The People Lyrics - Knowmads

This life is love this life is God this life is no regrets 

This life is pain this life is work this life is blood and sweat 

God told me it'd take blood sweat and tears 

Trying to live that rap life, let me buzz debt and fears 

Strange people start to hate, success coming near 

It's a shame when we're stressed, and possessed by our fear (uh) 

See it clear through the man in the mirror 

Trying to make a change for everyone, not make them feel inferior 

Cause I don't know if we can help or not 

But I can smell the shot on the corner even before the shell could drop 

Guess you gotta let your metal pop, while we watching every felon walk cause nobody ever tells the cops 

Seldom caught so they're always selling rock 

"Do we live in a melting pot?" is like asking if Hell is hot 

Yeah we're compelled to stop, taking L's and getting locked 

Cause we understand the system, but just can't connect the dots 

Other people divided in the pigments of a fragment nation 

I'm just a voice, a figment of your imagination 

It's your choice, be different and find your aspiration 

Instead of being a full trick by fascination 

Train of thought, get on track, now we leave the station 

Goal for 2012, better conversation 

Between nations so they can make reparations 

Politicians never did live up to my expectations 

Feeling gifted 'cause music is more than recreation 

Trying to manage my business between these celebrations 

Our invention is intuition and innovation 

I saw this vision in my head and now I'm on the stage 

I wrote this wisdom so we can carry on through the ages 

Still they always used to judge me by my age 

It's a shame we ain't aware of our saviors 

Some stay blind from the womb to the grave 

So keep these rhymes in the tomb of the ancients 

And no matter what happens, keep the faith 

'Cause one day we gonna learn to save the planet, God 

My kids will learn to fly to outerspace 

'Cause they keep you trapped inside metal cages 

So take these bars, break them down, and we'll escape 

And if the evils make you start to hate your peoples 

Just remember God is love and you'll be safe
