Elitists Part 7

"God give you the strength to finish this your way"?
I don't think you are first on his list, a special chair on judgment day?
better meditate, get it straight, rinse and repeat, people are people
so maybe when you're not "winning" people say, not sarcastically
that's okay, he's allright, 
he's a good man with a magnetic personalitay livin right
or you can be an evil serving self proclaimed savior of gangland racket 
too kool this mouth of the north and the south, with the devils ball sack in it
unpalatable to me if true colors were flavors, 
id have to spew it from my mouth, like a bad flavr flav of JayZ or PeeDiddy or the other tools lyricals.
Think the world needs something refreshing, 
no color on the brain, but still Golden, a golden giving heart molded upon brotherhoods fleece meshing. Not seeing scapegoats and color and retaliation. 
You want to be a superstar, just dive right on in, 
get on the ball, get in the game
But me more DeMarcus"ware" of your surroundings, Lest your words can block a fortress, a Minecraft of bombs. Are you on the front lines or sounbyte drive-by ing in your Catablack Escapade and control your own
climate, which is frigid to some.
Verily brothers I say to you, one might say
that all colors bleed into one, 
colorless, souls, before God, judgment on, day
one

Really enjoying the references here, Jude, good job on touching on so many themes. I agree on the "gangland racket" point, I do have a soft spot for "guitar racket" I guess though!
