Classified - People (Official Video)

Directed by Brothers Boyd
Lighting by Dave Hamilton
Produced by Chipper

Lately, I don't really like people
I don't like white people,
Any type of people, dark, light people. I don't like people
I don't care if you're gay or straight, people
If you go both ways all day, people
Still gonna sit here and hate people, thinking,

Maybe we're underdeveloped
Trying to understand, maybe we're jealous
Maybe we wanna believe what they tell us
Over-embellish the things that we say when we're feeling rebellious
I relish in thought
How come this world is so selfish and lost?
We mark it up, never sell it at cost
I think that I've had it with everyone, y'all
I don't like atheists or the churchgoers
Pray to God that the worst is over
But I know the truth is gonna hurt tomorrow
And it's all our fault, ain't it?
Not one person
All of us
Not one race
All of us
Not one faith
All of us
There's only one place
For all of us

People
People
People
People

I don't really like people
I don't like young people
I don't like old people, or smart people or dumb people
I don't care if you're vaxxed or antivaxx
If you cover your face or anti-mask
Still gonna sit here and hate people
Thinking, why do we rate people?
I don't like Democrats or the Republicans
I ain't conservative, I ain't progressive, nah I don't want none of them
I've had enough of them
I don't like politics or climatologists
Every day hearing about our apocalypse
We're resorting to leaving on rocket ships
'Cause we got comfortable with our incompetence, man
It's hard to believe in people
Nowadays I don't like meeting people
Vegan people, meat-eating people
You really think I care what you're eating, people?
I don't care what you look like, what your job is, or where you came from
When it comes down to it, we all play dumb and it's all our fault, ain't it?

Not one person.
All of us.
Not one faith
But all of us
Not one race, all of us
Why do we hate all of us?
Give your head a shake, all of us
We need to be great, all of us
They try to separate all of us
Don't let them separate all of us, people

People
People
People
People

People
How come we dwell on irrelevant detail?
We're fussing and fighting over differences
Don't make a difference if you fail then we fail
Doesn't matter the color your skin is
Doesn't matter your age or your sex or religion
Look,
I'll love you for being yourself
But I hate the division that's growing within us
That's why I don't like people
I don't like broke people
Or rich people, drunk people, or sober people
Really, I don't wanna know you, people
But somebody's gotta show you, people
We gotta start looking at the bigger picture
Or soon it's gonna be over, people.

Most days I wake up and i'm in a great mood, loving life, loving everyone.. but some days, I read the news/ get on social media and i can't stand anyone. It feels like we're always grasping on to any way to divide ourselves as a society. 

If you're someone who just reads the headline or falls for click bait.. you might not like this song. If you made it to the end of the video... you might just agree with me .

I hope you understand the message I'm trying to get across with this song and video .. there’s too much separation in this world, and I want this song to bring people together. Remembering the past and taking lessons from it is important, acknowledging the injustices that come with individual differences, but as we move forward, let's build a future that celebrates our differences without letting it separate us. 

Cause lately... I don't really like people.

and a big thanks to everyone who helped make this video happen and to those who shared their stories on camera. we asked people to write down names they've been called in their lives. Names that hurt them. We did this to show that we're not just defined by what people think of us, and we can take back any power that those names might have over us.

[classifiedmusic]

appreciate all the comments i been reading... I was worried a lot of people wouldn`t get it, , thanks for checking this out and taking the time to comment and share this song/video/message

[rosshurlbert]

I wish this could be sung/played on loud speakers across the globe. Outstanding!!!

[fizzy_]

As always, this isn't just a song. It's a story, a message, originality. Classified deserves a lot more attention then he gets, his music has a better message than half the music put there today. Keep it up man

[trashpandamanda]

Trying to watch Classified, but getting a steady stream of commercials. Finally, after 2 full minutes of ad time.
At least it was worth it. More awesomeness.

[DoppaD]

This song is criminally underrated. Should have millions of views
