[Intro: Chorus]
Woooh oooh oooh
Aww yeah yeah, aww yeah yeah
Aww aww yeah
I said I'm looking for a change
[Verse 1: Sun Of El]
Live by the gun, die by the same put one in ur brain
The fucking system got a nigga insane
And as long as blood is blue in my veins
I'ma maintain and keep giving all my hood niggas a story of pain
The stories the same, innocent man shot no weapon on him
Forty-one shots, they came without a warning
Another man dies, another mom cries family mourning
The cops work for the son of the morning
Instead of blasting pigs we steady blasting each other.
We should be banging on the pigs having em running for cover
I pray to the most high, that when a nigga leave the crib he don't die
Study the holy tablets from Malachi
Peace to those that perished it those that we cherish the most
To all my live niggas busting they toast
Make sure that you busting your shit off at the right niggas
The system ain't right but live your life niggas
[Chorus: Sun Of El & Chorus]
I often wonder when things gonna change
They say the sun gon shine tomorrow but then it rains
The cops shot another man, another brother slain
It's hard out here, we trying to maintain
Tell when things gonna change
Tell when things gonna change
Tell when things gonna change
Oooh, oooh, oooh
[Verse 2: Sun Of El]
Okay this is what it sounds like when the doves cry
The cops keep letting them slugs fly me, no know why
Got to maintain, man the struggle is real
Fall on my face say a prayer while clutching my steel
Cause these pigs ain't playing man, they aiming to kill
But I'm from cop killer Queens, I got a thuggish appeal
Shit is rough out here on these roads that I travel on
Sodom, Gomorrah, the modern day Babylon
That's why I keep a gun in my chariot
Put the work in then tubman like Harriet
I'm talking the pigs nigga
Shit is fucked up in the city that I live nigga
I pray that I'll never have to bust a pig
Lay on them bastards outside where they live
They say two wrongs don't make a right
Another nigga murdered, who's gon ride tonight?
[Chorus: Sun Of El & Chorus]
I often wonder when things gonna change
They say the sun gon shine tomorrow but then it rains
The cops shot another man, another brother slain
It's hard out here, we trying to maintain
Tell when things gonna change
Tell when things gonna change
Tell when things gonna change
Oooh, oooh, oooh
[Outro: Chorus]
Tell when things gonna change
Tell when things gonna change
Tell when things gonna change
Tell when things gonna change
Oooh, oooh, oooh
