Today I looked out at our streets and they felt so obsolete.
What good are these cities for, when we can’t hug any more?
We’ve already lost so much...
Who will we be now that we’ve truly lost touch?
What good are these cars, when they just stay parked?
What’s the point of officers, when they are so lawless.
What good is the work, if it leaves you broke,
What good is the fight, if you are the only one woke?
Race wasn’t a label until we decided not to share.
Animals weren’t in cages, until we profited from their hair,
Facts weren’t disputed or politicized,
Now kids are the pawn, and we’re all desensitized
Look around, nothing will survive.
We can’t eat with an empty beehive.
It’s getting hotter and hotter, but the earth can take it
It’s whether or not we will make it.
Trying to find the root of all this evil,
Trying to give the boot to all these people.
Money makes everything feel cheap.
Power makes you feel weak,
The more I learn the more I lose...
Respect, patience, the right to choose..
We blame Eve for all this spite.
And worship God as a man who is white.
Can’t give credit, where credit is due,
With no womb, how would there be you?
