Cop City
Cop city ( in ATL)
There’s a state of emergency and it’s in cop city
Try and level the land and shoot protesters down
85 acres of beauty trees why would we
Flatten it out for the new world order
Police are the new military
In our community
Smoke bombs and pepper spray they
Gotta put em down
Can’t let the peasants gain the upper ground
Don’t know the heavy hand
is a losing proposition
Would think I’m talking about a far away land
But It’s in our backyard way
Down in Atlanta
Is it really 2023 I thought we would be
So advanced and free
Feels like going back in time
To a place we left in the
Dust bin of misery
I guess our dna takes us back to
Yesterday and
We can’t escape from our true
Cro Magnon Man
In this future time never thought I
Would go back and scrape my
Knuckles on the ground
Turns out I’m wrong and
It’s in our DNA
23 chromosomes each and from each other
Thought that Man would evolve further
It comes down to it and we revert back
To evolution
