Takin It To The Streets

You don't know me but I'm your brother

I was raised here in this living hell

You don't know my kind in your world, no

Fairly soon the time will tell, yes, it will

Oh, you, keep telling me the things you're gonna do for me

I ain't blind, I ain't blind and I don't like what I think I see

And I'm...

Takin' it to the streets (Takin' it to the streets)

Takin' it to the streets (Takin' it there, yeah)

Takin' it to the streets (Takin' it to the streets)

Takin' it to the streets (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Won't you take this message to my sisters and my brothers

You will find them most everywhere

Wherever people are living together

You see they're all tired of poverty's despair

Oh, you, oh you, you, you, keep telling me the things you're gonna do for me

I'm not blind and I really don't like what I think I see, so I'm…[Chorus: Choir,

Takin' it to the streets

Yeah, yeah,

keep telling me the things you're gonna do for me
