Tuskegee Lyrics by Solgob

Of All

2019

I just wanted her in the sheets and, send a little blood to my artery
But a night in the arms of Venus leads to a lifetime on mercury
This the last thing I needed, stack it on living life in poverty
Well they said I got bad blood, volunteered for a treatment study
They the Public Health Service, I know they got my best interest - well
I’m illiterate, I can't read the form but I heard free healthcare , well yeah, yeah
Yeah, I’ll sign right up, put me in the queue, need something new, this was past due
It kinda felt sketch, shake the white man’s hand, see ya Monday next

Oppression comes in many forms
Some don’t know that they living in it
Distracted by the skin and the gore
Let them see what we want, keep em living in it
The Devil’s living right next door
He’s got a list of names, and he’s drooling on it
Ya never know, he might pick yours
When things are looking up he’s gettin down on it

I been seeing you for years doc, but I see no improvements, what do I got, God
I got a rash spreading under there, what happened to the health care, I’m getting scared, yeah
You told me back in 32 that I would get cured, feel like I got lured now, now
Now a couple men have died, what’s up with that? and what the fuck’s with the spinal taps? Huh?
Now it’s 72, I just saw the news, we been getting screwed
You diagnosed us with sphyilis and never even told us that we had it?
We’ve been human fucking guinea pigs for 40 years, how much you learn our tears? huh?
You had a treatment since the early 40s, penicillin? How fucked is this? What’s the ceiling? Oh, oh
I see the devil in you - used my desperation - to get ahead the group, right? Right
This was rooted in prejudice, add power, push a person to the precipice
It affected my wife, I’ma pray for my son, in hopes for a better life, yea
Man it’s shit like this, institutions doing wrong make us raise a fist

Oppression comes in many forms
Some don’t know that they living in it
Distracted by the skin and the gore
Let them see what we want, keep em living in it
The Devil’s living right next door
He’s got a list of names, and he’s drooling on it
Ya never know, he might pick yours
When things are looking up he’s gettin down on it
