Asher Roth, Heather Grey - Me First lyrics

What to make of all
This craziness? Kinda strange
Gotta pay to live
I guess that's just the way it is
But, it's dangerous and rather expensive
When it ain't making sense
The list is rather extensive
Especially we decedents of the same genes
Homo sapiens
So I thought we on the same team
But, I hate to see us take
A knee because he can't breathe
We scream and wе stamp feet
Like a stampede, nah, man, this can't bе
Canned peas in pantries for
Families that can't eat
All this heat, need a canteen
Got me antsy, like a sneeze in a pan-D
E-M-IC with nothing to do
Been stuck in a room in
Search of something to snoop


While my eyes stay glued to
The views on the screen
For eight hours a day, seven days of the week
As if my mind is asleep while
I'm trying to keep up
A positive vibe, what if they're lying to me?
Am I dying to reach some desired relief?
Will you prime the mystique 'til
You find that your peace
Ain't always me, me, me first?
Off the greed, call it "we" work
Often lead with a knee jerk
Off the weed, I can see Earth
Only seeing dirt
People be only fleas and fur
What's he infer? Me and her, even her
Birds and bees leavin'
Isn't E-L-E what we deserve?
Need to see it first to believe it works
That's the curse that lets the evil lurk
Word

Could you turn it off? I've seen enough
How much longer we gon' keep it up?
Why won't anybody say "Stop"?
Could you turn it off? I've seen enough
How much longer we gon' keep it up?
Why won't anybody say "Stop"?

Could you turn it off? I've seen enough
How much longer we gon' keep it up?
Why won't anybody say "Stop"?
