Observations

It's like my life's on probation Trapped in ah broken nation Ghetto's of damnation Got home feeling like incarceration Dreams of liberation Leave every black man, woman, and child mind full of contemplation Opposing my opposition with a tattooed disposition It's not to many good times in the position I may have your attention Listen Listen Listen Confession booths are the partition That hide the evil in religion Lost souls can't see the doom in man's division Asking for restitution Stop Spark a revolution That's the solution T.B.T
