Look Around

[Cheryl 'Pepsi' Riley singing] [Stic.man] Beatnuts, dead prez [Cheryl 'Pepsi' Riley] What I wanna sayyy [Chorus: Stic.man & M-1] Everytime I look around, I see So much drama goin down Everytime I look around, I see So much fakeness goin down [Verse 1: Stic.man] Why I'ma- be stingy when I could share? Why I'ma- be hateful if I could care? Why would I hate my own? Or forsake my own? Why would I- fuck around and get a jake on my chrome? I wouldn't- have to stick you if we all could eat It wouldn't be no need for beef Dyin over streets we don't even own anyway You could get bucked off anyday We behind enemy lines Y'all still writing Hennessy rhymes While I'm tryna find a good price for a nine Feel like my life on the line That's why a nigga be hype all the time Ready for the revolution at the drop a'a dime [M1] I got a duty to have security for my niggas My duty to serve the beautiful black sistas A duty to stand wit' anybody that's wit' us And fully criticize all bullshittas There should be awards presented to niggas who fight back Like Panther jackets, or sistas who light gats I'm a full-blooded warrior, ready for change Recognize any soldier that's doin the same Because I love who I am, and that means everything to me My life ain't worth a damn unless I'm dealin with reality When I look myself in the eyes, it's just me And I ain't gotta tell nobody no lies, I feel free And I would rather deal with the truth and falsehood Than bein fake with my people and claimin' 'it's all good' You can't run away from ya self, so that's useless If your word is bond, then you don't have to make excuses [Chorus: Stic.man & M-1] Everytime I look around, I see So much drama goin down --Hold up!
