MONASTERIES Lyrics by PHONZZ

BADWATER

0

NY natives relocated / Hyper gentrafication on they block / Turned the neighborhood bodega to a chase bank / Push em out the city while they chase bank / STL feeling like the new, New York
It's genocide how they lay homes then reside / Just like they found America / They gone find your hood / And interrupt the monestary / Contrary to belief / It's no longer hide and seek / Matter fact it's quite brief / That shit look urban, they observing / Leave your culture / They can habitat that / But can't add it back, damn / My city kinda quarentiend off / Unknown culture and shit / Now we going public, I love it / I always wanted that / Don't have to move to pursue or pay dues / But damn, they're relocating cultures as we speak / And I don't think Obama care / And rapping ain't enough to show em that I care / I'm usually not the type that would activist / The east indian sector down the block / I gotta voice I can protect ya / Until I'm heckled and get pressured / God Bless You / You just wanna live and I wanna live too / Discriminations universal tongue, if they only knew / At least they granted permission to breath free / And be free / Or at least leave / It's a butterfly effect I see
Pulled over on a dark street / I could hear shortys heart beat / So quiet.. It was sounding like a harley / And this nigga armed with a chopper god damn / We shoulda pulled off "scrrrrr" / Luckily for us just a routine search / White girl, Black kid guess he figured I had dirt on me / Can't cruise in America without suspicion / They want us gone soooo bad / Never told my mom that story and I still wouldn't if I had a Dad / Don't want em scared that I can't live, still alive / But where I'm gone live? / See how it connects there's no disconnect / I hope it spreads through the internet / New intellect where the powers that be can't intersect
