People Change

People change for that money - you can tell as soon as you meet them

And 2pac wanted changes but honestly, I don’t see them

And sometimes it feels hopeless, but I've got to maintain focus

Because sometimes people change for the better – everyone’s too blind to notice

I’m turning on the nightly news and they start off with “good evening”

Then talk about murder and robbery so honestly I can’t see it

How am I supposed to feel in my surroundings?

Just take a good look around me

Got a fever and my head is just pounding

I’m sick because this shit is astounding

Like why the heck do I bother? Want to pack

My bags and get out of state

And one my friends is so desperate

She’s doing cocaine just to lose weight

I lie awake and I’m restless, can’t sleep

Because there’s too many questions

Please let me get the smith and wesson

And I’ll put an end to this stressing

Got a friend caught right in the streetlight

How do you expect me to sleep at night?

We all need to start making changes

That way we can start to see peace, right?

It might’ve been you to make the first move

Lead by example - it’ll go smooth

Don’t know how much more I can go through

You say there’s change but there’s no proof

People change for that money - you can tell as soon as you meet them

And 2pac wanted changes but honestly, I don’t see them

And sometimes it feels hopeless, but I've got to maintain focus

Because sometimes people change for the better

Everyone’s too blind to notice

The one snorting coke on the changing table

In the back of the wal-mart bathroom

Is usually the one that wanted to have fun

At the trap but sat in the back of the classroom

The one writing letters to the penitentiary

I’m calling her the dope of the century

Giving up life for a man she’ll never see again

That’s the ish that doesn't make sense to me

I try to relax myself but I have to tell everything

Happening making me stressed

I see them dropping out of school, they were failing

Anyway but I bet they can pass a pregnancy test

It’s all work, no recess, no playtime if you stick to crime

I ain’t hard to find, if you think I’m lying, try to prove me

Wrong and I’ll be right every time

It’s hard out just thinking bout, these

People changing, yo check this out

A fan came up and thanked me, for pointing out

Little things people can’t see

People ask me all the time why I do music

Because I've got a mind - I ain’t scared to use it

I’ma go pursue it, people are changing

You think I’m crazy but they see right through us

People change for that money

You can tell as soon as you meet them

And 2pac wanted changes but honestly, I don’t see them

And sometimes it feels hopeless

But I've got to maintain focus

Because sometimes people change for the better

Everyone’s too blind to notice
