No more time to pass time 'cause these are the last rhymes

'cause we're living in the last times

They wanna go to war more wars to come

But most of us fight more wars than one

Discrimination in the racial nation

While they destroy our strong foundation

Nature's balance is way off balance

They tip the scale now it's no more silence

The hole in the ozone layer is outta control

But they wanna fight for more oil and gold

Unemployment i got laid off

The streets is the last resorts to get paid off

For more more mint no doe for rent

I gotta shed blood to make a red cent

Maybe i should ask the president

Somebody give me the president

But he don't want to hear it it's out of the question

'cause in my section it's worse than recession

So i go to a rich neighborhood and play robin hood

Take from the bad and give to the good

First i go to benson hurst steal a benz snatch a purse

Pick up my friends that's when it gets worse

'cause i need government and they need government

Alot of mint spent now i gotta pay rent

Who makes the most dead presidents in the projects

You're gonna get robbed and wrecked

I parked up the block to plot on a kid that made a knot

Let's get him for all he got

I approached him slow like i was a base head

Put the fo-fifth to his face and said

You see those kids over there wit the hoods

Walk to them real slow and give them the goods

First the gun and the doe and crush the jumbos

One false move and no one knows

'cause i got a silencer to hush the bust

And i'm in a rush so hush the fuss

Plus the poison you fed will no longer spread

You good as dead i'm a fill your head wit lead

That's when i pushed him into his building

To murder him but i remember the children

We gotta teach the children everyday keep a song

Show them the light teach them right from wrong

Make some sense so they can carry on

Teach the children

We gotta teach the children so that they can sing along

Understand the words in this song

Can't be done when we're gone so "

Teach the children save the nation

I see the destruction the situation

They're corrupt and their time's up soon

But they'll blow it up and prepare life on the moon

Sounds like total recall

But who gotta spaceship you get it we fall

So hope for the best and expect the worst

The end is near and it's u-n-i verse

The one's that interfere wit nature

Labeled you limited and underrate ya

His plans over rule when he separates ya

Now it's u-n-i verse the one that hates ya

So we gotta let them know we're hip to the script

Change the skit or we're about to flip

'cause we want access to happiness

Livin' the good life and much success

Equal opportunity

Self awareness and unity

Education the kids need a sculpture

Teach them the abacus and their culture

And that'll help stop the robbing raping and killing

Poison neighborhoods are illing

But they import more keys from across seas

A drug disease hits the streets wit ease

So keep on building 'cause we gotta keep building

Till the answers are filled in

And make sure you don't stop till then

And if you do remember the children
