The Call
Location
Well life is what you make it
We've heard that all before
Never mix that or make it too complicated
We’ve got to many friends out here trying to just make it
Yes Just make it
Not fake it
Not to just say they did that and celebrated
We've got work to do and no one is going to say it
Not just to the mothers
Trying to raise her kids to be the what they can
Not just to the fathers
Looking to be a better man
Because see anyone can be what they fear
And that's the danger all around us
It’s just not so clear
When the fog is gone and the clouds are gray
When our streets are filled with runaways
Where are the fingers that some will point
That need to be to work and not passing joints
I’m going to need you all to comprehend
So grab your cousins, your neighbors, you teachers and all that will
No this not a seminar on how to take action
But together as movement we can stop the traffic
The traffic running in all our minds
Manipulating little girls to walk on blind
They need answers and are calling for help
And our young boys are doing the same as well
Where are our kings on mission to find their queens
And queens on their missions to bring forth great things
Together to bring up their kingdoms
So well all can benefit from the same things
Are scholars, not our scholars?
Are they not cut from the same?
Are they any more than you and I?
Are we not one
Just pushing for a dream
Just ask leaders before us
Just like you and I they had to go through the door...
FOR US
Knocking down statistics and negativity
Our scholars, our leaders; did it for a reason evidently
Now go finish what they didn’t
And be a new leader of the day
With a new scholar in mind
With a new mindset on the line
Remember life is what you make
I’ve said it once again
But don’t be that one
Who didn’t make it the end.
