Somebody's Gotta Do It

Lyrics: Julian Michael Caldwell/Sylvester Uzoma Onyejiaka/Kelyn Crapp Music: Julian Michael Caldwell/Kelyn Crapp/Sylvester Uzoma Onyejiaka Who you know fresher than, wait, stupid question Who gonna admit when the problem in they reflection Who is gonna get that better than saying something when you wasn’t involved is saying nothing at all, Who’s gon realize that hip-hop don’t need saving And that getting a couple likes don’t make you famous And that getting a little fame don’t mean you should rap Just sell makeup or shirts and leave it at that Please who is just gonna support what they love They broadcast what they should really ignore cuz they hate It’s all backwards but who is gon flip it And who is gon pay you what you worth and add interest If you don’t charge em, who’s gon even bother To say that Black men often make the best fathers, Yo who gonna tell debaters online Two things can both be true at the same time Somebody’s gotta do it (Somebody’s gotta do it) Somebody’s gotta do it (Somebody’s gotta do it) Somebody’s gotta get up on they feet Try to wait and see Look around like I guess it might be me Some say the world need a hero naw, it need common sense And you don’t gotta go to college with a lot to spend Who’s gonna tell em if we pull up to the gate on the plane we ain’t going nowhere you ain’t gotta stand Adults we all kids with impatience And sometimes kids even deserve explanation Who’s telling parents straight up or in a rhyme If you choose to beat your kids just don’t all the time Or don’t do it all Who’s gonna say everybody’s activism is different just get involved, Who’s gonna stop putting death on TV on a loop When the victim look something like me Somebody had to ask new questions so I made a whole song Cuz Jadakiss did all the ones I ask who he asked why If you don’t hear this and step up then I’m that guy Somebody’s gotta do it (Somebody’s gotta do it) Somebody’s gotta do it (Somebody’s gotta do it) Somebody’s gotta get up on they feet Try to wait and see Look around like I guess it might be me
