Wastelands

This is war with no weapons

marching with no stepping

Murder with no killing

illing every direction

First

no sequel

do the math

no equal

John with no Yoko; more power

less people

And no

I'm not afraid of that

print it in your paperback

Every rap is made in fact to act as a delayed attack

Every phrase a razor blade that's saved until they play it back

To slay and leave 'em laying on the pavement

bang

fade to black

In the wastelands of today

When there's nothing left to lose

And there's nothing more to take

But you force yourself to choose

In the wastelands of today

Where tomorrow disappears

While the future slips away

And your hope turns into fear

In the wastelands of today

Roll credits

you get it

the show is done

They're talking for just talking

but meaning

they got none

None of 'em come proper

they talk like a shotgun

But how many got bred with integrity? Not one

So no

I'm not afraid to see you suckers hold a blade to me

Ain't no way to shake the ground I built before you came to be

Take it how you take it

I'm the opposite of vacancy

And this is not negotiation

y'all can hate and wait and see

In the wastelands of today

When there's nothing left to lose

And there's nothing more to take

But you force yourself to choose

In the wastelands of today

Where tomorrow disappears

While the future slips away

And your hope turns into fear

And your hope turns into fear

In the wastelands of today

In the wastelands of today

When there's nothing left to lose

And there's nothing more to take

But you force yourself to choose

In the wastelands of today

Where tomorrow disappears

While the future slips away

And your hope turns into fear

And your hope turns into fear

In the wastelands of today

In the wastelands of today

In the wastelands of today
