Whats good! I'm 16, and have been writing ever since I could hold a pen. The name is Polska, a.k.a Art-A-Fact because I spit to make Art A Fact with tracks that'll become artifacts. Trying to wipe out the cess pit of bullshit that is mainstream rap, and make indie/underground known. Look out for the Ars Gratia Artis mixtape, comin soon!

Story behind the song
A song I wrote shortly after visiting Auschwitz...probably the most emotional thing you'll ever be hearin from me..this one's from the heart.
Lyrics
An unstable mind, blessed with genius intellect He birthed heinous crimes, and left a culture wrecked Millions deceased, shrouded in blankets of red Killing off all the Jews, while the Aryan’s were bred He formulated a plan; and on the surface it was perfect And it left countless dead, so for the purpose it was worth it It started our subtle, tortures carried out in basements But soon he required more permanent placements He ordered the erection of six concentration camps Where they’d be tortured and die, stuck like genies in lamps Their possessions taken, hair shaved and clothes stripped Trapped between electric fences in an enclosed crypt Hardly any left alive, the camps became graveyards They were sites for mind-blowing tortures; insane horrors You see, in nineteen thirty four the devil got the upper hand God betrayed his chosen people as Satan took command We remember… For all of those who died We remember… For all of those who lost their lives We remember… That we let it happen then We remember… So it won’t happen again The lame and weak were picked out, sent down with strangers Away from their families to die in gas chambers Their lives taken, with the release of Zyklon B None escaped death; all that was left was a lifeless sea Of bodies belonging to those who couldn’t work Wherever Hitler went the devil himself would lurk And his minions too, in the form of Gestapo Killing for minor infractions, all they did was cause woe A man starving to death, picking an apple to save his life Would have a bullet through his head before he could even take a bite They performed human experiments, designed in Hades, on the Jews Subjected everyone to it, women, children and babies too The furnace rooms, were where many turned to die 3 people at a time, shoved in to be burned alive A crying child asked a guard, where his parents had gone The guard pointed to the smoke and said, “Well that right there’s your mom” We remember… For all of those who died We remember… For all of those who lost their lives We remember… That we let it happen then We remember… So it won’t happen again Yet his flawless plan, had a flaw indeed Some say that you can owe it all to greed He wanted to know exactly, whose lives he ended And with that came a blessing, perhaps God himself sent it For Hitler kept a careful dossier, on each and every person Crucial evidence when his position began to worsen It just didn’t make sense; there was a large hole in his plan Why burn somebody’s body, yet keep a record on the man? And through this hole he fell through, there was no more hesitance As the world finally acted on his self incriminating evidence Other countries teamed up, to trap him in an arch So in a futile attempt, he ordered a death march The extermination was ended, yet the funny thing is He wanted the world to be filled with his perfect image Yet he himself was diseased, and had brown hair and brown eyes So he wouldn’t have been happy, until he himself had died We remember… For all of those who died We remember… For all of those who lost their lives We remember… That we let it happen then We remember… So it won’t happen again
