A New Beginning - Dead Prez

Times is getting rough, huh?

That’s nothing new to us

There’s nothing to discuss.

Just make adjustments, time is up

This crazy world we live in, they taking, ain’t no giving

Consuming, not producing.

We got a problem, Houston

Its worse than genocide, they get inside your mind

Tricked 'ya.

You thought the finish line was 1999, didn’t 'ya?

Try to save the trees but you can’t go green without that black and red

If we gon' get free we got to change that lightbulb in our head

The end of the world don’t mean too much to us

It’s a new beginning

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust to us

It’s a new beginning

Stock market crashing daily, they say that times are scary

They dollar’s losing value, but the hood knew that already

The price of gas been rising, at times we can’t afford it

The oil supply is leaking, facing a global shortage

According to news reporters, every year its getting warmer

These violent weather patterns, some say it’s just nature’s karma

They planting they seeds of fearing, genetic engineering

Interfering with the crops and now the bees are disappearing

Don’t know what is upon us, just know one thing for certain

Change is so necessary cause they system is not working

Maybe it would take destruction to make a better world

And if that’s what it takes then I hope Babylon just keep on burning

We -- we got a problem, Houston x3
