Lyrics

Don't tell me how it was I'll tell you how it is I'm speaking bout the times The one I'm living in Don't tell me how it was, I'll tell you how it is The man come knocking on my door Rose my rent too high So I would have to move out, so the man could gentrify If I had equal pay I could stay, but the system only works one way Don't tell me how it was I'll tell you how it is I'm speaking bout the times The one I'm living in Don't tell me how it was, I'll tell you how it is Old ratty books and leaky roof, thats how to describe all of our schools Shiny and new is the other kind, cross town they livin' another life If I had it my way it would change, but the system only works one way Don't tell me how it was I'll tell you how it is I'm speaking bout the times The one I'm living in Don't tell me how it was, I'll tell you how it is Unfairly excused sitting in this jail I wanna go home but can't pay bail If you're poor and you're black, they put you on the prison track So many of us fall through this crack If I had it my way it would change, but the system only works one way Don't tell me how it was I'll tell you how it is I'm speaking bout the times The one I'm living in Don't tell me how it was, I'll tell you how it is Don't tell me how it was I'll tell you how it is I'm speaking bout the times The one I'm living in Don't tell me how it was, I'll tell you how it is
