We All Ash The Same
elevated self importance
partial morals from a tainted point of view
as if murder is only sin if it takes place against you
every sacrifice tainted and every cry is lost
when race is the only thing that is a measurable cost
no innocent victim for our humanity
oppressed as the mind is full of its own vanity
narratives sell lenses through which to see the garden
and anything that bleeds white is beyond the hope of pardon
we all ash the same when the grave lays claim to take us back to dust
and every life is all for loss...
partial morals from a tainted point of view
as if murder is only sin if it takes place against you
every sacrifice tainted and every cry is lost
when race is the only thing that is a measurable cost

narratives sell lenses through which to see the garden
and anything that bleeds white is beyond the hope of pardon
we all ash the same when the grave lays claim to take us back to dust

dkzk's Great Communications #6578 / Presidently Ruminations:2020 /rewritten version
Rewritten a wee bit on tuesday
I can't help but question the level of honesty of anyone who does what he does because he cannot stand the fact he's inherited male pattern baldness in his genes. Fuck that silliness. Fuck artificial youth! (I'm bald and I wouldn't pay a penny over $59,OOO a year for hair maintenance.
I'm "ashamed"** of being white, so should I paint my ass black?
This guy gets all the more disgusting the way he uses these lame props for photo ops, & the same for his supporters who like the vile things he says, and the way he disrespects...

Division
World is spinning
Way too fast
I can't keep up
I can't last
Too much division
Tearing us apart
Noone cares
About anyone's heart
I just want to feel
The sun shine on me
Till I can rise
And meet it in the sky
If it's peace you're looking for
Sorry, there's none to find
Way too fast
I can't keep up
I can't last
Too much division
Tearing us apart
Noone cares
About anyone's heart
I just want to feel
The sun shine on me
Till I can rise
And meet it in the sky
If it's peace you're looking for
Sorry, there's none to find

Mojaki
Hide now dear unborn
They are coming for you
They'll crucify you
And burn you at the stake...
Die now mojaki
An abomination carried into this world
You are not our kind,
I'll never be labelled a traitor to my kind.
You can never be black enough
Be accepted in my world,
In this world it's your kind against mine
Bringing you into this world is nothing but treason of the highest kind.
Mojaki your father is white
My family never accepted him
How do you expect them to accept you?
His family never...
They are coming for you
They'll crucify you
And burn you at the stake...
Die now mojaki
An abomination carried into this world
You are not our kind,
I'll never be labelled a traitor to my kind.
You can never be black enough
Be accepted in my world,
In this world it's your kind against mine
Bringing you into this world is nothing but treason of the highest kind.
Mojaki your father is white
My family never accepted him
How do you expect them to accept you?
His family never...

♪a white slave owner struggles to emancipate his mind♪
“A private faith that does not act in the face of oppression
is no faith at all.” —William Wilberforce
grandfather owned a thousand slaves;
now he and they sleep in their graves.
he was their master, they his knaves;
they had no rights, he had no wrongs.
how oft they sang their mournful songs,
confused by cruelties and throngs
of passions they could not resolve!
high whites, low blacks the chains involve;
short nights, lame...

Stain Upon Ugly Stain
Get off of my skin, I can't feel!
Shread the flesh from my neck
For those who embrace hate
Have painted my soul blood red
With the memory of lives that matter
And only Justice can wash away the stain
But her robes have been stripped from her body
Set afire in cities of red, white and black
The pain pours from my eyes, blinding me
Yet showing me the plain truth
Of why white must shout BLACK LIVES MATTER
Because so many still cling to a long dead past
Where they believed blacks were not people at all
So the murders...
Shread the flesh from my neck
For those who embrace hate
Have painted my soul blood red
With the memory of lives that matter
And only Justice can wash away the stain
But her robes have been stripped from her body
Set afire in cities of red, white and black
The pain pours from my eyes, blinding me
Yet showing me the plain truth
Of why white must shout BLACK LIVES MATTER
Because so many still cling to a long dead past
Where they believed blacks were not people at all
So the murders...

MISCONCEPTIONS BEHIND THE SCENES
There comes a time when we have to change the dimensions of our sight, as we evolve and elevate with the sounds and smells and taste and touch and feel and see things, for what they are and not what we wish them to be due to the misconception of lies. For you ask who's lies am I preferring too? Well let's take a leap out on faith and trust, the mere subconsciousness of your mind eyes, as you step back into time of long ago but never forgotten by the elders before there was ever a YOU OR I. Do You Remember the stories told of long ago pass down from generation to generation of the darkness,...
