Look at today's wangsters
How they’re trying to rhyme
It’s insane and profane to even think
That those slackers got style
Rap ain’t about cursing
Nor is it about your money
Not about your b!tches but who is poor and got nothing
I’ve turned into a martyr, a martyr of rap
I’d rather die spitting facts instead of complying with Wayne’s crap
I’ve just had it with today’s pop culture hip-hop
How they’re trying to be people that’re real while they are not
It’s a shame that today’s game doesn’t have substance
I pray constant that one day would come on knocking
Where reality is the only thing emcees are saying
A day where hip-hop is a game worth playing
But
Does it really matter if I pray or not?
People who talk truth
Are ignored or get shot
Does it really matter if I spit facts or lie?
In the end, I’ll take the truth with me
On the day I die
But still I keep rapping
It’s an outlet for me
An outlet for my feelings and the events that I see
Sh!t happens every day and you can’t walk around it
Happiness and love, people can’t live without it
But in this cruel world, where are we supposed to find it
If you don’t have a house or food to feed your child and
Don’t have the money because the rich suppress you
Just to ensure their wealthy life can be continued
If your country’s at war just to gain more power
Knowing people die because of it every hour
Families are crushed by the madness of men
Greediness so incomprehensible it can’t be written down with a pen
Then what has this world become and what’s it to be?
Will there ever be a day where equality is part of reality?
Still I keep praying for that day to come
The day where the world is worth saving one
But
Does it really matter if I pray or not?
People who talk truth
Are ignored or get shot
Does it really matter if I spit facts or lie?
In the end, I’ll take the truth with me
On the day I die
Does it even matter if I pray or not?
People who talk truth
Are ignored or get shot
Does it even matter if I spit facts or lie?
In the end, I’ll take the truth with me
On the day I die

Thought it would be cool to add vocals and it did sound good to me. The only problem I had was finding a good acapella version of the song, didn't find it so to ensure maximum quality vocals, I used to original track and compressed the instruments as much as I could.
Also the beat starts earlier in this version in comparison to the instrumental one due to matching the beat with the vocals.
Last but not least, I added a download link (mediafire) in the description of the video so you can download this remix. The reason why I did this is because Youtube has the awful habit lately to basically bonk up the sound quality of my vids. This time once again, resulting in a choppy part around the middle of the song.
This problem probably won't be in the downloadable version so yeah, if the Youtube glitch bothers you, you can always download it and listen to it that way ;)
