[01:54.04]Add some bravado, get wealthy like Wells Fargo
[01:57.00]It's truth, that I am you, and I am proof
[01:59.71]Surviving through, we do what we gotta do
[02:02.39]Yo, we could break the cycle, let nobody lie to you
[02:05.21]Then maybe put our sons and our daughters in private school
[02:08.02]Because there's a mission we gotta finish before we leave

[02:43.77]Last night I set the future at the feet of my son
[02:46.50]But they thinking that my generation got to die young
[02:49.49]If we all come together then they can't divide one
[02:52.25]Don't worry 'bout it; just be about it
[02:54.88]Got a message from God: Heaven too crowded
[02:57.69]But I say: Hey young world, you never looked better
[03:00.65]And I heard change started with man in the mirror
[03:03.44]This generation, I'mma represent
[03:06.74]A generation led by a black president
[03:09.54]Now hows that for change? Who knew that can change?
[03:12.34]I don't even look at the flag the same, heck
[03:15.08]So when you finish reading revelations
