Way of the World

Paint a picture wit my poetry, young brothas killing each other over faces of white men, we were sold a false definition of success, the means to get this success, is controlled by the one that sold you a false definition of success, can you ever have enough money, it's an endless pit no bottom more money more problems, we build your jails, we build your schools teach us about the doctrines of devils and you make all the rules, who said what is good, who told you what is evil, normalized by psychology to hate knowledge and love jealousy, in this society it's easy to catch a felony, different races come into the hood, buy stores and leave wit all the money, this does not do our communities any good, economic castration black men don't do business around the world, but a black man is president political instigation, more time is given if you kill a white man, less time is given when you kill black man social dispensation, truth is what people can't stand, America was built of the backs of kidnapped Africans.
