Chaos will plague our city streets
and the Magnificent Mile will be cut up into blocks
no more boutiques, no more shops
If we don't learn before the cops
respecting elders and their simple ways
will turn to senseless shootings and unmarked graves
quiet evenings in the family room
will sing like lightening playing the devils tune
classrooms teaching the A,B,C's
to counting bullet holes 1,2,3
One stop shopping at the corner quick-mart
will be shook down by Korean Cops
Korporate American and the games they play
will have to make money the old fashioned way
Amusement park rides on the bumper cars
will be hit-and-run driving just for fun
Reform schools where catholic children play
will be barred with chicken wire to house their stay
Addicts will become more addicted
Their mind will become more conflicted
If we don't Learn........
FreakNic, Parties and the Summer Months
our children turning tricks and tokin' on blunts
The subways will be filled with sewer rats
that eat up their victims after they attack
Jehovah Witnesses' will be on the corner of Vincinnes & 112th
trying to remember the difference between Worship and Wealth
Drive by shooting will become the White Mans Burden
then the hammer will fall like the Iron Curtain
Our childrens dreams will die in the dark
their light of hope will become a spark
Our Revolution is dying for a chance to burn
But It'll never exist If We Don't Learn......
