What's their motivation?
In this day of age
People hatin
Fake friends become enemies
The whole time they been fakin
Pay attention to what I'm sayin?
And who do you think you playin?
When you choose the wrong path
Not knowing we’re laid back
With our feet up
And just laugh
Saying to ourselves
Young black N****S
Amongst themselves
Killing each other
As fast as lightning struck
Bodies pilling
No need to interfere
Without the structure of the building
There is no way to hold them up
Not even realizing that they possess power
And if they put their minds together
They’d grow by the thousands every hour
I think to myself
How did they forget what they went through?
That’s it,
They didn’t have to go through
IT!!!!
No boycotts
Getting shot while being black
Forced to take a seat in the back
They didn’t get lynched or
Tied to a bench
While…..
Being sprayed down with a hose
Trying to stay alive while breathing through their nose
They heard of their people
Getting hanged by the dozens
But won’t put trust in their own people
And would shoot them
After an argument before they huge them
See
We are
Who we are
Since the beginning
Ruling things
Passing down corporation’s to our kids
Professional Sport teams
Capitalizing and getting rich off of N*****S
Buying our products while
We sit back and get richer
I ask myself
When will they join together?
And put their pride aside and ask each other for help
See I paid your ancestors by the penny
One of us
20 of y’all….(of you there were many)
Picking cotton sometimes 7 days a week
While their fingers blister up
In the scorching heat
Only to be let down at the end of the year
When it’s time to get paid
After I take out 50% of their earnings
From
The things they need to live off of like…
Tissue, food, cloths
They’re left with half of their wage
I paid them by the penny
You do the math
I was left with plenty
As I sit here and watch the news every night
I’m amazed
While another N***** is murdered
Laid down on his face
Will they ever wake up?
I asked myself
As I turned the channel
Left with a question in mind
What is there motivation?
