The Roots - How I Got Over

"Out in the streets, where I grew up, first thing they teach you is not to give a fuck. That type of thinking can't get you no where. Someone has to care."


How are we supposed to progress when our mentality and teachings are slowly decreasing? If everybody has that "I don't give a fuck" mentality how do we expect for our children and generations to become intelligent, or better yet, create? There are people dying in the streets, homeless with no place to go and all they get is laughed on with out any type of help. Children silently crying, mom's working 3 jobs, dad's never home. Who are these children looking up to? Where are the role models? Change needs to become effective as of now. We need to help instead of pointing fingers. We got mami's on the block selling a bit of what they got to make a living, but ask them how many interviews they get rejected on because of their condition. Credit scores affect the jobs we apply for. Man, this world and society is seriously nothing to die for. If you ain't up top with the bread winners, there's no way of advancing. Of course there is! Stop the negativity and keep an open mind. Change is everywhere. We have to make it.
