Too many years now I held my tongue and read
Forming opinions while i listened to what was said
I've lived my dreams, my own reality
A tacit birthright breeding hate and jealousy
But there are too many people angry
Watched over with popcorn and candy
Too many people burned by conditions beyond their control
Too many lives have been killed by
Money and happenstance drive-bys
They fall by the wayside, never stirring a soul
Be safe? Is not the way I want to be
I want to be open and let myself go free
So heed the call 'cause what's right is in your mind
You gotta be open have trust in what you'll find
Too many years now I've turned to news at 10
A rape, a killing, and the Knicks have lost again
My mind's conditioned to tune out at the sight
The grand delusion that we all sleep well at night
There is a problem that won't ever go away
I guess survival is the promise of today
But I'm a dreamer and my dream has just begun
We are a family if the world is truly one
Be safe? Is not the way I want to be
I want to be open and let myself go free
So heed the call 'cause what's right is in your mind
You gotta be open have trust in what you'll find
This is the last time you will live
If you are broken, just forgive
It takes a moment to break this chain
And realize we are all the same
Be safe? Is not the way I want to be
I want to be open and let myself go free
So heed the call 'cause what's right is in your mind
You gotta be open have trust in what you'll find
They might say the choice was lost in history
There is no hope for vengeful hearts who are suffering
But these are chains that tortured every ancestry
You gotta be open and listen to be free
