BackWordz - Utopias Don't Exist

The life you’re living just might be different/
Despite what you might be thinking, your life decisions/
Could fight, but the night just thickens and knifes your vision/
I might be the light you’re missing. My mic, You Listen/

First off: need to act, man/
Take everything that you learned from this Liberal Media and toss it in the trash can/
That garbage is probably why you try to make everybody feel sorry for the parties involved and it’s whack man/
Most politicians have one mission: Say or do whatever it takes to keep your attention/
I guess you think the truth is so boring. They get away with telling lies and you’re dumb enough to vote for em’/
Left, right, republicans, or democrats. Red or blue, different sides on the same crap/
Black, white, gay, straight, need to pipe down/
Nobody’s obligated to accept your lifestyle/

Stop thinking that the government should force it

Hook:
They Say that you should listen twice as much as you talk/
You have two eyes so you should watch where you walk/
‘cause everything ain’t what it seems. Sometimes it’s far from truth/
You can mislead them but I see right through you/

It’s time to wake up x2

Another hashtag, now blacks mad/
‘Cause the cops shot another brother that fast, and yea, that’s sad/
Here come the marches on Washington. Fueled with fire like arsonist, it’s hard to get, and I’m just sick, I’m tired of it/
Get up in arms when a cop do it, but don’t even bat an eye when one of US shooting and it’s foolishness/
What you’re doing is proving that, not even our own kind truly value a life that’s black/

How can we expect, others to show black folks respect/
When we act blind to all of this. Accountability is what we lack/
Meanwhile the politician keep benefitting/
Taking sides, while they just play the victim/
Well I’m black, so I’ll tell you like this.. /
Stop fronting like you’re pissed when you’re inconsistent

I criticize y’all hoping that you rise, dog/


Slander and lies, rationalize, the fact they try to dismantle guys with animal eyes/
Rats, snakes, on the prowl over emphasis on differences..
The difference is, to co-exist is the heart of existence/
Ain’t nothing wrong with being on different sides of the same subject. Think before you criticize/
Minimize conflict by understanding that you ain’t gone understand all of what is different from you following/
