The Message

The Message

"The Message"

depressions of life getting through my ventricles
as im put down by others who are like me, disectable
intellectuals spit truth to support the cause
but little flaws is what keeps our future lost
rules and laws made to downgrade my people
no future just death so there is not part 2 or sequel
treated unequal so i fight for my God given rights
a revolutionaries plight exposing darkness to light
living in this so called democracy ran by hypocrisy
that labels my philosophy as terrorist acts and animosity
so in the land of opportunity there is no chance to advance
against all odds still i rise and take a furious stance
but when i glance at the future i see war and bloodshed
corruption as the rich get richer and poor starve instead
Jesus bled and sacrificed but still there will never be peace
we still killing each other like an unstopable plauge or disease
so i plead unity atleast, to once again become the majority
leading us back to our days of prosperity and street glory
but untold stories depict our people and leave us blind
the hidden truth has us in a pessimistic state of mind
its not hard to find my message isnt anything new or complicated
we must unite and overcome even though we will always be discriminated
