Pay Attention in the Back

Room feel like a cell
My rap emotional as hell
Aversive to the surface level bullshit type emotions
Blunt smokin kinda beat
My music number 23
I may not be
I may not be
I may not be
I may not be

So lemme spell it out
After what I be sayin bout
The damaged world I live in power lyin stealin killin

The fear finding out losin someone I love by means of legal killin
They ain't run into a thug
By this I mean the pills, the ones doctor had perscribe
The ones they feedin everyone quote keep in us alive

But hold up wait a second I'm about to run it back
Lemme define thug pay attention in the back
A thug a violent person plain and simple you can see
So why the google image search brothas walkin free
It's cuz to Doug and Ned to Gary Ryan and the rest
We should be pickin cotton servin massa you expect
Sorry I ain't sorry they let niggas learn to read
And sorry I ain't sorry got a graduate degree
It's prolly kinda scary
It's prolly kinda wild
To see a role model that can mirror every child

So salute to the Halles and the Chadwick's of the world
A beautiful example for our little boys our little girls
It's something they can see
A life of possibility
This list goes on and on

But that's the way it need to be to change a hateful planet
Powers Combined we make a change I ain't The first to say it
Blue hero for the love
The orange spreadin hate
Juxtaposin Captain Planet n the leader of the states

Truth be told politically I ain't on Noone's side
I just don't fuck wit people feedin hungry people lies
Y'all no what I mean
I live on 7th street
Where the homeless make their homes in the shadow of their dreams
They say it kinda sad
But then they turn their back
A mansion in the hills ain't botherin with that
Cuz the people look like me
Truth ain't hard to to see
Supremacist kill more than the jihadi swear to the
God you love the book you use to back that ignorant shit
You tellin two dudes they love worse than killin kids
Sorry I ain't if my lines is aoutta line
But I think that concentration camps are slightly less than fine
Insufferable unreasonable inappropriate for the world
Excuses out the ass for stealin baby boys and girls
I'm running outta lines
On A journey through my mind
But wait before I finish imma say another time

My room feel like a cell
My rap emotional as hell
Aversive to the surface level bullshit type emotions
