Matrixing
To bludgeon me, shoot me, doesn't end me
The cracking of the flesh releases the spirit introducing me
To what really is instead of this warped version of reality
The freeing of the spirit allows me to see, that we're all shackle, thinking we're free
Garbage piled miles high all around
The walls of your imagined Jericho long ago came tumbling down
The master program was attacked by a trojan
That keeps us seeing what isn't there again and again
We fight each other over nothing, because nothing is all that we know
Those that have...

Caged Heat
Can you imagine walking among the carnage of reality
Your destiny was to discover that there is no such a thing as infinity
To know there's a beginning and end, I've mentally closed the loop
Into a Mobius strip containing time and space riding on truth
Lies and everything corrupt is simply negative energy
My dragon has been well fed off of those that defy me
Never mind whatever deity you bow to, be they of darkness or light
I am the only one left of my race and I must show my might
Invading Nebulars and killing stars before they're born ...

A balding commie acting all swasty
Haha, it wasn’t that long ago that he was considered swarthy
He went all Darwin and genetics trying to lighten up his seed
When Yakub alone experimented with lightening the breed
The Cheddar Man followed the ice as it receded north
The reflection of the sun off of the ice brought the blue eye forth
Spaniards, Italians, French, Russians, Swedes, and Germans
Were unwanted, swarthy in complexion, according to Ben Franklin not Peewee Herman
They were a danger to New England’s whiteness, considered the...

Stockholm Economics
So, I be watching the news and shit
Now before you judge me, I know why many of you don’t
Y’all say it’s depressing, nothing on it of real importance, and you’re absolutely right
Case in point, last night I was watching some Daytime news, that was local hometown reporting
The journalist looked up from the desk with intense emotion in his face like;
“Top Stories tonight include: A labor union is asking for wage negotiations from a top restaurant chain.”
“A nation is on the brink of an invasion by a foreign power while dealing with its own civil war.” ...

We Are The People
Racial Discrimination
Bigotry it’s sad correlation
Such an unpleasant topic since the beginning of creation
Even the narration
Has been society’s own downfall castration
These words have never gotten the props of a backseat stagnation
To despise coloration of one’s skin is a mental sickness infestation
No jest or reasons for this unfair formulation
The ancestry history of blacks caught, and netted
Future landed to be sweated
Savagely molested
American is still indebted ...

Gender Identity In Perilous Times
Who makes the decision as a person stand
Once life exits the birth canal are you now considered woman or a man
Pink or Blue
We extend our congratulations as we waited for this handsome bundle anew
However, what happens when one’s not sure after coming of age
The mentality of your gender, a person just cannot gage
Parents dealing with alter egos and the backlash of identity rage
Marbles and trains become dolls and dresses
Counselors out of pocket expenses to determine undetected sexes
But mama, I feel that way everyday
I...

Sic 'Em
Women in the hood are being asked to mass produce
Brothers dying in the streets have gone up instead of being reduced
The need for more soldiers has shot through the roof
Just hold your ears to the streets if you're looking for more proof
There was already wars going on before the cop brought in extra troops
All with instructions, "if he's wearing a hoodie, no questions, just shoot"
The lines have been drawn, this is a war zone
Soldiers are being killed if any sign of a man is shown
"Boy you better get down, you better not try and...

Random Rambling - Diary entry
I don’t understand this world. It seems so strange to me. Everything is never as it should be. Wars, famine, economic collapse, diseases and corruption. Why? Why is it so difficult to just live and let live? Why is it so difficult to accept death when your time has come? You can’t live forever, and I don’t understand the people who’d like to. Why? You’ll only see everything wither away and die around you. Just do what you have to do in this life and die like a decent human being when your old, senile and useless. Or is that wrong for me to say? Did I hurt someone’s feelings? Was I to harsh? ...

where life least hangs
i see an earthquake crush the haitian land
such misery i can never understand
for i am in a place safe on a rock
dreading no portent shake or aftershock
i see dead soldiers in afghanistan
silenced by isis whim and taliban
my streets of home are filled with idle men
no trace of proselyte or saracen

Blessed be the Fruit
(Parallels of Fictional Tales and Real-World Spells)
There are these men who claim to have more
knowledge over women’s bodies. They issue laws
to have more control over them under the guise of
morality or God and all that that is pure, and so a
plan is formed, but it’s more of an ominous map
that seems to head toward this fictional dystopia
*
Quoting scriptures, they look to these ancient laws,
to a time when women were stoned to death if
they were caught in the act of fornication or some
other decree that...

Straight Talk Live (Unsportmanship)
How would one ever know their passion of achievement if not willing to take the risk for the greater good. The laws of gravity are meant for the earth, to uplift the mind, soften the heart, and to spiritually enlighten the spirit of the soul.
We all get up each morning, hoping, praying for one more chance of survival in this realm we call life, however, we refuse to move or adjust to make our circumstances much better, more productive to enjoy the fruit of our labor.
This country is at a dire crossroads. It makes one ask of themselves,...
