Analysis of THE WHITE MAN



 Even after all the
misogyny,
  That shit with
Monica Lewinski.

Homophobia and
No abortion.
  Congress and
Political extortion.

Too much racism,
And white-supremacy.
  All the bullshit lies
And no transparency.

Women's rights are
Being abused.
  Why are you smiling?
You look amused.

We can't forget about
The slave's
   Here in the land of the free,
 home of the brave.

The slaughter of all
Non-converters.
  Pumped-up white men,
Commit these murders.

The destruction of
Several societies.
  Most Americans border
With social anxieties.

Too much racial profiling;
Violence overlooked.
  If you are white and have money,
You're off the hook.

The churches, boy scouts,
So many pedophile cases.
  All this is done by,
White men in high places.

Were at the hands of a white
Washed unproven mythology.
  In the name of God, religion
And Scientology.

An infrastructure solely built
To keep rich pale males in power.
  As you sit perched on your
Throne in your ivory tower.

The end is near, you can
Hear the drumming.
  Many are prepared,
For you, we are coming.

Your exposed, your
Empire will crumble.
  A word to the wise,
Learn to be humble
