The Box
We're all in a box
Within it we're born to think outside of it
They say the sky is the limit
With a footprint on the moon
I guess they disguised the limit
Outside the box they say " Reach for the stars like the ones on the flag!"
Inside they say "We're gonna put in behind bars like the ones on the flag!"
Now we the minorities have morphed mentalities
Desensitized to crime
Call it a casual casualty
And the men brag
"Look at me, getting rich chasing that bag
Toting guns for fun then your son tip toes to see your toe tag
Another casualty
We have to get out of this box.
