Issues

I'm here to to talk to you about those real issues The one that got you wiping ur tears with tissues issues Like why we still have racism around today I heard someone say cause of yesterday very far away We raised up with this old thoughts Let me tell you that you will stay short Far from where we should be and could be Cause of short sighted and hatred for you and me But I'm just keeping it real with you But the issues are to much still for you So I keep telling you that I'm lying but I'm trying To keep you from the truth that might have u crying Bleeding from the heart for children dying in wars Or gang violence so we keep ours kids indoors But they tell you that just for the greater cause Another excuse for them to be breaking laws
