My Tone

You wake up cold and try to break the mold this society puts you in grouped with those of the same skin getting notified as the next of kin that you have lost another be it a sister or mother a father or brother another one is lost and at what cost to fight another mans war? well then let me show you to the door cuz this is my land and id be damned to let my plan get ran out the room as we march to our inevitable doom we might as well lay in our own tomb Well i say hell naw heres the line i draw call me defiant for your just a tyrant who i will show no love as i rise above all those who said they were there for me it was a shame i couldn't see how fake they really be but no more will i be fooled or let my objections be over ruled my voice my be crude and my tone rude but thats just how i do.
