As I'm speaking through this receiver...
I wanna shatter the glass...
And offer my open arms...
To a man with a shattered past...
He's broken and battered... Ask...
Why he's living his life so fast....
He'll tell you that he was raised....
In the gutter like he was trash....
His life... A tragic movie...
Without a supporting cast...
Exhausted... Tired of running...
He's always coming in last...
His triumphs don't match his tragedies...
Seems like he's automatically...
Disregarded by friends...
And written off by his family...
Maybe it was the drugs...
That amplified his insanity...
No mercy from the judge..
Strike 3 for assault and battery...
His babymomma's gone...
She left him all by himself...
Grew tired of waiting for him...
Got married to someone else...
Now his only consolation...
Is counting the days and weeks...
Penitentiary tatts...
And memories of the streets...
His commissary is low...
It's turned him into a thief...
He's jacking niggas for food...
But fuck it he's gotta eat...
He's a victim of a system...
That bred him to be a beast...
Facing his inner demons...
Is killing his inner peace...
His patience is growing weak...
From facing his daily beefs...
Plus he thinks his celly's plotting...
To murder him in his sleep...
He's weary and losing focus...
Driven by raw emotions...
Waiting on his parole...
At the moment it seem hopeless...
Crying out for help...
Hoping someone in heaven hears...
He's got 3 children on the outs...
He ain't seen in eleven years...
His son's a teenager...
His baby's in junior high...
His oldest is seventeen...
When he saw her last she was five....
All he has is his pride...
Cause his faith has withered and died...
He's tossing calendars daily...
His life is passing him by...
There's really no need for a breakdown or analysis here. The message is plain as day. There is a crime which is far more brutal than murder of the body. Therefore I am hereby charging the justice system with the unjust killing of millions Black Souls annually....
Free my brothers, cousins, friends, and fellow ghetto soldiers... Regardless to your charges I love each and every one of you with all my heart and soul... "A single act of injustice anywhere... Threatens justice EVERYWHERE" ~Martin Luther King Jr.~
AND THAT'S JUST THE WAY I SEE IT.......
