🍀There once was a boxer named Hagler
Whose foes were always left in a stagger
He put em all down
For the Middleweight Crown
This man was Marvelous Marvin Hagler🍀

We're starving for Marvin
as in Hagler
Let's snag her
"You gave your promises to me
and I gave mine to you.
You gave your promise to me
and I gave mine to you
Love is all around us
So let the feeling grow"

I ... Fight For What's RIGHT...
And DEFY These VILLAINOUS...
...... Government Types...... !!!

Who Are... SHADY Like Slim... !!!
Making Moves In "The DARK"...
Under... Cover of Night... !!!

Words That I Write...
Give... REAL Life Insight...
And WHATEVER The Price...

I'll Fight For What's Right...
By Using... The FORCE...
And My... Lyrical MIGHT... !!!

I FORGOT My Light Sabre...
So I'll Just Use The Mic...
To Share Some Opinions...
And Try To Shed Light...

I Appear With NO ARMOUR...
But I Am The Black Knight... !!!

Whose Words Look For JUSTICE...
In This World of... DARK Times... !!!

ENTER... My Mind...
And Maybe You'll Find...
A Man Who BELIEVES...
In... PEACE For Mankind... !!!

A Time Where You Get...
What You Pay For NOT DEBT... !!!
Tax Just KEEPS RISING...
But STILL They COLLECT... !?!

They Say That This Money...
WILL... HELP Them PROTECT...

... " You and Your Fam "...
From TERRORIST Sects... !!!

It's LIES They INJECT...
While They STING Like Insects... !!!

These **** BUREAUCRATS...
REALLY... Make Me VEX... !!!

IT'S ALL A... " PRETENCE "...
Their Calls For... DEFENCE... !!!

Whenever It's Spoke of...
It Makes... Little Sense...
The THREAT That They Talk of...
Is CLEARLY... NONSENSE... !!!

It's ALL... " Song And Dance "...
WITHOUT... " Singalong "...

Sounds Like The SAME SONG...
But In Truth It's A CON... !!!

We're ALL Paying DOUBLE...
While Corporates Shuffle...

Cash To... " Their FRIENDS "...
While POOR People Stumble...

I Feel Like... " BAM BAM "...
WITHOUT... Barney Rubble... !!!

But When Their Bed ROCKS...
I Hope It's... NOT *****...
That Make Bureaucrats...
Have *** With Doors LOCKED... !!!

it's Just A... " Suggestion "...
To FUEL Your Digestion...

So... THINK VERY HARD...
And Ponder That Question...

Before You Decide...
To IGNORE What I'm STRESSING...

I Live With... " Gods' Blessing "...
To Pose You These Questions...
With Poetic Prose...
That IMPECCABLY Flows...

Like HAGLER Inflicting...
An... UPPER CUT Blow...
To KNOCK You OUT COLD...
In The... Middle of Winter...

or Maybe Just... BEAT YOU...
Like Marv' DID To MINTER... !!!

How Many of You...
Remember... THAT FIGHT... ?!?

That Was A BEATING...
That Brought Me DELIGHT... !!!!

Cos' Minter Was RACIST...
Before THAT Black Night... !!!!!!!!!!!!

Bottles Were THROWN...
By His PROUD English Fans... !!!

Who COULDN'T Believe...
He LOST To A Black Man... !?!

See... RACISM'S RIFE...
Within... Englishman... !!!

While Some Men...
BEAT UP Their WIVES... ?!?
Which I DON'T Understand... ?!?

Women NEED LOVE...
NOT Swinging Right Hands... !!!

From BULLIES Who CLAIM...
To... " LOVE Their Woman "... ???

So Ladies I'm Saying...
Fight For Your Rights TOO... !!!
But Let's Get Things CLEAR...

If You Marry A FOOL...
Expect NOTHING More...
Than Treatment Like A *****... !!!

Cos' That's What These Idiots...
... Think You Are For... !!!

Knelt Down In Bedrooms...
SPREAD OUT On ALL FOURS... !!!!

But Once You've LOST *** Appeal...
They're... OUT THE DOOR...
Cos' Interest In... YOU...
They DON'T Have ANYMORE... !!!

DON'T Then Treat ALL Men...
Like You NOW KNOW The Score... !!!

MISTAKES YOU Have Made...
You MUST LEARN From Fa' Sure... !!!!!

BFEORE You... " Walk In "...
Through Another Mans' Door... !!!

So Folks There's The Score...
This Piece Should ENSURE...
A Sense of What's RIGHT...
In Things That Are FLAWED... !!!

Poli-TRICKS To Racism...
To Acts of... Sexism...

But Let Me Just Add...
To Those Who Have YOUTH...

Be Thoughtful And WILLING...
To STOP NEEDLESS KILLING...
Cos' YOU Could FALL VICTIM...
And... End Up In PRISON... !!!

So THINK On This Prose...
Cos' Things Like This Happen...
To... INNOCENT Men... !!!

It's Time For An END...
To... ALL This NONSENSE... !!!

Put USE To YOUR MIND...
LOOK OUT For The SIGNS...

Listen To Songs...
Like The... " Sign 'O' The Times...

Prince Dropped REAL Lyrics...
Like James... " Out of Sight "... !!!

Do Like The Whites...
ALWAYS... " Be POLITE "...

But USE What They Teach You...

To.....

" Fight For What's Right ! "...
What can one say these days regarding such a thing as,
... " Fighting for what's RIGHT " ... ?

However, the fight MUST Continue !
.... and hopefully we'll find ways,
to find our way to doing what we know to be right !

— The End —
