Stuck

2 stories with one meaning

 

The news shows kids with guns getting famous

While the good go unnoticed so you got to blame us

Politicians too righteous for their minds to meet

While 2 million are livin out cold on the street

Ive always had a roof so my perspective is off

But so are the people who are calling all the shots

1 percent owning over half the power and money

controlling 7 billion people, man this s**t is not funny

they fought for success Im not baggin on them

 it jus makes me wonder about the system were in

We got red buttons that can blow up the planet

leaders trying to make their own people panic

but we elected these people so isn’t it frantic

that we created this chaos but never had planned it

 

A place where green paper means more than a life

we got all the cures but the poor get denied

They label some as important and others as nothing

And we all play a part and its f*****g disgusting

We got enough food for the world

But people still starving

Distracted by fake fights

I swear were all sparring

 

 

Were caught up in kanye, kim, and the mirror,

Golden state, lebron, westbrook and the beard, (all bball players)

Obama, trump and whose to come next

Friends, family and even our ex

Were glued to the phone at every  ring

And S**t im guilty of all of these things

 

Ive always wondered what wed accomplish

If the walls weve built all got demolished

We all start trying to better this place

That we call home and weve come to disgrace

With pollution, hatred, crime, and disease

The little things matter, even them bees

cuz they pollinate plants which clean up bad air

but well smoke anything now so who even cares

 

Humanity is so complicated these days

losing our roots, but were stuck in our ways

with every morningin we can better the day

but the more we grow, we push others away

Were lied to when they say that you get what u give

Try selling that to any African kid

Who has to walk 5 miles barefoot to get water

When he returns to his village where his people got slaughtered

So hes forced into any army made up of children

Serving some warloard that he doesn’t believe in

When he was young each shot sent a chill

But now hes grown older and numb to the feel

So He pulls the trigger without even pausing

Not knowing the pain that his actions are causing

Is he just showing his will to live

Cause I don’t think he gets what he gives

I wanna believe that the structure has failed him

But wait in America the structure would jail him

If he were to give a cop a wrong look

Or maybe bad luck cause they assume hes a crook

Hold ur stats its a generalality,

not every officer causes a fatality

not every minority is assumed to be a criminal

but its still present today this s**t is not minimal

 

Humanity is so complicated these days

Lost all our morals, and were stuck in our ways

This is very lyrical and genuinely could be turned into a video and song. A few tweeks ...an do they still say...this wack? Im ole school! ;p
