CHANGES a Tupac song

Come on come on
I see no changes wake up in the morning and I ask myself
is life worth living should I blast myself?
I'm tired of bein' poor & even worse I'm black
my stomach hurts so I'm lookin' for a purse to snatch
Cops give a damn about a negro
pull the trigger kill a nigga he's a hero
Give the crack to the kids who the hell cares
one less hungry mouth on the welfare
First ship 'em dope & let 'em deal the brothers
give 'em guns step back watch 'em kill each other
It's time to fight back that's what Huey said
2 shots in the dark now Huey's dead
I got love for my brother but we can never go nowhere
unless we share with each other
We gotta start makin' changes
learn to see me as a brother instead of 2 distant strangers
and that's how it's supposed to be
How can the Devil take a brother if he's close to me?
I'd love to go back to when we played as kids
but things changed, and that's the way it is

Come on come on
That's just the way it is
Things'll never be the same
That's just the way it is
aww yeah
[Repeat]x2

I see no changes all I see is racist faces
misplaced hate makes disgrace to races
We under I wonder what it takes to make this
one better place, let's erase the wasted
Take the evil out the people they'll be acting right
'cause both black and white is smokin' crack tonight
and only time we chill is when we kill each other
it takes skill to be real, time to heal each other
And although it seems heaven sent
We ain't ready, to see a black President, uhh
It ain't a secret don't conceal the fact
the penitentiary's packed, and it's filled with blacks
But some things will never change
try to show another way but you stayin' in the dope game
Now tell me what's a mother to do
bein' real don't appeal to the brother in you
You gotta operate the easy way
"I made a G today" But you made it in a sleazy way
[Changes lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]

sellin' crack to the kid. " I gotta get paid,"
Well hey, well that's the way it is

Come on come on
That's just the way it is
Things'll never be the same
That's just the way it is
aww yeah
[Repeat]x2

[Talking:]
We gotta make a change...
It's time for us as a people to start makin' some changes.
Let's change the way we eat, let's change the way we live
and let's change the way we treat each other.
You see the old way wasn't working so it's on us to do
what we gotta do, to survive.

And still I see no changes can't a brother get a little peace
It's war on the streets & the war in the Middle East
Instead of war on poverty they got a war on drugs
so the police can bother me
And I ain't never did a crime I ain't have to do
But now I'm back with the facts givin' it back to you
Don't let 'em jack you up, back you up,
crack you up and pimp smack you up
You gotta learn to hold ya own
they get jealous when they see ya with ya mobile phone
But tell the cops they can't touch this
I don't trust this when they try to rush I bust this
That's the sound of my tool you say it ain't cool
my mama didn't raise no fool
And as long as I stay black I gotta stay strapped
& I never get to lay back
'Cause I always got to worry 'bout the pay backs
some punk that I roughed up way back
comin' back after all these years
rat-tat-tat-tat-tat that's the way it is uhh

Come on come on
That's just the way it is
Things'll never be the same
That's just the way it is
aww yeah
[Repeat]x2

All you need to know about rap

Hi There
It has been a while since I wrote the last entrance.
Today I wanna talk you about a good American fact , Rap.
American Rap started in the states 30 years ago, and right now is the most popular music around the country and also is very known internationally.
Everyone has in mind a little idea about rap, but only few people really know the difference between rap and crap. What I'm trying to say is that even dough there are a lot of interesting and serious rapers, there are also a lot of fake rapers, which, this the last ones, are a shame for the real rappers.
There are two different ways of classifying the American rappers; by the coast, or by the ages.
Basically the rappers from the west coast( L.A) are more famous than the east coast(N.Y & N.J) artist, with some exceptions.
Definitely and without no exception the old school rapers, or also known as the 90's rapers are way better than the rapers who sing now.
As almost everything in this world, rap is degenerating, the best rapers where from the early 90's. Those rapers were serious and they made up originals rimes with a very critical lyrics, talking about social issues cuz they use to live in the ghetto. Also, old school rapers use to be gangsters who dedicated their money to fight the police and help poor people out. A example of a good raper was TUPAC, he got shot to death eleven years ago when he was 25. He use to control a militia called black panther, while he was a rap star. That was the way it used to be, the rapers used to be black activist in favor of the black cause, and they used to write songs about how the black people deserved respect.
Right now the rapers are all shit, they sing about cars and women, they don't rap about social issues.
So, I only listen to the old rapers, especially three of them Eazy-E, Notorious B.I.G and Tupac, all three are dead, the first one because of AIDS, and the other two they got shot by the cops.
