Mr. Morgan is on
the streets
Homeless and
stressed
Because he can't
read
Sister has a
child
Alone with no man
for support
Just a boy
Who is the father
of the unborn
No direction for
the future
Blaming his
parents, preacher and teacher
For his bad
decision
Is this away of
life
Or just a
personal revolution
Can't find a job
Sitting inside,
without education
Can't keep the
faith
When its' GOD you
hate
The cop has you
locked
Mad because you
know your wrong
But you can't
change that wrong now
Is this away of
life
Or just a
personal revolution
A child killed to
day and yesterday
Taken away from
it's mother
So much greed in
society
We can't believe
Now what does all
this mean
Is this away of
life
Or just a
personal revolution
Find your self a
new direction
Make revolution
of education
Don't take what
they give you
Take all you
need............and more
Don't make
revolution with blood
Just because of
the ignorant word
Your brother said
Is this away of
life
Or just a
personal revolution
Don't let your
daily life
Equal to a 40
ounce or a dollar fifty
Just because
ignorance is thirsty
Is this away of
life
Or just a
personal revolution
The Development
speaks out
With life music
They have the
right to do that
That is a
personal revolution
Alice speaks out
Because her
sister
Wants to harm
her-self
Because of
tradition
Living by the
word
Living for the
word
That is a
personal revolution
What is our true
direction
Our true way of
life
Covered by the lust of inhumanity
Break the chains of political enslavement
Break the chains of social enslavement
Break the chains of education
To limitless
knowledge
Break the chains of racism
So we can be
brothers and sisters again
Let us wash our
hands
In the waters of
revolution
Make personal
revolution
The direction can
only be chosen by you
Are you going to
work for your better day
Or just play like
its' your last day
What is your true
way of life
Were is your
personal revolution
