XV - “Imagine”
[Verse I]
Imagine if Heaven and Hell was having an open house for one day, would you really wanna go?
Imagine if our own government was responsible for the World Trade Center, would you really want to know?
Imagine if the slave codes never happened, and you wouldn’t be a slave because of your black skin
Imagine Kramer never spazzin’ and actin’ on his actions and then seeing him with his black friends
Imagine your family in Sierra Lione, would you glorify having all that ice on?
Imagine if I couldn’t turn my mic on, nobody could hear my thoughts,
So would I still write songs?
Imagine cameras on every block that was patrolled by a New York cop
Imagine if Martin Luther King Jr. was still alive and he got to ride on Coretta Scott King’s side
Imagine the force running lie detector tests before they gave that person a gun
And even though I really hate to say this ‘cuz I know where I’d be, but,
Just imagine if the south had won
Imagine life on other planets, wouldn’t that be too much to manage?
Imagine if you saw God and you knew it
And could’ve asked him one question and you blew it
Imagine that

[Verse II]
Imagine if we was all dead, passed on to this life instead
and when we have deja vu it just means you
had a recurrence of your life up there
Imagine, the gift to see angels, but they can never see you, you can only see them
Then later on finding out that’s because you’re a demon
Imagine this, a blind person gets back their sight
within the first few minutes sees the taking of a life, and the raping of a wife, and the hate within the crime
Would he ask to take back his sight?
No Muslims, no Christians, no races, no religions
One God, one nation, one system
No guns, no weapons, just wisdom
Would you fight to be smart and seem distant?
Imagine that, a breath of fresh air in an asthma attack
Could you fathom that?
Nah, that’s why I said imagine that,
Imagine that
