Hock a Loogie
take the boards off the community
no holds barred bring back unity
sanity in the shanty more legal goods
in the hoods some fresh fruit in our stores
would do us a world of good
more concrete on the streets too much
glass under a child's feet
stop eating chicken from the China man
I keep telling you
"THAT AIN'T NO CHICKEN MAN"
tear down these walls they're hindering
every body's not a crook you'd know that
if you took a closer look
too busy walking by with discuss
in your eyes just open your eyes
before you imply feeling your mind
with all the lies Jesus knows why babies cry
I hate roaches more than flies still I hate
flies and dilapidated firebombed buildings
caved in roofs that families use to
reside under don't blame it on the weather
it never rained nobody heard thunder
who was ever given their just due
Ha, guess who, just you
no need to wonder why we don't trust you
the wealth was stolen from us
why should we say thank you
just be honest who's grateful
for bondage from flying first class
to being treated like the worse class
looking out of the window at
our shadows walking on broken glass
we are tired of being treated like
we are worthless those who disagree
need not apply, do not reply
skip this or just walk on by
alive and feeling earth less
how can you unearth
that which came from the dirt
coexisting on a birth list
I see a bug I'm gone squash it
not famous enough to be taken hostage
still a name on a watch list
never stutter never lisp
never feared a Blood nor a Crip
brothers, sisters my people
my equal can't afford to fear
my own people
mastered breaking my fall
in case I slip in my own spit
