Slam !


Where does it all begin?
Discrimination of gender back ground and skin
As mature we are categorised
Some are victims left vandalised
It is shaping, it is moulding
With other’s its simply controlling
In this idealistic slam
I question the priorities of man, woman
Listen in this is point blank poetry
About the infrastructure the pretence in our society

To cool to dance adopt the stance
Menace in a glance
I feel the vibes, your eyes, your eye’s
The macho lies you hide behind
It’s not that you’re a man
You’re just as much as any man
But your fighting fights, it’s head to head, toe to toe
Prestige and power 
It’s the male ego 
Slam !

And you, supermodel 
You posture and you pout
Do you really represent the woman you are
Up on that cat walk, no not by far
Your honey dripping sweet, that’s all you are
Titillation for the genitaliare 
Design of nothing
Design of nowhere
Designed for man, woman
Designer slam!

What light’s your fuse?
You “wanna be” faces in the news  upon the TV, the radio interviews
Wear designer clothes, the Rolex watch, drive convertible BMW’S
These are materialistic views
For there is profit, there is gain
In a motif of someone’s name
Are we nothing to our self’s without fortune or fame
Its consumer exploitation

Its money
It affects us all
Corrupts are lives enslaves are minds
A better alternative we need to find
Better to barter than to buy
For money can burn fortunes are lost
But common sense and sharing it can’t bought
It has no cost
Money slam!

In this system that we’ve devised
We need possessions to stay alive
We roam free but remain controlled
Were being bought, were being sold
Manufactured, produced, assembly lined, manufactured
As goods we malfunction
Time after time
Processing of man, woman
Processing slam!

Listen !  false learning’s corrupt, ignorance obstructs
Education is salivation but the school have over population
Can not focus or concentrate
Become victims within the state
Institutionalised from sixteen to sixty
Reform, conform, brutalised
Respect your fellow moneyman, woman
It’s punishing without the correct information
For knowledge is a tool of liberation of the mind
I say knowledge is a tool of liberation of the mind
Knowledge is a tool of liberation of the mind

Slam the infrastructure
Slam what corrupts you
Slam! Slam! Slam! Slam!
Slam! Slam! SLAM!
