Life

* provides background vocals [Hook: Frukwan] Yo, what's the meaning of life? Yo, somebody please tell me.. What's the meaning of life? Yo, somebody gots to help me Yo, what's the meaning of life? Yo, somebody please tell me.. [Frukwan] I look inside the mirror and look in myself, I'm hopin' for help Everyday I'm hopin' for a brand new strife The shores of North America, I'm bound to survive Though I'm not the same, yo I carry a gift Tricked and sold his cargo on the bowels of ships But yo, I got my pride, tighten up my stand Lookin' at the stars, the original man.. Never thought that it would ever come to this Migrate really wasn't a time when life was great I wanna go home to the Bering Straights A place where I know where my kid's is safe Thoughts of runnin' foul like a rampant disease Yet, my skin tone really couldn't bring the ease Gettin' weaker by the day, months and years Thousands of years we reign, but now I shed a tear [Chorus: Frukwan] Yo, what's the meaning of life? Yo, somebody please tell me.. What's the meaning of life? Yo, somebody gots to help me Yo, what's the meaning of life? Yo, but do you know? [Frukwan] Inhale and exhale the breath of mist Each and every day a new way to exist Don't wanna use a gun, shoot drugs and dope Don't wanna wear a cross, 'cuz it brings no hope In the beginnin' as we know, started back in the land Well defined, their complexion was just like mines Come to find we was lead and upon direct Now we cheat, steal and kill and lost all respect How much pain would you take before you break the chain? Most of us don't even care, we was planted with fear We say the babies are the future, but what's the fuss? Broken homes, growin' up, they act worse than us Since we all been double-crossed, sins we wear with pride Believe the lies, yet, still ain't open our eyes Lookin' forward to the day that I fast and pray These is questions that I always say [Chorus] [Frukwan] Goin' through a struggle, yeah it's hard at first Bein' put down, shunned, ragged, tagged and dragged The inner strength leave the soul through a body of one Can't be mad, yo, I'm glad, cuz I know where I'm from Priceless, I'm like a treasure, I can't be touched Made an image of myself from the grains of dust Mold and shape the woman with the curves of a snake Travel lightyears away and then return to base Eliminatin' evil's more like a daily chore Teachin' my ways, that's how I spend most of my days Balance attack, never been scared to be black Manifestin' only actual facts Savin' the kids, spreadin' love, yo, that's how to life Justice is my reward for the acts that I did Think about all the things in time, seek and you'll find Yo, I wanna go home, I got's to know [Hook 2X]
