about

Had this idea in the tank for a while now. Like, August 2019. Cause racism isn't going anywhere anytime soon. Unfortunately for all of us.

lyrics

Lyrics:

Trying to solve the puzzle of a pistol with the muzzle of a missile
jutting at the jugular of a colored muggle to misuse
I don't have a free shoulder to bury your burdens into
I been through with you

the notion of a war with a potent opponent in a sword
carrying scars too sore to record or ignore
or absorb into the white washing of a lore
that endured and destroyed the talking of the Lord

I guess you knew better, better or worse ready or not
competitive shots the valley and the ghetto is hot
pedaling regrettable federal crops
that come home to roost like when Kennedy was shot

if i hold these truths as evidence
exhibit A is the ricochet of blame off my skin in the game
that echoes my benevolence
like I'm forgetful to the history your questioning

and the rage that's invested in the best of men
could just kill a man hanging from the cypress as a testament
to the nations finest specimen of trigger man
with blood on his hands still trying to box with God at the meadowlands

a long way between you and forever man
we all guilty ain't no better than brother man
ain't no running to the motherland you from this island
and filthy with the empathy that keeps us dying
cheers to the offspring of American violence
