Listen, listen, listen, listen

Listen

Well, it's hard out there for a man

Yeah, it's cold out on them streets

But the world is my buffet, child

And I'm just lookin' to eat

I ain't go no ill intention

I ain't tryin' to compete

But the world is my buffet, child

And I'm just lookin' to eat

And feed the babies, oh

Gotta feed the babies now, yeah

So come on, brothers and sisters

It's the same path you walk

Come on, mothers and fathers

Teach the babies to talk

Come on, brothers and sisters

It starts with a song

Come on, mothers and fathers

Stand up for your cause

And teach the babies to love

Gotta teach the babies to love

It's hard out there for a lady

Sometimes the grass is way too deep

Now women become mothers so our babies get to eat

What do you call the struggle when the cycle is complete?

What do you call the struggle when we're all just lookin' to eat?

So come on, brothers and sisters

It's the same path you walk

Come on, mothers and fathers

Teach the babies to talk

Come on, brothers and sisters

It starts with a song

Come on, mothers and fathers

Stand up for your cause

And teach the babies to love, yeah

Oh, gotta teach the babies to love

Oh, listen now

Brother, sister, mother, father

Brother, sister, mother, father

So come on, brothers and sisters

It's the same path you walk

Come on, mothers and fathers

Teach the babies to talk

Come on, brothers and sisters

It starts with a song

Come on, mothers and fathers

Stand up for your cause

And teach the babies to love, yeah

Gotta teach the babies to love, yeah

Oh, listen now, brother

Oh, listen now, sister

Oh, listen now, mother

Oh, listen now, father

Brother, sister, mother, father
