Listen to my words
the kids they going crazy
Getting locked up
All they can clutch,
Miranda rights
at the same time
alright
Miranda writes
Our thoughts put to paper
Play it out on the stage
Never know the difference
Its a turn of the page

Some use their bullets
some wield a knife
Others preach the dollar
Is How they take our lives
Grab you by the collar
And break you down with lies
Don't matter what your searching
Only what you find
This is our misfortune
Blinded by distortion
Someday we might wake up
As we struggle to align

You cannot be free
all that blood in your eyes
Round and round in circles
A place I call my home
Just a lonely misfit
With the strength of a stone
Wonder round these valleys
While you sit upon your throne
Sometimes it's hard to admit
The scale of this dismay
Indeed we are alone

Some use their writing
The bullet is a pen
I killed oppression
Does that mean
That I'm insane
I killed oppression
What's left to be?
waiting in vain
I killed oppression
a fury made of fire
Brought down all the people
We were never equal
I killed oppression
Standing on the sun
The flames
You can keep em
They killed oppression
Shot it right between the eyes
Third, you may see
Lead you to your destiny
They killed oppression
Look at the world
Crumble let it be
No one really cares
About the people
No one really cares
About the people
They killed oppression
The wars about a dollar
Corporate oversight
Disguise pain with laughter
Gotta feed the horde
Seduction is their nature
They killed oppression
Read between the lines
They. Have drawn for you, as
We **** oppression

Unknown feet
Find their way
An alley street
strolling in place
things don't change at all
The hunger and cold
break them down
no more
Another street gets sold
Another human gets old
Round in circles
The end cant be near
When the people only hold to fear
Of what will be
And what will come

Why is it
you want to dance
around that same tree
Why can't you
Dive in that rabbit hole
The mystery
you cannot see
A Dream only some perceive
These words put to rhymes
Some call
a division of time
Life is a just a thing
The people believe
Black and white wings
Floating in the sky

There's nothing holding me back
From what I can escape
So hold me close
as we attempt to break
Free of all of that hate
And all of that pain
There's nothing left
holding you back
It's time to escape
Write down a list of your fears
Let it go with the flame

It can't be so simple
When you wander
down the middle
The road
I can't stand em
A character
Generic
He's an embarrassment
The one guy who did it better
Remember
Why go right
When the left gives more
The people
Shouldn't get a handout
Make me work for my fame
The shame
Treat it like a game
The life
Knight takes the Rook
****,
The Rook just claimed Brooklyn!
Shout out to Lin
Manuel
All go witness Hamilton

There's nothing holding me back
From what I can escape
So hold me close
as we attempt to break
Free of all of that hate
And all of that pain
There's nothing left holding you back
It's time to escape
Write down a list of your fears
Let it go with the flame

Look at all I hold dear
Dancing in the dark
It’s nonstopping
Here what I say
You can’t let the illusion
Practicality
Guide your way
Round the greens
Round the earth
You can’t let the illusion
Democracy
Show you the truth
It may be there
Sometimes it’s not
But it’s all most got
Go and lose your mind
It could hurt a little

You should know
It's ok if the smallest
The smallest of the things
Go ahead and make you cry
It's alright to have that tear in your eye
It's alright to never hold back
Lay your emotions down
Man I hope you Never lye flat
Against this world
Of people who tell you how to represent
All the ideals that they hold dear
But what about you
What about your young fear
Of the earth and the dreams
How do you tell humanity
About what you stand for
What you climb the mountains
Just to find your sanity

As I gaze up
The confetti
It falls to the ground
And then a cannon sound
Wake up!
It was just a dream
Standing on a stage
As I gaze upon those That I see
I blaze my sage and
The rhymes bring them peace
**** the rage
I’m gonna climb this mountain
As I gaze upon the sea
My mind it maintains delusions
When the media preaches illusions
Collusion?
Maybe so, status quo
**** it
while my confetti is to heavy

My heart it races
with the thought of it alone
i sit and listen
to the rhythm
layed upon that radio
it makes you duck
and whats it worth
hiding in your zone
live free is what they claim
chained right close to their phone
let it go
or you will be just another
