Message To my Hood
Gun shots scream in the night, disturb dreams in night, We all bang together murder teams in the night. Creating murder scences in the night. Infared dot on my head, all gangster's must die fighting for their life. Claiming blocks like it's their birth rites, but owner of nothing in sight. We all sre going to die if we don't get it right. Mothers screaming my baby flashing light's.there seems no way to escape this dismal plight. I'm not a rapper, there is no rap beat' this is about my brothers and sisters, lying under bloody white sheets. Everyday I pray my brothers make it home, so I can tell them I love, take them in my arms and hold them tightly. I walk humbly yet don't ever try to slight me. I fill my spirit from the Most High when the devil try to incite me. I am a change man Lord help me save my hood, save myself to make everything good. And put the guns down to avoid pine wood. And love each other the way we should. All brothers put the guns down, I plug my ears to avoid those booming sounds, flowing tears as blood,flows on the ground. We need to find another way before we all lay down. Lets fight for a better life,now how that sounds. And have the night pass by with no man down.

I admire where you have taken your thoughts whereas you have given credence to a Call to Action, worth heeding to inner cities across the great lands of America.
Violence among his own Hebrew has plague the common man, since the beginning of time from Cain and Abel to killing of one another through some form of violently. I would one day hope the younger generation, will place the weapon(s) down and learn how to use their intellect in a more productive way of existence. Invest in land, become an entrepreneur of a wholesome product, whereas, one day it may be used one day as the barter system.
Do you know Jewish faith-based people circulate their monetary gains five times before, it even makes it out of their communities?
African Americans are the biggest consumers, but never the proprietors, yet it saddens me to this day and in the cruelty of this age, man can raise a weapon and snuff out his brothers' life, murdering his dreams, leaving behind his legacy that he will never witness to strive or thrive.
Therefore, I will add, it has to be a time, where the Hebrew man or any man in that mannerism when facing his crossroad, come to the realization he has to pave the way to teach, reach, or a call to act with his words by his actions or by the creed of his universal deeds, during that self-reflection, he becomes the vision that he begins to teach.
It appears your words have transgressed by your wayward intellect to at least do all, and with positive well wishes, I bow to the effort, it is never easy, when one is lifting his own cross to bear, but just keep in mind the end results will always justify the meaning, as the truism states to comfort the journal, no pain, no gain.
Continue your spiritual pilgrimage, my King as you make the effort worth your while.
Grand Rising to you and have a blessed Friday.

Well to be forward Black Americans have no hood, we do not own the land nor the buildings they live in. Renters of homes rarely land lords. We are just here and brothers killing each other over blocks. That become so easily gentrified my Queen you are correct you must recycle your dollar in your own community. Yet money flow from black pockets to build other ethnic groups communities. They invest nothing back. I love my people and I support black buiness. And if I state this I am angry black man. Or I would be called racist and under the true definition of the word. I have no hatred in my body. My mother taught me if you do what the slave master do, you are no better than the slave master. Listen I could go deeper. But revolution will not be televisied.

I have faith we will get to the promise land, my King; receptive minds are slowly being awakened to find a purpose to better self and to accept in truth, we have a divine mission we must give credence to, and it is only to better ourselves as we tap into that third eye of enlightenment.
