Abandoned.

The city is on fire.

All hail the gun; the God of murder

Poverty: the God of ignorance

Media: the God of misleading

The court room is the throne.

Every man of color who steps foot into the palace becomes incarcerated

Guilty, but never given the chance to prove his innocence

Chains on feet were unlocked, but evolved into chains on the mind

Self-enslavement is the highest form of ignorance,

the form they've adopted.

Society united against them

Divided, they are

Divided they fall.

Years of abandonment by a government that never intended their advancement...

no choice, they had

Crime, they resorted to.
