Dark skinned or mixed skinned, life has made us sorter thick skinned
Sorry!, I'm not sorry, but when all that trauma kicks in?
Humbly, nah, respectfully; selling drugs is something i had to do
If i played the cards i was dealt i wouldn't have an at-ti-tude
Greed was unstoppable, every hemisphere; every latitude
Give back the billions and Artifacts to those you didn't have to screw
You can begin...   with Benin, Mali, Sudan; Ca-me-roon,
Sierra Leone, Nigeria, Egypt, Kenya and U-ganda too
Fuck grat-ti-tude, repay your debt then i wouldn't be mad at you!
Scan the truth? - Barclays, Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan would act to sue
Hip Hop began for youths, became the street's CNN then banned at schools
Even with the damn abuse, can we take over the world? We can and do
Hiroshima and Nagasaki were destroyed but then Ja-pan improved
Black people are the Phoenix from the ashes - Man! That's true
Even if we have to explain it to Becky, Suzanne and Ruth
To have REAL equality is as likely as BLM and the Klan at truce


"Systemic Racism doesn't exist; that cabin missed us"
"water under the bridge", like the Government never sinned much
They say: "that boat sailed, we are now a mixed bunch"
But they never let that breeze slow, they let that wind rush!
Like how the Coptic Christians feel like 'cropped out Christians'
Stick to truth, the Bible was never in English you "opt-out Christians"
Colonial imperialists with toxic missions give illusions of optic visions
If you stuck with the truth we wouldn't have agnostic prisons
How do we top this system? - remove the anchor you docked
Your vessel was Racism, Politicians and Bankers are top
The tide in society needs shifting so this Cancer is dropped
We need everyone on board; that's when the anger will stop
All of the nautical spins won't cancel out Portugal's sins
To Europeans killing and pillaging are plausible wins
Divide and conquer is how Columbus was taught to begin
Unite and Ascend should be the way we ought to go in


Looting is a crime now?, what about the Rosetta Stone?
The time limit has ended for the oppressor's 'loan'
When you steal its OK, when black people do; you question tones
After April they bring May-back to drive the message home
Diamonds, Gold, Artifacts; they clean the whole wreckage zone
It's always tyranny and injustice, all the stress has shown
Don't want others to copy, hypocrites wont leave this mess alone
We only wanna hear from the Monarchs confessing throne
We are better because in hip hop, our weapons are lyrical
Poetic scrolls that touch the soul and the blessing's a miracle
This is real shit right here, just like how in heaven it's Biblical
Though racism is venom 'when life gives you lemons' it's critical
If we are destined for syllables, our presence is visible
In essence we're cynical because our depression is physical
Didn't play the cards we were dealt, and you're guessing it's difficult?
8 minutes and 46 seconds, like a fish out of water every second is pivotal




Jay-Z:
"I just tackle the subject, the flack of the public/
Nothing!I know real N***** just happen to love it"

I might choose to differ with you about how we should find a way forward but I cannot front on the words you use
You truly are a skilled writer
Respect brother man

Just a thought here, I would love to see you switch lanes and have some fun with this shit!
Do you ever do that man? Do you write outside of your platform... Life is short, good and happening right now brother
