Sister Lauryn

What ever happened to sister Lauryn?

She spoke those words so truthfully

Then she disappeared in thin air just like smokescreen

Is this what happens in the music scene?

Is it disease or pretentious people that killed Marley?

Was it the need to be themselves in our structural deficiency?

I mean it’s hard to have a mind and live this mind-numbing consistency

Would Lauryn be around if not for her husband’s promiscuity?

Was he too weak to handle her and so broke up his family

Would Joplin be around if it wasn’t just for money

She got smart to the fact that they were ripping her off constantly

I’m sick of seeing all our role models disappear

They push inferior minds with thoughts that just pollute the air

Music is getting weaker, we don’t notice, we don’t care

Inflicted with ideas that we will all be millionaires

Is this our American dream? It’s insanity

It’s time to wake the fuck up from propaganda and the scrutiny

Separate yourself, will to be not a want to be

Dreams mean I’m asleep

It’s nightmarish and all kind of phony

I need a sense of truth so let’s just go out and spill it

We got raised to be paranoid due to financial stasis

Our salary is an aired cage that keeps us in our pointlessness

Forgetting to do the things that were destined of our worth

No more wasting time

No more wasting rhymes or lyrics

I want to touch the world

Really penetrate the pubic

I’m artist dam it

Not a pimp, a prostitute or even a Republican

I won’t sell myself short just to dumb down in via transit

I’m gonna fuckin master this life, be an intellectual puritan

I’m sure then, to touch the loyalty of the millions

To all those that can’t relate that hide behind a gin and tonic

Facebook status a paralysis

Meant to keep us all united

Though divided we all stand kind of looking for the pack leader

He is nowhere to be found unless he is a financial deceiver

So I’m fed up of these lies we’re sold about wealth and pure fake fortune

Don’t you waste this perfect life it is worse upthan abortion
