Artist/Band: Talib Kweli
Lyrics for Song: Nature
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Talib Kweli



Yeah, expect the unexpected



It's kinda hard to keep faith in the things that you do

When everybody turns their back on you

It's kinda hard to keep faith in the things that you do

When everybody turns their back on you



It's kinda hard to keep faith in the things that you do

When everybody turns their back on you

It's kinda hard to keep faith in the things that you do

When everybody turns their back



Yeah, I know a city that's surrounded by a beautiful beach

The economy boosted by the drugs they move in the street

More clearer than the crystal sky, blue as the beast

But the people ain't got shoes for they feet or food to eat



So they hurtin' but what's for certain you can get you some heat

And over beef, you laid to rest like you was gettin' some sleep

Where the little kids get ammunition, word, you can't get no nutrition

Or any type of suitable livin' condition



Listen, they shoot you over that paper, it's just survivalist human nature

To put you out of your misery like euthanasia, yeah

Don't let them fool you, we ain't different than the youth in Asia

Africa and Europe, it's a small world, we truly neighbors



If they the Third World, then who the first to get to Heaven?

I know it's hard but who does God choose to go through it, worst

Usually it's the prophets, ask a cat what really matters, nowadays

Usually, it's his pockets



We gotta get back to what really matters, word

We gotta search our soul to find out what we're after

The more I find my voice the more they try to make it harder

Mom and dad don't forget to warn your sons and daughters

About the nature of the world today, the nature of the world today

The nature of the world today, the nature of the world today



Word, don't nobody talk no more, they all text message

Drivin' and typin', not payin' attention, missin' they next exit

Dependin' on navigation, they never know where they're goin'

They're stayin' stuck in one spot, they're not growin'



I'm so over cryin', waitin' and hopin', playin' the lame game

The game changed me into 'A Different World' like Dwayne and Wayne

I'm gettin' high just to maintain, yeah

Take my music like a drug and drop the needle in the same vein



I get a rush like I'm tweekin' off blow

Except it ain't via the nose, it's from deep in my soul

The street slang, I be speakin' in code

Kick in the do's, freakin' the flow 'til the speakers explode



We in control, the people know I speak the truth

The power of my roots is thicker than sour sop

And they so strong they bustin' out the flower pot

Family tradition is to tell 'em you love 'em

While your family livin' from granny in the kitchen

The little man in prison



We gotta get back to what really matters

We gotta search our soul to find out what we're after

The more I find my voice the more they try to make it harder

Mom and dad don't forget, to warn your sons and daughters

About the nature of the world today, the nature of the world today

The nature of the world today, the nature of the world today



It's kinda hard to keep faith in the things that you do

When everybody turns their back on you

It's kinda hard to keep faith in the things that you do

When everybody turns their back on you



It's kinda hard to keep faith in the things that you do

When everybody turns their back on you

It's kinda hard to keep faith in the things that you do

When everybody turns their back on you



I'm just tryin' to get back to what really matters

I'm tryin' to search my soul to find out what I'm after

But the more I find my voice the more they try to make it harder

So mom and dad don't forget to warn your sons and daughters

About the nature of the world today, the nature of the world today

The nature of the world today, the nature of the world today



Yeah, it's all natural, baby

It's how we put it, yeah

Yeah, Brooklyn to Tennessee

You goin' up with me

Yeah, yeah, break it down
