Race Against Reality

A song for the mentally stable is about to be sung Get hip, for the beginning has begun Some dumb young guns try to diss up on the one Who has a break plus chooses it, muses try to fuse in it The point I'm pressing on Why's it so hard to understand Black man? His needs and demands Even more so brothers and sisters be dissin' themselves With this reality upon a dusty shelf Going alone with the stasis throne The ignorant tone is in a class of its own You could hate me for saying what has to be said Instead, try checking what goes into your head On a deep note, where I want my brothers where they should be Sisters should be following examples that are good, see Facin' reality and what flows with it Using no fakeness, no frauds, no gimmicks Tricks of the trade, played out Like hoping your problems fade out 'Cause this only makes matters worse And makes facin' reality act in reverse I'm disgusted with what I'm subjected to Watching ignorant onces and ugly you Playing a role of somebody in a soap Expecting the rest of the world to just cope Damn, you've been playing a part that you're not Damn, you've been spreading the vibe that you've got Wake up and break up this stupid illusion Dismiss the negative vibes that you usin' Wipe off your face take a look in the water You quit this race is really what you ordered To develop thoughts with a sense of vitality Once and for all, stop racing against reality I'm slapping you with this beat with this rhyme Desperately tryin' to get to your mind Come one come all, this goes to the troops Y'all a bunch of dumb folks, I got proof From roof to roof floats the question mark I suggest you get rid of it Switch on the new shit you abuse The game of life you lose 'Cause you chose, you took on the stroll times lootin' You froze, when someone tried to reason you held up your nose What are you, dumb or stupid or both? Ignorant brothers and sisters are hoes To games played by the media If they don't kill you the government will see to ya' Wake up dammit, life is now You gotta plan better than you have done This song is past its capacity My people, quit racing against reality
