Wynter Gordon – Unify lyrics

[Chorus: ]
These are the struggles we face
They will not go away
Until we make a change
So far, we haven't done a thing
But sit back and complain
Let people tell us who we are
[Repeat 2X]
If we want to make it right
Then we've got to unify
Want to make a better life
Let me hear my people cry

I keep a watchful eye
Over my baby brother
Responsibility
Every woman is a mother

When there's no father in the picture
It's likely he'll go astray, he'll go astray yeah
He'll chase his dream on the big silver screen
Or the court
Chances he'll make the team
A thousand to one
And after that
There's no where to turn, nowhere to turn

[Chorus: ]

Poverty is where we grow
Videos are all we know
Get up, now drive away
Turn a trick, we let 'em hoes

The only way to make a dolla
Selling weed upon a corner
Killing future son's and daughter's lives
Violence and drugs and gangs
Models and magazines
Having sex and pregnant teens
Is what we do, it ain't no thing
It's hard to spend our money
We should be making money
We spend it on Chinese food and the latest trends

[Chorus: ]

To succeed needs a healthy (?)
No man left behind
In spirit, he's your brother
You're not alone
If we stick together
Son of stormy weather
Baby keep your head up

To succeed needs a healthy (?)
No man left behind
In spirit, he's your brother
You're not alone
If we stick together
Son of stormy weather
Baby keep your head up
Let me hear my people cry

Let me hear my people cry
No, no, no, no
Unify
[Chorus: ]

Want to hear you cry
Want to hear you cry
Want to hear you say I'm gonna make a change
Want to see you get up and do things
Want to to see you make a change
Want to see you help out your brother
Ohhh, ohhh, ohhh...
