Emerging
i've noticed everytime i go out of state
today, there is no escaping a toll
why are we so casually docile
when it comes to our freedom being stole
we systematically give some stranger
our money just to ride on the road
when did that happen
i suppose long before we lost
actual lyrics in commercial rappin'
we use to be such advance beings
cracking puzzles and breaking the DaVinci code
writing hieroglyphs and manuscripts
like the Dead Sea scrolls
presently under this suffocating ceiling of control
what happened to forming an alliance
coming together like our forefathers
exchanging and sharing thoughts of high science
exemplifying magnificence and reliance
politicking under the sun and moon
grasping why the moth emerges out of the cocoon
