lirik lagu k-rino - look around you
open your eyes
see the world for what it really is
[verse 1]
i gotta deal with this lying and perpetrating, stressing and straining
i succeed in procrastinating, point fingers and blaming
the temptation of women, l-st, and the failure to fight it
getting doors slammed in my face and still smiling despite it
learning how to check my ego and accepting correction
the hope of accomplishment mixed with the fear of rejection
the struggle to make my own knowledge reach its eliteness
wanna cry but holding back to show no signs of my weakness
the good and the evil that clash in constant defiance
that live inside of me joined in a unholy alliance
supposed to be patnas who ain’t never down when you need ‘em
the thin line that sits between incarceration and freedom
the ways we praise things and disrespect one another
showing more love to our cars than we show to each other
the deep spiritual famine that we rarely examine
damaging thought mismanagement the hand of satan’s programming
[chorus]
so look around you, put some knowledge into your dome
stop making everybody else rich and go get your own
quit stressing over the salt that individuals drop
don’t be trippin’ when people talk about your trip when they stop
look around you, put some knowledge into your dome
stop making everybody else rich and go get your own
quit stressing over the salt that individuals drop
don’t be trippin’ when people talk about your trip when they stop
[verse 2]
against our own people, we quick to let cappin’ ensue
don’t care about n0body’s problems ’til it happen to you
the genocidal antics, evil commandments that run rampant
the devilish pamphlets handed to man on every campus
envious mental condition that lacks religion
the disproportional percentages of blacks in prison
you won’t show up for a protest, you’ll hide like cowards
but you’ll wait in line to see a concert for two hours
in our community, the arabs and chinese got stores
getting rich off of your black dollar but fool, where yours?
out here hustling, risking, doing time in the tank
hundred and fifty dollar shoes on and not a dime in the bank
some people you only see when they wanna borrow some paper
and then they come up missing when it’s time to return the favor
matters if we roll legit, the profiling won’t cease
white people feel safe, we tense up when we see the police
[chorus]
so look around you, put some knowledge into your dome
stop making everybody else rich and go get your own
quit stressing over the salt that individuals drop
don’t be trippin’ when people talk about your trip when they stop
look around you, put some knowledge into your dome
stop making everybody else rich and go get your own
quit stressing over the salt that individuals drop
don’t be trippin’ when people talk about your trip when they stop
[verse 3]
full scheming and back-dooring, talking but never showing
tryna bring you down with ‘em ‘cause they ain’t got nothing going
tryna poison your dreams with hate and manipulation
blatant statements that [?] spirit-raping your motivation
grew up never trusting and got accustomed to scuffling
don’t let n0body tell you you’ll never amount to nothing
if invalid men with sinful intentions slander you endless
if you let words destroy you, then you was weak to begin with
got problems, survive ‘em, quit judging others and guide ‘em
need to stop looking at people and start looking inside ‘em
why you crying over somebody that’s being untrue?
stressing over a person who ain’t even thinking about you
we make seeds then we break up, our families ain’t building
how you gon’ let a judge decide what’s best for your children
can you overcome and progress? that’s the true test
i avoid the stress and strap on my hater-proof vest
[chorus]
so look around you, put some knowledge into your dome
stop making everybody else rich and go get your own
quit stressing over the salt that individuals drop
don’t be trippin’ when people talk about your trip when they stop
look around you, put some knowledge into your dome
stop making everybody else rich and go get your own
quit stressing over the salt that individuals drop
don’t be trippin’ when people talk about your trip when they stop
