[Daniel Merriweather]
I saw a dried up river and a rich man turning on a garden hose
I see a young man picking up a gun I guess that's where the money goes
Am I just as good as a bad man sleeping while the rest are dying
Or am I just as bad as a good man saying there's no use in trying


Oooo tell me do you still believe
Oooo everything that you read
Will we learn to get together and see who we really are
Ain't nothing gonna change
Ain't nothing gonna change
If nobody's gonna wake up and start asking whose in charge
Ain't nothing gonna change
Ain't nothing gonna change
Ain't nothing gonna change


[Wale]
Ain't s*** changing but life is all babies
Get higher than the background singers singing
Na na na na na na na na na

[Daniel Merriweather]
Some people do it all for money some do it all for their loves
Some do it all for the glory cause nothing else their thinking of
I saw a man in a four door truck complaining that the price was high
Like a well fed man with a smoothie in his hand saying who ate all the apple pie

Oooo tell me do you still believe
Oooo everything that you read
Will we learn to get together and see who we really are
Ain't nothing gonna change
Ain't nothing gonna change
If nobody's gonna wake up and start asking whose in charge
Ain't nothing gonna change
Ain't nothing gonna change
Ain't nothing gonna change

[Wale]
Finally ready to listen I'm never gonna listen
Most follow intuition while they wishing it would work
And my vision isn't perfect so I don't never look for it
Don't wish for some change like a church worker
Hallelujah preacher I am not influenced
If I don't donate to your movement am I not improving
And while the poor kill the poor for a portion
That piece of American society pie I get high
The munchies I got so bear witness
I got the girl looking at you cuz my rims kissing
And I ain't ready to wait when there's dollars on the brain why would you expect change

[Daniel Merriweather]
Will we learn to get together and see who we really are
Ain't nothing gonna change
Ain't nothing gonna change
If nobody's gonna wake up and start asking whose in charge
Ain't nothing gonna change
Ain't nothing gonna change
Ain't nothing gonna change

[Wale]
Ain't s*** changing but life is all babies
Get higher than the background singers singing
Na na na na na na na na na
