Key Lyrics

Put it on TV, put it in movies, put it in our face

These notions and ideas and citizens live in this age

I chuckle just like all of y'all, absurdity, after all

Takes money to get it running and money for trees to fall

Imagine for a second all the people are colored, please

Imagine for a second all the people in poverty

No matter the skin tone, culture or time zone

Think the ones who got it would even think to throw you a bone?

Move you out your neighbourhood, did they find you a home?

Not safer, probly no place to
