Just a little something i whipped up with the help of teardesa, and i decided to use it for a spontaneous rap that was inspired by a short on 60 minutes.

me and desa are probably gonna do a colab with a version of that beat, so i'll post the beat then, however if you want to use it just fire me a message and i'll send it to ya.

Lyrics:

and here i stand, amazed while i'm watching the report
on the tv telling of the homeless, listening to the retort
of the occupy movement throwin themselves into the fray
and see that I should be helping fight for a better day

in florida, almost one in four kids are homeless,
but they don't give in  they ain't sob stories hopeless
their parents press in on trying to get the a future
their dreams and hopes they try to nurture

the corporations don't care, they just people who can't pay
they buy out politicians so they can get their way
they lower the wages, raise the loans and rent
the people responsible ain't got no way to repent

take up some of you dollar give it away to those who need it
the charities holla, they don't got enough to feed
the people asking for help on the other side of locked doors
funding cut by a politician by a corporate whore

the legalized theft of billions in debt money
a bit from a man trying to buy a ring  for his honey
to show her he loves him he asks them in trust
then they overcharge him with their hidden interest

I see families liven in cars trying to lead normal lives
i hear of a man found frozen, no hope in his eyes
those of you who have chosen these people to dispise
can all go burn in hell, where they'll remove  your gilded disguise

now i leave you with a message straight from my soul
make betterment of your fellow man your only goal
tear down the walls that society has placed
only when you do this can you win life's race
