Where I'm from materialism controls the masses
The pursuit of cash holds the madness together
The flock migrates to the sadness in all seasons
the ignorance flows through these bad lands
Trees of violence lay shade over the blocks
Tears fall freely like spring rains
flowers bloom through the blood stained pavement
Red rivers flow through my city from the love of green
cries muffled through project walls
where dreams stall and fall like Autumn leaves
just like those people's real colors show in the cold
i see through the clouds of their facades
looking for the sun in dark souls
often found no light
In a place where they put profit over people
and finance over family i cling to my sanity
