Song Lyrics:

Take a second and imagine somethings that ever happened way back/ Imagine living life in a shack...with no securiy when the cops are the ones who attack/ And the community always fighting each other like that Imagine yourself, standing in the midle o'the streets screamin for peace.../ While the tear gas makes u cough and sneeze... as you tryna The find it easy to squeeze.../ Now its gonna be heartbreaking when you imagine this... Sam's hello,m was just yesterday...hell no Sam's dead today We all gotta stay low man this "mellow yellow" on the way/ Cant imagine hiding under the bed like everyday... And every single kid wished they ever handled a hand grenade/ Just imagine when life is like "ukthatha machance"... Can't imagine myself sittin in a class of Afrikaans, And my black teacher always demandin that I should pass.. I cant imagine having questions but never getting answers, when I ever get to ask Take a second and imagine this Would you really face a bullet with a stone and stick Take a second...tell me n*ggr would you really last a second Take a second and imagine this Take a pose tell me if you fit.. Take a second and imagine this, Put yourself in one of the pics of '76 Now take a second and imagine, How it feels having a dream when you can never get to live it.. I can't imagine the hell, all the "kwela kwela's", the pressure.. The murder, murderers never get caught unfairness jus filling the mind of a w#!t3 fella... Imagine being said, when nobody says sorry... Imagine being black as you see that "Whites Only" board/ No rights homey...got no one to blame it on Except having the fact that you gon' die if u reported/ Just imagine all the tears and the fake smiles... Mommy making it look good, daddy goin to exile... Cops on the doorsteps...with dogs and the "metal", Ready to blow any by the name of a K@77!r/ Take a second... Be thankful of your life, ungabi-dom.. Keep thinking that somebody gave his life...for your freedom, And you thinkin that we gettin lost, Keep looking back.. See the progress man we still going strong, TAKE A SECOND Take a second and imagine this Would you really face a bullet with a stone and stick Take a second...tell me n*ggr would you really last a second Take a second and imagine this Take a pose tell me if you fit.. Take a second and imagine this, Put yourself in one of the pics of '76
