Nina's Line

I'm letting loose so sit in the caboose if you don't want to see  
My lyrical assassination of major fractions of history  
Poetry for me is an outlet that I use to speak my mind  
An artist duty, as far as I'm concerned, is to reflect the times  
 
To drop a dime on the lies that've been spoonfed as truth  
For a man thinketh as a man & no longer like the youth  
There's no excuse for me to continue seeing things the same  
Torch bearers have sparked the flame; helping me peep game  
 
Some say the game is to be sold & never told  
I don't follow that mantra; I prefer to be bold  
In order to be sold you must hold back on your route  
I'm more than a receiver so they'll be no selling out
