"Shock-value" by Cory "Bess Kepp" Cofer

Shock-value lost its value when Emmett Till happened 
Blackface went from tapping to rapping to acting
Like we Empire for hire
Somehow the masters got astray
I saw this shit coming and I'm still feeling played
Dazed 
Jones'n for an upgrade like Maps to Waze
My ETA was yesterday but I'm back today
Swamping the drain
It all starts from the heart
When we thought the brain
What we thought was strange
is now the norm, true to form
Streets saturated with the misinformed
We lack the cheat sheets
now it’s a Big Walls, Big Wall Street, 
big shoes to fill
Big ideas, Big dreams to kill
Free-fall like  poppin' pills
Cops be still 
excessive over-aggressive 
season's open
How am I not supposed to move when  you're choking...   
Me! Your CHO-KINg ME!
I wish someone record this shit so my momma can see
ya'll ought to be ashamed, 
this prolly happened to MJ or Rick James-
Brown
Paint the town 
Cop Blue
Police brutality
A smidgen of what Black n Brown go through!
