Please
Giving the time finances and the opportunity
Would invest my time and energy in my community
Trying to teach the youth to love one another with trust
and unity
My blood sweat and tears
My bravery and my fears
Wouldn’t be an issue in my goal
Trying to let the truth unfold
We are drowning in our own blood
Genocide against each other, the prisons flood
With our youth and this crushes the chances of our success
Seeing where we are headed, my Africans this call for a distress
Signal to those who to save our race
How can...

Heart Broken
The thought of ever departing from him
To her, the chances were very…very slim
He displayed all the characteristics of a lover in faith
He was inspirational, sensational, full of chivalry and
grace
Nothing that anyone could tell her, that would discourage
her or cast doubt
Her man was the end all to be all, speak ill of him, she’d
curse you out
Love at first sight, with all her might, she would kick scratch
and fight
Her Mr. right, she held him down tight, she’d die for
him, give her last bite
Whenever he called, you...

Why Are You Crying
Why are you crying?
What part of you are dying?
To keep you happy
Definitely don't want you mad at me
What can I do to put a smile on that face?
What will it take to get you out of this miserable
place?
Tell me! What is it my dear?
Please! You have no reason to fear
Abandonment...I got your back..believe that
Your front however you want
Come on take my hand
Let me take you to the promised land
Show you how you are really...

A SAD SAD State We Are In
With pride they call themselves guerillas and killers
Unified in gangs, letting their pants hang, their gats bang
But don’t know a damn thing about manhood, being robbed of
their childhood; So misunderstood and they only feel good
When they are rolling off ecstasy, it vexes me to see two
and three
Jumping on one, threatened to pull out a gun, people our sons
Are impregnating our baby girls destroying our world
Babies raising orphans so many; so many endorphins
Brains going to mush; Has me at the edge I am being pushed
...

Do You Ever Wonder Why
Do you ever wonder why; when a grown man cries
A part of his pride dies; so he tries to disguise
His emotions and vulnerabilities erasing all possibilities
Of accepting his weaknesses and disabilities
Do you ever wonder why; when a woman is scorned
She goes through life bruised and torn
Selling her soul for pennies and dimes
Crossing all caution and cutting the lines
Of communication or reason; living from season to season
A man tries to lover her sincerely
She pushes him away, body language saying do not come near
me
Do you...
A part of his pride dies; so he tries to disguise
His emotions and vulnerabilities erasing all possibilities
Of accepting his weaknesses and disabilities
Do you ever wonder why; when a woman is scorned
She goes through life bruised and torn
Selling her soul for pennies and dimes
Crossing all caution and cutting the lines
Of communication or reason; living from season to season
