Artist: Edo.G Album: Intelligence & Ignorance Song: Change Typed by: jostmatt at bluewin dot ch [ Noel Gourdin ] Not again, gimme a break Lordy be, why's this happening? Seems to be a common theme As we climb the steps of dreams Our need to satisfy Deep desire, step through the fire It's the name of the game No pain, no gain It's the claim to fame [ Edo.G ] As black people, success we admire Desire the attire and believe every liar We ain't owners, we consumers and buyers Runnin on rims, not tires In my neighborhood everything higher For the full-plate Robin Hood, we the supplier Times are dire, minds enquire It's like blamin the fire department for the fire [ Noel Gourdin ] We all can achieve the American dream Just ask the poorest, believe in justice Things can always be worse than they seem You got to strive for as long as you breathe, baby For when things get hard, raise your hand to keep hope alive [ Edo.G ] Don't do a stupid move Stop worry about who is who Doin you, screwin you, subduin you through and through Life is less than a tennis shoe First it's me, then it's you Look at the world from a better view From my position and point of view You can point at me, I can point at you They take away more from the many and less from the few [ Noel Gourdin ] Can't much believe anything would be alright Keep the gaze on your eyes, bee, on the sky Know that all of the pain you feel will pass you by Just rest assured, yeah, everything will be alright, alright It'll be alright, be alright Yes, it will, rest assured, yeah
