all these politics, it's a deception

falling on america's weak

they say we're keeping ourselves down

we sold out on half ass trailer park dreams

so now we're living with rednecks, racists -blkwhite hatred

i'm trying so hard to love my nation

underfed, overbred, i just can't get ahead

it's not about the races or the revelations



people shooting up the blocks because of empty pockets

fighting with the cops because of empty pockets

selling what we got because of empty pockets

blaming every other face for our empty pockets



and i think we need a shift in direction

better wake your ass out of sleep out of sleep and stop juding others

who struggle just like you and me

cause now we're living with hard times, sex crimes

friends are hard to find . i'm trying not to lose my mind

in the low-class, high-class in the middle sinking fast

i know you wanna blame it on my education



i'm hanging on the block because of empty pockets

fighting with the coops because of empty pockets

selling what i got because of empty pockets

blaming every other face to our empty pockets

lost without a trace because of empty pockets

living in a different place because of empty pockets



empty pockets

empty pockets

empty pockets
