Eracism

Illuminate


[Intro monologue]
[Illuminate]
Before we went on that Pray for my Hood tour man, my eyes wuzn't really open to everything that's going on right now. But from all of you giving me the game and by us being discriminated against, by me being the only one that was not African American in the circle and seein' how we wasn't seated properly, seein' how people was discriminatin', and seein' how there was jus'... immediate judgment, God really opened my eyes to racism that's really alive right now, today. And as yo' brotha in Christ, I make a vow to stand with y'all to fight this thing, so let's erase this racism
(Amen)
(That's true)
(Straight up)

Intro
[Illuminate]
I know that this is a real sensitive subject
And you might not even think that I shouldn't speak on it
So whenever God reveals something to me
We gotta do somethin' about it
Let's erase it

[Illuminate]
I'm seein' the oppression of the people some police
Ain't even legal
But they got the public scared
To go an' shout it from the steeple
I'ma go an' say it
Coz I can no longer take it
I've been known to cross the states
And I've witnessed that racial hatred
You can can go and hate it
You can choose to embrace it
It's rippin' my heart
Naked
Coz the topic here is sacred
And it's clear facts
But this world ain't tryna hear facts
The Masons and the Klan is cliqued up tryna kill blacks
They keepin' us enslaved
But now it's mentally--got us caged up
An' it's been that way for centuries
Modern-day plantations of these mental penitentiaries
The way this world is turnin' ain't never how it was meant to be
Go back to Genesis
Check out the arch-nemesis
He robs us of our peace but he never replenishes
He's the father of every lie in the world
And that darkness comin' at us
Is disguised as a pearl
So pay attention
