Better Place to Live

With everything that has occurred within a year
Sometimes I feel like something has to give
'Cause I know this world is not as safe as it appears
So I wanna make a better place to live
We all tryna find a better place to live
I could paint a landscape with music that I give
Paint a world full of peace, love, and happiness
First I gotta live in it before I hand you all the script
Lost a couple legends last year, moment of silence
Bowie in the skies, I hope he rooting for my shit
Carrie, you a Queen
Been crushing since I was 5 and
I’ll fight with the rebels till force is restored to my ship
Media a dark cloud over me
These days never know what to believe
'Cause everybody talks, no one ever leads
'Cause everybody looks, no one ever sees
Finding out that freedom ain’t free
Fighting in the streets, we got drones over seas
We got cracks in the system and they started showing up
And the news is in cahoots while they tryna cover up, fuck
With everything that has occurred within a year
Sometimes I feel like something has to give
'Cause I know this world is not as safe as it appears
So I wanna make a better place to live
I don’t mean to make shit bleed
But to make change, gotta know the problem underneath
Spread love in our homes, let it flow into the streets
Screaming on the hill side, let it echo to the peaks
Let 'em know that we won’t rest without peace
Though too many had to go to expose this breach
If not for us, then for generations to come
Though we’ve had dark days, hope rising up like the sun
I’ma ride for the change, I’ma fight for the love
Sat down to write this and I laced up my gloves
And I step in the ring, put the world on my back
Steady throwin' punches till it’s all in the past
Tryna kill a couple words like hate, ignorance out
Send a knockout to the words that really taking us down
I believe in the people, I don’t believe in the wedge
They tryna drive in between us, that ain’t what it really is
With everything that has occurred within a year
Sometimes I feel like something has to give
'Cause I know this world is not as safe as it appears
So I wanna make a better place to live
