One casket
More bodies, two bags
Two more baggage
Three mamas, four mamas, more asking
Why the fuck they got their son a toe tag?
And why they gotta hand a rifle to their
son?
Extertimate the youth to see they pockets
get a bump
Flood the valley with narcotics, put you on
the hunt
A naava's either dead or left psychotic,
the system got us fucked
She looked me dead in my eye, tears
rolling on a face of mother in shock
Anticipating answers from me, howling at
the moon
I saw my mama in her spot
Imagining what could've been if that was
me who got dropped?
My body froze, I felt the woes seeping in
thru my bones
It grows on every glance I took at bro, a
bullet to the dome
I hold him close, I sense a cold air, that I'm
responsible
His bloody clothes gave me all the answer
I was looking for
Another naava with dreams trapped like a
caged bird
Either naava strapped or have the needle
pull each nerve
Ways to make that hov dolla eventually
get curbed
Then have you chasing every single
penny, any work
I lost my verbs, I couldn't mouth a thing,
I'm sorry for your lost, mama
I couldn't imagine how deep it cuts your
soul, mama
If there's a consolation, your son was the
bravest in every pack he roll with
Stood for the rights for the houmees
So I'm yelling fuck the government
How you make us fight a war
Next minute you abandoned us?
The blood on your hand is for my
bruddenem
Blood on your hand is for my brudda
If I can't hold it down
If I die tonight
If I'm gone, would you find, would you find
a way?
If I can't hold you tonight
Tell me would you find a way?
Baby can you find a way?
(Baby would you find a way?)
Tell me would you find a way?
(Tell me would you find a way?)
Baby can you find a way?
My naava call my line, he sounded real
distressful on the phone
Asking him what happened? I caught a
vibe telling me something's wrong
He like nah he aight, I'm like bet, i'mma
pick you up in 5
We from the same part of the city, Imphal
baby, 79
I Hopped in the whip, hit the road, that's
bloody
Stopped where the cop shot the kid,
that's a duckie
Pop out my head, out the window, em
police
I took the first left, now I'm parked at
homie's
We outside now, dot on the speakers, we
caught a vibe now
Hit the corner store for more papers,
smoking wild now
Loktak pat ta high now, asking if we really
butterfly?
Do God got us? We alright how?
Mentality of a young naava from the
valley
My naava loyal to the roots, so he be
fighting on the daily
His mind in the mud from every recoil
every gunshot
Every homie that's been dropped in this
decoy Meitei-Kuki
Institutionalized with a different
perspective of freedom and life
I saw my pops in him, they would slide for
the people
Lie for them, die young for the people,
eyes popped for their people
My naava told me he gon leave for war
tonight
He got a call this morning from the
headquarters, another fight
He probably won't be home for Emoinu
day
Hands folded, pray to God
Mans hoping he alright
Nah fuck being dead alive
Fuck all the police, fuck all the laws
Fuck the system they put naavas on drugs
Fuck corrupted news channels, piss on
your board
Fuck your party politics, you took my
dreams away bitch
What now?
Broke naava, got a daughter
No job, got no quarters
They done put a chain on my neck
Protecting the man that bought us
With every bark I make
It pulls me closer to the point I break
And put a bullet to the brain
Cobain go bang go bang
Playing bro
God gave me purpose, I'mma serve it wise
If I died protecting my people, I'mma do it
twice
And if the price of freedom for my people
is my life
My naava you'd see my dead body
Smiling looking at the sky
Tomorrow's not promised
My rap sheet stained, no way I'm sitting in
no office
This right here is my only purpose
So if I don't make the light
My naava put me in your verses
That would only do the justice
And tell the world the story of this
forbidden place
For every young naava with dreams
trapped with no escape
For every innocent eyes, this nation love
to discriminate
For every drop of indigenous blood that's
running in your veins
Two days later this conversation
My naava came back with his face
towards the constellation
Coffin full of dreams and regrets
His mama waiting
She draped in all white
Replaying the situation in her head
In disbelief of losing her only son
She witnessed his whole life to the very
last breath from the jump
I'm lost for words, so I wrote this one
For my brother and all the lives that fell
victim
To the needle and the gun
