Lay It Down 02:25
Lay It Down Am I Crazy I don't think so But the way you talk to me baby I don't know And am I lost one things' for certain This ain't the place I call home Cuz if we linger here we'll lose it Ain't our fault babe but we're choosing it right now So can we lay it down Lay me down in a field of lilies Holy white growing in the sun Lay me out in the grass so green Yeah and give me love Cuz if we keep running we'll die here Ain't no glory in these fast defended lines So can we change our minds Baby time and money and moving This urban city life is killing me I ain't got time to stop and breathe Much less to hold my own, much less to hold my own Are we sitting here losing faith Are we stuck in this crazy race Cuz if we walk I wanna stay on solid ground And if we linger here we'll lose it Ain't our fault babe but we're choosing I said if we linger we'll lose it No right or wrong babe But we're choosing it right now So can we lay it down Ah come on lay it down Well can we lay it down

Percents 02:39
Percents 1 in 10 teenagers attempting suicide 2 in 10 little boys can’t find no place to hide 3 in 10 little girls in the same catastrophe How many of us turn our heads cuz it’s too sad to see 4 in 10 Americans are physically obese 6 in 10 teen woman say no to their men who do not listen 5 in 10 people in the world in poverty Said again that’s 1 in 2, could be me, could be you So what percentage of your heart is on the line And what percentage of your vision sees the time passing by How many people do these numbers represent All of us are stuck here hey that’s 100 percent 7 in 10 children getting bullied and pushed around 8 in 10 living in a substandard house 9 in 10 people hold less than 1 percent Of all the world’s money I don’t think that’s what God meant So what percentage of your heart is on the line And what percentage of your vision sees the time passing by How many people do these numbers represent All of us together hey that’s 100 percent Black men are 6 more times likely To live their lives behind bars And we are coming oh so close to Our atmosphere denying us a vision of the stars So what percentage of your soul is on the line And what percentage of your eyes see the time passing by What could we do if we just made some time to spend All of us could change things if it’s 100 percent Yeah all of us in the same boat that’s one hundred percent
