Change

[Intro] [News caster speaking]

In entertainment news; urban music sales have gone down considerably over the last five years

This decline has caused major concern with the record labels within the music industry

In today's news another shooting in the city has brought the total number of murders to 921

An increase of 12% over the last year. It's time for change

[Verse One] [Promise]

I feel like I put out so many songs

I've been out so very long

They notice my flow every show that I'm on

I make hits but no, I'm no Barry Bonds

I am not the best

But I flow solo, got my own logo ironed on my chest

I flew so low so if you won't go

And speak to people in need, dying and depressed

Then I gotta rap for the people workin' 9 to 5

Dyin' alive, tired at the desk

So they takin' pills, just to pay the bills

Cause now-a-days birds ain't flyin' from their nest

They're scared of heights

We're at an all time low

We quick to breed, but we're all dyin' slow

All I know is I already paid my dues

I'm just sayin' it's time for change

[Hook] [Probz]

Change

Come on, let us try something that we never did before

Wooah

It's time for change

Come on, let us have something that we need

Woooah

It's time for change

[Verse Two] [Supastition]

For way to many years I've been unnoticed

Now my bitterness, I'm trying to get rid of it and control it

When I compose it

Everyone focus on them tough actin', crack slingin' gun toters

The rap scene is an endangered species

Everyone with Cubase is slangin' a CD

It Takes A Nation Of Bootlegers To Hold Us Back

The game ain't been the same since PE

Your mixtape? Is downright scolded by the media

Your album? People downloaded and deleted it

This is what I waited all my life for?

To get appreciated you got to go overseas with it

Rappin' for Japanese and Norwegians

Back home they don't even care if you even breathin

You know it's a shame when you go from trying to blow

To tryin' to break even

It's time for a change

[Hook]

[Verse Three] [Royce Da 5'9"]

We can't be stayin' the same

Therefore we must evolve, trust me y'all

I've been around the world and back

Been an eyewitness to

Many things, I'm feelin' God's existence

Gangstas bangin'

Users shootin'

Slangers slangin'

Bush recruitin'

We should be goin' to war with racist teachin'

A happy Catholic child hates his preacher

Diamonds, gold

Don Imus knows, you shouldn't go

"Boy those some nappy head hoes"

You blame hip hop like it's our fault

I ain't sayin' we ain't supposed to do our part

You should be more clear what's in your CD player

If we need censorship, he needs prayer

Why is we still tryin' to divide the game?

We should be tryin' to unify it the same

Think it's time for change

[Hook]
