Pentameters of Hell

we living in bereft times, it’s the KKK era all over again

except for the KKK, it’s cops and feds

Bloods and Crips against the innocent

this was the supremacist’s dream

for black people to turn against each other

all they had to do was put us in the ghetto

compile us into deteriorating housing projects

pollute our water, taint our food

cut funding for the schools

give us teachers who are only there to collect a check

not teaching us anything, yet they blame us for terrible grades and test scores

this state been failing us

i’m spitting pentameters of hell, the American Dream?

that’s a cute way to spell oppression, bullshit, and nightmares

it all sounded great on paper

i don’t gotta tell you the rest,

those immigrants were lied to after they left Ellis Island

leaving diaspora only to come to another one

America is only great for discrimination

ask the old white lady in Walmart who hates Mexicans

because they taking jobs y’all too privileged to keep

you resign and collect pension six months later

that’s why you got people like me

who speak out and help their people

however, every time a black man does that

you criminalize him

you send people to stop him

i don’t give a fuck what you do to me

it won’t stop me you piece of shit

i wanna change this shit, the work is gonna be dire

but i’m willing to do it, if no one does it

then no one else will, we putting bandaids on deep cuts

placing tape on top of sink holes

i didn’t hear shit about Trump planning to pay off our national debt

yet he wants a wall constructed, federal workers can’t feed their families because of this fool

China has some answers for you, pay them their money

if you need the order, give me the rifle

i'll get the job done

pentameters of hell i’m spitting

how do you treat someone who was born to entertain

put him on a pedestal, buy all his work

obsess over him, make him slumdog rich

then you ostracize him for speaking against this fake society

critics berating you, fans becoming haters

saying that your speech is only free if you say what i want you to say

if not, then you will no longer be endorsed by me

draw the line in the sand, half your fan base has now been annihilated

everyone taking the subtle jokes you throw in your poetry literally

calling me radical and a terrorist for threatening to burn down this nation of hypocrisy

yet y’all got police killing us and white boys shooting up our schools

and they’re not convicted???

wanna know how to get away with murder?

become a cop or a mass shooter

i can get 20 to life for a misdemeanor

a traffic ticket and a gram of marijuana

or a rape that i’ve been falsely accused of

all that money in damages that i had to pay those so-called victims

who only wanted cock on the first date

knowing i ain’t get out of pocket, those hoes asked for it

they just wanted a check i’m gonna get flak but #MeToo is going too far

now any man in America can become a sexual predator

he ain’t even gotta slip his dick into a woman to be considered a rapist

yet the Vatican been doing this shit to children for centuries

don’t quote me on that, ask the Pope

can’t even wrap arms around a female, it’s considered sexual assault

can’t even kiss her cheek whenever we hug, it’s considered sexual assault

can’t even compliment her on her figure, it’s considered sexual assault

can’t even tell dirty jokes, again

IT’S CONSIDERED SEXUAL ASSAULT

i saw my momma get assaulted and no one did shit about it

and these stupid ass money hungry hoes can get away with these allegations they put in the media

now, don’t take this the wrong way

i’m not taking away from the actual victims of sexual assault

i just hate that people use this shit for profit and clout

the most disrespected woman in America is the black woman

who’s the most disrespected man in America?

you guessed it!!!!

now watch a white person say

“no, it’s white people”

pentameters of hell i’m spitting

i’m done with the shit

take it how you want to but

this is the truth i’m givin’ u
