Fiends of the System

Why would any person give into the system?
Materialism, drug abuse, complacency
As a child you are told to dream
Dream for the biggest house, the fanciest car, the best clothes
Give the people fast cash with no tax, trap them in poverty stricken area codes
Temporary fixes because tomorrow isn't promised
Lifetime prison sentence due to the hustle of narcotics
Win for today but lose for forever
Go to school and pay the government until the day you die
Do those degrees keep you warm when you're struggling to survive?
How will you ever pay those thousands of borrowed dollars just for a piece of paper
White collar jobs aren't for all the young black and gifted
Education, segregation, whats your interpretation
We will always remain niggers in suits no matter how far we've come
The pale skin still has you bought into the system in which you thought you had overcome.
Chant down babylon
Tear down the societal walls
Boycott against the dreams which were never yours
They will never know the hour or day when judgement will be upon us
Rise up and take a stand for only your soul can be saved
These skin and bones are temporary
Don't let your selfish oughts be the reason you die in vain.
