[Verse 1 Raheem] This species went extinct in the night When a rock hit like a meteorite But when the powder flared with the power scarce These people couldnt even dream of a light But it was all good cause it was bringing the ice And it was bringing the fur, and it was sleek. It was nice And in a generation the state it generated Made complacent people who were thinking it right But when a peoples environment sinks in the mind It brings identity, and it can be a beacon of pride But when that beacon is fire and the people are coldblooded The people will die, or theyll flee, but theres no other Belief in a life under the screen theyre thrown under Believe otherwise, and youll see that a whole other Position is presented when that fight or flight Kicks in. Freeze. Another life ended In the blink of an eye Youll be cheated in death like you were cheated in life You cant say more, but cest la vie From the day youre born to the day yall leave Itll be the same war and the same IDs Dog tags that hang from all the remains I see And thats a birth certificate conferred with limits and Incurring cents that add up to the millions Billions, trillions, maybe even more And you still get chilled and made into a form That appeals to children studying the past like The epidemic isnt something that would last Youre an exhibit of tears. Simple and clear Sympathy porn to pop up and to give an appearance Quick. Never to protest. Never to interfere To make things seem tense when the tense isnt here
