RapVerse.com Community - Fulcrum Shift (Album Version)

(Beat: “The CIA’s Trying to Kill Me” – Non Phixion)

For the right…

The world’s slowly unhinging…
Fringing on madness, rash binging…
On chaos like the balance is tipping…

Can’t have it like this…

Verse 1:

There’s not enough solutions and too many prayers
Too much fission of big balers driving out the small players
A great many debts and troubles and not enough favours
Each day new mouths to feed but not always the means to cater
Way too many social layers, crooked mayors, too much division
Not enough public schools but plenty of state funded prisons
A great stack of jurisdiction, the Government’s on a mission
To cause havoc and friction livin in a world of science fiction
Too much diction and not enough vision, thought eviction
We don’t have enough coalition, the only thing I see is evasion
Too much separation, blacks, whites, Latinos and Asians
Not nearly enough unity but a myrriad of new nations
One million cocaine plantations but no 3rd world collation
The relation’s gone abstract, we’re backtracking in occasion
Patience is virtuous but not when half the world’s an aberration
Let’s face it… we been drifting apart since the day of our creation

Hook:

It’s a… fulcrum shift, the balance adrift
We gotta… lift world’s shards from the ash in our midst
It’s our… own fault the world is how it is
And its our… own fault if it stays like this
It’s a… fulcrum shift, the balance adrift
We gotta… lift world’s shards from the ash in our midst
It’s our… own fault the world is how it is
And we betta… raise our voices and shake our fists

Verse 2:

We gotta start taking action, the world’s slowly slipping
We’re tripping, some discussions but no one seems to be listening
Too many kids growing up whose dream’s are now missing
Homeless people sitting on grain, rap stars sipping champagne
Plenty of finger-pointing like everyone’s passing the blame
We gotta start using our brains before this whole world crumbles
There’s a rumble on the streets and the pivot’s ready to tumble
This world has too much hating and not enough loving
Hardly any affection but always plenty of pushing and shoving
Not enough real friends and too many wicked back-stabbers
A great deal of empty promises that all seem to lack matter
Too many people giving up and not enough faith or trust
Too many arrogant individuals who never wait but rush
Way too much show boating now, too many idiots only joking
When’s the last time you heard something truly though provoking?
Out of hand hoaxing and way too much sugar coating, gloating
I see plenty of telling but never nearly enough showing
Everything’s slowing, reality’s cloaking, too much dick-blowing
Towing us all along into a crooked state of knowing
Too much exemption too mention and not enough correction
We don’t care about prevention, when all we want is redemption
Tension in society, worries at birth, life and pension
Not enough protection by the law but plenty forms of detention
Mind’s too busy inspecting they neglect free thought and invention
Not enough power of one, we’re all just statistics and sections
