Mindset

I guess it was the moon The gravitational pull came too soon I felt like the world was doomed Everyone in a chaotic state The mind state of the apes Not even then the animal within Could be tamed Vices of the charts Violence off the walls I stare at people in disbelief How could you be so naive How could you be so weak You do not stand up to anyone Generations before me stood up to no one Now we have to run into brick walls Before we see our country fall How could we be this way How were we raised When your mindset seems to come from dirt I guess cause that's were we came from , dirt Money is the anthem but do you even know our anthem? How could you be proud to be free When you don't even know how we were freed? But are we really free because I see us all on our knees Bowing in defeat Because the generations before us couldn't speak Fear is your poison Lies always feeds the need They cunfuse themselves with faith and hope From the poison they drink But how could you change the mindset of some one who has been drugged Makes me burn inside Because all I see around me is lack of communication Lack of love I rather be on the other side Of the astral plane Because anything seems better than this reality I claim I want to see change So you speak but do no change Because of the poison called fear Open your mind, let it be clear Ignorance is bliss The mind set of the Kings
