This song strictly aint for the purpose of astronomicz
all i try to do is rep my peeps who lackin economics
puffin off the chronic crooks claimin they living alright

but i keep seeing bodies stacked up to the left and the right
Evil is lurkin brothers and sisters puttin work in
tryna make an honest buck but in the end it ain't workin'

Keep the essence of your adolecense, homie dont ask me no questions
I look to evil wait i must be dyslexic
the media dont care about helping the poor

instead of ending poverty they glamorize the drug wars
the industry aint no game it's causing people to change
its rearranged brains to make people forget your name

Dont shed no tears but homie know that i aint happy here
i welcome death, because in life i have nothing to fear



it seems the richer in knowledge, the poorer in wealth
we play the cards that were dealt and still we live in poor health

its me against the world and im the only one supporting change
cuz those who know dont talk and those who talk dont know a thing
it seems the richer in knowledge, the poorer in wealth

we play the cards that were dealt and still we live in poor health
its only me against the world and if we have a chance i need ur help



i hate seeing hungry babies with stomachs in a knot
people so damn used to murder that these children dont get no plot

Who knows where well be as a people in a hundred years
But as of now i see too many impoverished peoples tears
ive noticed a change, its player haters that we idolize

givin em countless dollars to enslave the average childs mind
With every line that i write i try to bring some insight
So hopefully you'll listen and one day set your mind right

lies are told every day to keep the poor going belly up
we need to fight back, protest, show em we aint had enough
If ur living in poverty and money is all you mention

Listen up cuz the cheapest price is just to pay attention
Its no american dream its the american scheme
we sell our souls to pay taxes cuz theyve taken everything



it seems the richer in knowledge, the poorer in wealth

we play the cards that were dealt and still we live in poor health
its me against the world and im the only one supporting change
cuz those who know dont talk and those who talk dont know a thing

it seems the richer in knowledge, the poorer in wealth
we play the cards that were dealt and still we live in poor health
its only me against the world and if we have a chance i need ur help


would you help a man, when he needs a meal, huh $#&@
all i see is bothers that are schemin for fast bucks

were taught to live in cells, and how to get caught in the system
ive made mistakes but sought knowledge and didnt play the victim
people are homeless, begging to live another day

yet we ignore and our society treats em the wrong way
You see in life and in the whole actuallity
Theres no true end to all the universal poverty

maybe one day well see through to the true enemy
then we can stop combatting single mothers and their families
cuz witnissing killings, racism and drug dealings

makes it hard to envision a world that we can truly live in
people are pullin pistols totin 22s wearin timbs
rather live fearing their lives scared to face themselves within





it seems the richer in knowledge, the poorer in wealth
we play the cards that were dealt and still we live in poor health
its me against the world and im the only one supporting change

cuz those who know dont talk and those who talk dont know a thing
it seems the richer in knowledge, the poorer in wealth
we play the cards that were dealt and still we live in poor health

its me against the world and im the only one supporting change
cuz those who know dont talk and those who talk dont know a damn thing
