You gotta be tired, the process, systematic
Sheltered, ignorant and meek –
Peeps need to kick the sheep
Like Fifa or a bad habit.
While the powers that be
Still label the others as savage,
There’s no relief for a media addict.
.
Yeah, you’re an addict.
I’m an addict too.
After all, this is on the book
So, yes, I’ve seen the madness too
But if you’re a savage,
You know that I’m a savage too.
.
Now, I know this is a sensitive concept
So let me try to explain:
The motherland remains neglected in times of struggle and pain
While dumb oil-hungry motherfuckers go hunt Saddam Hussein
Or how when Ebola struck
All the concern was on the US of A?
Speaking of, Mr. Officer, when did shooting blacks become okay?
.
So when I use the word savage,
It is because this place still treats you like one.
Not all the time,
Not from everyone.
But slavery, oppression – it still exists.
.
However, the eye that rarely gazes towards them,
Cannot help but see –
.
The others in themselves.
