Hey Young World Lyrics - Singles - L.g. Wise

INTRO 

(LG) Edi Outlaw, what's up dude 

(EDI) Not much dog, what's up Wise 

(LG) Yo I'm chillin--Yo, I'm glad you could make it on this one 

(EDI) No doubt I'll come for the truth, dog 

(LG) Word, it's time for a change 

(EDI) So lets give it to 'em man 

VERSE 1 (LG Wise) 

Generation in a curse 

And they feelin' sad 

Too many shorties are in da hearse 

Before they knowin they dad 

How many sons will never know they daddys 

So young and confused 

So its the streets where they learn to live 

So when they choose then they lose 

Its like the day that Pac died 

A place in your heart you gonna cry 

I cant lie 

The Lord will come and wipe da tears from yo eyes 

But Jesus shed his blood to save a thug 

Then they got us bustin slugs 

Them haters bust his head 

But he still showed em love 

Its the thugs that need yo love 

Its the thugs that need yo hug 

Lord we need you on des streets 

Thats why we dying from des slugs 

So me and da Outlawz 

We come father asking you for forgiveness 

So you can come into our heart 

And help us savin our children 

Now hey young world 

from Lauderdale to da Bay 

Now hey young world 

from MIA to L.A. 

Now hey young world 

from Carolina to VA 

Lord hear these thugs crying and come and save us today 

CHORUS 

To all my shorties on da blocks (hey young world) 

To all the thugs slangin rocks (hey young world) 

Even if you on lock down 

All my ladies the world is yours 

(2X) 

VERSE 2 (EDI) 

These days it don't pay to play 

You better make your way 

Cause life ain't guaranteed to you young dudes 

In the wildlife 

Still livin childlike 

Criminal minds of the juvenilles up lovin to wild out 

Born with an anger from where 

He don't even know 

400 hundred years of oppression 

And it's bound to show 

They said he murdered his teacher on the last day of school 

One shot from a 22 

Left them blue 

What to do 

Hey young world don't believe what they tellin you 

you can prevail livin in hell 

you ain't a failure 

Hey young world I know the times is hard 

But beleive in the Light it'll get you out of the dark 

Have hustle have smarts 

Must of all have heart 

Never let em see you shed a tear 

My God 

Have hustle have smarts 

Must of all have heart 

And never let em see you shed a tear 

Yeah, Yeah
