Lyrics

You say you see no evil, hear no evil, say no evil
So what's up with all these fools out here doing evil?
Realities are coming off way too abstract
Death without reason, yo, delete all that
Cause some take the heartbeat as a grain of salt
Got in for the ride of self-inflicted genocide
The sky's the limit, just you gotta stay paid
But your money's made pushing pharmaceutical lemonade
You got the young bucks bucking nines pushing rocks
They pumping Glocks, talking 'bout "I gotta get mine"
But what they ever really get is doing time from behind
Now they taught the cell block religion of the blind
I got to magnify the issues that hit you
And thermal abstract subliminals is out to get you
Cause you sipping from the vine of the fool promising sunshine
They got your future laced with strychnine
(X2)
Abstract reality, it's a formality to some
To some, it's just their reality
If your reality is abstract, son
I suggest you bail, and get yourself another one
Undeniably, people are getting ill with this abstract real
Who broke the seal, it gives my spine a chill
To think your moms can shoot you back, take your loot
Buy some rocks, go to your funeral and get booted
She drinks the fluid in your veins where the blood once was
She does it all the time so all she got was a buzz
Your little sister's on the corner making fiends paying bills
And your poppa's always paying for the thrills
I saw a lion eat her cubs cause they was male
I watched a mother throw her baby in a garbage pail
Jeffrey Dahmer's got the cure for the economy
Spit it around Pete and save some dark meat for the streets
Crippled brothers dripping blood, folks and cuz
What is was, you warring with your love cuz
Another baby flies through a glass window
Abortion crescendos, I don't know who's in sin, no
Is it the murderer, the hooker or the preacher?
The teacher, the deed or is it simply what they teach ya?
I think Marvin said it best
Right before his Pentecostal pops shot his chest
"What's going on?" It ain't funny no more, my head is sore
I walk the floor, yo, there's too many wars
America the beautiful, the land of the free
The richest nation in the world and
Tell me why there's so much poverty?
Got the nation on her knees
Yet we're seeing twenty billion dollars overseas, please
I wanna know what to tell Mr. Ellis
On the corner with a college degree trying to eat
(X2)
Abstract reality, it's a formality to some
To some, it's just their reality
If your reality is abstract, son
I suggest you bail, and get yourself another one
Psychological socio-ghetto-pathic
Abstract realities is getting real graphic
Death toll rise, ignorance in high doses
Malnutrition of the mind is the diagnosis
Prognosis, people die for lack of truth
Rehearse the curse that we picked up from our youth
You try to substitute the real for the counterfeit
Cause you believe 'em when they say your future ain't legit
You gotta take a toke of this reality I'm pushing
No additives or preservatives, ain't nothing missing
I'm talking all natural, almighty God nothing less
What's the verdict, people? No contest
So meet your maker while you're living
Cause ain't no future in your fronting
Time out for all of that living
Cause you deserve a better way, cause what you do today
Determine if tomorrow you just fade away
(X4)
Abstract reality, it's a formality to some
To some, it's just their reality
If your reality is abstract, son
I suggest you bail, and get yourself another one
