Room For Improvement by A-Train (Swaggy-B) Lyrics
[Chorus 1 Samara 0:12-0:25]
(There’s room for improvement
Gotta start a movement) 3x
There’s room for improvement
[Verse 1 A-Train 0:26-1:06]
The world is at a standstill
Relations at a landfill
Cuz we’ve all had more
Than our fill our violence
I know I’m past my limit
So I’ll lay out my exhibit
Just give me a minute
I don’t wanna see another tamir rice
Cuz somebody had to roll the dice
And somebody else
Had to pay the price
I mean the boy was 12 years old
Were the cops wearing a blindfold
At the same time
Could brothas not tell what
The future beholds
We gotta reshape and mold of youth
Till we get it picture perfect
Photobooth
I ain't never felt the need
For this type of reaction
Cause violence plus
Violence
Equals subtraction
Gotta unite as one faction
[Verse 2 Stallz 1:07-1:55]
…
[Chorus 2 Samara 1:55-2:07]
(There’s room for improvement
Gotta start a movement) 3x
There’s room for improvement
[Verse 2 A-Train 2:07-3:02]
Through indoctrination
There’s a lack of education
Across the nation
On both sides
But in reality both
Just trynna stay alive
We’re told from a young age
That blacks full a rage
And that cops only
Act good onstage
But I ain't trynna watch a movie
Trynna explain this loosely
There’s isn’t just one character type
One gene doesn’t express the whole genotype
But some only focus on the phenotype
Ain't that right
No more coming home for Trayvon Martin
Or Bettie Jones
It the shit likes that
That hits like stones
It’s the shit like that
That gets swept under the rug
And is promised to be fixed
Like a quick bug
But we know it’s more likes a virus
Problems going back so far
Could be written on papyrus
And if you talk about it
Then they fire us
Lord save me 2x
Pretend you desire us
[Chorus 3 Samara [3:02-3:15]
(There’s room for improvement
Gotta start a movement) 3x
There’s room for improvement
(There’s room for improvement
Gotta start a movement) 3x
There’s room for improvement
[Verse 1 A-Train 0:26-1:06]
The world is at a standstill
Relations at a landfill
Cuz we’ve all had more

Cuz somebody had to roll the dice
