The World We Live In
If you Create problems then you create profits
If it’s value is worthless then you can’t trade it on the market
The more sick or dying the healthier the economy
It’s a missed call that’s surrounded by money
If you save a life you lose instead of profit
Your health is your gold without it your worth shit
Laws are created for big Biznezz
Build a prison, that’s money well spent
We live in a world based on consumption
They create & sell, we buy for fulfillment
We’re designed to create from the earth as well as live off of it
We’re too consumed by excess, materialism has captured our existence
Wake up and smell the roses, use your senses
Crime & punishment, should be sensed-less
To keep track & control they number you with their sensus
Break the chains & render to their power-less
It’s a cold world not enough cover to keep warm
When you beez the honey, they swarm
Statistically speaking, were always leading
Prevent the animalistic behavior, there’s no reason
Study history stop feeding into his-story
Read between the lines, discover & solve the mystery
The longer you spin, the more dizzy you become
They feed you stupidity to keep you dumb
Wise up, rise up & stand for true
Change your negative ways to be the best you
Too long the people have been oppressed
Power to the people stop standing for less
We must revert back to our roots, diminish the power of the dollar
Integrity is the stance, let’s embrace our scholar
Black on black crime
White on white crime
No matter the ethnicity
Crime is crime that defines the time
Taught hate destroyed our faith
Blinded us and reshaped our fate
No matter your political party
They decide who gets ice cream & cake
Crazy thing is, we’re the piñata
Filled with BULL, then they beat the SHIT out ya’...
What’s it all about? Money, power, freedom, classism or control
Live life worthy, lets save our person then focus on our souls
Each one, teach one, let’s take turns and reach one
Lift every voice, exercise your choice
Stay on your path, be poised
Fray from the title, I’m the MAN and focus on being a MAN
A lot of us are OLD BOYS, still pretend-an
The truth shall set you free unless you enjoyed being shackled and held in bondage
Consignment is a trap, never take it if it’s fronted
If they take it back then you’re still responsible
Now you’re deeper in the hole, getting out becomes monumental
I understand it different, I can see it way more clear
I’ve been afraid before but I’ve never lived in fear
What’s going to happen most certainly will
We have no choice in the matter, it’s free will
When it’s all said & done, there will be an END
At the present time,
IT’S THE WORLD WE LIVE IN....
