Too Shai To Speak? I Don't Think So


NO PLACE TO BE FREE...

there's no room to play
no place to be free
nowhere to take me
so I can just be me

so much time to spare
but nothing to do

why young boys out here trying to be men
when really they don't have what it takes within?

no fathers just examples to follow

young ladies just don't know what to do
with belly shirts on... trying to be grown
what does that say to you?

there's no room to play
no place to be free
nowhere to take me
so I can just be me

so much time to spare
but nothing to do

people blame it on the music
they blame it on the video games
not knowing that their environment is from where it came

everyone yelling, "LET'S MAKE CHANGE!"
but never stepping up

stop buying those games
don't buy their CDs

make an effort

and

people

will

infact

CHANGE

--Shai, August 2007

Find some GREEN, some HOPE, some AIR HERE
