GHOSTS

Sam speaks of ghosts But we still feel the pulse White fear is crowned Taxing its public Removing action from its Subjects Thus Black boys to men Incorrectly sentenced To death Judge, Jury, & Defendants Carry the execution Blindfolded Bitch Can’t see the blood On her hands Justice says red is the only Hue that … Continue reading GHOSTS

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XykIswFgLpU&feature=kp Song: The Healer Artist: Erykah Badu Album: New Amerykah Notable Single: Honey Rap Genius: The Healer The Healer is a great one from Ms. Badu.
