Intro: verse 1 Black rage is founded on two-thirds a person Raping and beatings and suffering that worsens Black human packages tied up in strings Black rage can come from all these kinds of things. Black rage is founded on blatant denial, sweet economics, subsistent survival, deafening silence and social control, black rage is found in all forms in the soul, When the dog bites, when the bee stings, when I’m feeling sad, I simply remember all these kinds of things, and then I don’t fear so bad verse 2 Black rage is founded who fed us self hatred Lies and abuse while we waited and waited Spiritual treason This grid and it's cages Black rage was founded on these kinds of things Black rage is founded on dreaming and draining Threatening your freedom To stop your complaining Poisoning your water While they say it's raining Then call you mad for complaining, complaining Old time bureaucracy Drugging the youth Black rage is founded on blocking the truth Murder and crime Compromise and distortion Sacrifice, sacrifice Who makes this fortune? Greed, falsely called progress Such human contortion Black rage is founded on these kinds of things When the dog bites, when the bee stings, when I’m feeling sad, I simply remember all these kinds of things, and then I don’t fear so bad
