Starting with yours first.

See it's the worst when you feel cursed on this scorched earth.
Struggling to stand firm on a shaky perch that's been rigged to falter from the first day of birth.
660Please respect copyright.PENANA9nmXKhmnEU
I know you're thinking, "If I'm destined to suffer the sins of my father, then why even bother?
How could I open the eyes of my sons and daughters
If it's meant for them to swim in the same dirty waters?"

Don't stand for injustice of any kind
Don't even attempt to try it.

A broken toy on Christmas.

You'll find yourself asking for an acknowledgement of your innocence,
BEFORE you're presumed guilty!

See, this justice system ain't blind,
It has 20/20 vision
Especially when it comes to seeing young black, red, and brown men put in prison.
660Please respect copyright.PENANATekpxp3QTz
Probationary supervision, parole, the bracelet,
We're put in this system swiftly.

The funny thing is, in the streets, you might find yourself struggling to secure employment day after day.
But as soon as your ass gets locked up, you'll be given a job right away!

But don't ever embrace playing victim
No matter how much the devil tempts you
These jokers will accuse you of playing the race card
Knowing the whole deck is stacked against you!

As a matter of fact, let's do the MATH before you wind up in prison.

Then your family will suffer LONG DIVISION!

It's gonna be frustrating and hard to understand, so at times you're going to find yourself over sitting in your sorrow
It's gonna be hard to look for a brighter day,
When you're never promised tomorrow.

Trying to find a shortcut to wealth.
660Please respect copyright.PENANA2v1JoE5A54
Lack of initiative and self discipline,
will always be bad for your health.
660Please respect copyright.PENANApJe1d7uuSC
But in this battle for your body and soul,
You need to be willing to go on a warpath.
660Please respect copyright.PENANA1FFabULoFA
Hopefully, God showers your soul with mercy,

Because this shit could end in a bloodbath.
