Turn my headphones up, yeah
Tired of all this violence
Tired of stereotypes being promoted
We need a spot where we can kick it
A spot where we belong
A place with less worries and human tension
Just a day to come together for heaven on earth
Pass the gates to a huge mansion
Where we all get in free
Is that too hard to see?
A place to spend a quiet night
Time to unwind feeling pressure in this lifetime
It don't matter how much money that you got inside
We all cry
When George died
Try and picture his momma's eyes
It's a different struggle
What's the point of humble
When you don't know if this the last time I'll say, 'I love you'
Adding tension and the misery in poverty
You will never know the damage that we all survive
Keep your composure my people
Got to hold on
Chin up, walking tall as we roll on
May not get another chance so don't miss it
Intelligent action, quick wit, to build our mansion
Every corner, every city, there's a place where life's a little easy
Little Hennessy, laid back and cool
Every hour cuz it's all good
Leave all the stress from the world outside
Every wrong done will be alright
Nothing but peace, love, and street passion as we build our mansion
From the depths of darkness how this all starts
Hope is for the good hearted, dear departed
If we could scream out tears
So they could hear what is wrong here
So we see who all cares
Peaceful protest stand up don't be alarmed
People joining us on our side all along
Of repressed emotion
Karma's on our side
So don't fold, they will oblige
Of 100 plus years of our sacrifice
Another one gone
As we ask why
Another family going through a sleepless night
Wondering what would of happened if he stayed the night
Everything happens for a reason
Remember that
When it can't be explained sometimes
Remember that
It was for a purpose
Something higher learning
Sending messages to build our mansion
Every corner, every city, there's a place where life's a little easy
Little Hennessy, laid back and cool
Every hour cuz it's all good
Leave all the stress from the world outside
Every wrong done will be alright
Nothing but peace, love, and street passion as we build our mansion
Dear mommas don't cry your baby boy's doing good
Watched over in heaven
Where everything's all good
"A change is gonna come"
Spirit of Sam Cooke
"Don't worry be happy"
Bob Marley I took
From my record player just to add another layer
Cuz I needed extra flavor
To take my mind off this
Let my mind drift
But instead I wrote this
Billie Holiday "Strange Fruit" as I sit
And reflect on the future
Like where we going next will it suit ya
So much craziness increasing with time
Moving backwards in time
Think I''m losing the time
Can you give me the time
To reflect on the future
Where we going next
Will it suit ya
So much craziness increasing with time
Moving backwards in time
Think I'm losing the time
We need to rebuild our mansion
Every corner, every city, there's a place where life's a little easy
Little Hennessy, laid back and cool
Every hour cuz it's all good
Leave all the stress from the world outside
Every wrong done will be alright
Nothing but peace, love, and street passion as we build our mansion
