b:\>_black_on_both_sides_ my alignment may be left, but what i-m saying-s very right, we-re always getting high, but we don-t achieve new heights i got this verbal glock locked and loaded, so you know this whole audience in my sights so our mind-frame may be the same plane, but we-re on separate flights day and night, the hatred b/t us blacks rocks me the core in school, we fail through the easiest courses, our reign in the motherland used to be so, that the royal heir-s crown circulation was tighter than most corsets even back when they whipped the backs of my ancestors, when the blood was wet and coursing modern day enslavement was being set in motion and some say to me, "your cadence is like a ****** stop trying to force it" how so when i have this rhythm and river flow that can-t be found in faucets? we lost it, our way has never been the same since our civil rights gains and tremendous losses, in the media, were lawless monsters lacking a conscience why do we only mention black people in the illuminati talks? i tell you what, i haven-t forgotten that reagan ran iran-contra man, it-s bonkers, crazy how we sold our souls for a few dollars black women twerking like they forgot sarah baartman ever since the 60s, our growth has ******** we emerged as a race of progress, but now all i see is problems we aren-t erasing problems, right now, we are a race of problems, now how we gonna solve em when the ink scars go deeper than the reach of solvents? racists beat me and embarrassed me, but that just made me stronger, so how you gonna rain on my parade then expect me not to blossom? we wanna be ****** hoes, pimps, jump-offs, and playas, funny how we didn-t get out slavery too long ago, yet chains and whips still dominate us s&m;? that song was not a coincidence a black woman saying chains and whips excite her? no artistic freedom for our black artists, authors, our writers? iggy azalea can be all she can be and still be a "great writer"? that couldn-t have fooled me in the slightest, the highest risers and high officials are working in the dark so heartless, this proves that the worlds governed by a power so awesome i am just asking for protection from premeditated arrangement of the "free" market these arms races is the united states and other nations displaying whose bullets can go the farthest this poem goes out to the leaders and followers, skeptics and believers, the weak and fatherless i hope this speech reaches the rest of populous, i-m a martyr, so let me hang free for the audience to me, this microphone is a living being that i choke and never let breathe but i-ll never let a mac-11 ever represent me! i told my little cousin, “don-t you believe in that ignorance you hear in the streets, if you got a brain, you ain-t flippin' ye or palmin' your heat, and don-t you listen to all the words you hear from elites so if they are gunning for your head, duck under the beam; so if they are coming for your throne, civilly disobey, don-t you let them take your seat, “and once you-re in the race,” i told him, “you better run on your hands so you never see defeat.” after i was done droppin' this knowledge, this prolific deposit, he thought of all the things i stated, i told him, “our potential is far beyond the confines of traps and the cages so pool your wages and don-t conform to the way the media portrays us” so b/f you get the inclination to declare that by my word choice, i must be half white, i-m pleased to let you know that i-m black on both sides. j:\>_j_c_c_
