Yes I know this is politically correct

Acknowledging that the following statement aligns with political correctness.

But it comes to you spiritually direct

Emphasizing a direct, personal, or deeply felt connection to the message.

An attempt to thoughtfully affect

An effort to influence thought in a considerate and deliberate manner.

Your way of thinking

Attempting to impact or change one's mindset.


That is if you believe in race

Questioning belief in the significance of race or birth circumstances.

Or that you were born in the right time or place

Challenging the idea of being born in the right time or place as important.

This is a thought about face

Reflecting on the concept of identity, specifically facial features.

Your way of thinking

Addressing the influence on one's thought processes.


Your way of

Introducing a repetition or continuation of the discussion.


And the same could be said

Suggesting a similar idea can be applied to the following situations.

For all the people lying dead

Referring to deceased individuals.

For them to die was a distraction

Implying that their death served as a diversion or diversionary tactic.


And what they found out a bit too late

Indicating a realization that came too late.

Got covered up with all that hate

Describing a concealment of the truth with strong negative emotions.

And now its nothing but reaction

Resulting in a current state characterized solely by reactionary responses.


If you have to carry a gun

Highlighting the extreme measure of using a gun to maintain a position of power.

To keep your fragile seat at number one

Describing an inevitable consequence that cannot be escaped.

This is a bullet you can't outrun

Connecting the use of a bullet metaphorically to impact one's mindset.

Your way of thinking

Linking the use of a gun to one's thought processes.


So wait and see it's coming round

Anticipating a recurring cycle or pattern.

Conscripted through the lost and found

Being forcefully enlisted or compelled through experiences.

And still we find so tightly wound

Observing a situation that remains tightly bound or entrenched.

Your way of thinking

Reiterating the impact on one's thought processes.


Your way of

Repeating the idea of one's way of thinking.


And the same could be said

Recalling the previous statement about similar situations.

For all the people lying dead

Reiterating the reference to deceased individuals.

For them to die was a distraction

Re-emphasizing the distracting nature of their deaths.


And what they found out a bit too late

Reiterating a delayed realization, now overshadowed by hate.

Got covered up with all that hate

Highlighting the covering up of the truth with strong negative emotions.

And now it's nothing but reaction

Describing the current state as purely reactionary.


Action, Reaction, Action, Reaction.

Summarizing the current state as a continuous cycle of action and reaction.
