We all have done something we're not proud of, its a shameful reminder that sneaks up on us in the midst of our happiness
Your eyes greet a thousand faces & holds many horrors that embeds into your soul.
Like the bruises on your body that have stories to tell
Or life draining from your wrists wishing you weren't living this hell
Everything may be perfect in your world but you never what's going on in your neighbor's house
We live under a flag that symbolizes unity
But out here on the concrete there's only separation
Freedom is an illusion in this nation
It's strange how something so beautiful, is possessed with such dark & negativity energy
Everybody's talking but nothing is being said
Everyone's saying they'll make it out but end up dead
We are at war with our thoughts, late at night when truth comes to suffocate you
We cry ourselves to sleep hoping to wake to mama's sweet pancakes
There's politicians control millions of lives with simple handshakes.
Everybody's running but never moving
We're puppets, attached to the string
We are ruled by Apple & big corporations
I see humans but no humanity
There's an unbalance between the rich & the poor
When people speak truth about society
They close their doors
Hiding behind their 4 walls
Hiding behind their iPhones
Calling friends & meeting up for pizza
Thinking everything is good, living in their placenta.
They are oblivious.
They ignore those news headlines
When you throw truth at them they think it's lies
Your demons come out to play & dance over your concious like a recital
Listen to the universe as it speaks
She's a prideful waitress, she counts her tips on the bus ride home
We forget how to stay humble
Our minds are focused on things that we don't have
While the other man is wishing for what we had
How could we head to sleep
When the other man didn't have anything to eat
Focused on futile problems
While the other man is worrying about living to see next week
Don't worry about government laws
We're enslaved by mental laws
It's an illusion to the eye
No matter how big your bank is, you're still gon' die
Free your mind
Is your faith with God or Reality?
Let's trespass into places we don't belong
