"Seeing The White Light"
"I have a dream, that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. I have a dream today!"
Martin Luther King.
[The Image – Racial Bias In Rap]
What’s with the world? People really mustn’t give a shit..
Anymore cause my thoughts~just~reside inside a pit..
I need to quit, but my conscience keeps me in control..
If it wasn’t for lyrics id be known as a lost soul..
Truth be told, I never really cared about front covers..
But magazines are always so biased about our colors..
They don’t care about how dope the last single you wrote was..
They just care about pop charts, I swear their oblivious..
And I cant take them serious, their visions are all delirious..
Relating to a trend, that’s growth rate has me fearing this..
Generic lyricists, hearing his name and now he’s acting..
Not even a fraction of action until he started rapping..
Now he’s in his own world high horse acting spectacular..
With immaculate flows & hoes, sucked dry like Dracula..
However meaning in his lyrics is non existent..
Praise the system they didn’t miss him, but he aint on a mission..
He’s just wishing folks don’t realise he isn’t dope..
Acting nice to paparazzi, snorting lines of coke..
His whole world is fictitious, Id break his fucking face..
Cause raps just a stereotype, its all about your race..
[Untapped Potential – An Understanding]
Are we accepted? Or are we pushed into the dark?
Feeling misconception, like steel swords through the heart..
My fine art of lyricism’s, constantly being neglected..
Cause its our skin pigment, deciding if were respected..
Sometimes it feels like, this white light tests my mentals..
Cause being white in rap, is like writing with broken pencils..
Its aint easy always fighting to gain the upper hand..
And nah this aint slavery, but now I understand..
The true power of being held back upon my mind..
Constantly facing discrimination against my kind..
My flows perfected, got potential to be the greatest..
Sometimes I hate this, but I’m always a pessimist..
They call me a specialist, till they fucking discover..
That my face is white, it mustn’t be matching the cd cover..
Shit, I feel another, systematic flaw in my game..
Aint it fucked up, what I love, drives me insane..
But who’s to blame for this mishap, is it the media?
Cause true rap is from within you, not what their feeding ya..
Its all lies, defining rap through popularity polls..
It aint about lyrics, its who’s image they can control..
[Seeing The Light – Chasing The Same Dream]
I wonder if well ever learn to set aside our differences..
But distance in our culture’s why we fail in many instances..
It seems as though were being led around on a tight leash..
By trend setters, that kept profound letters that teach..
Racism, lies, violence and disbelief..
That left certain people, with immense amounts of beef..
I’m not sold on the idea that peace should be a law..
We need war, cause struggle is what most of us live for..
I’m just saying we need to realise equality is trife..
And uncover the burning rag that’s blocking our own light..
