the original chu - when lyrics
verse 1:
i’m getting too old for this sh-t
when did mumbling turn into hits
when did every rapper talk about guns
and jones-ing and overdosing became fun
when did molly become the party
i swear it’s tripping me out i got a daughter
is the way it’s going to play out?
i’m tired, scared of tomorrow, i need a way out
when did the era end of world peace
i fear sleep man terror’s been released
when did rappers become sheep
i’m the shepherd, now y’all following my lead
when did snitching become an instinct
when did real hip-hop become extinct
when is it cool to want to be the same
up in the club with the thugs you wanna make it rain
shaking that -ss for quick cash
it won’t last. come and go fast like whiplash
it’s not my life, it’s your life so live it
if you need religion then get a witness
oh lord, why does everybody turn their back on you
forget to thank you
why is beef so accepted in the streets
why do we believe never to turn the other cheek
when did relationships be replaced
we’re tech-ing out, no getting out or face to face
when did we embrace the iphone and android
a disgrace, selfies with duck faces
guess i don’t understand the youth
shoot. i’m just speaking the truth
when did we become robots with no thoughts
if i was jamaican, i’d be saying what the blood clot
chorus:
this is a day that i don’t understand
cause back in the day you lend a hand to your brother man
they’re crabs in the bucket, trying to bring you down
i try to rise above it, try to ignore the sound
verse 2:
when. when did i used to think then
that with my pad and pen that i could do anything
when. when do i want to pretend
that me and my friends are on stage singing again
when. when do i want to chase a dream
when do i believe, i can be anything
when did c.r.e.a.m trump a dream
when did greed succeed, when did money rule everything
when did media become remedial
when did cell phone screens become a tv show
when did privacy lose liberty
makaveli. do i have to decease so you can’t see me?
when. when did minorities believe that we were free
when did you deceit and mislead
when. when can i be a better friend, father, husband
when i can learn to trust again
chorus:
this is a day that i don’t understand
cause back in the day you lend a hand to your brother man
they’re crabs in the bucket, trying to bring you down
i try to rise above it, try to ignore the sound
