In This World

In this world filled with drama We're still reliving trauma Embedded in our bloodlines I heard it through the grapevine In this world filled with drama We're still reliving trauma Embedded in our bloodlines I heard it through the grapevine Let's evaluate the situation They done taught the nation to hate each other Based off color and different birth location Trust nobody chase this paper don't get in relations Material things mean more then a genuine bond Do you a favor they gon ask for a leg and a arm You can get shot just for walking in color and causing no harm Or just going to school Church or even for food Gotta be a dumbass to walk around without a tool I peeped game My teachers always used to pick on me So I kept my grades up Stayed focused with intensity Help my friends if we all win That's the only victory Gotta make sure you stand for something the statue of liberty Ya hearing me What they fear most is nigga with some intelligence Ain't bout race but if you pale-skinned then they gon let you in No exaggeration this what has been perpetuated Education and laws used to keep the whole world segregated Call the worlds telephone can you let me know what's going on I got some questions ima need for you to answer em Call the worlds telephone can you let me know what's going on I got some questions ima need for you to answer them In this world filled with drama We're still reliving trauma Embedded in our bloodlines I heard it through the grapevine In this world filled with drama We're still reliving trauma Embedded in our bloodlines I heard it through the grapevine The grapevine told I We do not know our own kind They erase our history, Replace it with bold lies They making up diseases like cancer, aids and Ebola We get locked up for breaking down bricks But it's coke in our cola It's rare that you smell something good in the air Just despair and people who done gave up on care There's no hope left So i'ma start my own quest Always second guess them Your intuition what knows best You know it's a hard knock life for the most part So ima make dope art like I'm Mozart While rocking no brands or labels Never one to watch cable Don't believe everything cause it's televised That's the main source to brainwash us and tell us lies In a world that's based of opinions, theories and jealousy People will do anything just to get keep some relevancy Gotta get shot down just to have a legacy Call the worlds telephone can you let me know what's going on I got some questions ima need for you to answer them Call the worlds telephone can you let me know what's going on I got some questions ima need for you to answer them In this world filled with drama We're still reliving trauma Embedded in our bloodlines I heard it through the grapevine In this world filled with drama We're still reliving trauma Embedded in our bloodlines I heard it through the grapevine I heard it through the grapevine I heard it through the grapevine
