Asylum (Permanent Underclass)

Dalek


Adverse effect affect the 10that might listen 
Welcome to the 21st neo-inquisition 
Bite your tongue hold you thoughts close to vest 
Better yet look for stars that they stitch reading "projects" 
Ironic, we never see ourselves as next prey 
What, now we equals cause we have a King's holiday? 
Coming storm here to stay 
They turned the noon sky heron gray 
Africans into slaves 
Say we free 
But if we speak like Malcolm X then they assassinate 
Fate of men on corporate memos 
Halos reserved for those who keep status quo 
Carry big stick but speak in low tones. 

Truth festers under scab of lies 
We the permanent underclass don't act surprised. 

Denied access to true wealth 
We may have felt the death blow 
Again they stole our vocal chords and sold them to the devil 
We use to raise our fists now our leadership just settles 
Eyes off the ghettos 
Keep watching those space shuttles 
In midst of this madness it's madmen that win 
Even when we vote the opposite it all reverts to Reagan 
Silly Christian pagans 
Still clutching myths dated back to ancient Babylon 
That might unravel dawn 
Misconstrued world view used to assault the misinformed kings 
That move and act like pawns 
Artist's conform and play minstrel 
Police State treats our young as criminals 
Why pray to Roman death symbols? 

Truth festers under scab of lies 
We the permanent underclass don't act surprised. 

Inner City streets still reek of our inner turmoil 
Killing melanined equates to X amount of oil 
They're telling tall tales to keep our eyes on foreign soil 
Hearing truth from poor lips makes their blue blood boil 
Play foil to false patriots 
Remind youth of '67's race riots 
When they learned to keep us quiet 
Consumers consuming 
Products we are now neither making or using 
It only gets more confusing 
30of armed troops minorities 
Casualties directly impact Black and Latin families 
If freedom is what we are fighting for, they why'd they swindle Gore? 
Imprison most our men and never really outlaw lynching? 
The rich get tax breaks, so they are stealing from the pensions of the poor 
Who were lured to this land by ideas of better lives 
Or tightly packed onto slaveships who's origin historians forever rewrite 
Only goal to incite a mental riot 
Defiant of airwaves designed to Tailor how I act 
I drop the fists and guns and use this tongue to combat
