They don't really care about us

They don’t really care about us


By Undakova


Mass destruction


Then invasions


Bombs erupting


I don’t knowwww who to blame or


What needs changing


All I am thinking is


They don’t really care about us



In gulfed in


Exploitation


Corruption


I don’t knowww who to blame or


What needs changing


All I am saying is


They don’t really care about us


17th century 21st century


really doesn't matter if you are not writing the history


In the end of it all when they mention we


Will they mention you? Will they mention me?



Will they mention us? Will the picture be. . .


A shot of you next to the words “victory”?


I don’t think so, So you should listen see


Because the only benefit that you’ll get to see


Is the 9 digit social security


The captain of the ship may still let the prisoners eat


And just because you travel doesn’t mean that you really free


Executives from Enron will still get to cheat


The shareholders and workers from new companies


And new corporation factories they calling green


Alternating new natural sources of energy


But there is still a third world and war in the middle east


Chorus:



Maybe I am over reacting


The medias bias


I am being too liberal


Or maybe I am lying


But how do you feel


When your immediately trying


To keep up with the joneses?


And what are you buying?


The pressure from the bosses


Stockholders and clients


To increase the profits


And ya bottom lines


The factories closing


And no longer supplying


A towns gone jobless


And left high and dry and


Still whole country


Witnessed the skyline


Fall to ground


By the force of a pilot


But nobody questioned


Why we were violent


To innocent children


Who never learned to fly yet


Flying our flags


Like the new age pirates


Spreading our views


With new age advertisements


Billboards rise


And the landfills piling


For miles with plastic


The mall keeps us smiling



The mall keeps us smiling SMILING



Chorus :


From my view it is clear what they don’t really care about us


But I know and believe for the world to succeed we need us repeat 6x



From my view it looks like people care about


themselves


Care about capitalism


Care about progress


Care about looking good


Care about their own personal belief system


Religion


Care about money


Care about covering things up


Care about winning


Care about being right


Care about


US

7 Reasons why becoming a member of Beat365 rocks.

As you already might know I go by the alias Undakova (Undercover) and I am beat maker, DJ and MC here in NYC. I have been producing hip hop beats since the 90s and have produced my own hip hop instrumentals for my album created here in New York City. I often get asked by R & B artist and MCs "Can you produce some beats for my album?" One day the question popped up in my head "Where does an artist find great sounding Hip hop, r&b and rap beats that sound so good you play them in your car for fun as well as record song after song with them?" If an artist doesn't have a friend or business partner who is a producer or know how to/ want to produce beats on there own spare time (which can take a lot of time and money) where does he/she find a complete collection of hip hop beats? Well the answer is simple. . . . To find Hip hop, r&b and rap beats that sound so good you play them in your car for fun as well as record song after song with them go to Beats365...

Can somebody say Amen

After a week of seeing different people come in our house and leave our house with smiles on there faces still our sublet process is not complete. I wake up today and meditate my stress's away. Well most of em. Yesterday I spent all day working on a proposal for a school in Washington heights who seem to be interested in having an after-school program formulated by my company Willpowa. Weeks went by and I spent my days working on music and completing songs in the studio only to leave the proposal writing up to a trusted friend and fellow mc. Suffice to say it never got completed due to my energy being scattered amongst recording and subleting my place. Not to mention being a good boyfriend through the process. So turns out my friends from the UK want to look over it this weekend so I will have to submit the proposal in a bit late anyhow but hopefully with more spunk than it had in the first place. Anyway lets just say the only thing that helped me from not having a nervous breakdow...
