Life I'Ve Been Through

Fire in the streets mop of police, Marshal law at its prime for generation, Standing up in their time, police forcing pace but it's bloodshed feast wondering why generation X Y taking back their prime. Subjugating separating our kind by the skin we wear, Yes you hate me I see it in your eyes, I see the fire in you boiling up inside, You have rage towards are race you embrace the hatred your family haven seen, Steer this culture back to the sixties to you have control again in 2016, War on war for pleasure you endorse, Seeing death on the news more then seeing an country being played, Maybe one day they'll see the truth they were blind to when they open wide.
