Bhonstro - B-Sides lyrics

[Verse 1: Aquil] Most of my heroes were murdered or ostracized So how could I accommodate the lies I see why n***as afraid to ride plus standing up suicide When you collide with corporate interest where the power lies Afraid to die, why's our leadership predetermined How many earn the position qualified The first to lay they lives down and sacrifice The brave we venerate deify continue backwards ways and misbehave Picked off since the Roman times From stone to crucifixion to lynching to bullets Of a**a**ins who were paid to pull it Foolish to have a sense of agency Leaders names are screamed n***as benedicts, playing for the wrong team But of convenience front runners cowardice and scared to ride True leaders in the trenches treated second cla** as B Sides [Hook:Electric Lady] Treat our leaders like they B Sides ain't too many people gone ride treat our leaders like they B sides Treat em like they B Sides ain't too many people gone ride treat our leaders like they B sides Treat em like they B Sides ain't too many people gone ride treat our leaders like they B sides B Sides...B Sides...B Sides B sides [Verse 2:Aquil] Why be a leader for plight of the people When martyrdom is sure to meet you hostile and deceitful I see two options either co-opt you or red dot you Odds are colossal and whats the prize of giving life when ideas die? Perception-wise, deconstructed injustice, human rights are obstructed Message taken mistaken used for commercial purposes Reason for standing and speaking and the averted perverted escapist delusion And drug comsumption adds to confusion Losing heroes to h**n and betrayal Colonize they pa** the nails to impale the limbs Of prophetic woman and men who meet they end Short of they goal n***as in mind control They love the same traps of k**in those who address where they at The reverance tends to pale to the hate they face the cells of opposition wires their place The fakes ya'll admiring in dire states The fall of man and synthetic brands of leadership in their place Its the bsides [Hook:Electric Lady] Ain't to many people gone ride treat our leaders like they B sides Treated like they B Sides ain't too many people gone ride treat our leaders like they B sides Treat em leaders like they B Sides ain't too many people gone ride treat our leaders like they B sides B Sides...B Sides...B Sides b sides
