Read An Opinion On:
Submitted by: Tommy Lockhart
Im looking everywhere for anything I cant find
verbally engage yo ears stimulate yo mind
I live in the richest place in the world
at war gainst itselfover wealth
its greed instead of feed
less fortunate barely have the skills to read
they miseducate with diabolical efficiency
take money from schools to build penitentiaries
no funds for educationoverseas perpetrating
atrocities against the indigenous
I guess its just business as it has always been
my question is…are we listening? to history?
as it consistently repeats ill phrases…
of pasts mistakes we stay making
we go and stick our nose where it dont belong
today its Iraqbefore was Vietnam
I know yall like yo tommy dont say that shit
u know the government dont play that shit
but i’m an emcee supposedly free
to ACT PATRIOT means to never disagree.!?
read between lines in rhymes
open eyes to lies
heed the word to the wise
never compromise
u better learn yo rights
whats been done in the dark bout to come to light
if I was u Id live by faith and not sight
everything u see… is nothing more than imagery
constant competition to replenish energy
I achieve synergy lyricallyprophetic verbally
with metaphors and hyperbolesupreme humility
and millions of people that’s feelin me
no killin me before my time
was born to reform the earth through verse and rhyme
entertain to educate and then empower
mobilize the people to fight for freedom thats ours
whatever that isput good things in our kids
change the way we livefocus on the positive…
if that aint too much to ask
thats like getting a paycheck thats too much to cash
sam aint my uncle…peep how he do
he get paid off our work before we do
we cant PROgress…
because of CONgress
we all Bass Ackwards more end up with less
can u read the wall all smeared with bloody secrets
heat seekin weapons of mass destruction we busting
why we so gullible? why we so trusting?
there’s grand delusions of mass distractions
theres too many questions and nobodys asking.
cause they already know”FA SHOW” but dont show…
or care about “DA HOOD”where we say “ITS ALL GOOD”
just another played out figure of speech that dont make CENTS
which is much more than what the unemployed make
so they DEBATEon HILLS in CAPITAL DISTRICTS of GREAT LANDS…
about fake plans to take another mans land to make grands
or I should say mills when i really mean bills…
secret handshakes and illicit dealsin rooms filled…
with the dense clouds from the finest imported illegal Cubansmisappropriations fiscally abusive
then go on Larry King and try to confuse it
I find it amusing…
that it even matters at all
for what rises to the top is destined to fall
u could refer to that as universal law
maybe u may have heard of it before I digress
and manifest verbal words prophetic
digital information databases inbedded
underneath skin in chips called micro
they start by offering it to your best friend fido
u know like I knowwhere u go with the flow
mad heat therethey gnash teeth there
but dont be scaredthe whole thing already won
underneath all the clouds there still is the sun
