Lyrics

Judging generations
Hating at the speed of light
What my grandfather seen was a fright
Should I blame all of you who don't look just like me
Talk just like me, walk like me
For your associations and bloodliness

To the droppers of lighting
Burn up the treaty unwritten
Past forgiven
Now ask their children are we cool?
Or are we still wearing the same shoes
As I bop my head to today's news
Changed views, strange clues millennium cues
Invade the minds of us
Struggle to push thought thru
From behind the rush of krush grooves
Right now I speak with you
All new thought starts with few
And spreads itself like flu
To those receptive to
New versions of the truth
Right now I give just one to you

Anyone can say anything and confuse it
What would you really say facing the music
Pinned down no choice to make we are the bruises
The world's changing it's face thru music

Judging generations
Misunderstandings
Criminals demanding to keep people in cages
From slavery to cocaine bids
I said criminal, subliminal society
What I speak when I say that might surprise thee
I mean the power people beyond the reach of
Life's coliseum-like fight to the death mentality
(Learning that) same rule applies
Corporate jails make cash from your deflated sails
If you can't afford to post bail
Stock options rise if poverty helps you fail
We're not far from having someone we're forced to hail
And that would be a living hell

Judging generations
Realize you can flip your thoughts
In 30 years sons and daughter might feel lost
If they played this back
The same way shame grabs you
Drop of a hat
If I mention a cruel fact
Now you know you can fight back
You could do it out of respect
Keep our past in check
Bull-heading to the future, find sutures
The world's a gaping wound we're the losers
Sooner or later drop death on neighbors
Our saviors are ourselves
I can't hate you we share the earth
I need you, you need me
Otherwise we're casualties
Dinosaurs part two
Tragedy
