This morning, I woke up
Feeling brand new I jumped up
Feeling my highs, and my lows
In my soul, and my goals
Just to stop smokin, and stop drinkin
But I've been thinkin - I've got my reasons
Just to get (by), just to get (by)
Just to get (by), just to get (by)
This song symbolizes a major transition in my life!
SCREAMING THROUGH WALLS THAT CANNOT SUSTAIN MY ANGER
I SCREAM FOR THE WORLD'S ATTENTION UNTIL THE WALLS BLEED
IT’S NOT DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE WHY WE SCREAM
ATTENTION SHOULDN’T BE DEMANDED WHEN THE ELEPHANT IS RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOUR SCREEN
THE TELEVISION SCREEN SHOWED ME HOW TO DREAM
BUT DREAMS HAVE BECOME NIGHTMARES
WE’RE BEING LEFT BEHIND
IT’S DARK AND I’M SCARED
I AM REALITY AND YOU ARE BLIND
COLORS DO MATTER
I AM DARK SKINED AND I WALK ON TOP OF GREEN
YOU SHOULD HAVE KNOWN I WAS TALKING ABOUT MONEY
THERE’S NOTHING ELSE TO TALK ABOUT
I’M HUNGRY AND THE WALLS DON’T FEED ME
NOT TO MENTION THEY ARE FALLING APART
IT’S NOT CALLED DETERIORATING HOMES
IT’S CALLED GREED
IT’S CALLED HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF
IT’S CALLED A SHAMELESS CIRCLE THAT SHOULD BE FULL OF SHAME OF ITS PATH
IT’S CALLED REVOLUTION WHEN WE MUST FIGHT FOR OUR RIGHTS BECAUSE YOU WANT MORE AND MORE COMMODITIES
I JUST WANT TO EAT
YOU DON’T WANNA SEE ME SUFFER BUT YOU CAN’T HELP IT
I AM REALITY, AND YOU ARE NOT BLIND,
BUT YOU PRETEND TO
WHILE YOU COPE WITH YOUR OWN REALITY, YOU CAN NEVER UNDERSTAND MINE
I JUST WAN TO EAT
LET’S GO TO A FIVE STAR AND THROW FOOD AWAY
THAT SOUNDS TERRIFIC.....THE END...TO BE CONTINUED!
Politicians are like robots. The money and the (elite) status will always rule over what they really wish they could do for the people..Their job is to TRY to keep society going, not to make it better..Which is pretty lame.....
It's people like these (the video) that provide a future for humanity!
I actually feel exited about this year like I've never felt before about any other year!!
It's going down!
The rise or fall of ILLICIT!
Only one chance!
Let's go!
Kickback records get kicked to the back
I want big cribs and my man Ronnie to get his
Child in a good school and know what her gift is
It's global warming, the world is shifting
Watching Sweet Sixteen, Bitchin-ass rich kids
You don't know it like you gotta go the distance
Whether yoga or doja, we all get lifted in the Game
At the top of my playlist for the past few weeks!!!
Uh, feeling sorry for the runner up,
I’m still awake getting money while the sun is up,
and they keep saying how they need me to deliver
cause they hate it when the rookie star doesn’t put the numbers up,
Man, hatas' so passe, catch me on a tie with a suit on draft day, nigga!
and it’s just me and my money,
ya don’t even get to play when ya’ll leading by 20,
yeah I infiltrated the game,
i was hesitant at first and fear what it would change,
now I’m high off the success and faded off of the fame,
and still managed to keep all of my opinions the same,
I am so far gone bitch Im outta here,
hotter than standing inside rocking outerwear,
I want it all man, I never learned how to share,
I also can no longer converse with you thousandaires,
wow, I swear Im killing shit Im killing shit,
shout out to my niggas I just made a couple million with,
yeah from the beginning to the end,
know I’m into making history not into making friends,
muthafucker….
I'm telling you!! change!!
"Rihanna, Lady GaGa, American Idol’s Adam Lambert and Britain’s Got Talent Susan Boyle all dropped their album last week. With this being Susan’s first album, she has already sold 700k copies in her first week!!!!"
While Rihanna only sold 180K..Susan Boyle sold 700K albums in the first week!!!

Moving from symbolic to substantial like this lady has, is what Obama should be doing in the White House!!!!!

HAHA! I SEE A MOVEMENT BEGINNING..NOT JUST THIS PROJECT, BUT JUST WATCH THE HUGE SHIFT IN THE NEXT 10 YEARS..I SEE PEOPLE GOING BACK TO THE FUNDAMENTALS OF LIFE! NOT SUCCESS! ---> GREATNESS!!!!
This is my fuckn shit!!! It's great to hear Common at its best, and with this Kanye beat..OMG..music cannot get any better..P.S. John Legend kills it on the hook as well! The revolution will not be televised; the revolution is here!!!
"He can call Kanye West an a-s-s-h-o-l-e, you see, but not a Joe Wilson and not a policeman, who might be going beyond the bounds, and so forth. You see what I mean? So it was that kind of a relative spinelessness in high places that upset me."
