Beautiful Day Lyrics
[Hook 1x]
Beautiful day
Wake up and smell the garbage
Seeing the happy palm trees but that's across our bridge
Cause on the other side there's hope and promise
But on this side with dead cats and trees, that's were I live
[Verse 1]
Categorized as the ghetto or the hood
But really it's just the place were dreams are held and could
Have been reality, but in actuality
There's mainly only brutality, fighting over nationality
And that's the real mentality
And strangers here don't get much hospitality
But let's look at the brighter things
Old News, Obama's in office and he has common sense
But all that talk about hope and change is all past tense
Yeah it's cool Obama broke the white barrier
But all this hoping ain't making things any merrier
It seems like struggling's a disease and we're all carriers
We need someone to put us on their back and carry us
[Hook 2x]
Beautiful day
Wake up and smell the garbage
Seeing the happy palm trees but that's across our bridge
Cause on the other side there's hope and promise
But on this side with dead cats and trees, that's were I live
[Verse 2]
It ain't nothing new
Just waiting for someone to beef and start to shoot
Can't get out of this state of mind, stuck up in the loop
One of the brighter future's here is becoming a troop
Fight for your corrupt country, the right thing to do
Give em' your life when they barely give back to you
Having to take a bullet just to afford some food
And we still ask why humanity's so crude, let's get a clue
After all that this country has been through, we should be progressing
And not looking back how we could've grew
We need to spread our wings and fly like we are eagles

Need to stop blasting on each other, cause' we are equals
Don't believe me but in the end we're still all people
You have a choice to be peaceful or just spread more evil
C'mon, we should all be driving in Mercedes Benz
We need to stop the ignorance and put it to and end
[Hook 2x]
Beautiful day
Wake up and smell the garbage
Seeing the happy palm trees but that's across our bridge
Cause on the other side there's hope and promise
But on this side with dead cats and trees, that's were I live
