the rhyme i mentioned last entry
written to cannibal ox's song called pigeon. kinda in the same vein also. i was feelin really depressed that day...
let Nas know I feel im cuz the isolation killin/
me and misery dance together and he get the top billin/
feelin's revealin the villainous thoughts and motivation/
that could get a man cryin cuz he feel the seperation/
...from family, friends, home-land, girl/
so he fends for himself in this black-white world/
think u made it but ya brother still lyin in the gutter/
african-americans drive-by ig'nant muthafuckas/
got the tunnel-vision...focus sharp like stilettos/
where I live, to get downtown, gotta go thru the ghetto/
but I see it where I live M-S-U-know!/
where 3rd-year freshman skip class to pull hoes/
tutors is bored, cuz nobody wants help/
but by the time i graduate, how many classmates left?/
piss away student loans cuz u wanna play spades/
blame mean teachers wit accents for ya wack-ass grades/
700 pay tuition, how many get degrees?/
my window to the world, 3 eyes thru which I see/
the effects of a nonviolent persuasive genocide/
the more I read, the more I see, my goal is to die/
sorry but its hard to see a purpose thru the madness/
and angel sounds better than being a black bastard/
the black man's burden: to ascend, in addition/
gotta pull my niggas up, meanwhile I'm just a pigeon/
trynna fly...
btw does neone have the pigeon instrumental? i wanna record this on that beat.
