[Intro: Betty Wright] You can’t change the world until you change yourself Gotta start somewhere Save us [Verse 1: Ace Hood] There’s a war going on outside, it’s devastating The hoods segregated by cliques and affiliations City full of satans who facing no limitations Turning on the news and it’s poison throughout the nation Kids being kidnapped, teens getting shot up Murder rate higher, continue as bodies pop up Streets done got worser, the world done got colder Many crying out and they could really use a shoulder Amen amen, live a life full of sin I inspire the people that boost desire within Got a message for students, teachers won’t let me attend Paint a horrible image of me, I’m quick to defend What the fuck am I to do cus I’m simply speakin truth? We gotta guard the youth, no excuses to be in school Babies out in Africa prayin for a pair of shoes More food or finer things they never knew Lord knows I won’t change, life’s better God bless the soul and the spirits of Mandela Let’s do it for a cause, we are grateful beyond measures Man with a powerful message behind lectures Damn We're living in hell, good people We're surrounded by pure evil And it's easy to see we need Jesus Please… [Chorus: Betty Wright] Save us Won’t you help me?
