![Shadia Mansour feat Omar Offendum - We Have to Change [EN|GR|ES|FR]](/img/n.gif)
I remember 8 years ago it was my first year in college, the English language course instructor gave us an exam where he would give us an essay to write without knowing the topic beforehand. The topic was money. This song inspired me to write that essay and I was crying while I was writing it. I got a full mark in that exam, and the instructor made me read it out loud for the whole class to listen. Lowkey shaped my personality as a human being through his music.
FREE PALESTINE!!!! from McAllen Texas!!!! viva Lowkey!!!!!
Love this Jam!

positive beautiful music for the soul...
Lowkey we need you to guide us. I cannot tell you how much your music has influenced me, only if you knew the impact you have had in shaping my beliefs and personality. Your music has got me through some very tough times. I just wish you would read this and one day consider returning to music. We need you brother, the world can be a very dark place.
Love from New Zealand
I can honestly say this music shaped me into a better person. Music is so powerful it really can change peoples lives for the better or for the worse. Thank you for doing it for the better.
@xWXDXx ummmm...OK blud, He didn't loose his luggage I was just saying that there are always unseen elements that must temper our judgements. Thanks for pointing out this Aero ting though. Peace and respect to you.
first 5 seconds n i was sold
Great song!
@DjSkittS Yup it's called 'Money', True Lowkey supporters already knew this song last year!
@MzKGeneration he obviously meant that but it just flowed better saying abolish the queen and plus it's her face on the notes so it fits the lyric better in that sense aswell
lowkey is so underrated
Deeeeep
big up lowkey
@MyVideos7861 ...and yet on your channel you state that you like the following: "Saw 3d, insidious, chucky 1 2 and 3, hostel 1 and 2, halloween 1 and 2, harry potter 1 to 7, JLS eyes wide open, Transformers 1, 2, and 3,". All full of music and no revolutionary message. Plus you favourite Sami Yusuf's Music. That make you a.........
....and yet my children would feel so much safer in Cuba than in America which incarcerates more people than any other country and profits from them in the process (plus the UK) More Rape, Murder, Incest, burglary, embezzlement, counterfitting, cheating, Racism, peodiaphilia, Pornography, drug abuse, media lies, suicide, alcoholism, obesity, waste, war-mongering and so on all wrapped in a sugar coating. You forget that we're taught that America also had a Rev....and defo needs another one.
how can you dislike this? It was blatantly Bush!
By the way he acts in his videos he has to be a great guy :P
303,656 views? ......how very saddening.
What Shadia sings in the chorus ??
I hear this that:
"If you take something you, don't need, and keep it
Then you started(?) from somebody else who's hungry
Everything that you do, is everything you are
Everything that I am, is everything you ever need."
But this "started" makes no sense for me in this line.
Lowkey is not just a rapper he is philosopher and a poet. Great work, this is real.
You know the song is good when you hear it and you can say i have learned something today.
I believe music is a powerful tool for transmitting messages and opening the mind. Love such songs.
Underrated comment and song
Everyday
Facts!
2024 for this masterpiece. My guy was rapping wisdom from day one.
You Prize fool! We went to Cuba with Lowkey and obviously spoke to many Cubans. The video isn't about Castro. It's about everyday people and their own struggles and giving them a salute as fellow human beings. Having said that, Castro over Bushbama any day.
amazing lyrics and video. viva CUBA! PALESTINIA! IRAQ! one love and solidarity
+monse verjel +Syria!
IAN happle thats right! Human solidarity. One planet ;)
Is anyone in any charities helping these people? I don't mean sending money, but actually helping first hand?
.
IAN happle
im pretty sure there are, not enough, but yes... "i dont believe in charity i believe in solidarity. Charity is vertical, so it goes from top to bottom. Solidarity is horizontal. it respects the other and learns from the other. i have a lot to learn from other people." -Eduardo Galeano ... ...thats what youre talking about :)
Just discovering Lowkey.
God, I've been missing on too much.
I'm already a fan.
Thanks man.
Allah bless you.
Need to look into Akala and Immortal technique
Can't believe this only has 760K views, it needs at least 760 Million i guess even youtube is controlled by the corrupted..
True
Peace @15kuba15. From Shadia: "If you take something you don't need and keep it,
then you stole it from sombody else whose hungry,
everything that you do, is everything you are, everything that I am is
everything you'll ever need"
This isn't rap, this is poetry with a beat.

Jozef Wicks-Sharp Thats not what i was saying either. I would recomend you listening to "behind my painted smile" Its awesome
When LOWKEY returns from retirement it will be yet another era of blessings. You helped awaken me bro. Like you my style is a lecture but like not many today you spit SO MUCH truth and knowledge. BLESS FAM
Man i dont think global faction gets enough credit for directing and filming these beautiful lowkey videos. Salute my dude!!!!! Cant even count how many times ive watched these videos. Lowkeys music moves me...
I am 66 yrs old. Thought I was always learning after formal schooling, yet at this age Lowkey is teaching me more than I could have ever imagined. Look deeper always to the Question of why Worldwide. I don't like or abide by what the States have done to the World and her People. How can I ever repay for ALL that has been gifted through Lowkey 's intelligence and philosophy?!
Cuba looks beautiful
Eradicated poverty, hungry and iliteracy, yes, it is.

Lowkey freeing gangsters from the illusion. So boss.
much love and support from chicago! keep waking up homie
+Takoda Landeros Gonzales refuse to commit to the gangster illusion
good to see a northerner waking up, woodie has some good songs with great message
money has never brought me happiness neither has material things.
Resorting to the external (outer) world to find peace and happiness is equivalent to celoptating sandwiches to ones body in an attempt to feed your hunger.
"To consume abundant food and clothing is to borrow the outer energy."
- Lao Tzu
(what is borrowed must be returned)
"It funny , cause money doesn't follow us when we leave"!
Tell em Bro
It is .....
The problem is that love is gone.. We have pushed it under the rough.
We need to take it back and give it to the people! Where it should be.
Knowledge is power, so when I say "POWER TO THE PEOPLE" I actually say: "Knowledge to the People". With the riight information we can start changing the world and open the eyes of those who are still blinded by lies, greed and hate.
Viva Cuba ! We poor, but money can't buy happiness.
"do you possess money or by money are you possessed?" "does happiness live in a mansion with a swimming pool?" lowkey has my eternal love and respect.
Viva Cuba! Latin America also imposes imperialism, as well as Iran! Notice how all of these countries have been punished by the U.S.. Iran have had over 30 years of sanctions while Cuba has the blockade.
Ye mean is aGhAinsT it.
Hope to see you tomorrow at this - info below. Free documentary screening starts at 6pm, followed by Q&A with Jody McIntyre & Kareem Dennis (aka rapper Lowkey) talking about our recent visit to Venezuela and our forthcoming documentary 'Hip Hop Revolucion'.
Then musical fundraiser is from 8pm till late.

stil listening to this 6 years on 💚
bless your soul
2018!!!
8 years on
9 years on bro, timeless classic
The revolution will never die
I prefer Drake's song 'Too Much'... Lol joking Lowkey when you're ready please return!
fuck drake what a joke
theres a place in this world for happy funtime girlish rappers in this world, too. somewhere. drake does his thing, and is the only non-US rapper to ever be on top in america. Luckily real men don't live in america and so don't have to deal with it. Hiphop isnt at the forefront of US imperialism anymore, other countries dont care who is top in america anymore they have their own standards. In other words nobody cares about drake enough to justify a joke about drake
2020 anyone?
7 years later and I’m still listening ☺️♥️
Shadia has a beautiful voice.
Lowkey and Shadia Mansour. Underrated artists for sure.
nothing but love for this guy and his music has helped me through many mental struggles peace and love people
As a white western journalist working from within the machine I have an enormous amount of respect for Lowkey, his beliefs and his message.
We need more like him and we need them NOW.
The true state of the world situation is a far cry from the candy coated, over simplified bullshit we were all spoon fed from birth.
Ask questions, demand answers and never trust a fucking word that comes from the lips of politicians or corporate leaders.
You keep making the music and I'll keep bumping it loud.
I love you, Lowkey.
I could never get tired of this song.
LETRA
if you down with the rich man, and that can be rich in anything,
Don't you take too much,
If you laugh at a poor man, and that can be poor in anything,
Don't you laugh too much,
If you tryin to be rich man, and that can be rich in anything
Don't you take too much,
And if you need to be needed, and you're lookin' for purpose,
Just remember, don't you need too much…
If you take something you, don't need, and keep it
Then you stole it from somebody else who's hungry
Everything that you do, is everything you are
Everything that I am, is everything you ever need.
Money can buy power, but it can't buy respect
Money can't buy sleep, but it can buy a bed
Money can't buy you love, but it can buy sex
Do you posses money or by money are you possessed?
Money can buy a house, but it can't buy a home
So even with money you still feel all alone
Money can buy you friends, but it can't buy family
Money can't make you happy, that's just a fallacy
It can buy a bath, but it can't buy purity
It can buy bodyguards, but it can't buy security
While people around the world starve, I eat
Cause money can buy war, but it can't buy peace
Some do everything and anything to get the p's
The society we livin' in, it's a necessity
It's got the power to turn your best friends to enemies
It's funny cause money doesn't follow us when we leave.
If you take something you, don't need, and keep it
Then you stole it from somebody else who's hungry
Everything that you do, is everything you are
Everything that I am, is everything you ever need.
Does happiness live in a mansion with a swimming pool?
I know people with plenty of money that are miserable
We all need to earn in this world we live
Most work for it, some steal, but many worship it
Some sell poison for it, some seek employment for it
We need it to survive, so some clean the toilets for it
I need papes to live but never will I live for papes
Abolish the Queen, I don't wanna see that witches face
Many sell their soul for it, no not me
Some will try to tell you that it doesn't grow on trees
I heard the sayin said, many a time, but they were wrong
Cause if it doesn't tell me where do you get the paper from?
Most think they will be happy if they only had more of it
Some wasted, some feel more important because they're born with it
Some have got the nerve to say you're fraudulent for forging it
The truth is you don't need a fortune to be fortunate.
If you take something you, don't need, and keep it
Then you stole it from somebody else who's hungry
Everything that you do, is everything you are
Everything that I am, is everything you'll ever need.
Money corrupts the world
Viva Cuba libre!
❤ we're born with the tools we need... a heart!
They're not materialistically rich(Cubans and Venezuelans),but they're rich inside.They're happy because their country works for them,not for greedy,evil corporates and bankers.I have endless respect for them,they are martyrs of the free world,against imperialism,against capitalism.Their countries may not be perfect but they're trully indepedent.
STOP TALKING OUT OF YOUR ASS! Venezuela is not independent, China owns half the country and the other half is owned by their corrupt nepotistic government. The Venezuelan people are suffering, and more so than the "capitalistic" countries surrounding them. Since Chavéz took over Venezuela has been spiraling downwards, and populistic comments glorifying communism/socialism without any true knowledge or insight into the real situation only worsen the situation. Inform yourself and don't support things you don't understand.
Cuba is truly an inspiration but Venezuela has been long fucked.
USA has been stockpiling goods and food and taking it off of the market. They have stifled Venezuela. Maybe you can learn something too before telling others to learn.
@@konogomang people confuse antiimperialism with actual good policies. Many socialists (not just statists, but even anarchists) are ready to take the bait of a "communist" discourse and end up glorifying some awful governments. Even Cuba and Vietnam, two very different answers to a half century of hardships, should answer for their secret police, and in vietnam's case the oppression of ethnic minorities. You too brother, don't confuse socialism with parroting demagogues; look for true socialism in social organizations, labor unions, smaller parties, and never forget we as humans are fallible; too many comrades have, and have so allowed much evil.
@@grovepark7983 NOBODY said the US is not the biggest pile of shit, nor that they have interfered in Venezuela economically and even violently. However, a big pile of shit does not magically make smaller shitstains golden. Maduro's government, even more so than Chavez's, has sustained itself on masking military oppression with demagoguery and a socialist discourse. Does that make the US good? No. Does that mean Guaidó is any better? Definitely not. Still no excuse for their actions
deep love for you lowkey man, wish i could meet you man. whats happening brother to this world.
you are deep compassionate person bro it hurts my heart listening to this.
I love this song for its meaning but I can't get over the fact he glorifies Venezuela, a country run by a modern-day dictator, where the average person is suffering. Venezuela is not imperfectly its own, half the country is owned by the Chinese for god's sake.
konogomang have you been to Venezuela while Chavez was alive?
Just seeing your response now.. I personally have not, but my girlfriend grew up there until she was 22. The situation was definitely better when Chavez was alive, but far from good. Now with Maduro the country has really become much worse, she actually visited her family few months ago and would on occasion wake up to gunshots in the morning, that's the state of the country's capital right now. And don't forget that Maduro was appointed by Chavez as his successor. Tell me, have you been to Venezuela? Have you lived there? Don't get me wrong I love Lowkey but when a country opposes USA that does not automatically make that country great or faultless, just look at North Korea.
lowkey is the few positive icons out there......this song shows "you can have everything but have nothing".....the people of cuba have been suffering economically for so long now yet they walk around with smiles on there faces....LONG LIVE CUBA!!

I've had the pleasure of meeting him... Such a humble and great soul, need more real talk like this! Nuff love
Beautiful
Hold on! he accused us of spreading misinformation. When someone comments with venom and casts a lie against us, the artists, or uses racism or speaks in favour of oppressors we'll verbally bash them. Look at some of the comments we've replied to on our videos. Our replies trouble you more than nasty comments against Arabs, Africans, Muslims, White MC's questioning the system, etc? "Constantly bash them" is what haters do to artists who have a good message to share.
that's what's up brother! Let em know what time it iZ?✌️
Truth is you don't need a fortune to be fortunate
You are the fortune, for the other person as such making the other a fortune worth for you. The need is of peace and the action is trough unity
nice colourful video real lyrics! money helps! but i cannot buy you real happyiness. when my daughter was born and i looked at her beautifull face materialistic shit all goes stright out of the window. be happy smile or make some1 smile live life happy we as individuals were put here for a reason be happy people.

That's what happens to every country that dares to fight for their freedom, Haitian revolution (1791). My Haitian brothers and neighbors had to pay 150 million francs in indemnity or basically for fighting to be recognize as humans and for their freedom. This resulted in them being the poorest country in the world today, not gonna find that in no history books. #blacklivesmatter/humanlivesmatters
