"Sing For Moment" [Verse 1] These ideas nightmares to white parents Whose fear is a child with dyed hair and who likes earrings Like whatever they say has no it's so scary in a house that allows no swearing To see him walking around with his headphones Alone in own zone, cold and he don't care He's problem child what bothers him all comes out, when he talks about in' dad walkin' out Cause just hates him so bad that he blocks him out If he ever saw him again probably knock him out His thoughts are whacked, he's mad so he's back Talkin' black, brainwashed from and rap sags his pants, do-rags and a stocking cap His step-father hit him, so he socked him back, and broke nose house is a broken home, there's no control, he just let's his emotions go... [Chorus] {C'mon}, sing with me, {sing}, for the years {Sing it}, sing the laughter, sing for the tears, {c'mon) Sing it with me, just for today, maybe tomorrow the good Lord take you away... [Verse 2] Entertainment changin', intertwinin' with gangsta's the land of the killers, a sinner's mind is a sanctum Holy or unholy, only have one Only this gun, lonely cause don't anyone me Yet everybody just feels like they relate, I guess words are a mothaa can be great Or they can degrade, or even worse can teach hate It's like these hang on every single statement we make Like they worship us, plus all stores ship us platinum Now how the did this metamorphosis happen From standin' on corners and porches just To havin' a no more kissin' ass But then these critics crucify you, try to burn you Fans turn on you, attorneys all want a turn you To get they hands on dime you have, they want you to lose your mind time you mad So they try to make you out to look like a loose cannon Any dispute hesitate to produce handguns That's why prosecutors wanna convict me, strictly just to get me off of these streets But all they kids be listenin' to me religiously, so i'm cd's while police fingerprint for the judge's daughter but his grudge is against me If i'm such in' menace, this shit doesn't make sense Pete all political, if my music is literal, and i'm a criminal how the can I raise a girl I couldn't, I wouldn't fit to, you're full of shit too, Guerrera, that was fist that hit you... [CHORUS] [Verse 3] They say music can alter moods and talk you Well can it load a gun up for , and cock it too Well if it can, then the next time assault a dude Just tell the judge was my fault and i'll get sued See what these kids do is about us totin' pistols And they want to get cause they think the shit's cool Not we really just protectin' ourselves, we entertainers Of course the shit's our sales, you ignoramus But music is reflection of self, just explain it, and then we get our checks in mail It's ed ain't it How we can come from practically nothing to being able to have any that we wanted That's why we sing for these who don't have a thing Except for a dream, and a in' magazine Who post pin-up pictures on their walls all day Idolize they favorite and know all they songs Or for anyone who's ever been through in their lives Till they sit and they cry at wishin' they'd die Till throw on a rap record and they sit, and they vibe We're nothin' to you we're the in' shit in they eyes why we seize the moment try to freeze it and own it, squeeze it and hold it Cause we these minutes golden And maybe they'll admit it when gone Just let our spirits live on, through our lyrics that you hear in songs and we can... SING THE MOMENT
