Greener Lyrics

(And the people go-Hey ahh)
Mix the sunshine add some rain
A pinch of loving sow a seed and…
The grass can be greener on the other side
( And the people go-Hey ahh)

(Speech)
Friends of mine worry about they welfare
They not really doing well they just doing fare
Without medical healthcare pockets bare
Hiding dey car far from repo man
Checkin caller id before they answer they phone
Bill collectors call round the clock at they home
But they still wanna gone & replace they light bulbs
Blacks want to be green we wanna recycle
Many of us poor so we take the mass transport
Walk streets bump beats that's what the headphones are for
No SUV's steady spilling mad smoke
All the baller images is just us in the video
Most people that I know is on foot
Living green naturally it's all good
I -Recycle cans and paper goods in my hood son
No trash mouth cuz trash is better in a dump
The grass can be greener on the other side
(and the people go-Hey ahh)

(1 Love)
I stopped to get gas at the citgo
I saw a brother passing by throwing trash out his window
I walked over and I picked it up
It was a styrophome cup filled with cigarette butts ! w hat the…?
He was thug and a litter bug
I'm just trying to be a man that recycling
See we support waste management
And their efforts to prevent waste from piling up on each continent
We separate the paper and elastic
Then do the same with cardboard and plastic
We take glass and bulbs filled with halogen
And put aluminum and tin in a separate bin
My next of kin yeah we heard about it
But we've been letting al goers friends worry about it
See where were from smog is hovering
So I'm dedicating this verse to helping mother earth to recover

( Eshe)
Organically we grow our trees
Flowers blooming attracting buzzing boes
Teach our kids how to plant seeds
And nuture the harvest until the season comes
From soil we feed from soil we feed
Mix the sunshine add some rain
A pinch of loving sow a seed and…
The grass can be greener on the other side
( and the people go-Hey ahh)
(Speech)
Life is filled with Challenges
My boys Kidneys failed man he's on Dialysis
3 hours to filter his blood everyday
We trying to learn more about the herbal remedies
Get back to the way God meant for it to be
Hanging with my peeps on the stoop being free
Shoulda listened to the Indians and not the pilgrims
The world warming up there's much less chillin'
And yet where I'm from there 's still some convincing
Older folks don't trust the whites intentions
Some think natural living is hocus pocus
But with record high heat waves they taking notice

Mix the sunshine add some rain
A pinch of loving sow a seed and ..
The grass can be greener on the other side
( and the people go-Hey ahh)
