Observations 5 Detached From Delusion

Why do people still act like they don't 
know
There are no more places for 
corruption to go
It's everywhere in this world
It's hard to escape
Lock down the government citizens 
getting raped
Children getting neglected because 
families not respected
The resilient spirit of our past is not 
even protected

Hip-Hop ain't stop **** & civil rights 
took us down
A dead end street where it's hard to 
turn around
So many straight faces 
No smile
No frown
Walking the streets Big Brother 
makes  a compound
Simultaneous arrests on every side 
of town
Everybody stand-up
Everyone hold me down
Jokers & juveniles can't turn us 
around
All respect to the righteous
As this King wears his crown
