Khriiistos Arcana - Warfare Lyrics




Another brother died in a homicide
Another family mourns, a fatherless child
Too young to know the loss in his mothers soul
Naive to the misery that the future holds
Hearts turned to stone cause they sibling never got to grow
Losing hope for tomorrow's clutching on 44's
So now it's beg or borrow ain't no pops there
Greatly increasing the chances he'll hustle rock here

Nobody really cares at least it seem not
Adding insult to injury with their cheap shots
Fox News, CNN, plus the street cops, calling us thugs
For speaking up with the have nots
Still got the target of they barrel on the black male
Prison industrial complex the new slave sales
Don't let me see you cry so said the old heads
Tryna double up a dolla outta no bread got us...

Fighting back tears thru a forced a smile
Staring at phone with no one to dial
Lord tell me where the love go
In this world where the poor suffer with no hope

Still standing strong in the belly of this Babylon
In the city tryna find the strength to carry on
What used the be the soul you'll find a ghost there
In the streets you'll find the victims of this warfare

They say when the rainstorms come
The love pours down through the pouring rain
And then when the sunshine comes
We all still grow so it's all gone change

Still standing strong in the belly of this Babylon
In the city tryna find the strength to carry on
What used the be the soul you'll find a ghost there
In the streets you'll find the victims of this warfare

Praying for a change, through the hurt and pain
Murals full of names of our brothers slain
Tryna wrap our brains around the many graves
Of children taught that murdering was the only way

Still got obituaries stacking up like decks of cards
Card stacked against black skin since civil war
They say it's in the past we shouldn't go there
But our community still broke with no hope there

Lord tell us where to go down this broken road
Where niggas sell they soul for a pot of gold
What good to gain the world for an empty hole
But it was hustle or starve he felt he had to fold

Tears in his heart but in his eyes they'll never show
The struggle fought to survive starting to take its toll
Don't let em see you cry that's his pops said
On bottle as he swallowed with his eyes red, He was...

Fighting back tears through a forced a smile
Staring at phone with no one to dial
Lord tell me where the love go
In this world where the poor suffer with no hope

Still standing strong in the belly of this Babylon
In the city tryna find the strength to carry on
What used the be the soul you'll find a ghost there
In the streets, you'll find the victims of this warfare

They say when the rainstorms come
The love pours down through the pouring rain
And then when the sunshine comes
We all still grow so it's all gone change

Still standing strong in the belly of this Babylon
In the city tryna find the strength to carry on
What used the be the soul you'll find a ghost there
In the streets you'll find the victims of this warfare
