Lyrics:
Oh, when the going gets hard,
Run, baby boy, just run
Run, baby girl, just run
Society of the spectacle
Empathy’s in mayhem
Negritude’s my latitude, Cesairé writes how the heart sways
Smudged root, slow dance through mud, terrain, the growth phase
Epiphany of the wound will slash your mask thru it’s ribcage
‘Pac Shakur, better dayz
Under the veil of life, our withered souls in exchange
We in dire times
Tug of war, our mind’s dominion
Sovereignty of spirit
Tippy toed from Lenox Ave to Bamako in yearn for wisdom
Ancestors court side, panopticon of my indecisions
I eased on down forbidden roads, will they recognize my face?
Until it’s time for heaven’s gates
Silk of my father’s strength, crickets from my mama’s land
The moonlight ricochets
Was the voyage worth the blur?
That question haunts a long verse
