Minimum wage going up
But it's still whack
People don't know where to go So they stress
Government assistance helps
A little less
Drugs never go away
Some in six packs
Just a different type of way
But the same old crack Prescription pills
Given out like Similac
Opioids is the new aphrodisiac They canceling culture
They do it all the time
Some people get offended
Blank off and lose they mind
Good to sing praise
But you can't believe it all
Everything gets judged
But it won't be by y'all
Some things remain the same Ain't nothing nice
Some things will never change Still the same old spice
And what a difference
A year makes that's what I hear
And it's still all gas
No brakes out here
People places
Some things are basic
Some facts
We just may have to face it
Sometimes
Just want to turn the pages
People places
Some things are basic
Some facts
We just may have to face it
Sometimes
Just want to turn the pages
Payback
They usually gonna say that
Wayback
We used to kick it like that
Same rap the reason
They gonna come back
Play that
We use to always say that
Payback
They usually gonna say that
Wayback
We used to kick it like that
Same rap the reason
They gonna come back
Play that
We use to always say that
