Now as i flip through this world of mine
Everything is lookin peaceful
Iand'm checkin out these people
The ones thatand's doin good and the ones thatand's doin evil
Now as i flip through this world of mind
Everything is lookin peaceful
Iand'm checkin out these people
Some doin good and others doin evil
I heard somebody say iand'll do anything nowaday to make a buck
Cos niggas are dyin and nobody gives a muthafuck
And you be wantin to trip when i be talkin about murder and thangs
I think itand's obvious that you ainand't never heard of mine
What goes on in the neighborhood
East coast, west coast, ainand't shit turnin out good
Sometimes i wanna cry
And straight put the 9 to my muthafuckin dome and let the bullets fly
But mama said iand'm too strong to break down
And iand'm caught up in another drug shake-down
Cos they think iand'm sellin birds
But iand'm workin 9 to 5 and still ainand't gettin what i deserve
So whoand's fuckin who
Is it that white man or the black man standin next to you
See, most blacks canand't handle power
Get paid and get to changin by the hour
Closin all the doors
Got a little paper, now they wanna treat they people like hoes
Now after takin a look at that
How the fuck you think the white man is supposed to act
See we canand't check the peckerwood
If we canand't treat our own fuckin people good
We wanna pick the fruit, but the fruit ainand't ripe
Yeah, now who got the right to write
Now as i flip through this world of mine
Everything is lookin peaceful
Iand'm checkin out these people
The ones thatand's doin good and the ones thatand's doin evil
Now as i flip through this world of mind
Everything is lookin peaceful
Iand'm checkin out these people
Some doin good and others doin evil
Niggas are gettin fooled by the presidentand's plan
In jail they got a president, but they call him the boss man
The boss man is prejudiced, hurtin em with politics
Better let em out quick or they gonand' cause a riot, bitch
Even if you lock the door they still got the power
Cos the fuckin white house reminds em of the watch tower
The man is watchin over us, steady controllin us
And if we make a move heand's ready to put a hole in us
Everytime i step heand's always around me
To tell the fuckin truth, i feel safer in the county
At least in jail i know what iand'm up against
But everything is a muthafuckin mystery outside the fence
Thinkin that we made it, but we ainand't made it yet
And itand's gettin harder cos the man ainand't givin up shit, bet
Steady lettin us down
And ainand't nobody helpin us out
Now as i flip through this world of mine
Everything is lookin peaceful
Iand'm checkin out these people
The ones thatand's doin good and the ones thatand's doin evil
Now as i flip through this world of mind
Everything is lookin peaceful
Iand'm checkin out these people
Some doin good and others doin evil
Yeah
A new beginning
Big mike
Comin from that swamp
You know
Just kickin it how i feel
And thatand's on the real
