You don't know me but I'm your sister
I was raised here in this living hell
You don't know my kind in your world
Fairly soon the time will tell
You, telling me the things you're gonna do for me
I ain't blind and I don't like what I think

I seeTakin' it to the streets
Takin' it to the streets
Takin' it to the streets
Takin' it to the streets

Take this message to my brother
You will find him everywhere
Wherever people live together
Tied in poverty's despair
You, telling me the things you're gonna do for me
I ain't blind and
I don't like what

I think I seeTakin' it to the streets
Takin' it to the streets
Takin' it to the streets
Takin' it to the streets
