Letra Reap What You Sow de Lennie Moreno original

3 in the morning
And I think about the times
When I should've called my mom
And I should've called my dad
You're always on my mind
I should've seen the signs
And now you leave me sad
I'm mad
I tried to save my bro
Now he's gone
You left me all alone
I wish we could've sit down
And bring down
Just everything we built down
The love, the wrongs
The rights
So brother we might
Just maybe
Look at the lights
And think about it
I can't even do
A thing about it
You got to come back
And mama miss you
I bet that daddy loves you
And I was really hoping
That we could've talk
You taught me how to walk
I know we got it hard
Clothes, food
And money lacking
I'm blacking (out)
That's why I keep on asking
Is this the way you feel still
Escaping all the real deal
Sharing us a veal meal
I maybe need a chill pill
But my tears are still spilled

Chorus (2x):
People need to know
You reap what you sow
And I'm feeling what you show
You're reaching for your goal
Sticking to your plan
And then you'll become a man
Plants ain't growing in the sand
And you better understand that

Reap what you sow
Live your life in the know
What you do defines you

6 in the morning
And my brain start stalling
And got 6 tears running
From my 6 years missing
At sixteen I told my dad
I'm sick of lacking plus
My peers start slacking
But got 6 more stacking
Appears so drastic look
At the statistic
You'll go ballistic
You won't believe
It's realistic
I really feel it's time
To blow up I show up
Your reasons make me throw up
And seasons make me grow up
But got to look
To the positive of things
And fuck the shit you worship
Really I deposited your bling
What's happening you king?
Material replaced
The human side
From side to side an acolyte
An homicide don't recognize
In Africa there is people
Starving yelling
The ghetto ghetto
Crack cooking, selling
I really want
To see some changes
Do it
You blew it
And now I walk alone
I try to find the path
The future brings
So let the future sing

Break down

(Chorus 4x)
