Magic Word

You gonna light it
I’m gonna fight it
They gonna hide it
'cause they don’t know the word
You gonna leave it
I’m gonna steal it
They can’t believe it
'cause they don’t know the word
You gon' divide it
I done decided
Where they resided
Got the same dang word
You make the riot
Like or deny it
They gonna find it
'cause you don’t know the word
We got the world, world falling apart
With bombs on my right, but I’m alive
We got minutes, hours, days, or is it weeks?
To fix society from the society
But who’s the enemy?
I’ve heard it’s you, you’ve heard it’s me
It’s like a freight train off the rails
Or a pipeline of inactivity
Lies slide, which side you’re on?
You get a barrel in a corner or the wrong end of a loaded shotgun
But you can’t run
Part two of a war that was won
You gotta be thankful to be alive
We gave you that right
Fight or flight, the open scars inside are out of sight
And out of mind
