Mike the Mentor (Interlude)

[Verse One] Are we animals? Some suggest We was better as slaves with chains on our chest Nothin' on our brains, no A's on the test Yo Mike, can we make it out the ghetto man? (Yes) What it do? What you do if it's you? They gave us hot water we learned to make stew We had no money we learned to make due Yo Mike, was you born poor like me? (It's true) I bet you should, come back to the hood See everything we built out of what we could Limited resources but from where I stood You would still look at it and say (Good! That's good) Look You from Gary, I'm from Chicago We both should go back two days from tomorrow I don't care how we get there, plane or trolly They need money Mike, c'mon man (I'm sorry) This can't just be words, gotta be action We love the people and they need satisfaction We on the road but we gotta get some traction I'm Rhymefest and his name is (Michael Jackson)
