Crazy World

Treated like a slave sent to work the fields
When cats come up from other countries they get half a meal
In a nation where democracy won't let me shine
So I'm forced to chop defcits up my mind
Street life ain't nothing nice, reality neither
One won't let me go and the other won't let me leave her
America the beautiful, America the great
You wonder why so many lives are being filled with so much hate
Where the blind lead the blind and the crooked don't fly straight
Unemployment minimum wage increase the crime rate
Who made this crazy world we live in where justice is blind
I could of swore outrage is stealing my mind
From day one been acting like she's the one that we must pray to
I'm sorry Miss America but I really don't hate you, don't hate you
I got this message on my mind and I spell it to you
About this crazy world that you're putting us through

Competition, segregation
Don't mean a damn thing to me
Jurisdiction, lies and illusion
Just won't set us free from your
Crazy world, crazy people
Crazy fools make the rules

Crazy world, crazy people
Crazy fools make the rules
Ah, I say them crazy
(Solo)

I woke up this morning terrorism on the news
Everyone running scared and being confused
It's a crazy world we are living in
Children on the corner ain't got nothing to eat
Dead bodies being found on the street
It's a crazy world when brothers doing life in the pen
And they won't see the streets again

Competition, segregation
Don't mean a damn thing to me
Jurisdiction, lies and illusion
Just won't set us free from your

Crazy world, crazy people
Crazy fools make the rules
Crazy world, crazy people
Crazy fools make the rules
Say them crazy
Crazy them crazy
Crazy yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, say them crazy
Crazy them crazy
Crazy world, yeah, yeah
