Strange Fruit Lyrics by Melanin 9

144,000

2008

[Chorus]
Follow me to a place where a face don't smile
There is no hope for youngers on the block running wild
Single parent mothers struggle to support their baby
Their father's either dead or in jail or gone crazy
Daughters skip school to lay boys with their friends
The boys look up to the older shotters with the Benz
The media exploits black deaths with no solution
This is a place where love is just an illusion; the slums
[Verse 1]
I saw a race that came from bondage and slaves
Turn on each other with guns; drugs bundle in slums
Laminated floors; youngers engage in a fabricated cause
A cold presence that embrace staying raw
Barricaded doors like cages; holes with no cielings
Block wars disturb a new born from dreaming
Echoes from top floor screaming
The blade inflicted was once an argument is now a big statistic
Young teens abused; she's confused and frigid
Stumbling home from a strong dose of vigiliance
My pen paints a place where misery loves to visit
Mothers can sit and suffer in the blizzard
Brothers cut with precision from pirates' bows and handed to youngers to silence the role
Far from a horrible scroll was once blind now I focus the scope
Saw forces so clear like as-as we smoke on a cold night
Your odds are risky like a rollin' dice and tramp's make there beds on a broke sight
Cancerous cells bite the whole night; living a soulless life
Most high embrace strength and honour
Utopian mindstate; the mind is greater then the Tamarean scholar
Cautiously walking floors beneath a plotter
Can time cure all problems scared ? it's a question I couldn't ask till it's pointed and played in the past
[Chorus]
What does it take to make you realize it were killing each other
My Black brother from another mother
Were going under how strong is a purpose if you life another men's word
It takes a wise man too always overstand and observe
What does it take to make you realize it were killing each other
My Black brother from another mother
Were going under how strong is a purpose if you life another men's word
It takes a wise man too always overstand and observe
Picture a pain of a planet in orbit
Where populated tales keep the flow nauseous
Observing sales hell fortress
Juvenile bails female abortions; fallen leaves
Police concealed the trued about beef
