# TRUTH
Truth behind the hashtag is that we all wanna be had
To have and to hold
A truth to unfold
We do
If we stay true…to who we are
No scapegoats, no hidin’, no fakin’ n jakin’ until ya makin’ it
Computer screens, phone scenes
The truth behind the hashtag is that we all got something to prove
Insta-gram, insta-pleasure, insta in an instant
Fleeting and I know nothing of tweeting
Missing out on what truly matters,
That mother I refuse to speak to
My brother sitting across the room
Engulfed in pain
Hashtag
This young man’s a lame
And we forget about afore knowledge,
Technology corrupting me
Binding me
Reproaching me if I lack what is required of me,
Newest I-Phone Z, trimmed in rubies
Freshest Jays
Smelling of Tide laundry
Phatest ass this side of the Mississippi-negro please
If I can’t be me-simply
Then I’ll happily end this with a hashtag
Truth please
To have and to hold
A truth to unfold
We do
If we stay true…to who we are
No scapegoats, no hidin’, no fakin’ n jakin’ until ya makin’ it
Computer screens, phone scenes
The truth behind the hashtag is that we all got something to prove
Insta-gram, insta-pleasure, insta in an instant
Fleeting and I know nothing of tweeting
