Trust Yourself

I've seen my sister down on the street
 She got blisters burning through the sole of her feet
 Working for a man
 Who treats her like a piece of meat
 I've seen my brother just looking for a hit
 Down in the gutter, swearing to God he gonna quit
 Working for a man
 Who doesn't care if he dies or lives
 If you do what you're told
 You better watch who does the tellin'
 Before you believe you gotta see what they're sellin'
 Don't give up your soul to nobody else
 If you wanna be free you gotta trust yourself
 Hey, trust yourself (trust yourself)
 You gotta trust yourself (trust yourself)
 I said trust yourself (trust yourself)
 Trust yourself...
 I've seen my children at the fork of the road
 It makes me wonder which way they goin'
 Live by mama's word
 Or die with a gun in their hand, oh no no no
 If you do what you're told
 You better watch who does the tellin'
 Before you believe you gotta see what they're sellin'
 Don't give up your soul to nobody else
 If you wanna be free you gotta trust yourself
 Trust yourself (trust yourself)
 I said gotta trust yourself (trust yourself)
 Trust yourself (trust yourself)
 I said trust yourself...
 Sisters... Brothers...
 Children... Mother...
 People... Oh, people...
 Well, well now I say I say
 Sisters, brothers, children
 Oh Lord, oh mothers
 If you do what you're told
 You better watch who does the tellin'
 Before you believe you gotta see what they're sellin
 Don't give up your soul to no one else
 If you wanna be free you gotta trust yourself
 Trust yourself (trust yourself)
 Trust yourself (trust yourself)
 I said trust yourself (trust yourself)
 Trust yourself...
 Trust yourself (trust yourself)
 I said now trust yourself (trust yourself)
 Nobody gonna trust your, trust yorself
 Trust yourself...
 Trust yourself (trust yourself)
 Trust yourself (you gotta trust yourself)
 Trust yourself (trust yourself)
 Trust yourself...
 Oh, trust yourself
