Blind
Close encounters with glowing spaceships
Explode atmosphere
I found a hole in The Matrix
I'm so outta here
Weights on my ankles like Django broke
His strings on a banjo my aura like Vietnam
Chapter Panthers with afros
My flow dirty like dope
Fiends sleeping on benches
A disease-infested evil intention
Feast for the senses
Seen in the trenches reaching for weapons
But soon seen preaching redemption
Society point fingers at the hood
And say we animals
That's like the cracked pot calling
The kettle the cannibal
We're not the ones that kill
Millions in illegal wars
Transport billions in cocaine
Build prisons and tap phones
We don't need more nines or heaters
We need more Poor Righteous Teachers
Public Enemies that are scholars and thinkers
Educated in the ways beyond the system
Beyond statistics and analytics
And chrome pistols
How sad am I when the blind lead the blind
Broken light, now I'm dwelling in darkness
Constructing criminal minds
When the blind lead the blind
Broken light, now I'm dwelling in darkness
Imagine Stevie Wonder leading Ray
Charles into The Matrix
Faceless enemies are placed in stasis
I was born and raised
To be Brooklyn streetwise
My mother and father reading through
The Book of Eli
Unwritten words connected in braille
Setup for the epic fail rejected bail
Helen Keller sentenced and sent to jail
A prison of darkness
These killers is living heartless
I found out my seeing-eye dog
Had his eyes gouged out
Matt Murdock was an impaired rebel
Who grew up to be the Daredevil
Paired with a Wolverine who can tear metal
Blindfolded, a design for the eyes broken
And Justice prefers to never
Have her eyes open allow me to clarify
Zatoichi swinging the sword of the Samurai
Leading the force with a battle cry
Over the street beats we can
Play the street piano
Blazing Feliz Navidad, Jose Feliciano
How sad am I when the blind lead the blind
Broken light, now I'm dwelling in darkness
Constructing criminal minds
When the blind lead the blind
Broken light, now I'm dwelling in darkness
Look at this world that we live
In how could you not despair?
What kind of demons and evils we
Got to box with here
Is there a rhyme or a reason
To all this toxic fear?
Is there a time or a season
To let the shotgun clear?
Is there a man of God present
Or a doctor here?
The scent of death is in the air
I was not prepared
So my nostrils flare, I got a hostile stare
And all these ghosts walking with me
What a cross to bare
How far from the floor is
The reach of the rope?
When you step off the stool and
Hang while it's squeezing your throat
That's the death of a fool but you
Would drain my peeps of their hope
Poison our souls and went and filled
The streets up with dope
The corporations and the media
Are not above us
Nor are the governments and courts
Only God can judge us
This technology is eating our minds
With false Gods
It's more of the blind leading the blind
How sad am I when the blind lead the blind
Broken light, now I'm dwelling in darkness
Constructing criminal minds
When the blind lead the blind
Broken light, now I'm dwelling in darkness
