Cowards

(album: RZA Presents: Bobby Digital And The Pit Of Snakes - 2022)

Protected women of color
I've discovered
A fiendish plot of the micro-dots
That has to be uncovered
The truth has been smothered
About the queens who mothered

Every form that's physical
They try to instill those signals
Programmed the umbilical
Modify the biological
And dispose with the spiritual
I travel through digital

Appear in the spacial spectrum
Of your prism
But I appear with rhythm
I move with that momentum
Born to deliver justice
To the untamable criminal
He will not be forgiven
How dare you attack my system
How dare you attack my wisdom
Tryna ransack my system
Attacking my women and children?

Hourly as I fight to refrain
I will wait down by the train
Cowardly, I go through

It never really occurred to me
That this could be the path for me
I want to know
But lie to me, lie to me, lie to me, lie to me

I took a life like me today
The kiss of six I let astray
Don't want to be
It's not hard to see
I'm guilty
I killed him naturally

Ado to you, I bid ado to you

Carry me out
I was wrong
Such a disaster
What a poor bastard
Naturally, I'm through

It's clear to me, that I will be too late
Tell me why I advocate
The things that now I've come to hate
I want to try
Over and over I swear to myself I will die

Oh, God, why?

Cowardly
We've wrongly been facing reality
Living the lies
And we won't fight for right
We cowardly
Take the shortcut and
Cut throat our own
But how can we
Be who we say that we are when we live our lives cowardly?
