Hell, why wouldn't I just Show you the song?

Humans are Bigger than they're suppose to Be.

An excerp from a beautifully written song. i keep this part around me all the time, and i like speaking it to others and try to enlighten them. haha. the underground hip hop artists Zion i and the Grouch just say what i've always wanted to say to the people in my generation. And i just want to thank them. [:

Bad Lands by Zion i and The Grouch

..[BadLands]This is a place where babies are hooked on drugs

Before they see the light of day
A land where doctors'll necessarily cut them out their mothers' stomachs
Just to make more pay
Their fathers run away
Consumed with the most ignorant shit you can think of
Cuz it's been dangled in front their faces like a carrot to an ass
But still they know better, they're just too scared to be outcasts
It ain't about past; let's talk present and future
Fuck presidents, what do you do with your power, your control?
Control yourself
Going dumb's not really a movement, you're really going dumb
Look at the shit they play on the radio
And got the nerve to wonder why rappers keep dying in the streets
Stop putting 2pac and Biggie on magazines until you understand the significance of why they died
Don't ya'll get it? Humans are bigger than they're supposed to be
Check yourself before you come out the house holdin' a piece,
Runnin' off at the mouth, sayin' trendy shit like “yes sir” and “ye ye”
Like it's the only thing you know
Yea, that shit is fun but don't let it be the only thing you know
Ultimately, it won't get you anywhere and trying to get out of here
Leave these bad lands behind, get in touch with my spirit, my body, and mind
Cuz I'm divine
And if no one ever told you you were, well you are

And that's it.

"Trapped in a History We don't understand" -Brother Ali

It's funny. the way we grow up. How everything you saw, you remember thinking it was ok. or not even think about it once BECAUSE its ok. I remember in elementary school realizing that alcohol is bad. its bad for you, for your kids, bad for everyone. And because my dad drank, i figured- well, he's my dad. so its not a drug. its not bad. he wouldnt do something bad in front of me. hah. kids. now that I'm older, i've changed to thinking- well, he's my dad. it is bad, and i don't understand why he's doing it.. it's gotten far even for me to think that I hate him. And I shouldn't. I don't know if it's because I'm an adolescent and everything he happens to say is irritating or if it's honestly because i don't like the man. i try taking my mind to thinking things like "imagining me at his funeral.. would i cry?" and of course i would, it just reminds me that i do care for him. but the thing is, why do i have to think dark things like that to remind myself that i do love him. i honestly forget. because of what he does, and what he's done. i try to forgive and forget, but fuck it. "We're trapped in a history we don't understand" -Brother Ali. yes, he took the words right outta my mouth.
