Hey, Kronos.
The rally yesterday was a huge
success. We had hundreds of
people in the streets
marching
for you, for Rodney King . . .
When I was out there,
I met this one guy
and he’s a social worker
works at this agency
called EMQ
(freeze)

The wind’s knocked outta me
and I’ve got too many books
to think about
They keep me up at night
I wish I could just
Stop studying
I wanna just change the world (freeze)

EMQ
is really tough, Kronos.
I’m beginning to think
that I’m not cut out for
this line of work.
Every night, I’m exhausted, bro.
I get home and
the wind’s knocked outta me
and I’ve got too many clients
to think about
They keep me up at night
I wish I could just
Stop and think
(freeze)

towards the audience)
