The Nations Poor - Tailgating

The Nations Poor - Tailgating 

It's a hard pill to swallow
When the laws you follow
Are enforced on land your ancestors are wrongfully conquered on
And the very principles this country's founded on 
Can’t be counted on
In times of crisis and confusion.
What an illusion they've pulled off on us
Misused and lost our trust
Too many times but
Ain’t too many rhymes been written about this
So I'm pissed
Cuz for some odd reason
We think it's best the less that is said
But for God's sake people they left us for dead,
Dying.

And there is no denying
Those fathers crying 
With their family's sidewalk written
What was so cleverly hidden 
Is now in plain vision
For all to see
We want you all to see how this country does it's poor and down trotted 
This is an instance that must not be forgotten
It’s for keeps
Long after the media sleeps
Political name calling and lying

Send them photography to desensitize 
The eyes so we won't cry 
No more when we see people dying,
In despair.
We don't care
We just change the station
We live in a nation
Where the poor have nothing but time to spend
So we left waiting…………… Tailgating 

Home no more
Show no more love
Than them countries them white boys take over
This is the real rape over
And this ain't young boy frustrated emotion
This is grown man rationale
Hard to admit my national 
Don’t give a fuck about its own
But the evidence is clear we can stack it up
K- shaka made a statement
heich here to back it up
It's true
We live in a beautiful world where
Ugly souls push the buttons
The gluttons of society
Top priority
Make sure the rich folk stay rich folk

This ain't a new issue
The nations poor been the tissue
That the city's wipes its’ ass with
relief and disaster, corporate kick backs
like how Halliburton is contracted to restore back the order
They use black bodies to hold back the water…..tailgaiting
Such disorder in the country that makes so much money
I'm telling you learn so much money 
When you just open up a book and look inside
That’s where they hide the evidence
These fucked up politicians
And their constituents
Pitch you against your own mind here
Fuck up your mind here yeah
They got opportunities and jobs for the poor
It’s called 'prison life' and 'warfare' 
that's ur share of the national pie
But you gotta lie, steal and cheat to get it,
Step on somebody's feet to get it 
Knock toes that been swollen for so long
They do us so wrong 
But we just stand there and take it
Nature rips the mask off so they can't take it
We stand here butt naked
This is your nation's poor
But you still stand here and ask us for our kids for war,

And for our right to vote
What the fuck can you possibly say to them kids
When they learn that their parents died
Casualties of the war in poverty?
