Just Me Against The World
by @MyValentine
Just Me Against The World
A soaring Red Cardinal Bird
Down below
Hell, tall stacks daily blows
People walking around without a care
Popping pills, pulling out their hair
Mentality diminished from the thirty-day cycle
Bills, Rent, ask the Archangel Michael
Systematic designed not giving the brain cells time to regenerate
Anger, depression and an empty purse, yet, bills can’t wait, cannot even debate
Just Me Against The World
Ooh child, things are going to get easier
Ooh child, things will get brighter
No, it will be, more sleazier
No, it will be less righter
Think about it, it’s no surprise
You will come to realize
These are words from the wise
Just Me Against The World
No civil right shoulders or spiritual leaders to lean on
Yet, this world continues to pray for peace in a unified worldly song
No more, can we all just get alone
Those lyrics are so far gone
Inner cities, bullets keep flying
Mothers leaning over caskets crying
Handcuffed, no diploma, senseless crime
Court, Sentenced, Jail Time
Corporate stocks escalating, it’s a business on taxpayers’ dime
Bullied, life self-taken, silently snuffed
Political ramifications, gun agendas, immigration, no more on the up and up
Just Me Against The World
Peace has decreased
Toxic air from out the mouths of spiritual leaders, released
We put our tides in the collection plate and pray to the sky
Explain why racial disparity is at an all-time high
Schools, colleges, just walking by, why
911 telephone calls, Moorish skin, all just lies
Are we going forward or backwards as we meet
No trust as people come to greet
Soon, society will all see ghosts in the streets
Just Me Against The World
What happen to Make America Great
That concept was just a political switch and bait
Society does not have time to swallow its pride
Observers with ignorant prying eyes
Wrong mother, wrong color
The mirror is our only true lover
Deemed, no self-worth
Stigmatized after birth
The black man, sadly for them, no earthly rest
Peace, found only after he takes his last breath
His glory crowned only after death
This world must do better
My reason for writing such profound love letters
In this day
Uplifting words when we forget to pray
Whispered to you, as if I would tell you, or say
I give you my Love and Hugs
My Kisses and Rubs
