Inauguration Day from Knowhere by Cashus Flow & Five Sicks

SKIP THE DEBATE
IN THE CITY OF HATE
SEEMS LIKE LOVE NOWADAYS IS AT A DWINDLING RATE
DON'T WAIT IN AN IGNORANT STATE
THE FUCKING ATMOSPHERE OUT HERE COULD BE A CITIZEN'S FATE
AND REALLY I JUST CAME TO DIG IN SOME CRATES
AND HEAR MR. DJ SPINNING MY PLATES
IN THIS RHYTHM-LESS INFRASTRUCTURE
JUXTAPOSED WITH MECHANISMS OF FLOW
THE STARK CONTRAST REALLY BEGAN TO GLOW
AND I WATCHED THE CROWDS GROW
A WILD SHOW OF AGGRESSION
WHERE EVERYONE YOU KNOW IS PROTESTING
AND THERE'S A BIG POLICE PRESENCE
ON THE STREET WITH THE PEASANTS
FOR THE INAUGURATION OF THE NEXT PRESIDENT ELECT
IN ESSENCE AND EFFECT
THIS SESSION OF UNREST
AT BEST
AN OUTLET TO EXPRESS A CERTAIN SENTIMENT
AT WORST
YOU GET ARRESTED AND SPEND
A COUPLE MONTHS IN A CELL
THEY 'LL KICK YOUR DOORS DOWN LIKE WHAT IN THE HELL

CROWD SWELLING
EVERYONE WAS OUT YELLING
THROWING BOTTLES AND ROCKS
TRYING TO ARGUE WITH COPS
DON'T START A BRAWL
WE'RE HALFWAY TO MARTIAL LAW
STANDING OUT IN THE STREET
WAITING FOR THE STARS TO FALL
THEY ROCK THE MACE WITH A TOXIC TASTE
THAT ROTS YOUR FACE
AND ALL THE CAMERAS GAWKING FOR INAUGURATION DAY
THE BANSHEES SCREAMING
FIRES SET AND FEAR HAS COME TO STAY
IN THE CITY OF HATE
LIVID
IRATE
IN THE PIT OF FRUSTRATION
WITH THE CITY ON THE MARCH
IN A TIGHT SITUATION
PEOPLE COMING APART
BACK AGAINST A WALL
NO WAY BACK TO WHERE I CREPT FROM
TRYING TO KEEP MY HEAD AS I LEAPT INTO THE BEDLAM

INTO THE SCUFFLE DIVING
KNUCKLES FLYING
PUNCHING BLINDLY
THIS COCK-DIESEL MOTHERFUCKER JUST GOT SLUMPED BESIDE ME
AMIDST THE ROUNDHOUSES, UPPERCUTS AND HAYMAKERS
RAINING FOR ACRES
IN A SEA OF STRAIGHT HATERS
I WADED THRU BROKEN GLASS
EVERYWHERE
PEOPLE BURNING DOWN THE CITY LIKE THEY JUST DON'T CARE
WITH ME TRAPPED UP IN THE MIDDLE
TRYING TO PLOT MY ESCAPE
AWAY FROM SWAT TEAMS AND RIOT COPS
WHO CAUGHT IT ON TAPE
WHEN THERE WAS ANARCHY IN DC
BUSINESSES LOOTED
THEY WON'T STAND FOR AN UPRISING IN THIS INSTITUTION
'CAUSE POP CULTURE'S GOT AN ARMY
AND YOUR CHILDREN RECRUITED
I GUESS THAT SHOE'S GONNA FIT WHOEVER IGNORANCE SUITED
WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE MOTHERFUCKER
WE'RE ZOOTED
IN THE COMFORT OF THE STRUGGLE
WITH THE GOVERNMENT BOOTS KICKING
AND CLOBBERING THE MOB OF US
CHAOTIC AND ABRUPT
FROM MY SPOT ON 13TH
WATCHING THE WHOLE THING JUST ERUPT

UP OUT THE BATTLE OF A THOUSAND ALLEY APPLES
CATS ARE GRAPPLING UP AND DOWN THE AVENUE
IT'S HAPPENING
HAVOC IN THE AFTERNOON
TRAFFIC BACKING UP
AMONG THE CRIMINALS IN ACTION
BLENDING IN WITH THE MADNESS
AND MISFITS IN THE DISTRICT
SAVAGING THE CAPITOL
GRAFFITI TOP TO BOTTOM LIKE A RABID PACK OF ANIMALS
STACKING UP IN PANIC MODE
ON TOP OF THIS METROPOLIS
THE RAVAGING OF CANNIBALS
AND DAMAGE CAN'T BE STOPPED OR HUSHED
AS PART OF WELCOMING THE NEW ADMINISTRATION
NEWS IS ON THE SCENE COLLECTING VIEWS FOR SYNDICATION
LATEST EDITION
STRAIGHT SEDITION IS THE MISSION
