DEAD PREZ - Helpful lyrics
rate me[Pulse of the people]
[If it feel good to ya]
[It's okay to smile]
can't get but so far in this life being selfish.
a free spirit
a giving heart
that's what wealth is
we rich when we recognize the power that's within
it's not all about the money
it's the time that we spend
it's the hand that we lend
to a friend when we can
it's the kind words you gave to that homeless man
without judging that man
it's the fact that you gave;
and showed compassion 'cause he humbly asked you for change
i know the blessings I receive is not just for me
a shared blessing comes back to you
that's what I believe
to help someone in need
to throw down some rope
to be a ray of hope
ya know?
sometimes you gotta help somebody
sometimes you gotta help somebody
sometimes you just gotta be helpful
when life gets stressful
sometimes you gotta help somebody
sometimes you gotta help somebody
what goes around is gonna come back 'round
what goes around is gonna come back 'round
when you help somebody
donate my extra clothes
to a clothing drive.
help the lady cross the street
bring her bags inside.
send a letter to a prisoner to lift his spirit.
be a mentor to a child 'cause it takes a village.
lend a hand, help a brother
that I learned the hard way
all for one
one for all
it got to be the squad way
the early bird get the worm
it's corny but it's true
first impressions last forever
careful how you move
first you crawl
then you walk
the 1 before the 2
nothing new under the sun
the golden rule
lazy people work the hardest
that's my motivation
everything in moderation
even moderation
yo
yo, when you put out your hand,
is it to give or to receive?
see what goes around will come back around
I do believe
that the positive and negative is relative to where you live
not from experience
that's what we tell the kids
'cause they are the seeds
the stronger the root
the stronger the tree
if we eat from the fruit
the stronger we be
if we do it today
tomorrow we free
