Low Down Dirty Shame

Ain't it a shame? When hate, jealousy and envy dictate your motives

Life lessons should have taught you that it's all poison

Ever since the slave ship's we've sold one another out

For financial stability literally to easy to dirt and not live biblically

Aint' it a shame? When you're to proud to accept your own faults

You walk in the dead zone trying to shake off the chalk

Backstabbin, finger pointin then you smile in thier face

You steady grabbin, heavy crabbin a disgrace to the human race

Ain't it a shame? When you're throwing stones and your house is glass

Spreading your wickedness like a rash

In God's eyes we all were created equal

But yet the love of the money, the root of the evils

I love my peoples do or die, but I wonder why we're afraid to let each other fly

Ain't it a shame? As the world turns the cycle continues to repeat

Having those whom has learn no need for rivals the issues should cease

Truthfully, In life we're only promised one thing

And that's to live and die and that's all plain

But be not discouraged just attempt to win the game

And that's hard enough so why live in such a negative way

Which leaves me questioning AIN'T IT A SHAME?
