It's unlocked, cocked, and ready to pop Who’s going to drop, some say hip-hop Some say rock, it’s only a rhythm But what about the system Where the people are the victim Their vision to make the decisions From churches to prisons Preaching that old time religion Created to enslave, from birth to grave Home of the brave, blood red white and blue Yea it wave Demoncracy sold to the masses Placed in classes, so they can sit on their asses As time passes slow as molasses While raising champagne glasses To the core elite, plundering the earth's treats Anything else beneath their feet To not repeat their past defeat Now inborn hate blocking the gate Assuring their faith, dictating your fate To not create a source of debate To somehow escape to a place Where a name is to a face not just a race For if we trace the line We once filled the same space We must now embrace But if we divide we can't stop the ride With false pride to slow the slide If justice not applied, they lied For the past tried and was ultimately decried They want it back, the deck is stack For anything not black, not fiction but fact They are planning an attack Not with WM Destruction but WM Poverty To control and deceive the feeble to believe To achieve eternal life comes through divine strife Holding the blade of the knife To your chest, to lay to rest or to confess So they can bless you with more stress With forgiveness of their light to purge the night Make it right to blur your sight That all must FADE TO WHITE |
