2gether Prince
Lyrics
Yeah
2gether
Your boy got popped in a driveby yesterday
He`ll be lucky if he makes it through the night is what the doctors say
U can take revenge or U can be the one 2 break the chain
U look up in the sky 4 an answer and it starts 2 rain
CHORUS:
What are we (What are we) if we`re not 2gether? (If we`re not 2gether)
How do we (How do we) make a life that`s better? (Yeah)
Cuz when we (Cuz when we) be killin` one another (Take each other out)
How do we (Huh, how) call each other brother? (Mmm, check it)
U tell me
What`s the chance of a brother gettin` off the block?
What`s the chance, not a damn if all he wanna do is sell chicken wings and the
rock
(Chicken wing and the rock)
U can blame the system, U can be the one 2 even the score, huh
Yeah, huh, U look up in the sky 4 an answer and it starts 2 pour
Drop it, huh
What are we (What are we) if we`re not 2gether? (If we`re not 2gether)
How do we (How do we) make a life that`s better? (Yeah)
Cuz when we (Cuz when we) be killin` one another (Take each other out)
How do we (Huh, how) call each other brother?
U tell me (Tell`em)
Why is slangin` them thangs, coppin` a stroll, flashin` a sign
Key topics on a young black mind?
Cuz it`s the picture that we give`em and they illustrate
Black on black genocide has started 2 escalate
Every brother ain`t a brother cuz o` color, this is true
But I can still say 2 my brother "Much love boo"
Please Lord, give me the strength and make it quick
Cuz my people won`t take another nightstick, huh
What are we (What are we) if we`re not 2gether? (If we`re not 2gether)
How do we (And how do we) make a life that`s better? (Yeah)
Cuz when we (Cuz when we) be killin` one another (Take each other out)
How do we (How do we) (I don`t know) call each other brother?
U tell me
What are we if we`re not 2gether? (The New Power Generation)
How do we make a life that`s better? (Straight up 4 `93)
Cuz when we (Come on) (Killin` one another) be killin` one another
(Come on, come on)
(How do we) How do we call each other brother?
U tell me (Yeah)
Yo, it`s simple
From the old 2 the young
2 uplift we must give the gift
Gift of knowledge, that is
Teach our young
That all in life ain`t fun
And 2 make a life that`s better
My people must stick 2gether
The choice is yours
CHORUS
What are we (What are we) if we`re not 2gether? (If we`re not 2gether)
How do we (How do we) make a life that`s better? (2gether)
Cuz when we (Cuz when we) be killin` one another (Be killin` one another)
How do we (How do we) call each other brother?
U tell me
