It's been said so well before so I'll quote a few
Artist who have written songs... because they've lived through it too!
This is an original piece but inspired by many
Our thoughts similar... yet, mine won't earn a penny
I'm okay with it though that's not why any of us do it
It's meant to inspire the people ...To help them get through it
What were the Beatles trying to teach in the song "let it be"
The strength & power of forgiveness with the hopes we all see
And of course theres "Imagine"... written by John Lennon to say
That changing our view ...could forge a new way
When Eminem rapped "sing for the moment"
What was going through his head
That no ones destined to be poor ....to believe in other options instead
"Keep your head up" is the message Tupac tried to spread
To live life to the fullest ... only stopping when your dead
And the reason biggie wrote "juicy" was to help people see
That hard work & a dream .... can set anybody free
Salt-n-Pepa's "None of your buisness" made woman stand tall ...
At a time when men had the ability to make them feel small
A similar goal was the reason for Lauryn Hills "Doo *** that thing"
Girl power & self respect is the message they bring
In the song "Can't hold us down" ...Lil Kim & Christina regulate
The lesson is equality.... And they hope to educate
Kanye West inspired us all... When he spit it "Through the wire"
He grew strenghth from an accident that would have turned most into a crier
And in "If I ruled the world"... Nas asks we "imagine that"
Decribing how the world can be... In a different place than it's at
If you put a beat to my messages you'd see my goals are the same
The only difference between us Is the money and fame
