Mz Tink - Justify

The laws of the unjust
Justify infringing upon
Your personal lives
Never to separate
Church from state
My views shall be
Your views
Even if that means
Changing you
You have all rights
To disagree
But dare not do it publicly without permission
Done following the norms
On a mission to walk my own path
And live my life

Everybody thinks they are living free
Without chains
You will see
We are all caged mentally
Told what to think
What to believe
How to act it's a fact
God created me
Government won't help me pay only aim to control the way I live
Back in 1962
Began removing prayers from schools
But not the solemn oath
Even though both mention God
By his name
How do you choose which one we should salute?
When one stands up to shoot
I bet you bring prayer in there then
It's just insane to me how In God We Trust
Fits in our hand daily
But we;re told you can only pray if it's not
Turbulent
Have you heard of this?
Craziness
I'm amazed at this

Everybody thinks they are living free
Without chains
You will see
We are all caged mentally
Told what to think
What to believe
How to act
When to cleave
Even how to achieve

I sit in disbelief
Reviewing laws
Set by a man
Telling me how I
Can freak my man
Inside of my home
They infringe on my right
Please explain how this is right
Can't coexist
Without a marriage license
But they dish out
Unlivable circumstances
Cost of living is raised

No hope for the living
We will all end up in a grave
Leaving children behind
With limits on places to pray
No hope for the living
We will all end up in a grave
Leaving children behind
With limits on places to pray

Can't date the same sex
It's biblically incorrect
One minute as a Christian
I can't outwardly pray
The next angle you take
The right to choose who I date away
How do you pick and choose
The rules to govern my life
Throwing legal jargons
To make it sound right
Creating holidays in Niggas names
Who gets no glory
For fake finding and botched stories
Taking all focus off of
The matters that matter
Placing changes in place
As we sleep
Indivisible
More like indescribable
500 Plus years
Before Christopher's mother
Could tell you about the kid
America was discovered
Yet, instead of searching
Intro truths
We celebrate his victory in 1492
Is it just me?
None of this shit seems strange to you

Everybody thinks they are living free
Without chains
You will see
We are all caged mentally
Maybe not lynched for my crimes
Day to day we pay with time
Marches for Just-Ice
It's a must
That we are scared
But always prepared
They wonder why
People are filled with mistrust
Disgust
About to combust
We are waking up
In the dawn
No longer entrusting
The R
Or the D
Only you that's next to me
That with my own eyes
I can see
That's the only way to
Implement change

Everybody wants to live in the
Land of the free
Were still in chains
You have seen
We've been programmed
To believe
Barely achieve
Kill ourselves to succeed

Only the blood of my loved ones will I bleed
Touched on some soft spots
Yes indeed
But those things we discussed
That mislead
Should be the topic of conversation
Unity
Will rock a nation
Unplug your brain
Deprogram your mind
Follow your own beat
Don't be stuck in a phase
Take faith out of man
Put it in God
With Liberty
And Justice
For all
