Illiterate imbeciles walking behind selfish puppets
Planting seeds of destruction within the mentality of tomorrows’ world
Destroying dreams and creating nightmares in the minds of our creations 
Becoming artist creating masterpieces of mental annihilation
Painting pictures of a cosmetic appearance to a poverty stricken life 
Spreading propaganda through the ghetto like an epidemic 
Placing rivers of ignorance 
mountains of struggle 
in the walking paths of death 
You see those ordained by corporate America 
Become propagandist injecting the virus of defeat 
Infiltrating the emotional battlefield of life
Receiving little resistance from those sicken by the disease of illiteracy 
Opening books with no pages 
Graduating schools with no diplomas 
Drinking from fountains of blood 
Left by the youth who lie breathless in a corrupt system
Releasing screams from collapse lungs 
Speaking words of pain from lips placed on mute
The law of the land says “Freedom of Speech”
But no one listens when you are infected with the disease “black”
Slowly becoming disfigured and displaced
Yet we have the audacity to call it a generational curse.
