Testo What's Goin' Down - TobyMac

Testo della canzone What's Goin' Down (TobyMac), tratta dall'album Double Take

Stop! What's that everybody?
Stop! What's that everybody?
What's goin' down? Tell me what's goin' down?
What's goin' down? Tell me what's goin' down?
Welcome to the world of a kid named Mikey
He who had only one reason to be hated, by whitey (by whitey)
Raised on a farm outside of South Bend
Where they hated on him 'cause he was African American
But three years later, Mikey was the town pride
Basketball Mikey went and got himself a full ride
Earned his acceptance on the hardwood floor
And that's something white America would never ignore
Stop! Hey! What's that sound?
Everybody, look what's goin' down
Stop! Hey! What's that sound?
Everybody, look what's goin' down
What's goin' down? Tell me what's goin' down?
I wanna know just what's goin' down?
What's goin' down? I'll tell ya what's goin' down
You wanna know just what's goin' down?
Take a look around
Everything is comin' down
Do you hear the subtle sounds
Of our morality slippin'?
People on the go
We'll be reapin' what we sow
Yeah, we say we want to know
But I got my suspicions
Now, welcome to the world of a girl named Susie
Susie's only crime was that she was born a cutie
Physically abused by her uncle and his friends
Alcohol let 'em all leave the house with grins
But Susie couldn't shake off the memories (the memories)
Forced to find her own kind of remedy (remedy)
A man-eater for the rest of her days
Three kids, three men, no daddies by eleventh grade (rest of her days)
Stop! Hey! What's that sound?
Everybody, look what's goin' down
Stop, children, what's that sound?
Everybody, look what's goin' down
What's goin' down? Tell me what's goin' down?
I wanna know just what's goin' down?
What's goin' down? I'll tell ya what's goin' down
You wanna know just what's goin' down?
Take a look around
Everything is comin' down
Do you hear the subtle sounds
Of our morality slippin'?
People on the go
We'll be reapin' what we sow
Yeah, we say we want to know
But I got my suspicions
What be goin' diggy down?
What be goin' diggy down?
What be goin' diggy down?
When you find what you lost
But you lose what you found
What be goin' diggy down?
What be goin' diggy down?
What be goin' diggy down?
When you find what you lost
But you lose what you found
What be goin' diggy down?
What be goin' diggy down?
What be goin' diggy down?
When you find what you lost
But you lose what you found
Stop! Hey! What's that sound?
Everybody, look what's goin' down
What's goin' down? Tell me what's goin' down?
I wanna know just what's goin' down?
What's goin' down? I'll tell ya what's goin' down
You wanna know just what's goin' down?
Stop! Hey! What's that sound?
What's goin' down? Tell me what's goin' down?
Stop! Hey! What's that sound?
You wanna know just what's goin' down?
Stop! Hey! What's that sound?
Everybody, look what's goin' down
Stop, hey, stop, hey, stop, hey
Stop, hey, stop hey, stop
