Hungry Men

by Tarik Nia

The blue-eyed blonde-hair black girls be walking
with the cool cat's combing his S-curl
By big shot buppies in big cars

HUNGRY MEN IN THE FOOD LINE!

The neo-negro politician talking bout
"Black crack in the crime zone"
Detention and retention
He does'nt even mention

HUNGRY MEN IN THE FOOD LINE!

A greedy preacher
Says Jesus is the way
To more money, bigger houses, higher pay
His congregation
Not a single prayer to pray

for HUNGRY MEN IN THE FOOD LINE!

We say we want to help
But still nobody gives
The time the dime the mind to find
a better way to live
We only see em
Like poverty's museum
