My people wake up today, before it's too late
Only see you when someone dies, but not while I'm alive
We just don't try, this ain't no lie
This so damn sad, I get so mad
Sleepless nights, even break down and cry
There's got to be a better way, people leaving here every day
Such a selfish life, were here on borrowed time
Can't you see, I need you and you need me
Let's see this through, I believe in you
Let's forgive and love, with help from above
Let's work it out, make our grandparents proud
