It's funny right? They say things done change

No more messages in the music, record sales down, gas prices up

No more love in your love, no more love for your love

Change is long overdue, Mary, something's gotta give, Big Boi

You can trot around the planet or watch it on the news

Sombody's getting shot, the weather man's looking confused

He's reporting to a nation full of zombies strung out on starbucks

And stitched up and bitching Abercrombie

Uh, don't get it mixed up me too

I have insomnia at times but don't be walkin' 'round here blind

Nigga feelin' all around, trying to find a righteous path

It's appealin' when I rhyme

So everytime I hit the masses, you know the common folk

Blue collared day to day workers

That squeeze a dollar so they baby can swallow

A little not a lota just enough to fill that bottle

But it's a million dollars a gallon for some gas to get to work

Tomorrow that's if you gotta get it, you can't swim in carpool

You Rob Peter to pay Paul to make due

Make you wanna write a note and take a pistol to that bank too

And pass it to the teller but you know better

They trying to tell us to stay strong

But every day we losing jobs

From College Park out to Beverly Hills

Somethin's gonna have to give

Across the world they live in fear

But it's the same thing over here

If you can hear me on Capitol Hill

Somethin's gonna have to give

The great debators debate about who's the greatest MC

Subject matter don't matter because the verse is empty

No food for thought nothing for the brain to digest

So I guess it'd be about who can bullshit the best

But I give them light on like the traffic I direct

Inspiring their life like they was actors on my set

As if I was a pilot, take'em higher then a jet

I'd be a liar if I wasn't sick and tired of this mess

They trying to tell us to stay strong

Nut every day we losing jobs

(Everyday, everyday)

From College Park out to Beverly Hills

Somethin's gonna have to give

(Give it up y'all)

Across the world they live in fear

But it's the same thing over here

(Over here, yeah)

If you can hear me on Capitol Hill

Somethin's gonna have to give

(Oh, yeah)

Single mother in a struggle and it's no fun

But you don't really understand until you are one

A child is sick and is losing he's endurance

She want to fix him but she 'aint got no insurance

Now we don't even want to talk about the man's life

Out on parol with the promise that he'll do right

But a felon has no chance for a new start

So it's back to doing hand in hand on his own block

And blacks and whites we're all the same and I know you feel my pain

And the only hope I have to help me deal with the drama

Is that maybe in November I'll be cheering for Obama

They trying to tell us to stay strong

(Yeah)

But everyday we losing jobs

(Every day)

From College Park out to Beverly Hills

(Ooh)

Somethin's gonna have to give

(Give it up, give it up)

Across the world they live in fear

But it's the same thing over here

(Over here)

If you can hear me on Capitol Hill

(Listen to me now)

Something's gonna have to give

(Give it up y'all)

The world is too big

Free your mind or be stuck like porcupine left behind

That's the bottom line gotta find the grind

'Cause the time won't be coming back around, get it now nigga

The world is too big

Step on the stars while you're reaching for the sun

But never burn a bridge, each one, teach one

If you lend a helping hand, you may never be one

The world is too big

And I heard him say that every man, woman

And child was gonna be okay

I heard him say that they would bring

Our soldiers home in one piece today

The world is too big but it's not that way

They've been selling us a dream telling us

We on the same team

Now we all gotta deal with the lies

They trying to tell us to stay strong

(Yeah)

But everyday we losing jobs

(Every day)

From College Park out to Beverly Hills

Somethin's gonna have to give

(Have to give)

Across the world they live in fear

(Oh yeah)

But it's the same thing over here

(Over here)

If you can hear me on Capitol Hill

(I know you hear me)

Somethin's gonna have to give

(Yeah)
