Yo - whats up with the world today?
Bombs blowin up, where kids used to play
Why? Can't there be peace on the streets
instead of vi-o-lence in the Middle East
I'll - never know no matter how I try
cuz I'll look to the sky and ask
Why? Do people fight in the middle of the night
Wit little kids screamin for their moms in fright
The tears - floatin down the cheeks of kids goin to war
without even knowin what they fightin for
- It's sicknin to think about for looong
Cuz in the end all war is wrong
A - kids last breath results in death
Did he just deserve to live life any less?
I - don't know how we live the rich life
when somebody could have a starvin wife

*Hook*
I'm makin this track to make a big statement
But I know that somebody will still hate it
Just cuz they want to bring me down to the ground
Just to see my smile turn into a frown
Their goal is to make me turn away
- Probably cuz they know what I'm goin to say
But I won't succumb, I will rise
No tears will fall from my big brown eyes

*X Chromosome*
Lack of food or drink but we can wear coats of mink
- Doesn't it make you just want to think?
What's wrong wit all a humanity?
Just look at the world today its sad-to-see
Suicide used as a means of attack
- Corporate millionaires stabbin people in the back
Money equals power - which is equivalent to greed
How can green paper make people act so mean?
What - we don't eat is an African feast
or maybe a dinner for two in the Middle East
But - we act carelessly and act like we don't care
And we wonder why we're hated in world affairs
We just don't get it, the points been missed
Is it really the survival of the fittest?
- Are we really tryin to be better than the rest
because of Mother Nature's evolutionary test?

In my mind human nature should be kind
instead of violence and havin people that we know dyin
- We should keep Mother Earth free of all hate
- Or it'll come to a point where its already too late
Racism breeds unneccessary hatred
At the current rate, humans ain't gonna make it
Animals kill each other - just for food
But humans do it whenever we're - in the mood
The words from my throat symbolize lost hope
for humanity thats on a downward slope
How bad were people in the past to the present?
God needs to flood US to teach us a lesson
We pillage villages and rape the girls
It makes me wanna ask how ****ed is this world?
I mean, people were bad way back then
but, are todays society any better than them?

I'm assuming that you are looking for comments and constructive criticism (or maybe you're just showcasing *shrugs*), so anyway...

I don't listen to much rap, but everything seems to work well. I especially like the intro. The only negative thing that really stood out to me was the phrase "big brown eyes" at the end of the chorus, it seems a bit silly to me; I'd recommend rewording it.

The syncopation of the piano in the background really doesnt work at all. Its too distracting.

I only read it, and I only read part of it, but I like your lyrics.

It's not the side effects of cocaine, so then I'm thinking that it must be love
