Southbound 280 - Mike Park[00:00:01]
Written by:Michael Park[00:00:02]
Southbound 280 I travel towards Race St[00:00:21]
Traffic keeps me from the church[00:00:26]
Where I plan to play games with others[00:00:28]
Whose names I can't follow but faces stick to me[00:00:33]
Stronger then rice does that mom made when I was in school[00:00:37]
Back to the church that is sitting on Race St[00:00:42]
I wait to play games with 9 others[00:00:46]
A game that we learned as young children[00:00:50]
But products have taught us that winning is better[00:00:53]
Then fun as young children and scuffling wins in the end[00:00:57]
Play nice the teacher in school gave us instructions[00:01:33]
But children grow up to be cowboys[00:01:37]
Who like to watch cattle be tortured for fun[00:01:41]
Entertainment on this day a game turns to fighting[00:01:45]
A black man landing on my upper lip formed from some tissue[00:01:49]
I still feel a lump from where fist turns to a weapon[00:02:25]
On this day I wonder how fighting wins over a peace train[00:02:29]
A song with a vision much stronger than my will[00:02:36]
Could ask for lying here[00:02:40]
Useless on this day where skies are much bluer than oceans[00:02:43]
And mountains are closer than most things[00:02:49]
But I choose a blanket of warmth and a screen that could never fight back[00:02:52]
My thoughts are including the church that is sitting on Race St today[00:02:58]
