Preferred Band/Artist: AKA
Revelation beginnings, circulation to meaning
To the gone I envy you, bet you ain't feeling no pain
A man is born for a bigger purpose than club hoppin' and flossing his game
Stuff your swag and your fame ya'll can keep it
I need music, deal form strength coz these rhythms are life savers
If you paying attention
Hiphop, music for the hopeless
This my heart even though it beats with bits
Through records (untold stories) we mention
Politically changed fate, don’t blame game instead
Free the voice, take a short at being a positive force
I left the block, dream was calling plus I'm starting over
On the phone, your girl wonders whether you'll ever come home
On the stoop, a broken home everybody fins, coz we barely living
They gave us freedom in '94, 16 million on welfare is this the freedom
We asked for unemployment through the roof, migration not regulated
Frustration begets war, why my people starve?
Africa pumps billions to the world but the continent is still poor
In need music, not to dance but to feed the void in me
Lira melody maybe, earthly angels give hope, in this life
Not worth living … I need music to breath
Call God tell him we still here, holding on for as long we can
I need music though x2
Dear father we miss you, mom is falling apart
Got a degree now, but I can’t seem to find a job
Sometimes its hard, all the promises I made but can't keep
I’m sorry
Dear God I'm afraid I'm in a block where I can see jail anyday
Dear Mom I'm a King, cause of you I respect women perfectly
Little girl I'm your father … provider
I’ll die for you
Dear lust who are you … the devil made you for the weak
Hard a dream got a pen
Started writing, hold me down
On my knees let us pray for my land
We need help from the
Drugs and give that little girl a hug
You're my child I'm suppose to shield
Pain reaching you
You my child I’ll give you a choice, if I could speak
I would be your voice
Protect our daughters, if we don’t stand we perish
