Woe to these fences caging, we raging, us let us free. Personalities crash and theories collide masculinity gets confused with ego and pride. Check ins, crash outs, and fake suicide I'm not Maya Angelo but still I rise, but still I rise. Look into these eyes, there is no we in this team just so many I's, why can't we have a dream? Behind these fences Our thoughts get like the thickest fog, unable to see mountains Actions flow like water, subconscious orders make the heart beat faster sorta like a computer without a user, knowledgeable hoarder Brain teaser crowd pleaser, can we cross the border? Black Islamic immigrants or terrorist for ya Death to the infidels, not Isis, that's American lawyers Behind these fences When it comes to minorities, they legalized slavery Slavery is existent for all of us within We are dead and dying slaves seeking freedom once again Who will make amends for the 13th amend? I've done a crime so my life is not mine, beginning to end locked down in our lockdown, these gates designed only to let us in The Hole programming us to fear but need segregation Behind these fences Sleep counted; eat, play, counted; eat, sleep, repeat a bunk and a number become a tomb and a tombstone What was made to be temporary has become our permanent home Behind these fences.
