Ticking Point
We all gathered here today because we made a decision
You’re angered and pissed off I can feel the rise in tension
Our problems have been ignored we talk they don’t listen
They swept our problems from their existence
We’re taken care of it how many times we gotta hear this sentence
Have troops and families parted
Tell the troops if you see an Iraqian kid aim at his head part it
Regardless
If they guard less
Despite the fact their lives already tarnished
No sympathy for their hardships
America the most dominant nation in the world the need to know where the bar is
Bullets tares through flesh
At kids just out the womb, fresh
Found out about the murder back page corner of the press
Missin white boy front page separated from the rest
Everyone gettin evicted
Innocent still convicted
Our government is malicious
Richest country in the world but 49million from mal-nutrition
Can’t afford bills let the phone ring
Funeral cost so high can’t bury your offspring
Gays are called names and assaulted
Still no help from politics
They receive hate mail not even looked as a figure
Victims of rape and triggas
That description puts them in the category of Niggas
Well today we’re done being silenced
We all want to complete the desired assignment
That’s why we all stand in alignment
All different sized men
Ready to commit the ultimate defiance
Fck if we get in confinement
They fuked us over now we got our mindset
Never has there been so much chaos since the nation was in a carriage
One day you got millions of proud Americans now across the land you got thousands of terrorist
Trust is broken you can’t repair it
So grab any weapon
One that influences you obsession
To cause disturbance
Contributing to this nation wide dispersion
No more listening time to rebuke
We will march to congress with strength that is brute
We will be heard
Or they be trampled by massive herds
Look like your decision to be Great Britain
Lead to a fatal collision
