[ILLOGIC]
Conjure the conscious to contribute to our children's development
We live lost for the hell of it and burn bridges for the smell of it
Microwave America
Weapons of mass media in God We Trust
As long as fear and lust can be our mascots
Reward the haves and punish the have nots
Place princes and princesses on pedestals
Harvest silver spoons as cash crops
The rich get richer while the poor serves dinner
Classism is the new racism, the help still enters the back door
Its morbid, instead of pumping our breaks we floor it
Because we think we'll miss what society insists is soaring
When most are fly as icarus, wax wings and all, I'm sick of this
Kids choosing the same path expecting different results
Now the quicksand is getting deeper, the mountain's a little steeper
Plus you're weighed down by the sound of that pounds your speakers
Is it life or is it death? A helping hand or bruising fist?
Is it right or is it left? A melted candle with the useless wick?
The thunder rumbles the path taken
An undertow a fascist innuendo frames propaganda sacred
They wrap convenient blasphemy in rhapsody
It's fascinating how they cloak democracy eradicating heritage
If one record spin's a revolution
Then I'll spin records till restitution is embedded in our evolution
In this land of the thief and home of the slave
I have yet to see a land where we're free and our leaders are brave
Instead we look to land a Jesus piece and an early grave
But I won't have Jesus peace until the world is changed
Its all the same
Covert actions with overt consequences
Genocide works the fastest when compassion lacks incentive
We're the ones to blame, wearing our shame as a badge for our peers
It's a fact these rap cats set Blacks back about 50 Years
See they praise the court jester, in Microwave America
While the Kings are turned vagabonds searching for better weather
Conjure the conscious to contribute to our children's development
We live lost for the hell of it and burn bridges for the smell of it
