People change for that money - you can tell as soon as you meet them
And 2pac wanted changes but honestly, I don’t see them
And sometimes it feels hopeless, but I've got to maintain focus
Because sometimes people change for the better – everyone’s too blind to notice
I’m turning on the nightly news and they start off with “good evening”
Then talk about murder and robbery so honestly I can’t see it
How am I supposed to feel in my surroundings?
Just take a good look around me
Got a fever and my head is just pounding
I’m sick because this shit is astounding
Like why the heck do I bother? Want to pack
My bags and get out of state
And one my friends is so desperate
She’s doing cocaine just to lose weight
I lie awake and I’m restless, can’t sleep
Because there’s too many questions
Please let me get the smith and wesson
And I’ll put an end to this stressing
Got a friend caught right in the streetlight
How do you expect me to sleep at night?
We all need to start making changes
That way we can start to see peace, right?
It might’ve been you to make the first move
Lead by example - it’ll go smooth
Don’t know how much more I can go through
You say there’s change but there’s no proof
People change for that money - you can tell as soon as you meet them
And 2pac wanted changes but honestly, I don’t see them
And sometimes it feels hopeless, but I've got to maintain focus
Because sometimes people change for the better
Everyone’s too blind to notice
The one snorting coke on the changing table
In the back of the wal-mart bathroom
Is usually the one that wanted to have fun
At the trap but sat in the back of the classroom
The one writing letters to the penitentiary
I’m calling her the dope of the century
Giving up life for a man she’ll never see again
That’s the ish that doesn't make sense to me
I try to relax myself but I have to tell everything
Happening making me stressed
I see them dropping out of school, they were failing
Anyway but I bet they can pass a pregnancy test
It’s all work, no recess, no playtime if you stick to crime
I ain’t hard to find, if you think I’m lying, try to prove me
Wrong and I’ll be right every time
It’s hard out just thinking bout, these
People changing, yo check this out
A fan came up and thanked me, for pointing out
Little things people can’t see
People ask me all the time why I do music
Because I've got a mind - I ain’t scared to use it
I’ma go pursue it, people are changing
You think I’m crazy but they see right through us
People change for that money
You can tell as soon as you meet them
And 2pac wanted changes but honestly, I don’t see them
And sometimes it feels hopeless
But I've got to maintain focus
Because sometimes people change for the better
Everyone’s too blind to notice
