How many more tears until we rise from our fears?
Dreams usually take years, but zero tolerance for hate
brings us to what we have here.
Not sure if the masses really want change.
Seems like our benzes and gucci bags have us blinded
right underneath our wishes of fame.
We all want a piece of the cake,
but sometimes we just don't need it.
Educated just to work for someone else.
Educated just to carry another man's burden.
It's scary how we get caught up in the whirlwinds of political genocide
and they blame our communities for the countless homicides.
They scrutinize us for wanting the freedoms we've always been denied
Yet we have to depend on these 9-5's,
just to have the necessities to stay alive.
Seems like we're not too far removed from the chains and the slave ships.
Lack of education leaves our brothers in the industrial revolution of prison economics.
I guess we really are still a people praying to be released from bondage.
How many more days until the day of judgement is near?
How can we get our souls right when we're forced to churn Babylon's wheels?
How much longer will we continue to be in a slumber?
I hope my people wake up from the complacencies their living under.
