Catch The Thrown

What you reap, is what you sow

And what you keep, is what you owe

And what the people want to know is

Who's gonna catch the thrown?

And what you got, is what they want

And what they see, they sat they need

And people bleedin', from the greed

Now who's gonna catch the thrown?

Thrown at, thrown under

Thrown to the side

Throwing up disgusted, so we're throwin' down

Thrown under the bus draggin' on the ground

Power to the people salutin' the underground

Against those standing in mansions, spittin' down at us

From up their higher ground

Feed the people, fight the power, fix the poor

But that 1% done shut the door

In God we trust our money, it's a slap in the face

To the rest of the whole human race

Post racial wealth and taste, change a name

But you can't change race in the United States

People say they're kings, plus say they're queens

If we all don't eat, what does it all mean?

We watch and listen, but I'll leave it alone

But who's gonna catch the thrown?

What you reap, is what you sow

And what you keep, is what you owe

And what the people want to know is

Who's gonna catch the thrown?

And what you got, is what they want

And what they see, they sat they need

And people bleedin', from the greed

Now who's gonna catch the thrown?

Divide and conquer, the oldest trick in the game

Is the one between the people who are really the same

As the rich get richer, the poor get bitcin'

The people keep kissin', the feds don't listen

This recession's seen a black depression

Situation of a nation headed for desperation

No quarterback gets sacked on the couch

The sound of black America is "Ouch!"

Governments don't love you and president executions

End up looking like some final solutions

Murder is an institution backed up and hacked up

By some handwritten, constitution

Do what you do! Buddhist, Christian, Hindu

Muslim and Hebrew, you're all what you do

I be seeing human beings that stew, yet

Never have so many been screwed by so few!

We watch the kings and queens and what they owe

But who's gonna catch the thrown?

There's a man going 'round takin' names

The system is designed to incriminate

Genocide was devised to eliminate

Equality is a myth

They had me in jail for a crime I didn't even commit

A stereotype

They feel every color is inferior, right?

Brothers who resist are considered a threat

From Sitting Bull, to Malcolm X

In the land of the free, and suspect elections

John Kennedy had the mob connections

President Reagan sold guns to Iraq

Yet they try to say that criminals are all black

What's up with these corrupt politicians?

Them drugs they be shippin', but they never go to prison

This fucked up system better never try to bag me

Fuck Zimmerman, he's guilty, clearly

Catch the thrown!

You've got to testify

Is that the one percent that you need

Says that you occupy

Catch the thrown!

I've got to testify

Is that the one percent that y'all want

You've got to occupy

There's a man going 'round takin' names

Free the mind prisoners, but they ain't listening

F the po-po, but who that whistling?

Foes making a killing, Juxtaposed against those givin' a livin'

Give me shelter, cause these issues be official

Is the need to feed replaced by the greed?

I ain't tryin' to yell at you or sell to you

Some B.S. they already told to you

End up being sold to you, did I mention?

The cheapest price is to pay attention

Now the test is just being at your best

With that you can hold your own

But who's gonna catch the thrown?

What you reap, is what you sow

And what you keep, is what you owe

And what the people want to know is

Who's gonna catch the thrown?

And what you got, is what they want

And what they see, they sat they need

And people bleedin', from the greed

Now who's gonna catch the thrown?

Ay yo Chuck, I think we got this shit under wraps, son

Dun said, dun said, dun said

Let's get the F up outta here, man
