Reality Of Our Society

There's so many distractions In this world so I'll just get straight to the point we Live in a country where you get locked up for a joint. Two states away and you can buy one at a dispensary. That shit just doesn't make sense to me. Locked up in prison for a sack of weed Then the guards hold you down until you can't breathe. Dead on their watch and the media manipulates Non violent offender but just look at her race African American up to no good, Had it coming since the day she left the hood. Don't you see what this means Government is keeping people in poverty with no means to survive planting drugs in the streets then poppin them for trying to get their family out of the ghetto.. Now I may be part Latino but my skin is pretty light, I grew up white privileged but I don't turn a blind eye to the shit that's going on 
people getting shot for looking at the cops wrong Judges getting paid off sending people to prison 
So the corporations profit Off of our imprisonment. Mass incarceration In the land of the free Where you get locked up for growing a Certain tree. I don't know about you but that doesn't sit well with me and this ain't even about weed. It goes so much deeper Corporate greed has turned institutional racism Into a means for making money while thousands are starving and going to sleep hungry. It's easier to look away and pretend it's all right, But sometimes what's easy isn't always what's right. Now don't get me wrong I'm grateful to live here I've got so many opportunities that others don't have and I'm honestly really glad that I get the opportunity to use that 1st amendment right to fight for justice in this corrupt mess. I can no longer wait for someone else to do it. My heart can't take another unjust ruling. The system is corrupt so it's time to rise up It's easier to look away and pretend it's all okay. But sometimes what's easy isn't always what's right. Sometimes you stand up to fight that good fight cause it's our brothers and sisters in the streets gettin killed and the corporate tax breaks that's what gets wall streets pockets filled pay their way out of prison Judges make their decision based off wealth and status White, black or Hispanic Its tragic the way things have gotten out of hand 
But I gotta keep my head up It's all a part of the plan I won't sit back and fall silent but I pray each day that we stop resorting to violence I give thanks for this life Cause We are all pure at heart and some of us are misguided but we are here to show the world that we are weak when we're divided Stronger together working as a family For one common goal Justice, liberation, equality For all.
