Dollars and profits in politics Profits and dollars Dollars and profits It's so hypnotic I'm nodding off And if God is my witness He nodding too We in the water The fountain of youth They in the pockets The pouch And the loop And you are not what they counted on I want to help you But how can I move when I'm barely grounded? If only the world knew If only the world knew If only the world knew We'd all be moving up If only the world knew If only the world knew If only the world knew We'd all be moving up Tricks and the treats The wick in the heat If you not picking the side You getting picked They be flipping the pie And you getting crumbs Look at the fingers they pointing at you Tell 'em to pick one and then point it back If you do the math They outnumbered Now they gon' act like they love you If only the world knew If only the world knew If only the world knew We'd all be moving up If only the world knew If only the world knew If only the world knew We'd all be moving up Don't act like you know what I'm going through It's hard to do what you supposed to do Don't act like you know what I'm going through It's hard to do what you supposed to do If only the world knew If only the world knew If only the world knew We'd all be moving up If only the world knew If only the world knew If only the world knew We'd all be moving up
