Changes
2Pac
I see no changes
Wake up in the mornin and ask myself
Is life worth living, should I blast myself
I'm trying to be a boy and even worse I'm black
My stomach hurts so I'm looking for a purse to snatch
Cops give a damn about our needs bro
Pull the tigger kill a nigger, he's a hero
Givin crack to the kids, who the hell cares
One less hungry mouth on the welfare
First ship em dope and let 'em deal with brothers
Give em guns, step back watch them kill each other
It's time to fight back, thats what Huey said
Two shots in the dark, now Huey's dead
I got love for my brother
But we could never go nowhere unless we share with each other
We gotta start making changes
Learn to see me as your brother 'stead of 2 distant strangers
And thats how its sposed to be
How can the devil take a brother if he's close to me
I let it go back to when we played as kids
But things change, thats the way it is
That's just the way it is
Things will never be the same
That's just the way it is
Ahh yeah
That's just the way it is
Things will never be the same
That's just the way it is
Ahh yeah
I see no changes
All i see is racits faces
Misplaced hate makes disgrace for races
We under
I wonder what it takes to make this
More better place lets erase the wasted
take the evil out the people they'll be acting right
Cause both black and white are smokin crack tonight
And the only time we chill is when we kill each other
It takes skills to be real trying to heal each other
And i know it seems heaven sent
We aint preped to see a black president
It aint a secret dont conceal the facts
The penatentury is back and its filled with blacks
But some things will never change
Try to show another way, but this thing, and then the dope gang
Now tell me what's a mother to do
Being real dont appeal to the brother in you
You gotta opperate the easy way
"I made a G today"
But you made it in a sleazy way
Sellin crack to a kid
"I gotta get paid"
Well hey, well thats the way it is
That's just the way it is
Things will never be the same
That's just the way it is
Ahh yeah
That's just the way it is
Things will never be the same
That's just the way it is
Ahh yeah
We gotta make a change
It's time for us as a people to start making some changes
Lets change the way we eat, lets change the way we live
And lets change the way we treat each other
you see the old way wasnt working
So its on us to do what we gotta do to survive
And still i see no changes
Cant a brother get a little peace
There's war on the streets
And a war in the middle east
'stead a war on poverty
They got a war on drugs so the police can bother me
And I aint never did a crime i aint have to do
But now i am back with the facts given em back to you
Dont let them jack you up back you up
Crack you up and pimp smack you up
Ya gotta learn to hold your own
They get jealous when they see you with your mobile phone
But tell the cops they cant touch this
I dont trust this when they try to rush I bust this
At the sound of my tune, You say it aint cool
My momma didnt raise no fool
And its wrong that this stayed black
I got to stage trap and i never get to lay back
Cause i alwayz gotta worry bout the pay back
Some thug that i roughed up way back
Commin back after all these years
Rat a tat tat tat tat
Thats the way it is
That's just the way it is
Things will never be the same
That's just the way it is
Ahh
That's just the way it is
Things will never be the same
That's just the way it is
Ahh yeah
Some things will never change
