What Happened?
Fathers are leaving and Mothers are not showing up
Guns teaching N**gas, so these black kids aren’t growing up
Home life is hell, and in school they don’t know enough
Street Knowledge is well, “yo, Tell that dopehead that this ain’t enoughâ€
This is becoming a never ending cycle
Forget about the money, let’s teach these kids survival
Teach them about hard work and determination
Let them know their time is now
Even the tallest trees start with germination
Use knowledge as their building blocks, I am a word mason
Before you throw them a ball, pass them an education
Tell congress that poor schools are in poor places
They’ll teach you how to jump but you’ll never reach your placement
