Apathy

Apathy - Slave lyrics

rate me

Stay strong, stay brave, cradle to the grave

I be splitting like a run-away slave

Since back in the days been trapped in the maze

Now I'm splitting like a run-away slave

I come from the future where the people ain't free

Brainwaves get programmed quicker than circuitry

Certainly this'll make for the perfect story

My microchip a mental blip when they searching for me

They'll probably shoot me in the head but won't hurt my shortie

Cause that's one less person could be working for free

If I go out in a blaze, is it worth the glory?

Is this Heaven or Hell or just purgatory?

I got a number not a name and my mother is the same

No free thoughts, I'm taught to keep nothing in my brain

But the people as a whole, no me, only we

And it's deep within my soul so I'll never be free

When I fight it they don't like it so they send a psychic

To dismantle my mind and rewrite it

It backfired cause they ain't as clever as me

I fight to the death even though I'll never be free

Cause the police police run my brain

Hear em talking in my head and I'm going insane

Things are so fucked up, it'll never be the same

So welcome to the future, ain't you glad you came?

I'm ashamed that my ancestors got so afraid of shit

They let the government wise and form a dictatorship

Working to make the rich richer really make me sick

Economically they got the poor on a slave ship

You see I come from the past where I'm paid for with cash

Slave master whoop my ass if work not done fast

Now how the fuck I end up like this?

From living life in my hut with my wife and my kids

Now I'm stuck chained up from my legs to my wrists

On a trip on a ship and the ocean getting motion sick

Praying at the same place I eat and piss

Fuck the saying, I'm really knee-deep in shit now

I'm on a foreign land no longer considered a man

My life stands and any plans the white man commands

We're so damned our minds are programmed

Ain't no if, buts, or I can't, or force their hand

Cause of my race I'm deeply hated for living

But got a lot of love when they're taking and raping our women

My life crazy, it really feel like Christ hate me

I stare at the white lady too long they might hang me

Treated so harsh cause my skin's so dark

Everything so hard, I'm protected by no laws

Life full of bullshit, if I try to flip

I'll probably get lynched or body ripped by a bullwhip

My peoples faced with the same shit for generations

So people breed their seeds off deep hatred
