(OF LIONS, WOLVES AND SCARY ASS SHEEP)


(OF LIONS, WOLVES AND SCARY ASS SHEEP)
THE SOUND OF THE CHOIR AS THE LION SPEAKS...
https://youtu.be/lcSRrKw9v0I

And from the ghettos there arose a cry...
Not a cry of tears but of rage as the denizens of this dismal place realised that they had been duped.
They realised that as they fought over streets, fought over clothes, fought over women and men society had labeled them the problem.
Keep in mind this was the same society that sold them the guns to kill each other and built the prisons to lock them up.
This was the same society that built the liquor stores and supplied the drugs...
The cry became the scream as they watched another child die from the need to live.
To be recognized.
To be somebody in a world where they were considered nobody.
The church looking out stained glass windows blamed the problem on saggy pants and short dresses... On reality T.V. as they hurried home to watch Empire and Atlanta housewives.
As they opened the door to the Mercedes and Caddies parked by the front door of their den of iniquity.
The poor had so long given them money that they fat and rich expected it, teaching the poor that the way out was the10 percent that they gave to the 10 percent.
The truth buried in secret societies that operated in full view of the pew.
The cry became a roar as lions born in concrete jungles stopped wearing sheeps skin and flying flags.
As lions picked up books and learned to speak the language legalese which had been used to keep them mentally and physically enslaved.
The system noticed and introduced them to Molly and her sister Meth... They new arrivals on the block strutted their stuff and sold their pussy to all who would buy.
They together the bitch known as Flakka knocked dicks in the dirt as the overseers newly crowned officers looked the other way.
It's not an epidemic till it hits the suburbs where Chad and Amy attend private institutions with the black preachers kids.
Where the house nigga thinks its their home... "Look at me I live next to massa!"  Only a fraction of a second away from being profiled and killed... The bullet or the jail cell.
Black skin so threatening that even our children lying under the white sheet on asphalt are villified.
Denied justice in a courtroom by a jury of just-us.
Wolves acting like it's a democracy.
Lions such an endangered species as they stand in the ghetto and elicit subsonic... Hated by the church... Hated by the system and hated by the pride...
In the ghetto they are born and in the ghetto they die as those in power breathe a collective sigh.
Once again they have suppressed the cry.
