Kaarmaa. - Wrath
New direction blows the wind, sun's reflection slows the ink
Tell me when the story begins
Cuz I'm only getting closer and closer to throwing the pen
You could never see, the wrath
Time for you to feel, the wrath
Another four years, different face, but the same old thing
Getting sick and tired of this Monopoly game
Playing follow the leader, they just plainly follow the dollar
Tell me who's gonna preach to the choir like Kendrick and bring the change
Read this Magna Carta while the knight checks the king
See when the media's the author, the narrative keeps us trapped
Inside our bodies, but I learned to Get Out
Like Chris Washington, and now I've come back
Like Jesus Christ, to free your life, I know the future's intact
Tethered to ignorance, you know this is Us
Like Donald said, This is America, shouting freedom, while saluting the Klan
Tell me who you really pledge allegiance to each time you raise the hand
For this country, said you'd do anything
Praising the right to bear arms and sporting MAGA hats
But you're happy to dig our graves
For the country's coffin (Coughing) cuz u refusing the masks
Irony, praising the double nickel (55) signature of '76
And ironing Confederate flags
Irony, flipping a couple nickels on the 4th of July
Til they land on the other side, Monticello, now I'm flipping mad
You could never see, the wrath
Time for you to feel, the wrath
Laura
Ingraham
Learn to shut up and think
Giving him a pass when you know that Brees drew a blank
So leave Lebron alone cuz you're the one who turned your back on the flag
While the people crying for change
Don't ever tell me, When in Rome, do what the Romans do
You know who put the Savior in chains
I'm gazing at the ashes of all that remains
How little did you know, that at just any given moment
I would be the one who you would, least expect to lose to
Light is always blinding, the frequency hurts (Hertz)
So Lady Justice open up your eyes, we're weighing options you ain't used to
Little did you know, that at just any given moment
I would be the one who you would least expect to lose to
Take away the wavelength of hatred, subtractive color mixing
Fusion of the pigments, you can follow, if you choose to
You could never see, the wrath
Time for you to feel, the wrath
So many voices
They speak of liberty
But for who
For the few
Or for all
To the East
The Sleeping Giant playing dead
Liar, liar, pants on fire, now the Red Dragon's introduced to the paladin's blade
And further down the road, you know the friendly neighbor Kimmy's got the fireworks
Mr. Clean been taking aim, at everyone, like a bunch of stains
In the West, I'm looking at your diamond necklace like it's fool's gold
Wondering why, you shouting Mine
While deep in Africa's mines, children been dying as slaves
Allow me to break the ICE and free the immigrants from their cages
Forget Columbus Day if they ain't giving back the land to the natives
Cuz that would be the day America sincerely apologizes for sins
Pilipinas, ain't forgetcha
Don't jump to conclusions, never yell Geronimo, and keep the feet planted
Cuz when you got home court advantage
Gotta make some noise, defy the silence, raise the status
Echoes of '63, when you let the freedom ring
You could never see, the wrath
Time for you to feel, the wrath
Ahmaud Arbery, Breona Taylor, George Floyd
Eric Garner, Stephon Clark, Emmett Till, the list only goes on
But like I remember Fort Minor, we gon' Remember The Names
Cuz when The Man is up to bat, he can never read society's pitch
And Uncle Sam been striking out, but I've been ready with the fist
Guess it's time for nephews and nieces to take a swing
I'm just spilling the tea, like the year was '73
Til the day they get the bigger picture, and everyone's in the frame
Mr. Renaissance Man's Mona Lisa never gonna run out of paint
Perspective of the ronin never wanes
We been bruised (Bruce) like Lee, and we been bruised (Bruce) like Wayne
But we got the system diagnosis, any given minute inject 'em the dosage
Cuz like the 'Rona virus, our patience (Patients) been wearing thin
You could never see, the wrath
Time for you to feel, the wrath
You could never see, the wrath
I'm a guest in Hip Hop's house
So better believe that I'm gonna be a pillar when the roof is crumbling down
Don't matter how hard they lean, the Tower of Pisa just never gonna bow
Never gonna bribe me with the prize of the crown
Taking a knee, you know royalty never ran in the fam, without a doubt
Never been a king (Ben E. King), but you can Stand By Me when I stand my ground
I stand with the people, the leaders' standing over them, and my roar is loud
Just a sigh of relief when you hear them breathe, cuz the knight takes king
A sign of relief, like I made my namesake proud
So many voices
They speak of liberty
But for who
For the few
Or for all
