[Intro]
Another mother's child
[Verse 1]
Another mother's child lay dying
Caught up in the games that people play
You think guns are the only answer
But words can have a stronger say
[Chorus]
I feel like zoomin'
I feel like zoomin', baby
Zoomin' away from here now
I, I feel like zoomin', oh yeah
Zoomin' away from here
[Verse 2]
If a brother is really your brother
Does is matter the colors that he wears?
But every brother is your brother
Can you hear me?
But I don't think you really care
[Chorus]
I feel like zoomin'
Gotta change the way we think about it
Zoomin' away from here now
I, I feel like zoomin', oh yeah
Zoomin' away from here
[Bridge]
One mother's love shot down in a minute
But you know, there's two mothers crying
One son has paid the price, lost his life
One's locked away but they're both gone this day
Crazy love, how long is this gonna go on?
Feel like zoomin'
Gotta find a better place right now
Feel like zoomin'
Gotta go on up a little higher
There's so much trouble going on all around us
We've got to find a better way of thinking
Zoomin' is just a change in space to a place
That's in your mind, and it's not hard to find
And it's not hard to find
I feel like zoomin', oh yeah
Zoomin' away from here
Let me tell you
Do you want a better place?
Don't you want a better space?
Let's go zoomin'
You know, it's never hard to find
It's just inside your mind
Let's go zoomin', oh yeah
I feel like zoomin'
Feel like zoomin', baby
Zoomin', yeah
Zoomin' away from here now
I, I feel like zoomin', oh yeah
Zoomin' away from here
[Outro]
Do you want a better place?
Don't you want a better space?
Let's go zoomin'
You know, it's never hard to find
It's just inside your mind
Let's go zoomin', oh yeah
