rate me

(Verse)

In the presence of struggle, everyone has hope

But what if we run out?

There's no rich and no poor, no waves on the shore

All the trees burn down, we're ruinin' our own mother

Stomping her right to the ground

Then when we beg for forgiveness, we never walk the while

(Pre-Chorus)

I know you can hear me, I feel you all around

I hope you will answer while I'm praying on the ground

I've got questions, God

Like why don't ya tell us what we're doin' wrong?

(Chorus)

Do you hear me, you hear us?

My city, my people

We calling, we calling, we calling on you

Do you hear me, you hear us?

My city, my people

We calling, we calling, we calling on ya

(Verse)

The streets getting crazy just like the 80'

We're zombies and don't even know it

The sick just get sicker, from cancer and liquor

And nobody cares to control it

We all know what's happenin', sum people only play dumb

But I can't ignore it no mo', I won't run...

(Pre-Chorus)

I know you can hear me, I feel you all around

I hope you will answer while I'm praying on the ground

I've got questions, God

Like why don't ya tell us what we're doin' wrong?

(Chorus)

Do you hear me, you hear us?

My city, my people

We calling, we calling, we calling on you

Do you hear me, you hear us?

My city, my people

We calling, we calling, we calling on ya

(Bridge)

Hands together

Knees on the ground

Heads in the clouds, yeah

Praying out loud!

Lost innocence cuz I'm just lookin'

For clarification on what I'm doing wrong?

(Chorus)

Do you hear me, you hear us?

My city, my people

We calling, we calling, we calling on you

Do you hear me, you hear us?

My city, my people

We calling, we calling, we calling on ya
