The Koll3ctive - Time for Us

All I see is a world of empty faces
How come no one’s smilin' back at me?
We’re all lookin' for someone to follow
Is it time for us to take the lead?
She seeks to fulfill her needs
With fantasies
Lettin' others use her
She’s lost 'cause it’s all the same
She can’t numb the pain
Thinkin’ what’s the use here
Screams for help but no one hears a sound
Invisible, passes right through the crowd
Out in the streets for one more fix
Poppin' pills what a deadly mix
Takes a quick, glimpse in the mirror
And the answer's never been clearer
Says I’m so over this shit
I can’t handle I’m tired and sick
Calls it quits picks up the Ruger
Her precious life meant nothin' to her
All I see is a world of empty faces
How come no one’s smilin' back at me?
We’re all lookin' for someone to follow
Is it time for us to take the lead?
Everyday another tragedy
Ain’t it sad to see?
I’m so tired of the apathy
Ain’t we a family?
Yuh
Police put our brothers up in a coffin
And still you won’t do a damn thing to stop it
Walkin' by people livin' in boxes
But still you won’t spare some change out your pocket
Stressin' bout strengthenin' up your wallet
Forgettin' that the true power is knowledge
Point is our focus is where they want it
They rather me change the topic
Ignore all the bodies droppin'
How do we let one life mean more than another?
We ain’t got shit if we ain’t got each other
All I see is a world of empty faces
How come no one’s smilin' back at me? (Smilin' back at me)
We’re all lookin' for someone to follow
Is it time for us to take the lead?
'Cause all I see is a world of empty faces (Yeah)
How come no one’s smilin' back at me?
We’re all looking for someone to follow
Is it time for us to take the lead?
Yeah
