THIS is gonna hurt
like a power outtage during your abortion.
hurt like
the 666 is now the American flag

THIS is gonna hurt like
Adolf Hitler came back as CNN,
now the Muslims are the Jews

THIS is gonna hurt like
the Holocaust was an independent film,
slavery was a blockbuster, made
billions for motherfuckers

THIS is gonna hurt like
America's a big gas chamber,
but niggas don't burn well,

THIS is gonna hurt like
the wolf ain't comin in sheeps
clothing, the wolf is comin as a
chain store sellin FUBU on UPN
with a bucket of popcorn chicken,
a cross and a crack pipe through
the infommercial allowed to spread AIDS in Africa

THIS shit is gonna hurt like
pulling a bowling ball backwards through your dick

THIS shit is gonna hurt like
a urinary tract infection *pauses* in your tear ducts,

THIS shit is gonna hurt like
a blow job from your sister *pauses*
with your mom’s coaching her

THIS shit is gonna hurt like
the scent of your ancestors blood
caked on the psyche of white America
hurt like the memories locked up in
broken bones, like the steel of
starvation like the blood face
on the window of colonialism

THIS shit is gonna hurt like
a "FUCK YOU!" note to the third world

THIS shit is gonna hurt like
a 14yr old girl giving birth to her brother

THIS shit is gonna hurt like
your third eye in a glass of white milk

THIS shit is gonna hurt like
the metal in your ankh was mined
by oppressed Africans

THIS shit is gonna hurt like
theres more racism and apartheid
in your engagement diamond,
than in all of South Africa

THIS shit is gonna hurt like
a tight pair of Nikes,
two sizes too small,
crafted from the skull of a
Chinese sweatshop worker

THIS is gonna hurt like
the World Bank, like the IMF,
like the Center for Disease control

THIS is gonna hurt like
free bibles for enslaved peoples
THIS shit is gonna hurt like

THIS shit is gonna hurt like
being double-crossed by the CIA

THIS is gonna hurt like

THIS is gonna hurt like

THIS is gonna hurt like
Japanese concentration camps on American soil

THIS is gonna hurt like
Tuskegee Experiments, like small-pox, like the word Indian, like reservations, like the same bullet that killed Malcolm, Medger, Kennedy, and King was fired by the same

a nigga late for his own lynching

This shit is gonna hurt bad, its gonna hurt good!
and ugly and beautiful, but most of all
it's gonna hurt
simply
because thats how Karma works
America.

Logical statements have to abide by certain rules and restrictions. In order for a statement to be logical, it must be falsifiable, which means that it has to be presented in such a way that it could be proven incorrect. A statement is not logical if it cannot be tested to make sure it is true. --graveyardofthegods.net


"Imagine all the people ..."
living for today" ... Lennon definitely summed up this phenomenon in the simplest, yet most eloquent fashion I've ever heard.
Seriously, we have half the world living their lives, hating others, denouncing curse words, carbombing infidels, starving themselves, burning witches, condemning heathens, wiping out populations, ignoring science and running from the problems of today based on the ridiculous notion that this life is nothing but a stepping stone to heaven, or a diving platform to hell, unless you bow down to *god*." -okp keithdawg
