overture - lingua franca (rapper) lyrics

i know i will never see the seeds that i have planted grow. but i have seen the guts of the machine that f*cks us, and it will be dismantled slow. and i know i will never see the seeds that i have planted grow. but i have seen our freedom in a dream and trust that this is the perfect overture

skin is cinnamon latte, but my talk*ways is chalk white as a dove flock at a c*ck fight. all my life gettin’ told that i’m choc*late, that i’m scary spice, doesn’t even matter if i’m posh spice wit a dark side. i be fairly bright, but it doesn’t matter still get shot dead under cop lights like a bad dog, just another case left to suffocate like a tadpole out of water, a bottom fed parasite left to bake on the pavement in fahrenheit of a summer day while my mother waits feeling terrified as she’s wondering whether i’m running late, if my body’s traced in a chalk line to be verified

i heard the shot but i’d never have the chance to see the smoking gun, t*shirt soaking blood as it’s seeping up over the linoleum, holding on to the bottle still. they could have called the hospital but they lured the cops, convinced of images of n*gga kids as hostile kids

this nation hates us and wants us to hate us too, it’s advantageous when asians hate n*ggas and n*ggas hate asians so when a shopkeeper fearing robbery ends an innocent teenagerdom the system isn’t broken no it’s fully operational and we’ve watched it work this way so well since way before that fateful day in april 1992 when they riot looted when they raised h*ll. they were finally through being scapegoats for the neighborhoods you’d confined us to, to the grinding lives you’d assigned us to, with your grimy schools and your crack rocks and your bad cops and these white juries that blindly choose complicity who find shootings in this city so commonplace, deciding fates like eight b*lls so flippantly. for centuries we’ve stayed calm but a new day has dawned and you best believe it wreaks of napalm
