Too many of us

Makin, quick fast E rash decisions 

Thinkin we livin when really we just killin ourselves tryin to fit in

To their definition of 

prosperity and wealth

Look around, who's really carrying the belt?

 

Its time we stop carin so much about materialistic things and more about what the future may bring

Will we even get to see another spring 

 

~the worlds tryna tell us something~ 

 

But we aint listenin

We weighin it down and 

Sooner or later its gon knock us off 

Cuz we so stupid 

We act like we dont know 

 

~You aint suppose ta bite the hand that feed ya~

 

We need new leaders, better teachers

Peace and love alone cant free us

 

We need brains and smarts 

And i aint talkin bout the kind that invent things like microsoft 

 

Yea we been growin and showin off but we aint developin at the same rate

 

We done left behind our common sense and instead we bangin each other with bloody fists 

 

Its time for us, as a people to GET A GRIP!

cant you see the world is sick and tired of our insolence

In other words sick and tired of our ISH!

 

Its too damn many of us

Not to be able to provoke change

 

A quarter a dime a penny a nickel or two 

 

Its time for us as a people to figure out what we are going to do

 

Its too many of us.... Its time to make a move.
