Street Corner Pundit
People overlook what is right under their nose
like when the Emperor didn't have on any clothes
It took a kid to state a simple fact
While others whispered but, failed to act.
They were being blindly obedient to authority
Sadly, in this country that's the majority
"When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose"
and standing up for my people is the way I choose
The one thing I know is true
The system is out to screw me and you
While the powers that be dream of a new evil and how to fund it
I will "keep it 100", because I am your street corner pundit

Your inspiring words seem to resonate from 2015, and I say this with universal appreciation you have taken upon yourself to remind us of, if we forget our past, we are doomed to repeat it, and as a sovereign segment of the world's population we have the potential to make that dream happen of being self-reliant in the realm of circulating currency within African American businesses, rebuilding the structure of African American communities with incorporating better healthcare centers in poverty-stricken neighborhoods, purchase some untilled land and invest in growing crops to sell, barter, or trade.
I am hoping each year mankind will bridge gaps long ago that divided not only an embodiment of people but dethroned nations to rebuild others economy.
Continue to inscribe your intellectual mantras down your canvas, enjoy the lateness of your evening and have a blessed Friday.
