Stop The Violence Lyrics

Stop The Violence lyrics

(The Rock)

Today’s topic self construction

We all came together just
to tell y’all something

Guns in school ain’t right to me

You gotta
be the peace you’d like to see

See yourself free

I use my mind
beyond time to talk to the future me

See yourself wealthy

It’s time
to settle all these beefs

Yo Nelly help me



(Nelly)

It’s
like we livin’ in that you can’t stop me era

Like man when I see you ima
pop you era

Like we ain’t learned nothing from the 2pac era

From
the B I Terror

Take a look in the mirror

Gets your hands out your
pockets like man

It’s time we get up get out and get sumin’ get a
plan

You know a plan not a scam

I’m talkin’ sumin’ beneficial in
helpin’ the next man



(Styles P.)

From self destruction to
self construction

Really depends on self production

Our family’s
dysfunctional

But we cud function

To make our next generation
option something

Better than we had which was close to nothing

Come
from the ages of minimum wages

Brothers is outrages millennium slave
tips

Put it in the book

But we ain’t go through pages



(Redman)

What I like to see is MCs get along

If you gotta buck a
shot

Do it in a song

Get your lyrics up

It all sound raw

When I drop I rock till the cows come home



(The Game)

I
never thought I’d tell anybody to put a gun down

Till last week I saw a
12 year old kid gunned down

This ain’t what life’s about

All this
shoot ‘em up bang bang you never think twice about

That’s somebody’s son
you shot somebody’s daughter you slaughtered

I shed tears for our dearly
departed

And the shooters get X’d like Malcolm

One dead in the
grave, one behind bars is the out come



(Chorus Ne-Yo)

Self
construction

I said what we doin’ to each other what we need

Self
construction

Cryin’ mothers, dying brothers what we need

Self
construction

Never ever ran from the Klu Klux Klan

Shouldn’t have
to run from a black man

We need self construction

Hey self
construction hey



(Method Man)

Look at the pot callin’ the
kettle black

I’m in the ghetto black

And I ain’t tryin’ to be where
delao and shawn bell is at

I show these people where hell is at

It’s
right around the corner from no hope where the dope be sellin’ at



(Busta Rhymes)

Ayo I’d like to see us open the lines of
communication

Prioritizing and dealing with self preservation

Being
constructive is something I’m completing endorsing

Cuz the mind state of
the youth kinda needed some reinforcing



(Talib Kweli)

Hip-hop’s responsibility goes far beyond rappin’

We can talk about the
happens

Sing songs without action

Activist activism must enforce
your lyricism

This is how you gunna add vilolence and lying politicians




(David Banner)

Cut throat Americana

Powder keg
California

Big business wu shaolin

Hip hop is out to warn ya

Black or brown

Brown and black

North and south beef

Self
construction now 

These rockers all about peace



(Chorus
Ne-Yo)

Self construction

I said what we doin’ to each other what we
need

Self construction

Cryin’ mothers, dying brothers what we
need

Self construction

Never ever ran from the Klu Klux Klan

Shouldn’t have to run from a black man

We need self construction

Hey self construction hey



I ain’t cosigning none of that

I’m not just rhyming

We losin’ babies to the streets

So we could
not be silent

Together we could stop the violence

We listen to
music 

Even bullets be whistlin’ when the shots is firin’



Chicks ain’t even exempt now

Even Got us goin’ in and out of the pen
now

Years in the game

Think its goin’ on ten now

Must be mad
think I’m putting the pen down



I wasn’t here for the first
move

I’m thirteen let me put in my 2 cents

A nation divided equals
silence

So let’s join together and stop the violence
