Overseer To Officer
A prisoner in your own skin
Being born was the only ture sin
Forcefed a bible
And treated like a second class citizen
A system instituted to ensure perpetual oppression
Equal rights have always been a selective fabrication
Neutralize any threat to establishment
Jim Crow may be dead but his Big Brother has never been more apparent
A warzone they created with corrupt pigs
Harassment and violence
Assassination of JFK, Black Panthers and Malcolm X
Four hundred year old lie
Forced to accept this plight
Crowded into poverty stricken conditions of living
A concrete jungle with no escaping
A race shut out of options
No jobs
No school
No chance of advancing
Imminent suicide
Malt liquor riot
CIA pushing the crack in
We're run out of martyrs
Amerika keeps gunning them down
A single parent
A trump charge prison
No escape from this dead town
This hell is home
