Catch 22

Black folks caught up in a catch 22

Damned if you don’t

And damned if you do

This is true

For me and for you

The less of two evils

Sometimes you gotta choose

Like you president

And yo residence

Some people dismiss they relatives

I say that’s no good

And you wish you could,

Run away from yourself

But even if you would

The man in the mirror

Will always be there

Yo big lips

Yo big nose

And yo kinky hair

So don’t let nobody fool you

Just so they can rule you

They aim to divide

Then commit genocide

Short term, long term

Black man what is yo plan?

Cause the truth of the matter

We was never ameriKKKan’s

Just chattel in the slave masters hands

To use and abuse

The time has come

And our destiny we must choose
