The Battle Still Rages
Latest reports tell us what to fear
Women fear rape
Children fear men
Men fear each other
The world has gone to hell
Differences tear our world apart
But ask from where these messages really start
Media mouthpiece
Government voice
Race, religion, class and crime
Devices used to deride and divide
They don’t want us happy with what we’ve got
Because each promoted fear holds their new order up
We make them money and we keep them strong
With every niggah pushing lyric in our gangsta songs
Keeping up with the Jones’s spiritually wrong
What will it take to make your mind strong
Turn off the TV and open both eyes
Because seeing with one won’t help you get past the lies
Find joy in your heart and you can’t go wrong
Live life in faith and your joy will be long
Find things in common with your fellow man
Because only this will defeat THEM and their master plan
