Real People

We used to fight and fuss, we used to yell and cuss
 We used to cock and bust now look at us
 We done turned to ashes and dust to dust
 I shoulda turned the cause and returned the love
 I shoulda passed the bud to all the bloods
 And leave them slugs with them pigs in the mud
 Who the fuck turned 2Pac into a thug?
 All I used to get was a pound and a hug
 I remember when we used to hate them drugs
 Now we can't rap without being fucked up
 High in the club but you sound like a drunk
 Hard in the street but a jailhouse punk
 Me and that nigga, yeah we used to bring the funk
 Now we got love and respect like a monk
 Understand that we got a lot in common
 Homie you in the same boat that I'm in
 I'm calling all the real people, real people
 Let em know that the change gon come
 Tell me where the real people? Real people
 It's time to wake up and stand as one
 Calling all the real people, real people
 You still got our faith nah we ain't none
 Tell me where the real people out there
 The real people out there
 It's a good day when it's me and O'Shea
 It's like the times we cheered for O.J
 I say Mike, Cube say Kobe
 But ain't no more beef, I put that on chief
 Blaow, a little homie dead in the streets
 It's like the day they compared us to meat
 Glad Farrakan prepared us to meet
 Now me and bro bringing meals to the meek
 Think about my homie locked up like a Rasta
 Dude in my ear asking me about the Oscars
 I build with the gods to show improvement
 Hard to complain, real people going through it
 I know the movement like I was Huey Newton
 Can't explain why youngin's are shooting
 The revolution will not be on the ground
 The revolution is who I am, God damn
 I don't care what your color is
 All my real people, real people love this, love this
 I don't care what your color is
 All my real people, real people love this, love this
 I don't care what your color is
 All my real people, real people love this, love this
 I don't care what your color is
 All my real people, real people love this, love this
 Be the change
