russell curry - mathematics 2014 lyrics

[hook: russell curry]
we got a problem, houston
tell the cops drop the weapons and stop the shootin’
yeah, we got a problem, houston
tell the cops drop the weapons and stop the shootin’

[verse 1: russell curry]
what you know about a third world problem in a first world nation?
stomach’s straight blazin’
home invasion, pigs chasin’ waitin’ patient
perfect occasion, either serving strange fruit or turned into bacon
of course we’re products of the choices we’re makin’
also of the situations that we’re raised in
we’re wakin’ from american dreams
over one fifth of poor people are younger than 18
twice as many black babies die before 1
experts debate, but the truth is gonna come
yo, people of color under a third of the nation
but make more than half of the prison population
1 in 3 chance that i’ll join at some point
and 4 times as likely for a cop to hold at gunpoint
build a new prison when the kids fail a test
companies turn caged bodies into profits
more locked up today than 1920-80 combined
reagan came, incarceration climbed 5 times
from when the bible was under his hand
his policies made imprisonment supply and demand
the war on drugs is a war on thugs
catch you in the uniform you’re catching time or catching slugs
(what’s it consist of?)
dark skin, do-rags and jordan shoes
pants sagging, and no can’t forget the tattoos
the image of drug consumers and dealers on the news
is 14% of sellers, 21 of the ones who use

[hook: russell curry]
yo, that’s why i said we got a problem, houston
tell the cops drop the weapons and stop the shootin’
yeah, we got a problem, houston
when russell’s on the mic then we let the truth in
