The E.N.D. - Emanon

What’s up world

It’s Aloe Blacc

Been tryna let y’all know it’s only one world we live in

But all I could do

Is just let you know through these lessons

My momma told me in so many words

Don’t ever let nobody keep me from getting

All the things I deserve

But she' probably take it back if she knew

When it catch up to me one day

What' this karma gonn' do

'Cause I' been running from my past like a convict

Trapped in my own guilty hell of a

Grabbing the sky

Like a blanket let it cover my sin

Little boy trying to wash the blackness off of my skin

'Cause nobody ever called me a king

Had to learn it myself

Had to evaluate my personal wealth

But see society was telling me that evil was black

And the media was supporting the fact

'til I learn all the facts

And I read them books

And then I' seen how the inside of a white lie looks

And then I dreamed of a Martin Luther king and a Malcom

Then I scream 'cause I wasn’t really expecting the outcome

See this gleam of all better tomorrow

Shot down in a minute

All of my hopes and my dreams gone wit' it

Then my momma' voice came back and that’s what did

You need to get what you deserve son get it

Momma I’m gonn' get it

(Over sample)

Yeah

I need your help let’s heal this world

There’s so many things we need to change

C’mon if you' coming with me

God bless the children

Whose dreams reach the top of the ceiling

While niggas is killing outside they' tellin me build us

And God bless the ladies

Who' make the babies

Tryinna make love but can’t make enough nah

And God bless the brothers

Who spend like 20 years here then they hover above us

And God bless the rest who rest in peace

Death called 'em out they had to challenge the beef

No peace, God bless to the east and the west

We already laid to rest, two of the best

And I could play that white dude with a «S»

Instead I play that black dude by any means with a «X»

And y’all youngsters don’t really gotta be so bold

There’s no hope for a sheep in wolf clothes

Take my advice niggas save your souls

I’m twenty something years old and I’m breaking them all

And I don’t do it for show

I do it to show you

I love you that much and I don’t even know you

I love you that much and I don’t even know you

I love you that much 'til the END

(Over sample)

Yeah

I’m saying the world keep turning around

And while we' here we gotta change as much as we can

All of that hate shit, dead it

'Cause we' so close to the END

Exile, forget all that bullshit man you' my muhfukin heart

Yeah, Let’s stick together we' gon' make it to the END hommie

Everybody else, you can come along with us

Or you can forget us
