[Pharell]
Oh lord[Bow Wow]
Young and confused
With nothin' to lose
But somethin' to prove
My hunger my views
I use them as tools
To refuse for the sake of rebellin'
Breaking the rules and yellin'
Telling them to come and walk in my shoe
Come and try it
Be defiant, we pump the heart of a lion
See if you like it
You livin' yo life culturally bias
Cause the ghettos got a bad rep
And we got a bad rap
So we get a half step in the door, get the last laugh, hah,
No future no past we live for the right now
Want us to pipe down,
But this is what life sound like when thugs cry
And I seen love die
And I've seen the hater born
And pawn as they take on form
As they take on
The world is placed on our shoulder
But socially they never know what's up
They approach us with they pre-conceived notions
At least that's what the homies told me[Chorus; x2]
The celebration, the movement
Man we young and confused
But to ambitious to lose it
You see we loving life
Since we was just critters
They said that we'd be go getters
This is the movementLike the war thing
I don't know what y'all seen
But my generation is getting caught in the cross beams
No preparation, medication, and vaccines
No reparation for the children who ask things
But get no answers,
They just say pull your pants up
They don't understand us
But still reprimand us
Demand us to live like this and that and that and this
And it has us pissed and after this
I'll probably be banded
But I gotta take a stand
Cause you see what happened when Eminem ignored Stan
He just lost it be cautious
See we all targets
My thoughts are sporadic
I feel so asthmatic
Out of breath
Sick of talkin'
So we taking action
Against a democracy
Full of hypocrisy
I know it's more than me
And my hip hop eyes that see
That's what the homie said to me[Chorus]In the world that has so much goin' on
Could leave you paranoid
Like now there's popping noise
Please don't just think it's project boys
Whether your urban life or your suburban knights
It doesn't matter
What matters is if your swerving right
Don't get it twisted
All that happens in suburban life?
Cause dead is dead
Whether in your room or a club at night
But the lords been shining on ya
He said I'm there to calm ya
He said "I'll be back"
The words like Sara conners
She said we sleepin' on her
Wake up and leanin' on her
We terminated for playin'
Terminator by your honor
We don't want to die
We just want to fly[Bow Wow]
Ever felt like you just want to get away man.
It's the movement.
I don't think y'all heard me, it's the movement man.[Chorus]
