BEAT: "Beach Chair" - Jay-Z

If life is like a beach chair/
Then to be fair/
When I reach there/
I'm going to feel the tingle runnin' through each hair/
To be there, to be free/
To be me/
To be Nick or NYC/
This it seems/
Of course is the question/
That is pressin' on my mind/
What kind of impression that I wanna have left in/
The people's minds, after I left them/
The lessons, become mine, and the tests then/
Get passed and then a pass on detention/
Gets you a passage but when/
People say your name then I call it an honorable mention/
Always been stubborn, my moms had to have the C-Section/
A blessin' it will be when we don't have to see sections/
Of society strugglin' with poverty and misdirection/
Keep makin' mistakes but somehow never learn the lessons/
Government stopped caring about the people, so let's start an insurrection/
Nobody has answers, everybody has questions/
It's time to take an eraser to racism and make corrections/
Not every minority deserves to go into State Corrections/
Let's correct ourselves and do something about corruption/
Let's stop aiming at the bottom of the food chain and get the ones above them/
The ones who booze and drug them/
Thinkng that making them lose makes them win, that shit is troublin'/
And sometimes I can't help but doublin'/
Over with laughter at these overwrought actors/
Carefully, they evolve like chameleon personality crafters/
Shape shifting again like snakes splitting their skin/
Nothing seems so heavenly as living in sin/
Nothing seems as easy as quittin' and givin' in/
But nothing can stop us if we decide to fight and LIVE again/
