Intro - Phis
Recognize and realize
a child's eyes need to dignify
to consciously solidify
Visions of grandeur
countered by the ghetto answer
Gun handlers, damagers
and your private dancers
What you see on T.V.
Is usually fabricated
Only elaborated by the man who made it
Animosity and hatred
I wanna run to heaven but it's gated
Then they wonder why my feelings faded
Verse 1 - Tomas
Checking out videos on my T.V.
Around 11:15
Checking out the so called hoes
Who are there to entice me
- Got me wondering
What if I
Was still at the tender age of thirteen?
- Would I really understand?
Would I know what all of this means?
Hook - Tomas
What they know about life?
What they know about love?
What they know about these things?
What they think about sex?
What they think about drugs?
We've come too far
Please don't stop the love
Verse 2 - Tomas
Tell me somewhere there is a parent
Sitting down with their child
Teaching them that
- Life ain't what they see on T.V.
Every sistah ain't a bitch
And every brotha ain't a ho
And I hope that you know
Bridge - Phis
Now think about it
How many have died for a dumb cause?
How many have suffered at least one loss
What happened to fighting without gun play
Y'all cats not models
Why you still on the runaway?
I'm stating an issue
In hopes, by the time that it hit you
It's not over a song entitled I miss you
I personally contemplated suicide
But instead I concentrated on who's inside
Phissique Strong baby
In the game I'll last long baby
When the rest of y'all gone baby
Situations need meditation
No need for a demonstration
It's clockwork like cycle menstruation
Now regulation before elevating
You need levatation
Remain stationed
What I'm stating
Is get your figures
Whether baby boy or baby sitter
Stand tall in your timberlands and slippers
