We're Not Alone

Lyrics

Where there's life there is water
 We depend on mama nature
 There's a message for tomorrow
 Everythin' connects to you
 Some say soon it will be over
 You can see it in the weather
 Out of tune with mama nature
 What you do comes back to you
 We're not alone
 We're not alone
 We're not alone
 We're not alone
 Confucius, Confucius, Sigmund Freud and Farad Muhammad
 Is it evolution or God? Searchin' for the truth is a threat
 Seems the closer we get to the truth
 State troopers or feds come out to silence you
 My house in Malibu, probably tapped
 'Cause livin' next door to Demi Moore, plus I'm black
 Plus I want vengeance for the poor who's attacked daily
 Patriot Act never scared me
 Jake in the Taurus, sticky in the jar-s
 Niggas I'm with got warrants, America's brown
 And twenty years from now every town will be brown
 And Latin or African, look at Manhattan
 I'ma tell you what I seen with my three eyes
 Word to me, not a hoax, back in 9-9
 A spacecraft in the skyline
 In L.A. in daytime, ask Horse if I'm lyin'
 Every mother, every father
 Raise your sons and your daughters
 With respect and with honor
 From the seed comes a fruit
 It's an unbroken circle
 All of life is universal
 And we're all in the struggle
 If I know, one thing is true
 We're not alone
 We're not alone
 We're not alone
 We're not alone
 Evidence remains in debate
 Documents of our own Air Force base
 Additional terrestrial information
 Other planets with life population
 My observation, scientists study pictures of a flyin' disc
 Right on earth, anthropologists are findin' shit
 Visitors, probably live with us, they can mimic us
 It's sort of what we seein' in the cinemas
 Take a look in the mirror
 And see the bigger picture
 It's good to be alive
 It's good to be alive
 Nobody is an island
 We are part of an environment
 Only way we gon' survive
 Is if we harmonize
 We're not alone
 We're not alone
 We're not alone
 We're not alone
 Reginald Lewis, the black billionaire
 Before Oprah or Bob Johnson, how'd he disappear?
 Conspiracy theories, UFO's in the air
 I've seen it with my own two eyes and I swear
 Like Warren Buffet, real money, I'm just tryin' to touch it
 The diamond encrusted shit, live illustrious
 'Cause we was deprived of it, suffered
 Now, we pop to prove any thing's possible
 My pimp strut was invented when they whipped us
 Now, we diddy bop just to show you that our strength's up
 Just when niggas 'bout to see they cut
 Global warmin' about to burn us up
 Niggas never really seen paper in this world
 American black's, the teenager of this world
 Give us twenty more years to grow up
 Already geniuses, what I mean is this
 I used to worship a certain Queens police murderer
 'Til I read the words of Ivan van Sertima
 He inserted somethin' in me that made me feel worthier
 Now, I spit revolution, I'm his hood interpreter
 Take a look in the mirror
 And see the bigger picture
 It's good to be alive
 It's good to be alive
 Nobody is an island
 We are part of an environment
 Only way we are gon' survive
 Is if we harmonize
 We're not alone
 We're not alone
 We're not alone
 We're not alone
 Aiyo, I'm American born
 Love America, love my people
 Love all mankind, all nationalities
 You know, I think it's just been recent
 Where ev'rybody started to feel like
 It was an elite group that runs everythin'
 And everybody else was sheep, ignorant
 Makin' all ethnicities colors and creeds niggas
 Blind to what's really goin' on
 So, I say take off the wall from your eyes
 Out with the old America, in with the new
 End all racism, all injustice, all oppression
 To poor people, any people anywhere in this planet
 Let's come together, a new day is risin'
