"Pointing The Finger"
Written by Chi Money
way before the age of two we'd go through intervention
through moods of aggression, all we'd need to spoon wit a friend is
a way of pointing our fingers.. to recieve food and attention
new to the lessons.. finding truth in the legends, as true adolescents
father was too strict, offspring could never move fast enough
mother was too lenient, which then became used as a crutch
a child blames themselves, who's sharing half their features
as they're pointing out each other's flaws.. always staring at a finger
three stikes n yer out, so when human mistakes are to blame
and the man in uniform gives the signal.. you call foul play in the game
so we mimic legends like Babe Ruth and gesture to the fence
but aren't lookin to wear those pin stripes, n letters on our chest
the only time we really make a point of giving props
is when it's directed to the skies, to whoever's your living God
whether it's Allah, Jesus Christ, anything other then Lucifer
as he's only down to hide from being sunned by the universe
leaders point us in a direction, but when their actless quotes fail
they end up following.. YOU in, on your backs n coat-tails
breaking your back, for the money they back in wholesales
taxed n over packed in those jails, til we make a pact n prevail
so we don't trust the sytem, that we created n are livin under
somehow we lost the upper hand, even with the biggest numbers
countries reaching out to countries, mission isn't to see who's loyal
just to breech new soil, but not for land.. they need crude oil
to be obsolete constantly n keep their economy runnin
just to Rome as the first leader.. that Constantine wasn't
prophecies of monopolys that profit off alot of these drunkin
off the power of their philosophies, a bunch of Socrates buzzin
so unless cleaning up our act is our top responsibility
then testing our problems positively, is not a probability
so take your hands down, don't let them linger in despair
you can't hold it down for your beliefs wit your fingers in the air
just quit pointing, the world is in your hands to move
which you already knew..
when you followed the fingers, n they all lead back to you
...
