lyrics

Fallen from grace, it’s all about profits
They’re sellin criminal mindstate, don’t play it make me nauseous
The marketing monsters preventing music from prosperin
Lockin minds into thugs and hoes, dividin’ and conquerin
Them privatized prisons, bet your ass they got stocks in em-
So they choking out the hood, don’t let ‘em breathe any oxygen
Just flood em with toxins, trail of tears for the moccasins
Elitists claim divine, but demonstrate their incompetence
They left behind humanity, they’re classists and racists
Hiding behind their offices killing with penstrokes on papers
Encage us enrage us spread sickness contagious
Concentrate us in cities where air qual-ity is outrageous
Seek nature. Away from the coast that’ll be underwater just a little later-
Up on mountain, blessings countin, better outcome, you’ll be safer
No man an island, ya must confide in either Wilson or homies,
So don’t cast or pass away, be decent human you won’t be lonely

(chorus)
Lately it’s crazy, no safety,
Divide and conquered mainly, in Loneliness-
And only as long, we carry on
We will sustain the pain and sing that same song
They worship purses paper worthless
Need to reconnect back to where the Earth is in
And self value, don’t let yourself become shallow
You can wallow in it or battle the shadows-

Institution of bad taste and it ain't gettin better
They poppin Xanax hoppin on the mic and mumble each letter
They're turning off your brain, there's very little lately that stimulate it
I'm surprised to hear intelligence in music that's created
So jaded by genre, basically market dishonor
Gave it the most potential for messages mainstream MCs leave that squandered
Not fond of the yada yada the blahda need nada
All that placement of product you're talking Gucci and Prada
But that Product made in China You're jumping hoops for Vagina
gotcha spending Thousands more than its worth when ya wear designer
She calculating money based on brands and what you're wearing
That woman ain't wifey material, should be apparent
Superficial switch em with the music medicinal
Metaphysical syllable edible medical lyrics that's nutrional
Non equivocal, interpret minimal digest this like vitamin mineral
I've said my vows to hip hop, she know my love is unconditional
