Emancipator the anthem.

(HUMDANGER)
These days thangs done changed, been flipped screwed and rearranged.
Fires in L.A. and Trump the strange swanging his proverbial dangalang.
Folks musta done bumped they heads, just fell outta bed as down the road to stupidity humanity is led.
A tear slowly falling down an observant cheek, morality falling so slow, spiralling deep, of simpler times do we seek.
These days and off on tangents we go, 60 second soundbites leading to closed avenues and blocked does.
Cause down south we shout it out till it echoes.
Spit it till it reverberates, spin it till it calculates, all this preponderance of so much weight.
Why does poverty exist, why the black man always gotta desist, whose property really is this, such an abyss.
Tic Toc the body rock as the beat drops, here today gone tomorrow back again as the story flip flops.
Who do we believe as the earth rotates revolutionary as relative in outer space, another day passing, such a sadly orchestrated pace as relating to the rat race.
Here so many are found, blind and perpetually bound.
