letra de frederick douglass said it - arrested development
yeah
the biggest deception is that people do not care
be aware we are here
the despair that you fear
we’re prepared to prepare you
we’re here just to share with you
the traps that are ensnaring you
the unknowns that’s scaring you
our purpose is not surface
it is deep and it is urgent
we can see that you are hurting
try to cut through like a surgeon
but our scalpel is not sharp enough
our lasso is not far enough
wе wrestle with devils the onеs out and the ones inside of us
scarring us
each gun shot that rings out is jarring us
we still remember the days white people feathered and tarring us
days when even the laws said it’s just them and not an us
since then we’ve been on the backs of buses when there’s not a bus
frustrations will even make a christian man learn how to cuss
poverty in our spirits so like squirrels we just gotta nut
men become like wedgies
steady going in and out of b-tts
women become possessed with all the demons cumming from out of us
and it’s real
the battles never been more realer
we’ve been partying and dancing so long
but the wars still going on
the wars still going on
wars still going on (uh huh)
pick up your sword now

its easier to build
strong children
than it is
to repair
broken men
the mountains so high we wonder where to begin?
the white man’s happiness cannot be won
by the black man’s misery cuz all us are one
i thought we done learned this from past things that’s done
african is where every race comes from
there’s a race to be run!
africa’s my origin but that home ive never known
only what i’ve read myself
only what i’m told and shown
i guess that’s why my mind roam lately i’ve been so sedated
guess that’s how i cope with my history being annihilated
this is what i bring to the team
passion, purp and leadership
every 48 hours we snitch when we should plead the fifth
see that white girl take a sniff
see that white horse, need a lift
cocaine never been my thang
but that mary jane, we can burn a spliff
when i see the law i turn and dip
this ish is like a habit now
i’m mashin out
we don’t need no racist cop to pat us down
no crip or blood just camouflage
my daddy was in vietnam
some were taught to k!ll themselves
i was trained for my race to run
