The Introduction

Lyrics

What up everybody! Young Franklin here

Spitting lyrical histories like a modern day Shakespeare

It says here I’m best known to get kites and let em fly

Less known for making lesser known prose “poetry-fied”

I make rhymes from otherwise lame essays

Cut monotony from philosophy, its the best way

To say what they say in my own way

Slaying ancient leviathans, Van Helsing with the pen

Let the Doctor operate, its time to pick apart 

the sickness I’m witnessing from the citizens-at-large

All the civilians in ignorance, fighting for their lives

Misinterpreting the lines within the Bill of Rights

They’re listening to lies, manipulated by alt-facts

Don’t take time to read subtext and the context

The times aren’t the same, priorities aren’t the same

This a living, breathing document capable of change

So let’s take a look at each right one-by-one

I’ll summarize through hip-hop, won’t this be fun

We’ll start at one and take all the way to Ten.

Here’s our Commandments mixed with Franklin wisdom
