Lovely Genocide

Societal Poetic Piece

By Dalton “Statz” ClinePublished 5 years ago 1 min read

Bow, Bow, Bow

here them gun sounds

ain’t it so foul

how they want to see us down

instead of controlling the town

put us away

keep us caged

making sure we feel the pain

by tearing up families, what can I say?

this ain’t how it’s supposed to be

we’re supposed to be kings and queens/ expanding out humanity

but instead we see division, not unity

how can it ever be achieved?

through brotherly love

but having love

pshh...that’s such a lie

wrapped in disguise

because nowadays people only care about the lovely genocide

Conscious state of mind

Lookin out on our streets

Seeing these youngin’

Out here slinging the heat

They don’t know, they don’t know

The system set against them

please bless em

Give them another way

There’s gotta be another way

To open their eyes

To see the demise

That’s disguised

With false riches

Help us escape the lovely Genocide
