Waiting on Summer

I see the origins of sprirituality
Man look at sky
Man wonder why
He gotta die he gotta cry
Priest tells me imma fish fry
I sigh, collect my thoughts
Just a human being I kick rocks
 Down never ending streets
I breathe off slick rhymes and dope beats
Church on every block I see
A desperate spirituality
Searching for answers to unexplained cancers
Broken legs on dancers
Fast cars smash and clash twisted metal
Life slips through the fingers like a pedal
A holy book wielded by a well dressed crook
Diamond covered hands turn the pages
Feeding rages and has us
Accepting shitty wages
Holes in the walls
Rotten ronnie preaches to the nation
Fast food salvation

Eat it up eat it up
I got that crack snack
Wrapping all the answers in tin foil
I got those words that'll have you coming back
Here's a deal
Your soul for a value meal
Don't mind these gold teeth
Don't mind this painted face
I keep it real
