Jeph.Ilosopher - cancel culture shock

Now it's setting in
Like the pain when they taper off the medicine
No we're we not in Kansas anymore I've been reckoning
With a different canvas different strokes different folks I've never seen
And they stare a hole in me
So deep they can probably see the soul in me
At the very least they can study my anatomy
But tell me are you happy are scared are you mad at me? no idea
I don't understand yall
And I know you think I'm stupid cuz I can't talk
In the same tongue eating strange meat
I don't know which animal it came from
Now I can't sleep going crazy
Don't trip
I'm just going through some things feeling homesick
Gotta stop holding on to things I can't grow with
Feeling culture shock since i left comfort zone for a bold switch

How could i know
Everything was right so long ago
All goes to show
Never saw the light no no no

Ah yes
When you take me out my context
Then it gets a little complex
Yeah it gets a little complex
Acknowledge that

It's the year 2050 just imagine that
Living in a cancel culture aftermath
Is there even culture anymore or did we cancel that
Sanitize our hands so much that bacteria can handle that
Bring the passion back
Where's the raw meat straight from the habitat
Where's our holidays for the tyrants and the psychopaths
No one ever died we ate dirt
Even though we don't have stats for that
That's a fact and i transplanted that like an ex pat
Isolate the fruits from the labor like an extract
See if you can digest when you take a step back naw
Matter of fact I used to curse a storm up in old battle raps
What if I was teaching and my children got their hands on that
Til it detonates like a blast from the past i thought I buried that but
I must've planted that

How could i know
Everything was right so long ago
All goes to show
I don't want the the light no no no
Ah yes
When you take me out my context
Then it gets a little complex
Yeah
Acknowledge that

Was a bad night but I'm brand new today
Suddenly there's something that illuminates
Everything uncomfortable has proved to have conducive ways
To the evolution of a human to a lucid state [stay woke]
Truly awake to a newer way
And i embrace different sides and can communicate
Understand the bond between a person and community
Finding connection and common values can rejuvenate
It's kind of stupid to adjudicate
But we do it all the time cuz it's human fate
Maybe human nature to assume we're greater
Seen it in your mental movie trailer who are you the savior?
Blame it on the USA
Ruminate
On how we can't lock our actions in a room and wait
Well never segregate our heart from it's environment
We need each other to holistically recuperate
