Tlc - Be Somebody слова песни
Paula cole & t-boz(appears on paula coles album "amen")I want to be somebodyI want to make a differenceLittle boy caught in a drive-byWitnessed the killer who made his daddy die,And cause he identified and signed the dotted line,He could feel it in his stomach, he signed away his lifeLittle boy who once was the leader of his classThe little source of joy, always neatly dressedNow would hang his head and be left crying at his desk,Was found with his mother, lying in her lapWith two bullets in his chestBridge:And, oh my god, what is this madness? I will not let it kill my gladnessAnd, oh my god, what is this madness? My joy inside will send this messageChorus:I want to be somebodyI want to make a difference,For we all are children of the motherI want to be somebodyI want to make a difference,For we all are children of the fatherOutspoken man, leading sisters and brothers,Picked himself up from hustling, drugs and guttersDoing time on the inside, he found a higher powerNow, back with a mission to help us help each otherRespected from bourgeoisie to homeless in the streetFrom universities, africa, the middle eastAnd through the threats of death he spoke truth and set men freeBut the power of the truth made enemies of the weakHe was killed by his own peopleBridgeChorusIgnite this fire inside, this light that is the truthShake off the systems chains, no longer be their foolIn the face of brutality, show the other cheekTrigger-happy policing will never kill our dignityBridgeChorus
