In the news every night hear em talking about the anthems, knees and flags
Rappers talking about Jordans on their feet with the bags
We talking about blacks, cop violence and the poor
They talking about the Dow Jones, S&P score
We talking proletariat, workers and their rights
We talking about Ferguson after they murdered Mike

They talking Tekashi, whoever else got paperwork
We talking about dead end jobs that barely pay to work
We talking about career politicians who keep running
Soon as you hold em accountable they keep running
We talking about opiates, Percocets, Fentalyn
We talking about systematic oppression that's preventing you
From reaching your potential and beyond the street tenements
Human's over numbers you can keep all your percentages
Protect our women and more facts less flash
cnd make sure that the banker got my dough when the check cash

Be watchful of the smoke screen, veils on their eyes
That's preventing you to see that devil in disguise

Cause my brain wasn't wired just to obey systems
Dave Chappell, George Carlin while I'm riding in Harlem
Feel the soul of Marcus Garvey, Pan-cfrican talking

cnd Candace Owens with her weaponized vocabulary used
I don't do the news but if I do it's on the Tube
Tube got some garbage too so I gotta pick and choose
I don't clex Jones or any of those dudes
You can catch me in the produce section organic food
If you want an honest answer, I rather say the truth
I don't like being an asshole though it's not really my mood
It's people over corporate, people over wars
People over oil rock with people on tour
It's facts over fiction and facts over your narrative
It's defund the prisons and police that's imperative
I can listen to drill, but I ain't with the beefing
Rather celebrate the fact ghetto youth still breathing
