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 Hook x 1 (Beat abruptly stops) Man… who are we really kidding? It’s been like this since the beginning of mankind! Is it really likely this shit’s ever gonna to change? Check it out yo, it’s right here in the books…
