Awake!!!

Awake!!!
Drugs and guns
Proliferating through the streets
Brothers destroying one another
A conspiracy!
The plan’s almost complete
Peruvian flake exported
Imported so the race can be distorted
Judicially and politically extorted

Blindfolded
Not meant to see
Forced into the ghettos
Nestled into poverty
Subsidized housing
Where little brothers and sisters are playing,
Broken glass and needles everywhere
An attempt at social delousing

Welfare reform act,
But where’s the reform at?
Sisters trained to patiently wait
every month to get paid
Barely enough money
so who’s getting played?

Drugs dealt and legs spread
To rise above the rest
Gangsters playing at night
As the race dwindles in the process
