letra de acid rain 2̶0̶1̶6̶ - benny starr

stepping in the puddles of another truth
my acid rain stained rubber boots
stepping in the puddles of another truth..

[verse]

favor of god to the souls growing through infantile stages
you’re blessings, seeds, trees… crops, stocks, investments
i bleed on this canvas for your namesake
painstakingly ancient manifestations, of poetic rhymes
spoken in your honor, as you navigate the spirit life
a solemn prayer as you blow your fist, to roll the dice
the voodoo mothers protect your slumber from poltergeist
the rhymes flow, so sonically and sublime
like tonic-tequila-lime poured up over ice
let the record spin
i’m a walking selection of black african diaspora hymns
70’s soul stirring samples and burning candles
half baldwin, a quarter farrakhan — running a marathon
another quarter made my spirit lessen
i was petrified to realize america had gentrified our essence
costs rose, we sold, they took hold to erode the message
i can feel the rain falling, precipitation, weather i can or not
cloudy thoughts, the decision making is so distraught
discrimination and trigger happy policing
lives taken… taken… taken… liam neeson
prison petitions and wickedness kicked by 1 percenters
perverted clergy pimp religion for every incentive
metal machines by the lever squeeze of a neighbor
plow many trees from these acres
turn many seeds from creators to ghosts
the way i float every note that i wrote so notably
got soldiers on each coast, on their planes, boats, to be close to me
capitalism still k!lling all my niggas off
a lack of wisdom confuses value for what it costs
and i’m misused, yet confused
on how to unearth this worth, when i can’t skew my views from the news
scouring filth, i’m showered in guilt
every time i spend a dollar in that system where the powers get rich
i know i’m hated by you
my d-ck is black, enormous and not intimidated by you
my faith is empowering, towering over all your idols
to stop the rise of black messiah before arrival
f-ck it i hate you, i won’t debate you or stand beside you
i’m feeling blue so i channel heru within my spirit
the nazarene seen fleeing through the halls of kemet
this is more than a vision, i abhor your decisions
this a war of attrition
it is written in ancient code, by those cloaked in robes whose souls opposing omission
your wickedness is a disease taken hold of your bones, and i pray for remission
i pray for remission… i pray for remission
for the men, women and children, repeatedly mistreated by policing divisions
i’m colin kaepernick, seated in pleated pants, my stance d-mning your decisions
no f-ck it, i am othello in yellow gold cuban links with a moorish ambition..

acid rain stained rubber boots
stepping in the puddles of another truth..
my acid rain stained rubber boots
stepping in the puddles of another truth..
