Parable Explained

Such is the meaning of the first rhyme
For those blind to the parable of the swayed minds
I spoke of a people who had just lost a king
They weren’t sure who would rule everything
The people were America, we were concerned
The king’s death was Clinton’s second and final term
I mentioned two princes, one from the shore
He would be king as his father before
Then was the prince saying he’s for the poor
Texas makes George W. from the shore
Prince for the poor is the Democrat Gore
Elections were rigged so the man became sore
Thus George W. as his father before
Now President yet he comes from the Lord
And the fifty tribes were the states keeping score
Who couldn’t believe Bush didn’t cheat Gore
He tried to convince us he came from the Lord
Tryna finance the church so with them he could score
The lands from the East were was with whom we war
Started by Bush then his father before
But 9-11 they struck rich and the poor
Then Bush rose claiming he would restore
Peace to the poor and the rich through a war
Rich and the poor were upset and were sore
So now they think Bush is of the Lord
Seems we forgot that the man was a fraud

*long silent pause in song*

(O’hene in recorded conversation):
It’s either you not wanna accept it or you gonna accept it, but those who have ears let them hear, you know what I’m saying? Like that’s really what it is, it’s like not saying literally those who have ears, but you’ll have ears but you might not have ears for this metaphor
