Lyric discussion by zidders 

This was written shortly after the LA riots of the early 90's. It's about gang violence to a small degree but it's mostly about how the general population of the US is to blame for the conditions that led to the riots because of their willful ignorance towards them. This despite their being glued to CNN 24/7 watching the result of that ignorance unfold before their eyes.

Meanwhile nothing gets better for those stuck in oppressive situations. Just more potential wasted because nobody cares enough to give a shit. It's that ignorance that led to even more racism and oppression, and eventually to the riots that have been going on all across the US since 2019.
