Lyrics
(Verse 1)
i have always imagined of being alone/
in the dark all by myself seeing a clone/
then questioning God why he made me different/
im facing them struggles everyday and listen/
my parents told me that im one of a kind/
but if im one of a kind why am i falling behind/
and me being different was crystal clear/
my only dream was to create a ripple here/
theres a pistol near and he can hit you clear/
we dont have a choice but to live with fear/
have you ever felt that someones out to get you/
and you dont know when hes about to hit you/
theres a line between the wrong and the right/
government hides racism alone in the sight/
so open up your heart and listen inside/
why cant we love and put our traditions aside/
(Chorus)
its the blacks, the asians and the hispanics
getting hurt everyday like i cant even stand it
and what makes them so much better than me
were both struggling trying to live the american dream
many soldiers had to give up their pride
and many told ya to give up and die
so it seems like they wont ever listen to me
why cant we all gather and start living a dream
(Verse 2)
why dont they give us freedom of speech/
when they say were one under god meaning that we/
are perfectly equal and that we arent so different/
but when we get involved its none of our business/
we dont feel accepted but we gotta do/
what we gotta do but making a living seems impossible/
most of immigrants get off the boat with faith/
all you do is ignore them and close the gate/
tell me one good reason why, you hate us while/
all the parents are out wanting to save their child/
why da hell do you think were known to be smart/
i have a goal to reach and its shown in my heart/
african americans dream was to give art/
and thanks to them, we now have something called hip hop/
why wasnt kkk stopped at all/
it just seems like our dream was to drop and fall/
(Chorus)
its the blacks, the asians and the hispanics
getting hurt everyday like i cant even stand it
and what makes them so much better than me
were both struggling trying to live the american dream
many soldiers had to give up their pride
and many told ya to give up and die
so it seems like they wont ever listen to me
why cant we all gather and start living a dream
(Verse 3)
your not born with hatred and my heart is tearing/
the truth is truth is hates taught by parents/
these questions arent answered and never thought of/
we figured out the secret in no time we caught up/
then earned each and every quater we all bought a/
house and made a damn living but you all fought us/
look what your doing why cant you just support us/
its sort of like your doing this cause of orders/
one wanted peace the others yelled at their kids/
why do you think even now the ghetto exists/
the children dont get it their asking the meaning/
all we know is that everything happens for reasons/
why wont they listen its also their business/
and even the school teachers will show racism/
so if anyone breathes the same air as i breathe/
we will one day live the day of my dreams/
(Chorus 2x)
its the blacks, the asians and the hispanics
getting hurt everyday like i cant even stand it
and what makes them so much better than me
were both struggling trying to live the american dream
many soldiers had to give up their pride
and many told ya to give up and die
so it seems like they wont ever listen to me
why cant we all gather and start living a dream
