Not my favourites of all time by any means but just some random verses that i like.

Quote:

I had a lot a questions;
I asked the devil to explain
Why I always think that people have it in for me?
And why I always feel like the sky’s closing in on me?
This is what he said,
“The sky’s not falling it’s just angels committing suicide,
Cos they’re so saddened by humans using genocide,
As a political tool, considering all you humans have,
The way you act belittles you all,
Now hell is so full that we started expanding,
Damnation is a business and the markets demanding.”
I asked him if the city streets buckled and cracked,
And hell rose to earth then would heaven collapse?
He smiled; I knew that smile was his response,
I thought to myself, he’s almost got what he wants,
He said “I’ll tell you my one desire,
That’s for earth itself to become my empire,
Every politicians like a gun for hire.
Even the church of nativity’s come under fire,
So you can tell I’m getting close to my goal,
Of creating a world where I can torture every soul

Quote:

All it took was one in a trillion
In a world where they're gunning civilians
Where conspiracies just drop on us like plummeting buildings
Government villains at night, we are renegades who fight
Under a pilgrims plight for a better way of life
See we sail the seas with a sun stained atlas
To escape the day to day mental mundane madness
That consumes us, it's true, though my real answer lays
Is stepping back to view life's real grand Monet
But crucial issues are lost in this crazy worlds wealth
How can lust for bucks outweigh one baby girl's health?
Through the cyclone we hit the Third World and found heroes
With nothing but still everything, smiling at ground zero

So let the bullets in the air turn to raining rose petals
That covers the Earth's surface while the children throw pebbles
From dreams to themes, to a crack in the concrete
From a seed to a tree, I make it happen at God speed
Whatever happened to increase the peace
Fight the power for people to defeat the beast
Well it's right here, it's right now
It's anything I plan
It's a poem that proves a point
It's everything I am
So on a rainy day I made my way
To the promised land and back
And now it's safe to say in a crazy way
This song is where it's at
It's equal verse what wasn't given
Teachers verse the problem children
Evil verse the honest living
People verse the politicians

Quote:

It’s the contemporary form of slavery, they call it slave labour
But they don’t prosecute them cuz it’s how they make paper
When you rocking that fly **** that’s made in China
By an eight year old child tryna feed his mama
He exposed to contamination and disease
And only fifty-five percent of them will get degrees
And the women have to try to placate the boss
Because it’s sex discrimination in the labour force
The slave master only let them speak in sign language
And they’re suffering from lung disease and eye damage
fourteen hour shifts, seven days a week
two ****ty meals a day, very little sleep
Human life only worth three cents an hour
All human right laws loose sense of power
What did four hundred years in the grave passes?
Only the improved cleverness of slave masters.
