Empty Pockets

All these politics, it's a deception falling on America's weak They say we're keeping ourselves down We sold out on half a*s trailer park dreams So now we're living with rednecks, racists black white hatred I'm trying so hard to love my nation underfed, over bred I just can't get ahead, it's not about the races or the revelations People shooting up the blocks because of empty pockets Fighting with the cops because of empty pockets Selling what we got because of empty pockets Blaming every other face for our empty pockets And I think we need a shift in direction Better wake your a*s out of sleep out of sleep and stop judging others Who struggle just like you and me 'Cause now we're living with hard times, s*x crimes Friends are hard to find, I'm trying not to lose my mind In the low-cla*s, high-cla*s in the middle sinking fast I know you wanna blame it on my education I'm hanging on the block because of empty pockets Fighting with the coops because of empty pockets Selling what I got because of empty pockets Blaming every other face to our empty pockets Lost without a trace because of empty pockets Living in a different place because of empty pockets Empty pockets Empty pockets Empty pockets
