[00:20.38] First off say peace to Pine Ridge
[00:22.26] Shame at all the damage the white man wine did
[00:24.26] Ghost dance, Trail of Tears, 5 million beers a year
[00:26.94] And all that other crime did
[00:28.63]
[00:29.13] More peace to the teachers of blind kids
[00:31.13] To rebels in small cells keeping their mind big
[00:33.81] Say everything's hostile
[00:34.51] Suicide bombers and prosperity gospels, emaciated models
[00:38.50] With niggas and blood pouring out their nostrils, they got to
[00:41.94] Just to stay awake on the catwalk of life where everybody watch you
[00:45.69] Straight hair, high heels and a handbag
[00:48.13] Crucifixes, racism and a land grab
[00:50.56] Katrina, FEMA trailers, human body sandbags
[00:52.31] A peace sign and a pants sag
[00:55.26] A money toss cause a 9 stripper mad dash
[00:57.57] A friend request following a hash tag
[00:59.88] Now everybody want it like the last laugh
[01:02.38] A Michael Jackson jacket or a daft mask
[01:04.50] Purple Jordans or the mixed girl in your math class
[01:06.88] Stable is when the Ba'ath had Baghdad
[01:08.50] But corporate jets really had to have that gas bad
[01:11.32] War and they hope they all fall from the ratatat
[01:13.88] Cause that's just more dinosaur for the Cadillac
[01:15.69]
[01:16.31] Live from the other side what you see
[01:18.12] A bunch of nonsense on my TV
[01:20.37] Heaven on Earth is what I need
[01:22.68] But I feel I'm in hell every time I breathe
[01:25.12] Reporting live from the other side what you hear
[01:27.44] A bunch of nonsense all in my ear
[01:29.31]
[01:29.82] Rich man, poor man, we all gotta pay
[01:32.19] Cause freedom ain't free, especially 'round my way
[01:34.51]
[01:35.10] And we marvel at the state of Ottoman
[01:37.53] Then turn around and treat Ghana like a garbage can
[01:39.73] America's a big mother****ing garbageman
[01:41.97] If you ain't know, you're part and parcel of the problem
[01:44.48] You say no you ain't, and I say yes you is
[01:46.54] Soon as you find out what planned obsolescence is
[01:48.91] You say no they didn't, and I say yes they did
[01:51.35] The definition of unnecessary-ness
[01:53.29] Manifested
[01:56.04] Say that we should protest just to get arrested
[01:58.10] That goes against all my hustling ethics
[01:59.79]
[02:00.29] A bunch of jail niggas say its highly ineffective
[02:02.85] Depart from Martin, connect on Malcolm X tip
[02:05.16] Insert Baldwin to similar the separate
[02:07.48] To me, the truth is more fulfilling than a meth hit
[02:09.87] Or finding really fast internet to have some sex with
[02:12.49] It's all one song short of a set list
[02:14.37] Couple croissants shy of a continental breakfast
[02:16.74] Or blowing out your birthday candles just to make a death wish
[02:19.19] So absurd word to Chief Bone Necklace
[02:20.88] Down at the Lakota Sioux Casino
[02:23.76] A whole culture boiled down to giving you paquino
[02:26.00] I go as left as a heart in the chest
[02:28.26] Cause the Horn of Africa is now starving to death
[02:31.00] Live from the other side what you see
[02:32.94] A bunch of nonsense on my TV
[02:35.26] Heaven on Earth is what I need
[02:37.63] But I feel I'm in hell every time I breathe
[02:40.07] Reporting live from the other side what you hear
[02:42.38] A bunch of nonsense all in my ear
[02:44.63] Rich man, poor man, we all gotta pay
[02:47.01] Cause freedom ain't free, especially 'round my way
[02:49.52] An all white Los Angeles, the dream of Mr. Chandler
[02:51.84] Hope and pray they take Columbus day up off the calendar
[02:54.27] South Central an example of God's gifts
[02:56.46] So shout to all the mothers raising babies in spa 6
[02:58.96] The projects of Oakland city, Detroit ghost towns
[03:01.15] Monopolies on poverty where D-boy coke bound
[03:03.40] It's parts of Manilla like the video for Thriller
[03:05.77] But the US Embassy is reminiscent of a villa
[03:08.34] If poverty is chocolate and privilege vanilla
[03:09.84] Then what's the flavor of the Sunday preacher's pedophilia
[03:12.09]
[03:12.93] Cash rules everything around these niggas
[03:15.06] As classrooms everywhere around me wither
[03:17.49] Hither you can be Mr. Burns or Mr. Smithers
[03:19.93] The tyrant or the slave but nowhere in the middle
[03:22.43] Of the extremes of America's dream
[03:24.43] Freud fighting Neo, Freddy Krueger refereeing, naaa,
[03:27.18] Live from the other side what you see
[03:29.12] A bunch of nonsense on my TV
[03:30.87]
[03:31.43] Heaven on Earth is what I need
[03:33.40]
[03:33.90] But I feel I'm in hell every time I breathe
[03:36.21] Reporting live from the other side what you hear
[03:38.52] A bunch of nonsense all in my ear
[03:40.84] Rich man, poor man, we all gotta pay
[03:43.21] Cause freedom ain't free, especially 'round my way
[03:45.77]

[00:57.57] 话题标签后的好友请求
[00:59.88] 现在人人渴求最后赢家的滋味
[01:02.38] 迈克尔·杰克逊夹克或蠢朋克面具
[01:04.50] 紫色AJ鞋 数学课上的混血女孩
[01:06.88] 复兴党掌控时的巴格达才算稳定

[01:11.32] 枪声中他们盼着恐龙灭绝
[01:13.88] 好给凯迪拉克腾出更多燃料
[01:15.69]
[01:16.31] 来自另一侧的实况转播
[01:18.12] 电视里充斥着荒唐

[01:29.82] 富人穷人皆要付出代价
[01:32.19] 自由从非免费 尤其在我街区
[01:34.51]
[01:35.10] 我们惊叹奥斯曼的衰亡
[01:37.53] 转身却把加纳当垃圾场
[01:39.73] 美利坚就是个巨型垃圾工
[01:41.97] 若你不知情 便是同谋
[01:44.48] 你否认 我坚持
[01:46.54] 等你明白计划性报废的真意
[01:48.91] 你说不可能 我说已发生
[01:51.35] 这就是多余二字的具象化
[01:53.29] 明摆着
[01:56.04] 他们说抗议就该被捕
[01:58.10] 这违背我的生存法则
[01:59.79]
[02:00.29] 狱中人说这毫无意义
[02:02.85] 背离马丁 效仿马尔科姆X
[02:05.16] 引入鲍德温思想作分隔符
[02:07.48] 于我 真相比冰毒更致幻
[02:09.87] 比高速网络色情更刺激
[02:12.49] 就像歌单缺了压轴曲
[02:14.37] 欧陆早餐少了几枚牛角包
[02:16.74] 或吹灭生日蜡烛时许下死愿
[02:19.19] 荒谬至极 以骨链酋长之名
[02:20.88] 拉科塔苏族赌场里
[02:23.76] 整个文化被蒸馏成赌局
[02:26.00] 我左倾如胸腔里的心脏
[02:28.26] 因非洲之角正饿殍遍野

[02:47.01] 自由从非免费 尤其在我街区
[02:49.52] 全白人的洛杉矶 钱德勒先生的梦想
[02:51.84] 但愿哥伦布日从日历消失
[02:54.27] 南中央区彰显神恩
[02:56.46] 致敬第六区养育孩子的母亲们
[02:58.96] 奥克兰廉租房 底特律鬼城
[03:01.15] 贫困垄断区满是毒贩
[03:03.40] 马尼拉某些街区似《颤栗》MV
[03:05.77] 但美使馆豪华如度假别墅
[03:08.34] 若贫困是巧克力特权是香草
[03:09.84] 那周日牧师娈童算什么口味
[03:12.09]
[03:12.93] 金钱统治着这群人
[03:15.06] 教室在我周遭凋零
[03:17.49] 你可以当伯恩斯或史密瑟斯
[03:19.93] 暴君或奴隶 但绝无中间态
[03:22.43] 在美国梦的极端之间
[03:24.43] 弗洛伊德大战尼奥 弗莱迪当裁判 算了
