Aw yeah, time for us to unite, all tribes
Uh, Hispanic brothers, Black brothers
Mexicanos, ha, know how it go, know why?
In the ways of the world today
It's so easy to stray away
Tryin' to free our minds from all the drugs and crime
Material things keep us blind
The ways of the world today
It's so easy to stray away
Tryin' to free our minds from all the drugs and crime
Material things keep us blind
I hear the souls of the fallen soldiers
Callin' for Jehovah, bitten by the king cobra
And boa constrictors, which can vic ya
Number hoes in liquor stores
Cops who handcuff us in a figure four
I try to endure, but when it rains it pours
Amongst the pure and the poor, I'm sure it's war
God bless the child, born naked and wild
Life hectic and foul, I used to watch crowds bow
Until I was exiled for miles
Amongst the land of reptiles and the Gentiles
Try not to lose the mental, abuse the gin for a while
Takin' straight shots, for my brother behind the gates locked
Beaten bad by the state cops
Stripped of our language, walk around nameless
Amongst the strangers, a heart full of anguish
Taught life is dangerous, Devil cops to aim at us
Society to gain our trust, fuck a 9 to 5
I squeeze a 9 to 5-0, and watch 'em die slow
'Cause you know that I know
In the ways of the world today
It's so easy for us to stray away
Got to free our minds from all the drugs and crime
Material things keep us blind
Stop killin' your own, hittin' your peeps with sticks and stones
If the negative roams, it's what the babies bring home
Teach 'em, self-condomin' in the dome
Make the brain the stronger bone
Why pull a muscle when it's tussle, recone
All your hell is a hot kettle, burnin' 'cause I'm black
My realm is shellac, my wooden floors got a crack
Polonium, it's layin' sprayed with the plutonium
Landmines are blowin' 'em, nuclear uranium
I'm aimin' at them with high beams, grenades explodin' them
Walkin' through my war field, you yield to my kill
Regurgitate to a level, when you're ill
I see the blood spill, Aspirin me the pill
In the ways of the world today
It's so easy for us to stray away
You got to free our minds from all the drugs and crime
Material things keep you blind
Keep us blind, it's keepin' us blind
This one is for my brothers and my sisters, fathers and mothers
Y'all money lovers, killin' one another
Some think the life of a millionaire's the way to go
Chasin' hoes through tunnel, streets, vertigo
Rather spend they dough on weed, cars, gold
And expensive clothes, instead of somethin' black owned
They pack chrome, kill where they live at
And still gotta go back home
Catch the jewels from the Maccabees
With tracks from my honeycomb
Ways of the world, got girls on they knees
Shorties showin' they privacy for a bag of weed
Before she had a seed, and bit off the greed
Off the money tree, can it be this world loves simplicity?
Negativity was the city, plus the slaves
Around me, lost in Kings County
(We're about to be like lost in Kings County)
In the ways of the world today
It's so easy to stray away
Tryin' to free our mind from all the drugs and crime
Material things keep us blind
The ways of the world today
It's so easy to stray away
Just tryin' to free our minds, the drug and crime
The ways of the world, the ways of the world
(End of the world)
The ways of the world today
It's so easy to stray away
Tryin' to free our minds from the drugs and crime
Material things keep us blind
