Raps with DJ Doc: Gary
My name is Gary and I like Steak
and Shake. If I can change the world there
would be less earthquakes. Cuz many
people die and buildings crumble, I
always get scared when I feel the deep
rumble.
Words That Change the World: Imani
Look at the way that we living our life, we would
rather pull out a gun instead of a knife. Remember
the people who fought in the Civil Rights, they put
little light in the darkness of the night. Take MLK

dream and it actually came true. Read More
Words That Change the World: Leilani
Look at the way we livin our lives,
guns, weapons, and some knives, give us
our peace, give us our world,
cuz curled up in the corner, getting
all sad, don’t get mad, make our
world glad. Get up, and give
this world some peace, cuz sittin there
lookin at yo neice ain’t gonna
change a single thing, gotta
bet the king, gotta be the queen,
don’t be mean, pelase be nice, if
you wanna be nice you gotta pour
the steam on that ice. Break from your
cage, break from your hate, don’t stand
there and just regulate, be the power,
be the freedom, come on just
you and me let’s go change the
world that you wish to see.
