Know yourself
Understand yourself
Ask yourself, yes
Say, the order of the day is to have something for people to talk about
You ain't got nothing, then you are nothing
There is no wisdom in the truth if when it all boils down
But back where we started, is where we lost faith
We say our prayers, but we don't stand up and speak
Systems will always have you locked down and weak
Poverty's always where you're gonna be
I'll keep this real, yes, woah
When you wake up in the morning
Don't you wish it was the day you were longing for?
All your bills are paid up, all your troubles are gone
You worry no more
Unlimited spending, every day is like a holiday
And all the trap that they set would mean that they forget
My foot is already at the door, one more
Would you give up on a good life
That you would cherish down to the ground?
Would you give up on your children?
Hey, no, that's a big no no
Would you give up on the people?
Where no man is an island, can't live it alone
We have good intentions, but always the job's never done
We say our prayers, but we don't stand up and speak
Systems go, always have you locked down and weak
Poverty's always where you're gonna be (where you're gonna be)
I'll keep it real, yeah, yeah, ooh
Check yourself
And know yourself
Ask yourself yes, say
Would you give up on a good life
That you would cherish down to the ground?
Would you give up on your children?
Hey, yo, that's a big no no
Would you give up on the people?
Where no man is an island, can't live it alone
We have good intentions, but always the job's never done
We say our prayers, but we don't stand up and speak
Systems go, always have you locked down and weak
Poverty's always where you're gonna be
I'll keep this real, yes, ooh
We say our prayers, but we don't stand up and speak
Systems go, always have you locked down and weak
Poverty's always where you're gonna be (where you're gonna be)
I'll keep it real, yeah, yeah
We say our prayers, but we don't stand up and speak (check yourself)
Systems go, always have you locked down and weak (know yourself)
Poverty's-
Understand yourself
Ask yourself, yes
Say, the order of the day is to have something for people to talk about
You ain't got nothing, then you are nothing
There is no wisdom in the truth if when it all boils down
But back where we started, is where we lost faith
We say our prayers, but we don't stand up and speak
Systems will always have you locked down and weak
Poverty's always where you're gonna be
I'll keep this real, yes, woah
When you wake up in the morning
Don't you wish it was the day you were longing for?
All your bills are paid up, all your troubles are gone
You worry no more
Unlimited spending, every day is like a holiday
And all the trap that they set would mean that they forget
My foot is already at the door, one more
Would you give up on a good life
That you would cherish down to the ground?
Would you give up on your children?
Hey, no, that's a big no no
Would you give up on the people?
Where no man is an island, can't live it alone
