Spitty - Sit.Stop.Think. (SpokenWord#1) lyrics
[Spitty - Sit.Stop.Think. SpokenWord#1 lyrics]
Bright sky's mean sunny days
Young kids come out to play
Wait just stop right there
I'm bout to get deep cuz life's not fair
I mean, lemme put it this way
Children dying who never made a mistake
Matter fact they didn't get a chance of life
Thirst hunger pain and strife
Only words we can associate
With half the population
And we're sitting over
Here happily contemplatin'
Should I buy these hundred dollar shoes
Or two hundred dollar jacket
Sitting here complaining about how
We gotta pay taxes?
Sitting here on this leather couch in an A
C home, sitting here crying cuz we
Lost our cell phone?
Maybe we should sit ourselves
Elsewhere across the globe
Leave the luxuries of our lives
Strip out that fancy robe
And try carrying water across a dry land
Work in a factory supplying
Demand at every command
Mining diamonds for some girl
In another country, if I try to run away I
Know that they'll come hunt me
Tormented and tortured raped and abused
Worshiping a dictator thoughts all confused
Just consider the life that
Other people live
Seven billion weak oh what I wouldn't give
To change these poverty percentages
Words like disease I'd never
Have to mention it
Sometimes you the people just
Don't even care
The life we live is so great
If you just sit and compare
Sometimes us the people just waste
Our lives without meaning
Don't even try to help
Others we're self-centred meaning
Every time I spit a line a
Kid died from preventable causes
But we just let them die and
Move on to the next topic
Sitting at our desk focused
On making a profit
And every new item that comes out
We gotta go and cop it
Stop it, don't make it me myself and I
It's not your family but what if
You're family we're about to die
Would you care then? yeah I
Know the answer well
Just cuz we're far apart doesn't
Mean we can't help
And I know I sound preachy
Talking bout changing the world
I just wish equal chances for
Every boy and girl, wish people weren't born
Into unstable conditions
Wish governments helped their people and
The truth was never missin'
Wish people didn't feel the need
To torment the same kind
Guess I just have too many
Unrealistic thoughts on my mind
Guess I'll continue my own life
And satisfy only me
The joys of growing up guess
Some kids will never see
Guess they're meant to die without any care
Cuz us tryna make a
Difference? Now that's rare
Young kids come out to play
Wait just stop right there
I'm bout to get deep cuz life's not fair
I mean, lemme put it this way
Children dying who never made a mistake
Matter fact they didn't get a chance of life
Thirst hunger pain and strife
Only words we can associate
With half the population
And we're sitting over
Here happily contemplatin'
Should I buy these hundred dollar shoes
Or two hundred dollar jacket
Sitting here complaining about how
We gotta pay taxes?
Sitting here on this leather couch in an A

Lost our cell phone?

Leave the luxuries of our lives
