Juice (Requiem for a Dream)
We all got to have a dream Nothing's impossible you just got to build steam Stay on your course keep running like a stream So even when they scheme we were born to reign supreme We all shine like stars in the sky But you'll never know how far you reach unless you try Our teachers need to teach, our leaders need to lead Life is beautiful even when we bleed
I guess you're never too young to die The hollows fly they ask why reaching for the sky When so many mother's cry Then these mother fuckers wonder why we occupy Where we wrestle with the devil settled in the ghettos Pedal to the metal either melting pots or kettles In our vessels we're rebels only without the medals So I'm through with the puppets I'm aiming at Geppetto They play our heartstrings; this is a rebel's song So many caught up in the game but they play along Preying on the weak when they know it's wrong Of course we got to stand our ground but we're staying strong In a nation petrified and can't face the music Killing prophets for profits your auto-tunes are useless The politicians got our future's hanging by their nooses How am I a nuisance when I know where the truth is? While overseas they're burning Korans In the streets they bring heat and I ain't talking Lebron So how do you console a mom? Who just lost a son so they're praying for Trayvon After the dawn there's light to carry on Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Silence on the lawn but hope is never gone The pressure's on the presses pressing along It's depressing how the press can press right into wrong On eye open watching the fox and the peacock I see BS like cheating ads for Reebok There's no church in the jungle where they heat rock Up town we're soul survivors like Pete Rock Clueless news networks are the arms Of big corporations spinning lies out of yarn So fast and furious but who was selling arms? Without heroes the bureaus are causing more harm
They package candidates like toothpaste and cars Politicians talk freedom with millions behind bars The lesser of two evils is never a democracy From Bush to Barack the bureaucracy's still hypocrisy So Lady Justice is blind to the malice One hand on the Bible while she sips from a poisoned chalice Everyday the police use excessive force And get away cause the system has no remorse That's why every hood is sponsored by coke Do the math youngsters walk around with pockets full of hope No Jimmy Iovine when they got you in the scope So blacks and Latinos can barely even cope The War on Drugs is a war on the people They keep us out of dorms we're sick of cells and the needles And they've been profiting ever since Prison is a business, ask Merrill Lynch
