[Mistah F.A.B., Silk-E, Keyshia Cole - All Around The World lyrics]
Pray for Paris, what they tell us
While Nigeria burn schools bombed overseas
Where kids in Syria learn
Islamic leaders being attacked
For political reasons
US spies kidnapped and found
Guilty of treason missles getting tested
America getting ready for war
Meanwhile children in the ghetto gotta
Sleep on the floor
Cause rival gangs shooting guns with
No aim at all police be racial profiling
Tryna blame us all
And with Obama out of office
Ain't no hope for the blacks
2016, can you still believe
They smoking on crack? Bigger than rap
Let's just take a second to focus on facts
50% of minorities in jail and
Most of 'em black
Black lives matter, yeah right
That's just a hoax and an act
Rest in peace to the Jack
Hate I had to say that
Thought it was just in my city
'til I cut on the news
It's happening all around the world
Keyshia tell 'em the truth
Children dying, mother's crying
No one cares, oh it isn't fair
I thought it was just in my hood
But I cut on the news
Everybody's hiding, everybody's crying
This world war, it ain't just in my hood
Oh so you can't see? What
You got on a blindfold?
Too busy in your Benz
Tryna dodge them potholes
Don't know what's going on in
The streets of Chicago
Lil boy killed in an alley
Reason why? Only God knows young boys high
Putting coke in their nostrils
It's a race of babies that hate the ladies
Must have thought it was a lie when
You heard it in Pac's song
His mama strung out and you
Know that his pops gone
The preacher can't reach 'em
He ain't hearing the gospel
Future on his iPhone, this shit is colossal
Christians lost acting like they really
Know where Christ is
World War 3 coming soon with ISIS
Shoe boxes full of letters
All my homies is lifers not just in my hood
From San Quentin to Rikers
Thought it was just in my city
'til I cut on the news
It's happening all around the world
Keyshia tell 'em the truth
Children dying, mother's crying
No one cares, oh it isn't fair
I thought it was just in my hood
But I cut on the news
Everybody's hiding, everybody's crying
This world war, it ain't just in my hood
Black America wake up
We was asleep for too long
Got me feeling like Marvin Gaye
What's going on?
Treyvon down in Florida, to Mike in Ferguson
The next Malcolm or Martin, look
They probably done murdered them
Church shooters get arrested and
Brought in like company
Oscar shot in his back and
Sandra died in custody
KKK get exposed, all members of congress
Russia blame terrorism on known jihadists
While all these rappers argue 'bout
Who is the hottest
I'm tryna teach my daughter
She's an African goddess
The Real Isis was a goddess
Not a terrorist group
Make all our good seem bad
Without telling the truth
Flip all our signs and our
Symbols that resemble the love
Turning to hate groups
Mentally be messing us up
Thought it was just in my city
'til I cut on the news
It's happening all around the world
Keyshia tell 'em the truth
Children dying, mother's crying
No one cares, oh it isn't fair
I thought it was just in my hood
But I cut on the news
Everybody's hiding, everybody's crying
This world war, it ain't just in my hood
While Nigeria burn schools bombed overseas
