lyrics

Verse 1: I keep it real when I spit these verses/ I remember seeing these mothers cry when their child died and got put in them hearses/ violence within the community was on the rise/ now everybody in the area had anger inside/ living in places where reality strikes before your eyes some seen death/ and try they hardest to forget/ them nightmares bring it back all the pain that they suffered from/ some died as a teen never seen 21/ murder was all i would see on the news/ kids blasting tools, cops arresting people right before school/ my homie just went in he doing his bid/ got a letter that said "if I die in here give this to my kid"/ no problem brother anything that you need/ he say while he locked all he think about is his seed/ don't know when he'll be freed looks out the window of his cell/ wonders what the world gon be like after years spent in this hell/

hook:2x Alot of ugly truth we gotta embrace/ as we get older it gets colder no more time to waste/ society is set for all of us to fail and they plan to erase/ the population its a trap we could never escape/

Verse 2: Pick up the pin these rhymes filling up the pages/ thinking how they really want us in them cages/ first they mentally enslave us look around things starting to change fast/ I survived like that 7 year old in that plane crash/ investigations, human rights violations/ they hiding things from us to control the population/ more devastation like the Nigeria massacre/ media manipulation always that's how they capture ya/ and more people incarcerated so they building up more prisons/ Im still having these visions/ and while these cops killing us in cold blood/ they plant something on us then in the reports you see it says how we sold drugs/ this is crazy I can no longer take this/ to many cases of cops who shot unarmed black faces/ listen up always remember/ the government will kill their own kind just to push their own agenda/

hook:2x Alot of ugly truth we gotta embrace/ as we get older it gets colder no more time to waste/ society is set for all of us to fail and they plan to erase/ the population its a trap we could never escape/
