Original lyrics
ENWords is going wrong and people can't see why
Times are changin' fast now is the time to try
To put away our differences see eye to eye
The promoted land we ain't but baby its worth a try
Cocaine dealin' stealin' lived a life of crime
Died the age before he could legally drive
Money is the reson why she's out all night
Of all good things to ask for may God shed his light
Cause livin' is a word affair And lately we ain't livin' right
No matter where your hangin' hood ot the highland
Its a word to word affair
Babies makin' babies just like Sly Stone said
but that ain't what she's thinkin' when she's in his bed
Brother goes to school so he can stay ahead
if one good kid can make it there's hope in the end
Cause livin' is a word affair and lately we ain't livin' right
No matter where your hangin hood or the highland
its a world to world affair
