For the Information Age
Global Hood News Report
In women’s beauty and cosmetic news
Not to be taken lightly
The rise in medical malpractise and
White market body injection
Instances continue
Scientists have also found the culprit in the
Newest cases of head cancer have
Been linked to the glue used in
The ever popular lace front wig
Also in sports, as a closing note to
The Olympic propaganda charade
Salute to the amazing African
Tracking field athletes
Some of who are forced to
Run under a colonial flag
Congratulations Mo Farad
A Somalian who’s gold was stolen
Once again by Great Britain
This Ime Oulu along with 90 Seas Way Informer
And this is the Global Hood News
Where there’s health neglect
There’s no self-respect
But what else you expect? Look
How they dealt the death
We inherited stress, had to bury our best
Martin, Malcolm X, bullet holes in they chest
We adapt to the struggle, only way we survive
Eating scraps from the table but
It kept us alive
Making something from nothing
Still we hope for the best
Making miracles happen
Daily coping with less
Scar string will ban ‘em
Scar string will ban ‘em
Scar string will ban ‘em
Raised in the ghetto
Singing songs – called survival
But eating soul food to have
You dead on arrival
Hand on the rifle, other hand on the bible
Strong as an ox but look at
What you put inside you
We resemble your things
Do the silliest things
No better than you better cause
That’s what experience brings
Break out of jail but can you
Break out a fascicle cell?
We say we living well, but we living in hell
We already been to the other side
We ain’t turning back, now we choose a lie
To really get by this, and that ain’t right
We feel it inside, it’s time to fight
We already been to the other side
We ain’t turning back, now we choose a lie
To really get by this, and that ain’t right
We feel it inside, it’s time to fight
We glues to the TV
Screen commercials in between
Crack Donalds, Murda King
What happened to eat your greens?
Eatin some or anything, abusing Mary Jane
Chinese chicken wings, everyday hood thing
5 hour energy, red bull and Hennessey
Head bobbin bot the organs full of toxicity
Pack a cool menthol, nicotine pick fall
They have the nerve to put cool on
The pack so they can trick y’all
Slave to the Dutch master
Colon cancer victim
Tell you want a package but
We still blame the system
No squares in my circle
Screw all that sippin purple
I’m tryina live to my potential
Age is just a number
A G preserve his temple
A G control his temper
No discipline, you slippin
No toxins in my kitchen
Slavery is over cousin
But then at lunch it wasn’t
If food is the last plantation
Then I’m Harriet Tubman advocating colonics
Saving my lungs from chronic
But, you can’t free a slave unless
He knows he’s in bondage
(You wanna get freaky? Let’s go)
You can’t free a slave unless
He knows he’s in bondage
