It’s all around us. Everyone thinkin’ bout nothin’ but self. Drivin’ the streets like crazy fools and cain’t see nobody else. What you gonna do when the game is through? Your gonna have to choose! If you snooze you lose! When sleepin’ at night, it’s a scary sight. Cain’t feel alright when your so uptight.
You don’t have to be so unmagnaneemus! Just get off the beat you groove to. Put on some brand new shoes. You don’t have to be so unmagnaneemus! Get on back to the school of life. The school of life.
If you wanna ask me just what I see and how my mind became so free I’ll tell you this. My daddy used his fist. He whipped me so hard you know I’ll never forget! You can be right and still lose a fight. But I’m still strong. I keep holding on. I thank God for my mutha who believed in me when there was no utha.
You don’t have to be so unmagnaneemus! Get off the beat you groove to. Put on some brand new shoes. You don’t have to be so unmagnaneemus! Get on back to the school of life. The school of life.
