paroles de chanson Us Against the World - Siple

Sit and reminisce about all the blessings in my life
Thinking if I could go back would I do it all twice
Maybe I just might, change a thing here or there
See that's the problem, things never could compare
What we feel we could have to what we really have here
That's the greed that sends our peers overseas
Cause we often oversee all the blessings we have in our life
Avoid the real news, look the other way close our mind
Shop the newest Jays and Gucci, you know really clothe our mind
If I said we've progressed as a whole I'd be lying
All this hatred built inside is what has people dying
No one really seems to even care but to be fair
As long as you get yours, you can mask the despair
Every once in a while, peek your head, grab some air
How long can and will that really last you though
Before you can't hide behind the silly mask no more
Cause one day reality will come knocking on your door
I swear we have to wake up and face the truth
Change doesn't start with them, change starts with you
Habits we create won't just be reflecting us
Habits we create will be reflected by our youth
We don't just provide them with the paint and the brush
We provide them with the ideas in which to paint the muse
So let's provide them with hope in a world full of lose lose

Why's it always feel like it's us against the world
And when we try and make a difference it goes unheard
I try my best to help people change their attitudes
At the end of the day it's a decision they gotta choose
Always wanna see us grow
I just wanna see us rise
They wanna see us burn
Im just trying to stop the fires
You can see it in their eyes
They just want my demise
Always hide behind their lies just to criticize

Crazy to think we post content just to get the views
Ignore the context despite the fact that its actual news
Then proceed to the comments just to start a feud
We think we voice our opinion but it's verbal abuse
Argue over topics which you can't provide an excuse
Never is it ok to point a gun at a crowd and shoot
If we argue over that, you are why we can't improve
We won't progress til people change their attitude
You won't ever know what someone's really going through
Until you take the time to see the world through their eyes
Lace them up and decide to walk a mile in their shoes
I was raised to always say my please and thank yous
My parents blessed me with important values
Always treat everyone with respect, that's a fact
You never know how many times they've been ridiculed
You never know how many times they've been attacked

Why's it always feel like it's us against the world
And when we try and make a difference it goes unheard
I try my best to help people change their attitudes
At the end of the day it's a decision they gotta choose
Always wanna see us grow
I just wanna see us rise
They wanna see us burn
Im just trying to stop the fires
You can see it in their eyes
They just want my demise
Always hide behind their lies just to criticize

You can spit the truth, don't mean the youth will listen
You can spit the truth, people will still think you trippen
That's the problem now a days, people want the truth
But when they get it they run and look the other way
Refuse to believe it when it's in front of their face
Decide to be ignorant instead of taking time to educate
Themselves, create a better world, create a better place
Use your mind to teach others don't let it go to waste
Spread your sweetness instead of leaving a bitter taste
I'm just saying, I wanna see the world grow
Wanna see us come together fore it's time to go
You never know when that will truly come to be
Sit and laugh today but tomorrow isn't guaranteed
For all we know tomorrow we will be below six feet
So really take advantage of the time you do have
Once you've spent it, there's no receipt, no taking it back
