Tupac's Tomorrow (Feat. Luther Williams)

from Serenade EP by James Wood

/

about

For Tupac, Gil-Scott Heron & Charles Mingus

lyrics

Today is filled with anger
Fuelled with hidden hate
Scared of being outcast
Afraid of common fate

Today is built on tragedies
Which no one wants to face
Nightmares to humanities
And morally disgraced

Tonight is filled with rage
Violence in the air
Children bred with ruthlessness
Because no one at home cares

Tonight I lay my head down
But the pressure never stops
Knawing at my sanity
Content when I am dropped

But tomorrow I see change
A chance to build anew
Built on spirit intent of heart
And ideals based on truth

And tomorrow I wake with second wind
And strong because of pride
To know I fought with all my heart
To keep my dream alive
