Why is it so hard to just be?
Live in a world where I can be me
Not be afraid of ridicule
Live in a world where people aren't cruel
People say peace, instead of f*** you
I can be me and you can be you
That's the world that should be here
Not this dump, full of hate and fear
why can't we love, instead of fight?
The s*** that we do, it just ain't right
Gangstas pop caps and klansmen lynch n****s
People don't act, they just sit and quiver
People are ignorant, shadowed from reality
Sittin' at home watchin insanity
Sayin' they care but not doin' a thing
Watching people on American Idol sing
Why is it so hard to just be?
Live in a world where I can be me
