Thought Process
By Ezar
This thought process stops the mentality of the mindset in the projects
Poor is a state of mind not a state of pocket
They call it ghetto but its actually the slave way
Through history this it was taught in the slave trade
Wealth was kept a mistery by being afraid
They gave us welfare help instead of teaching us how to help ourself
Cause they really need us
Programing the way the school teaches us
Giving us toys with cool features
Addicted to the ways so we stay a slave for fancy cars and cool sneakers
But that's not enough they enslave us to drugs alcohol and stuff
Making it legal showing it being used by famous people
They got us trying to live lives of other people
Mind controlling the way we see each other as evil
While they look at us as sheeple
Making profits from imprisonment so they hope you go to prison again
They say only 5 percent get out and truly win
The rest go into a cycle again and again
It's not about black or white its about rich or poor
It's about keeping you in the state of mind not wanting more
Telling you to accept what they pay for
Keeping you sick and poor
EBT card on the way to the store
Operation Medicaid won't pay for
Medication patient feen for
Free housing full off lunatics and heroin bricks
Instead of getting ahead your basic needs are an accomplishment
Open your eyes get on deck cause
This thought process stops the mentality of the mindset in the projects Peace
