Lyrics
People doing wrong right in my face
Observation of people committing wrong acts directly in front of the speaker.
That's not for me because I have my place
Declaring personal commitment to a specific place or values, distancing from inappropriate actions.
Life is so short why spend it being a fool
Highlighting the brevity of life and questioning the wisdom of wasting it on foolish behavior.
The games you play are just not cool
Criticizing the negative or deceitful actions of others, expressing disapproval.
It's time to wise up
Advocating the need to become wiser or more discerning in life.
You must wise up
Emphasizing the importance for others to also become wiser.
Two wrongs do not make a right
Stating a moral principle that two wrongs don't justify each other.
Because others do it you say you might
Rejecting the excuse of engaging in wrongdoing just because others do it.
Excuses, excuses, are not for me
Dismissing the use of excuses as unacceptable for the speaker.
I've wised up, now I can see
Claiming personal growth and understanding, being able to see through situations.
It's time to wise up
Reiterating the call for others to become wiser.
You must wise up
Emphasizing the imperative for others to wise up.
Count me out
Expressing a decision to disassociate or not participate in certain actions or situations.
Listen, listen, learn to listen
Encouraging active listening and understanding as a crucial skill.
Think of what your life is missing
Prompting reflection on what may be lacking or absent in one's life.
When will you, when will you be
Posing a question about the attainment of true freedom.
Totally free
Asking when one will achieve complete freedom.
