The GZA
Name a word in the dictionary that don't describe me
Consistent contradiction, abiotic life is more likely
The day I leave, arriving like a reeve
Hidden one in high profile, observant as a chief
Remember to breathe and ignore the waste
History at its base, but also in the making
Boots quaking, few notice the ruse they're playing
Home to those that came before, the world is yours
Never heard of lies spoken so confidently out of one's core
Telling comforting fabrications rather than enforcing the truth
Do they still not see the enslavement of the youth?
Deception, justice, lack of independence, it's reprehensive
Direct descendents and ancestors more alike than we're all pretending
Maybe now that I lightened up the mood, and wounds are soothed
More people are out there thinking, though internally bruised
Just keep that mental view high and get you some soul food
Something wrong with this poem?
