Verse2:
And sometimes you can see the hurt plain as day
At an early age were told just to curse the pain away
So we never feel how much relate
And we're still tryna heal all our corruption & hate /
It's fucking me up clogging my arteries
Self diagnosis remedy's to spark a tree
Cause it's hard to be an honest immigrant
Fresh off the boat is when they conquer your innocence /
Doing all they can to demolish your militance
First breath is how long we've been taught to kill it since
... I got that Ma Dukes diligence
Baptized by the Masses before the pilgrimage /
The migration to the land of Native brothers
That were massacred but the chapters were never covered in class,
Just assholes showing how to pass go
As another victim in a system for their cash flow /


Chorus:
SoMuchOnTheBrain
It'sHardToMaintain

Verse3:
If everything ended abruptly today
Would I be content with the content of how I spent my days?
Endless gazing blazed staring at the starry chandeliers
Now we handle mic's when we used to handle spears! /
Ammunition and stanzas fill my bandoleer
APoetMustKnowHowToLeadAnAttack- when advantage appears!
My language pierces like the sun thru the clouds
Cause we're tryna shine a light where none is allowed! /
Education gives courage - like what do I got to lose?
Besides the oppression and backwards colonist views!
Feeling the plot thicken
The educational discussions blended the passion with wisdom! /
Switching my living to realize my dreams
Styling like Malcolm - Rise by Any Means!
Striding the many scenes these fuckers provide
Until the Victory comes, the struggle survives! /


Chorus:
