GUN AND METAL
Taking life a pace at a time
without time for a new kind of luck
to make it to the end of the road
without being blown away from a truck
The police don’t know how to deal
with the works of the gun and metal
they only know how to defend themselves
and hold our lives in their hands
but do not see it as a right and wrong thing
it is about the work of society in making
it evil to be black and not white
like they are in the days when no one
could look at you, who could look and
not be feared but coppers and their knowledge
of the course of events in cells makes it
sure nuff the best place not to be.
