[00:44.60] Everyone's ashamed of the youth cuz the truth look strange
[00:48.37] And for me it's reversed we left them a world that's cursed and it hurts
[00:52.40] Cuz any day they'll push the button
[00:57.91] And all good men like malcolm x and bobby hutton died for nottin
[01:00.57] Don't it make you get teary the world looks dreary
[01:04.46] When you wipe your eyes see it clearly
[01:06.75] There's no need for you to fear me
