[Nas:] I can feel what was bothering Marvin Why his words forever remain Dealing with these modern day problems 'Cause of ignorance surrounding me and my constituents Too many infected Too many lives diminishing Nobody say Protestants, Jews, Blacks, and Whites, Latinos and Asians Pray together Less fight We better unite As genocide chemical war And the rich and the poor Know that God delivers a cure
[Eve:] It's a shame our reality is devastating People praying for a cure Dying while they're waiting Ask the Lord for the comfort and strength to face it All the kids with dreams Won't get the chance to chase it Makes me sad Think about the lives they would've had Think about the orphan babies got no moms and dads How can we sit back and not try to make it right We gotta come together We gotta fight for life
