What Can I Do

*sung*
What can i do
What can i do,
To make it better,
Verse 1:
I thank the lord for every mornin he allows me to rise,
And though the sun is shinin' there's a cloud in the sky
Lettin me know, at any moment there could be rain,
And as beautiful as life is, there still could be pain,
Down the block, i hear the sirens just screamin away,
And then the inevitable happens, The end of the day,
As sad it sounds, but that's the price we all gotta pay,
And the whole world knows, If god give it, He'll take it away,
Live & I learn, sit and watch my cigarette burn, Down to the ash,
It reminds me of the Now & the Past,
I'l save you a prayer, cuz eventually il stand in the pack,
Of the souls and dark roads to lead to the way
Chorus:
*sung*
Do you hear them crying,
Waiting for someone to come and dry these tears,
And take away their fears

Verse 2:
A child is born, bloody naked, clingin to life,
Unaware of his surroundings, or if breathin is right,
In the arms of his mother, as he looks in her eyes,
He takes his first breath and screams *Thanks alot*
At the same time, another mother murders her kids,
And the unbearable thought of this here just brings me to tears,
Its hard enough we gotta raise our kids to live in this world,
So full of hate with no faith, And we killin em first,
And sometimes, i sit on down and wonder myself,
But then again, i aint Jesus, and i couldnt help,
All i can do, is hope that i never live with the fact,
That i hurt one of my seeds, cuz dealin with that,
Would be the hardest thing, I'd ever have to do in my time,
I'd have to take my own life too, and I couldn't climb,
That stairway, that you hear me singin about in my rhyme,
And a parent hurtin his kid aint the size and time,
I know theres truth in that statement, We Just livin and dyin,
But i believe if you live it right, you live in the sky,
Lookin down on the good and the bad, the world as a whole,
And Hopefully you did what you did, before you had to go,
Chorus:
*sung*
Do you hear them crying,
Waiting for someone to come and dry these tears,
And take away their fears
Can I make it better,
Can i ease the pain that they are going through,
What Can I Do?
*with adlibs mixed in*
Verse 3:
I'l say goodbye to you cruel world, I'l say peace to the red sky,
See the beast when the dead die, and leave with my head high,
If the streets overhead cry, when the heat from the lead fly,
With the greif when i said bye, 'fore the sheets on my bed dry,
The turn of the table, The tale of the tape,
The destruction of beauty & flesh of the not so great,
The Long list of the John Doe's and (????) nigga spirit,
As he hails to souls lost, and hopes to God hears it,
The ressurection of empty hards, crowdin the room,
The muffled sounds of the outside, echo the tune,
But im cold,
(Do you hear me.... Crying)
Cold
Chorus:
*sung*
Do you hear them crying,
Waiting for someone to come and dry these tears,
And take away their fears
Can I make it better,
Can i ease the pain that they are going through,
What Can I Do?
*with adlibs mixed in*
*repeat till end*
