lirik lagu marlon craft – shithole
tell me what a sh-thole look like
is it a place built on the backs of enslaved people was taken from they people
by hate and deranged evil and greed and the need
to feel that we all not the same people where no one is made equal?/
tell me what a sh-thole look like, where we move heaven and earth/
for a couple of men’s net worth while we let our poor live in dirt/
where lies are national, fashionable trumps factual/
where we don’t know what just is, justice is laughable?/
tell me what a sh-thole look like
where you get famous for being famous we worship the mediocre
where bankers is playing poker with people’s futures with futures and leave them homeless
and our leaders save them and leave us broken/
is that what a sh-thole look like? where we send folks to die for courage and valor
in their mind but for real it be for the purses of power
and we proclaim that we k!ll to defend the people’s rights
but install dictators just for resources at cheaper price/
what a sh-thole look like? is it what the hood like?
where you could die any minute because of what you look like?
where children starving all cause of discrimination
in ghettos created by homeowners loan corporation/
was an agent of the government so, tell me what a sh-thole look like
is it a place where we exist cause the unforgivable
and walk around like if you not us we don’t want sit with you
where opinions with truth in them dismissed as hypercritical?/
tell me is a place a sh-thole
where we lock and abuse people and cage the soul out ’em based on a color skin tone
allow folks to make millions off their pain while they sit home
smiling, while babies crying cause they fathers ain’t never get home?/
i’m tryna imagine a sh-thole aesthetic..
is it where anyone with an amplified voice is prophetic?
where people who gave their lives for freedom go unknown
but we deify people who make phones?/
tell me, when our president called black countries a sh-thole
was i mad because that’s racist to say?
and i know its wrong but deep down i be thinking the same?
and i would’ve said it to a neighbor over a brew and a j?/
like do i know why wrong things are wrong?
do i accept my many privileges, and the role that i play when i play along?/
do i want a pat on the back for basic humanity?/
would i still be righteous in the face of calamity?/
tell me what makes a sh-thole? i think i live in one/
am i ready for it to change ‘fore i get my livin’ done?/
this ain’t a riddle son these are the simplest questions/
if i knew i’s making a sh-thole would i switch professions?/
how we make a sh-thole on land that was never ours/
then puff our chest out with no shame bout how we get the power?/
create a monster the surest way to get devoured/
homie look around you, a mu’f-ckin sh-thole
