FADE TO WHITE; Poem

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
