Graffiti in the Mirror
Location
Jesus was a king, We didn't even know it
Found out Drake could sing, We didn't even know it
Slavery resulted to a good thing, You didn't even know it
African Americans with degrees, from 3rd World to NEPOtists
Graffiti in the Mirror, That's a tainted image
Leave your dreams to be unclear, Like that green on that Spinach
Or that Martin Luther King Ave, Ironically filled with violence
Them boys had a Dream; Cars, Nike's and Women grinding
Or better yet bullets flying, that Gangsta life they implying
"Gun powder left on that chicken", Our young men are frying
Leaving little boys left dying, Causing more mothers to be crying
No Kleenex for their eyes, Just a coffin bill on bad timing
Hold up...
You started searching for God, Instead you found Kanye West
I asked for a tattoo of Jesus and got Yeezus inked on my chest
At least that's a lesser lie of what Jesus looked like
Allowed Syncretism to happen, Now he's blue eyes and white
Hitler's Grandpa might have been Jewish and Muhammad Ali was scared of fighting
If that isn't Graffiti in the Mirror, Then all my professors have been lying
You looked into the mirror to see your reflection
Got neon colors and a skewed face, leaving half your face fluorescent
Now all your thoughts are depressant, like that Ethanol on your brain
Kind of like them doses of cocaine, had needle shots to your blood veins
What if Shakespeare was a woman?, Would you see things the same?
"I'm society's mirror and boy, you hallucinating things.
Ain't no woman perfecting her craft unless its cheesy pasta rings.
Ain't no woman writing like that, unless she just a secretary on staff,
But NO position after that. She's just a body for a porn mag.
Just a piece of meat to be grabbed, or a cook for the kitchen.
It's a step up if she's housekeeper for the Nixon's
I'm telling you.. they're just stupid Wom..."( BAM!!)
(Sounds of glass shattering)
I just broke the glass!
That Graffiti in the Mirror turned to Graffiti on glass scraps.
Leaving society breathless and woman without a checklist
Now dreams can be straight for youngens and women can get a check
No Backwards, it was wreckless, Now people can do less wreck
Take a Lap to the Top, How's that for an Enter Net Ex...plorer {Internet Explorer}
Our hearts we all invest
Image Scams with Graffiti cans, Reflection misleads perplex
Leaving us scared and under stress, Mentally deranged like war vets
Gonna need therapy for that critically impaired me
That Dr.Phil Oprah Net, But now we can see clearly
I can actually hear me and truthfully take the path to my dreams
No More Graffiti in the Mirror, I'm in Collage {college} making Potpourri {infant saying poetry}
