When I sit here? I ask myself? Would I go through life again with you? After seeing all the things, we been through. Now that I truly seeing another side of you. Yes, I ask myself. Yes, I ask myself. Because I been through so much trouble and joy just sharing my world with you. Sure, things could better if we only try. Sure, love could be joyful just a little bit more. So, I ask myself. Yes, I ask myself. And the answer is, I would.

I Ask Myself
I know how I know how To do what you say many don't know how. I know how to love you. Keep a smile upon your face. Each and every day, and yes in every way. I know how to love you. I won't make you promises I can't keep. Not reaching for stars I can't reach When they completely out of my reach. But when I say I know how to love you. I'm simply talking about things I can do.

(I Know) How To Love You
You tell me things of truth. Like how many has taken advantage of you. But If I was an expert, I level all the blame upon you. Because my eyes radiates when you are around. When you nearby? Yes, constantly smile. And still, you don't have a clue--(a clue) That here is love Yes, here is love for you. That you don't even see. If I was a magician? I use all the magic afforded me. Because it's plainly you ignoring me. Just realize, just realize love is here Yes Yes, here is love

Here Is Love
The two talked, yes, a simple debate. One speaking facts. the other thinks it racial. The black asked, what have you given us? Be truthful, be factual. We earned our freedom. If up to the white man, we still be captured. The white man said, we gave you a job. A way to pay your bills and support your family. The black man countered but now you're fearful in present times. Of our success and earning power. So, what have you given us? Except for your old traditions of being bigots. We see it playing out daily and by seconds, minutes and hours. The white man says, my family worked hard to accomplish things. No intervention from the government. Then the black man hit him with truth. And it was living proof. Oh, but the government got you ahead and keeps you there. The white man asks how? The black man said, Jim Crow's law was for you. Never for us to excel. And tricks of the government keep you there. The white says, I disagree. The black man says, this my truth and I am standing by it. What have you given us?

What Have You Given Us?
Hate not Regret not That woman that some feel is secondary. When in many lives? She is forever first. Yes, that women that deals with so much on a daily matter. Whether that from male or from that child. That woman truly must be admired. Yes, it's hard to be a woman. But that woman that certain men disrespect. Even, walking down the street, to her car maybe even in the mall. That woman, yes, even many women disrespect. But that woman that daily inspires others. Maybe, a sister, mother, aunt, even your boss. Somewhere in your life? That woman left an impression.

That Woman
There are many things I rather forget. Don't we all but it's those things that stays around. But I do remember why I love you? Why I adore you? One is your strength and determination and your heart. You're truly a wonderful creation of God. Hands down. There are many things beautiful you. Your eyes, your lips and hosts of more. You're truly a woman worthy to love. Hands down. I do remember when we first met. When we first hug? When we first kissed? Sure, I remember more. Somethings forever will remain secret But rest assured, I do remember.

(I) Do Remember
Guns, always been an intimidation factor. A fake bravery protector. Manipulated and misused in important matters. Pump up bigots to think they tough and strong. When in reality? They are strictly weak. Always have, always will be. We, witnessing it in society. The criminals that rob, **** and steal. Yes, they are no different than anyone hiding with it behind bigotry. So, if a legit gun holder takes you out. Your family shouldn't be out protesting your death. You legally, earned it. Gangs, we learn how cowards operate. Especially if they not honestly standing up to wrong from politicians' decisions. Jesus, weapons were in his words. Which we ALL should read and learn from. We All know no weapon form shall.........look it up. Then fill in the blank.

Guns
If love exists? Then prove it. If love exists. Then show it. Make these eyes realize the truth. Don't come with words without the proof. Because words can make me seem like a fool. Another person that been used. If love exists? I hadn't seen it. When all I see is total disagreement. If love exists? Just show me and if it does? I stop waiting.

If Love Exists
I put my uniform to defend But still get disrespected and this the home of the brave. I gave my loyalty to the country and adore our flag. But still get no respect. How? Can this be home sweet home?

A Soldier's Inquiry
Before you kick America, just be American born. If not? Remember, why you're here? There are various reasons too. For some, the jobs are better, even if kicked some of the educational system. Just remember, why you're here? Maybe, you came from a war-torn country Maybe, you fell under a ruling terror dictator. Here, you come to protest against your country problems And yes, that's one reason you are here. So, before you kick American please recall why you're here?
