slummin

what's fun about riding through the slums?
it might be home, but it's a sign of the pain we come from
i go dumb trying understand why it's impressive
to show your date a scene that reeks of oppression
when will we learn our lesson?

stop letting the system rape our bleeding culture
stop selling our struggle
stop pimping our souls for disposable income
of kids living in the suburban bubble

just let it burst, it'll hurt
we owe it to our people for what it's worth
i'm done watching art pass by in a hearse
