What's the standard of justice?
Unless I miss my guess
Yours justifies any action against any supremacist
So then I gotta ask how you define that
In case you label me as one, assuming without the facts
Now, this a problem that I never thought I'd face
Still I look it in the eye, so it's time to set it straight
'Cause when they generalize, they make me the bad guy
Even when evidence ain't materialized
In my case. I can't justify others
Who clearly hate with no cause, but try to cover up a feeling
Once accepted, but some thought we moved past
Others say not, and instead we backtracked
They might think I'm like anyone else, but I am not them
Never was, I can learn not to repeat again
But they don't want to hear it. I swear that they're obsessed
Judging children, for what the fathers all commit
One cold town, to one cold city
To one cold state, to one cold country
To one cold world. It don't get colder than
One cold world. But it started with
One cold town, to one cold city
To one cold state, to one cold country
To one cold world. It don't get colder than
One cold world. It don't get colder man
As more lost history is revealed
Feelings start to emerge, potentially blur what is real
And I start to wonder what my friends think about me
Wonder who they listening to, shaping their mentality
Hope they don't disown me, man I never thought I'd fear
Resentment of this magnitude making itself clear
Some say that we don't care. Don't put me in that lump sum
I'm just as saddened as you by the outcome
But realize there's no logical way to deny
The fallen condition that still resides inside
The hearts of all men. Now they can call it something else
But a rose is still a rose so this problem gotta be dealt
Some know and been trying to find the right way to go
Some try to perfect it while others just let it flow
I submit that both sides are incorrect
A hardened heart only changes once it's been wrecked.
One cold town, to one cold city
To one cold state, to one cold country
To one cold world. It don't get colder than
One cold world. But it started with
One cold town, to one cold city
To one cold state, to one cold country
To one cold world. It don't get colder than
One cold world. It don't get colder man

This is just a great record all around. Playdough & Sean Patrick did their thing with the live instrumentation, and the lyrics are brilliant as well. Precursor Mentality
Tunnel Rats are a group of emcees from the West Coast, and one of the first groups I discovered when I was getting into rap. The Battery's release gives you a glimpse of just how fresh that crew is. Precursor Mentality
