* provides background vocals



[Hook: Frukwan]

Yo, what's the meaning of life?

Yo, somebody please tell me..

What's the meaning of life?

Yo, somebody gots to help me

Yo, what's the meaning of life?

Yo, somebody please tell me..



[Frukwan]

I look inside the mirror and look in myself, I'm hopin' for help

Everyday I'm hopin' for a brand new strife

The shores of North America, I'm bound to survive

Though I'm not the same, yo I carry a gift

Tricked and sold his cargo on the bowels of ships

But yo, I got my pride, tighten up my stand

Lookin' at the stars, the original man..

Never thought that it would ever come to this

Migrate really wasn't a time when life was great

I wanna go home to the Bering Straights

A place where I know where my kid's is safe

Thoughts of runnin' foul like a rampant disease

Yet, my skin tone really couldn't bring the ease

Gettin' weaker by the day, months and years

Thousands of years we reign, but now I shed a tear



[Chorus: Frukwan]

Yo, what's the meaning of life?

Yo, somebody please tell me..

What's the meaning of life?

Yo, somebody gots to help me

Yo, what's the meaning of life?

Yo, but do you know?



[Frukwan]

Inhale and exhale the breath of mist

Each and every day a new way to exist

Don't wanna use a gun, shoot drugs and dope

Don't wanna wear a cross, 'cuz it brings no hope

In the beginnin' as we know, started back in the land

Well defined, their complexion was just like mines

Come to find we was lead and upon direct

Now we cheat, steal and kill and lost all respect

How much pain would you take before you break the chain?

Most of us don't even care, we was planted with fear

We say the babies are the future, but what's the fuss?

Broken homes, growin' up, they act worse than us

Since we all been double-crossed, sins we wear with pride

Believe the lies, yet, still ain't open our eyes

Lookin' forward to the day that I fast and pray

These is questions that I always say



[Chorus]



[Frukwan]

Goin' through a struggle, yeah it's hard at first

Bein' put down, shunned, ragged, tagged and dragged

The inner strength leave the soul through a body of one

Can't be mad, yo, I'm glad, cuz I know where I'm from

Priceless, I'm like a treasure, I can't be touched

Made an image of myself from the grains of dust

Mold and shape the woman with the curves of a snake

Travel lightyears away and then return to base

Eliminatin' evil's more like a daily chore

Teachin' my ways, that's how I spend most of my days

Balance attack, never been scared to be black

Manifestin' only actual facts

Savin' the kids, spreadin' love, yo, that's how to life

Justice is my reward for the acts that I did

Think about all the things in time, seek and you'll find

Yo, I wanna go home, I got's to know



[Hook 2X]
