Hello child, beautiful child
Don’t be scared to cry just stay true to that smile
They’ll kiss you and they’ll dress you, then you’re through to the wild
Crawl. Walk. Run, fast. You’ll run for a while

Run 'till you meet your wits and you’ll gain a couple witnesses
They’ll shoot you, they won’t miss you. It’s actually ridiculous
They’ll take your wallet for a gun and then ask you who did this
Money runs the world child, welcome to the business

Get your tie on, they’ll get it tight on
The noose is fitting right on
They fed you every bait and all you had to do was bite on
Dear child, stay in the wrong. You’re better off an icon

I do not identify myself as a black american
I do not identify myself as an activist
I do not identify myself
As anything other than what I am
Do not arbitrate my existence
It will only magnify your bigotry
Do not lecture me
It will not ratify your ministry
Do not objectify my identity
Do not marginalize my sincerity
I know your criticism
It will not dwindle me
I am defiantly deaf to it
It will not compute
Trust me
It will only intensify
What I occupy
Do not subject me to anomaly
Do not try and direct me
I will not comply
Do not concern yourself
with my essentiality
I am not lost
Do not concern yourself
With what defines me
Just ask
If I am willing and able.
I've seen my life form a birds eye view
So small, so mundane , so insignificant.
I've viewed others lives ,moves by cues,
Hollow emotions through the daily regiment.
These edifices hearding us on the road of repetition and mediocrity
We are a species with amnesia,
What truly has changed since the era of Socrates?
We have only learned how to live in decadence and leisure.
We have weapons of mass destruction
Falsely reasoned as mass protection
We have fast foods but still people go hungry.
We repeat our mistakes again and again what is that? Insanity.
A kin to 1+1=2
If we do not change we are doomed.
When those in power forever pass the buck
And teach us how to
but are angry when we do
What the ****
Procrastinating whilst in need of revolution
Making problems that have nearly no solutions
Outdated tuition
Weak constitutions
The line between order and chaos is hazy
What will you do
"We leave the rest to you.."

Be honest you are just lazy
There has been a lot of controversy here recently with the universities and fees. seeing how we as the youth banded together and how the generation before us has acted during all this gave me inspiration and this is the result.

I'm shaving my hair,
undercut? Well, I don't care.
I'm on rebel stage.

All of their parents are afraid
Not wanting their children to be like me
I know, I’m a bad influence, I’m mean
But at least my fun doesn’t seem to fade

our confidence was lowered
those words that cut through
we can truly say that they have ruled
laughing and mocking with the crew
we can see that they are no good
they'll **** all of us, me after you

One day I'll have my freedom i'll never look back.
