Lyrics: Thabang Byl
Music: Thabang Byl
How do like your pain?/
To be a product for a profit?
A syndication of messages/
A Streamline of gossip/
Attention is in Deficit
Hyena on a carcass/
Policies Penetrate Crevices /
a sale of stardust/
sold in a pack, slaughterhouse in a townhouse/
hungry children of the ghetto/
spare a dollar for church mouse/
Attraction is commoditized/
laughing at the pain/
feeling iced out with jewels
but the sickness is the same/
Generational deficiency/
burgeoning bourgeoisie/
blackout societyβs syncope/
on wall street/
not to be found from a blacktie degree/
having a brother see red, like the resin for dragon tree/
picture a pimp hopping over leaking sewers/
telling you to fix your city/
He's the cancer ripping through her/
Like tumour,
the origin of death swirled like Merlot/
Poisoning the blood flow /
For the nation to die slow/
Take it back to the design/
you see the hate is the wickedness/
your brother is crime/
is how paint him to the witnesses/
a cop shot a kid/
they ate the blood of the innocent/
a box and a pill/
high/ manipulate their ignorance/
The heart of the people/
made to wallow in a sinfulness/
that breeds self destruction/
bloodthirst that follows insolence/
The grave that we sleep in/
Gates that weβre keeping/
dead in the hatred of self/
They call in beefing/
It's gotta be the misunderstanding of what is power/
That makes us enemies of one another/
coming from gutter/
I'm in the middle of an outrage/
Every day is a fight for recognigtion in a void/
cuz you're invisible without fail/
burnt history books vanishing in ashes without trace/
im yet to hear a story worth writing that came without pain/
What is the hope? on the lower end of the totem pole/
no one is answering the question, how the bar became so low/
what you're seeing now is something on the fringe of me/
cured the nation on a day, when being alive is like a penalty/
hoping for the day to see what is written in destiny/
a set of words that came in a w(rap) was like a gift for me/
