Lyrical Analysis of...

The Us Of Society

  1. Society pushes us
  2. Until we want to scream
  3. But Society,
  4. Is made of us,
  5. People.
  6.  
  7. Some up high
  8. In the Forbes list
  9. Some middle class
  10. Living from paycheck to paycheck
  11. And to the bottom
  12. The ones called scum and worthless
  13. Because they’re left penniless and defenseless
  14.  
  15. And I bet some of you are already angry, ashamed, or heartbroken
  16. And some maybe, confused
  17. But, look that's life
  18. And that's not all
  19. I admit it,
  20. All people fall
  21.  
  22. If you’re in your car
  23. Look out your window
  24. What do you see?...
  25.  
  26. I bet you see, a sign
  27. That says, “Homeless. Anything helps. God Bless”.
  28. Let me guess?!
  29. Did you pass him by, even as he pressed a “poverty stricken” hand against the glass??
  30.  
  31. Okay, now look to your right,
  32. Yes, next to the liquor store
  33.  
  34. Do you see that woman?
  35. The women scrapping across the dirty concrete
  36. Looking for leftover cigarette buds?
  37.  
  38. Yes, well guess?
  39.  
  40. She’s looking for buds for a temporary bliss to feed her addiction
  41. She left home early at the raw age of sixteen
  42. Because she thought,
  43. Her parents were wrong, because,
  44. She thought she had a love worth saving
  45. Ten years later she’s filing for divorce and physical abuse
  46. She’s left with more than physical bruises and scars
  47. So she tries to mend her wounds,
  48. She goes to the clubs, she sleeps around, she drinks, she smokes
  49. Does this for an endless cycle for another ten years
  50. Everyone else looks at her with disgust
  51. Telling the 40 year old, to grow up
  52.  
  53. But, then she remembers she needs a man
  54. A man to pay for her drinks, her buds, her jobs,
  55. For her needs and her wants
  56. Oh look￫ Here he comes,
  57. Coming out of the liquor store
  58. With his pants hung low,
  59. And a case of beers in his arms
  60. And she’s back where she started
  61.  
  62. But, it’s not her fault.
  63. I mean not really
  64. It’s none of their faults
  65. We all hurt
  66. And we’re all evil
  67.  
  68. Call me cold or a liar
  69. But tell me
  70. What would you do?
  71.  
  72. When a friend leaves you alone at a party
  73. In a dark room,
  74. Drunk, cold, vulnerable
  75. A kickback full of hormones and drunk, loose boys
  76. Next thing you know
  77. You isolate yourself
  78. From your friends, your family,
  79. You’re depressed and secretive
  80.  
  81. You let no one know
  82. What happened that night
  83. And why the sudden change
  84. You’re ashamed
  85.  
  86. Now, turn the page
  87. Do you see that 9 5 waitress?
  88. Yes, the one serving the tuxedoed white men
  89. Yes, the dudes who stop by every day in their classic Mercedes
  90. The ones who are CEO’s of their own company
  91. Yes, that women
  92.  
  93. She goes to work from 9 5
  94. Maybe even longer
  95. Because she’s got two boys to feed and wake up
  96. And she’s got no time for heels and makeup
  97. That’s the lifestyle for this single mother
  98. Who’s got no time to dress up
  99. So she deals with the men every day
  100. As they call her slow and stupid
  101. But she kisses their asses
  102. Knowing she lives of their tips
  103. Swallowing her pride for her kids
  104.  
  105. Okay now look at the road in front of you
  106. Do you see those two teens in the alleys behind the block?
  107.  
  108. Well, they’re smoking weed
  109. Because no ones told them any better
  110. Just left them home with a babysitter
  111.  
  112. I don’t care what you say
  113. It comes down to the parents
  114. Bad or good
  115. They need to learn discipline
  116. Because in 4 years
  117. Instead of new sneaks
  118. Straight out of high school
  119. They’re into a brand new pair of cuffs
  120. Behind bars
  121. For what?
  122. No new sneaks, car, or degree
  123. They’re stuck with a sentence for life
  124.  
  125. But look….
  126.  
  127. Remember the homeless man and his sign?
  128. Yes?
  129. Well, someone helped him out
  130. Not you, not me, maybe him or her
  131. But because of that one person
  132. He picked himself up with some help
  133. And now, he’s got a minimum wage job
  134. He’s dressed nice and clean
  135. He’s more than grateful to be,
  136. Second class
  137.  
  138. Remember the woman?
  139. Abused and addicted?
  140. Well, guess.
  141.  
  142. After two lines on a test and the birth to her first child
  143. She took him away from the abuse
  144. Deciding that she could handle the pain
  145. But she’d never ever let her child do the same
  146. Never too late
  147. She went back home to long awaiting arms
  148. Wide open
  149. That same home she left at sixteen
  150.  
  151. Now, she’s finally home and loved
  152. And loving her new bundle of hope
  153. Tied the rope
  154. To a new husband
  155. Knowing this time he was the one
  156.  
  157. Wondering about her addiction?
  158.  
  159. Guess what?
  160. She’s been cold turkey two years now
  161. Yep, been going to sessions since
  162.  
  163. Remember that teen girl alone at the rager?
  164. Well, it took her a while
  165. But, she finally spoke out
  166. Opened up and cried to her family about what happened
  167. She followed through and filed a case report
  168. She’s free to say he’s now behind bars
  169. And she found out she’s not the only one
  170. Who fought the same thing alone
  171. Now, she holds her head proud
  172. Running campaigns to support her fellow women
  173. Who went through what she did
  174. And it took her a while
  175. But, she found a man she trusted
  176. And loved his touch
  177.  
  178.  
  179. Remember that 9 5 waitress?
  180.  
  181. Did I mention she’s an immigrant
  182. Yes, she dealt with it all
  183. From racism, to favoritism,
  184. To social Darwinism
  185.  
  186. Well, her work paid off
  187. One son went to college
  188. Another straight into climbing the rank of marine
  189. Thanks to her work
  190. They bless her
  191. And provide for her in return
  192. Her marine son gifted her
  193. A chance of a certified citizenship
  194. The other a house and a new car
  195. And of course,
  196. it’s a classic modern Mercedes
  197.  
  198. From all these years
  199. As a single mom
  200. It paid off
  201. Her back might be old
  202. From those years of hard labor
  203. But, she never sold her soul
  204. And never gave up
  205. After it all
  206. It was worth all her love
  207.  
  208.  
  209. My point is Society and Life might break us
  210. But that's all up to us
  211. Let it break us or make us
  212. None of us are worthless or hopeless
