Illusion No. 55

Poem about the society, the world we live in…
Stop stop please stop the killing
Do you know how many people are not willing
Everytime you turn around someone's being shot
By another nigga cause he ain’t got what he got

Stop stop! Please stop the killing
Do you know how many people are not willing
To stop the violence and increase the peace
To stop the killing of our enemies

But do you want to know why?
Is it because they are too afraid to fight back
Without the use of knives
Is it because they are too afraid to truly
Stand up for what's right
