Bald Eagle (Ode to life, slavery and the American way)

by Aaron Howard

We love to drop all types of ill verses.
Sending all the competition home in hearses.
Making your mind boggle with this massive intellect
off of words you can understand and truly respect.
I'm not all about hate or talking about drugs
and I don't claim to be a bad ass hanging around with thugs.
I speak of knowledge, power and maybe even truth
and I ain't out to get another letter on a gold tooth.
I'm here to tell you all that life is short
and you always end up fucked over in court.
Your life is just but a flash of a strobe light,
So c'mon people drop all the extraneous bullshit tonight.
No more drunken battles out on the dance floor.
No one grabbing my girls ass and calling her a whore.
No more of that racial shit even though white people can't dance
but hey at least give some of us white people a decent chance...
I didn't take your family as slaves way back years ago
since we're all slaves to money, or didn't you really know?
So I can't really apologize when I'm in the same sinking boat as you
since the ones that have all the money seem to be so few...
I mean the ratio is 5% to the lower stationed rest
Now you look around and tell me who has it best?
My ass working away all day for that minimum wage
just to be locked away in some decrepit cage.
Yeah whatever, we all know it's all fucked
and that eagle of freedom has long been plucked...
