Heat To Beat The Cold
Everyday they convey another shooting spree
So I contemplate if I should keep my heat on me
Cause all I can see is a world getting colder
Maybe it's beauty in the eyes of the beholder
The smolder is choking me like Floyd by Chauvin
Demise before my eyes as more lives come to an end
Not going to spend my remaining days living in fear
A change ain't gon' come and that's become abundantly clear
I'm just trying to steer clear of the clear & present danger
Going on everywhere that there's uncontained anger
A complete stranger might aim his banger in my direction
Only he that's above me can condemn me for using my protection

Hope for the best
Be prepared for the worst
Be polite
But have a plan to take down everyone in the room

It's scary to think that those who are supposed to protect us are the ones that harm and kill. I'm all for protecting yourself and what's yours. You're right, if it hasn't changed in the last 50 years what's going to change in the next few. There is much corruption from top to bottom.
Be safe out there.
Be safe out there.
