Hey everyone!!! thank you for checking out my soundclick page and I hope you like my music :) I haven't updated this in over a year, so I figured that a change was due. Here's what's going on these days... NEW music will be up by January at the very latest! The 2nd album, "Sinful" is going to be a free download and only the best of my new work :) I've been really picky this time around with my lyrics and everything. It'll have a few badass collabs on it including one with my buddy Steve playing guitar. Myspace- www.myspace.com/femminamusic

Story behind the song
This song's closest to my heart because these things happen everyday and we can't do anything to help anyone else out without their consent and will to change. All we can do is infuence in a good way. Honestly, I think rap has failed to do that. On the contrary, it has developed into an excuse for entertainment. Nobody wants to blame any of the worlds' destruction on a simple form of entertainment. The people who do get contradicted with the words "it's just music" and "they know better than to take it seriously." Well, what about the thousands/millions of children who have corrupt households to live in and turn on the radio as a crutch? Instead of hearing inspiring words, they hear that it's cool to kill and that you don't amount to anything if you're not a certain way. A female who doesn't have the perfect body or is still a virgin or a guys who doesn't have a lot of money won't achieve anything in life.
Lyrics
Verse 1: One, life to live, some insight to give Cause to the world, our vision’s the beginning to kids They listen to our music, but most of it is violence So they take what they hear and fill our homes with silence As they run around with a new crowd Getting high before school without you finding out Playing hooky all the time, they’re no longer college-bound They leave the house at night without calling now You’re saying, “My kid would never do what they did” It’s not happening, you don’t wanna face it Yell at them, then ground them, bring them back to basics There’s too many young mother, drug, and gun cases Babies in teen mothers fixing for their birth today It’s sad that my only mission on this earth is to stay I should be focused on a way to do something great But I can’t juggle that and ducking strays Chours: If I lived my life looking at the sky Would I be more apt to deny The things going on? Human beings holding on? We’re living in hell, we don’t have to die If we do not change our mind sets And work with what our time lets Soon all morality will be blown away Verse 2: If I had a penny for everytime that I heard That a murder took place, I could move to the suburbs What kind of world are we living in? When some of us get cut for our dividends Because greed emerges when the giving ends Turning to see who could serve us or to get us in These are just a couple of thoughts that are crossing my mind Because you’ll never see me get caught flossing a nine And that’s how I can say this without being a hypocrite Fight for our lives and start to give a shit Cause if you don’t, chances are, you’re gonna get hit Not by me, but by the wrong guy that you mess with
