.:Holy Cost (What The LORD Allows):.

Did Mama get bullied cause she weren�t his cow?
Did Daddy get pimped cause he weren�t his pal?
Did things run amuck that The LORD allowed?
Too many Devils; each of �em foul

Though before The Middle Passage allot went wild

Slavery�s Lawless Order but a single file
From �cane through to cotton to shuffling �cross tile
Kidnap Business?
It�s a whole ~nut~her~style

Folk as buy products;
They been bought for a while
Those bids on the grid kept folk in a pile
See for yourself; it ain�t been fine

Few billion heads and still doing time

Who remembers best? Remembers it foul
Each devilish beast gets to feast on the crowd
As Millennial Hucksters keep blasting it loud

So the holy cost; goes round & round

Quite the senseless how we still get down
How every other hue~man smiles with a frown
The cruelest clich� and it�s still around

While correction only matters when the
lost gets found.
