Now When It Comes To Keeping...
My Brain Waves MOVING...

I Choose To DO IT...
Rather Than Refuse It... !!!

Because I’m NOT STUPID...
Or One Who Is Foolish... !!!

Now I DO Make Mistakes...
And Have Made Some BAD Choices...

But When It Comes To My Brain...
And... How I EMPLOY It...

It’s Used EVERY DAY...
In... Pro-Active Ways... !!!

From When I Was Young...
My Father Was One...
Who Demanded That I...
Applied Use of My Mind...
To Read And To Write...
As Well As... Vocalise...

My Thoughts Once Considered...
Through Usage of Thinking...

So My Brain Was Engaged...
From A Very Young Age... !!!!!

My Father Would Make...
Me Read Stories Relayed...
From A Sunday News Page...
When I Was Merely Teenaged...

And Write My OWN Version...
of What They Were Serving... !!!

And I Mean The BROAD Sheets...
Whose Writers Critiqued...
Government Policies...
And Real Life Stories...

And This He Would Do...
So That He Could Then View...
How I Used My Brain Tool...

So I Had... SUNDAY School...
When My Peers Played The Fool... !!!

Now Back Then I Was FORCED... !!!
Due To Falling Well Short...
of What Most People Thought...
Would of Been A Cake Walk...
For Me To FLY Through...
In Exams That I Took... !!!

But Still I Read Books...
And Broadened My View...
Whilst I Let My Brain Stew...

And That’s Why I Choose...
To STILL Put It To Use...
Like My Dad Made Me Do... !!!

By... Writing Reviews...
That Now Rhyme And Flow Too... !!!

Cos’ My Brain Tool Stays Cool...
And Is Smooth When It Grooves...
To... Speak On Issues...

Because I Keep It SHARP...
And SOUND Like A HARP...
Playing In A Courtyard... !!!

... Acoustically PERFECT...
To Feed Those Observing...
With High Forms of Learning... !!!

BYPASSING Internships...
Professors Named Sherman...
And Buddies Who Trump...
My Brains Wish To Love... !!!

Through Rhymes I Now Drop...
That Show That My Brain’s HOT...
With Thinking That Rocks...

Just Like CLASSIC Hip Hop... !!!

My Father’s The One...
Who Forced Me To Choose It...

ELEVATED Brain Usage...
Instead of Refuse It...
And Think Like I’m Dumb...

Because....

Look What THAT’s Done...
To How This World Now Runs... !?!

It’s Causing PROBLEMS...
That Means Vaccinations...
Are Now What Is Needed...
To PROTECT... Humans... ?!?

PROTECT Us From WHAT... ?

Mutated Diseases...
Bred By This Virus... !?!

Well Folks I Don’t Know...
If Brain Usage Has Flowed...
To Put Humans In Holes...
As Well As Body Bags... !?!

And Inside of Our Homes...
So That Testing Can Grow...
And They Can... Trace And Track... !!!

Are You Folks Now At Home...
NOT At Least Thinking WHOA...
Things Are OUT of CONTROL... ?!?

And That You’ve WASTED Votes...
On Leaders... Who Are JOKES... !!!!!!!

Who Campaign And CAMPAIGN...

In Ways Built To Make...
People Now Use Their Brains...
In... RIDICULOUS Ways... !?!

WHY Believe What THEY Say... ?!?

When They Just Make False Claims...
That Create Stress And Pain... ?!?

Isn’t That How They Sway...
And Treat People Today... ?!?

From Subjects of Race...
To Rapes And Displays...
of... Violence Today... !!!!!

To... Election Campaigns...
And Conspiracy Claims...
Linked To This Viral Strain...

To Bending What’s Straight...
To Make People Act STRANGE... !?!

These Are The Functions...
of Those Who TWIST Brains...
For Them To Make Gains...
That Make Millions Suffer... !!!

THEY Keep Making BLUNDERS... !!!
While Folks Make Me Wonder...

Due To How They Behave...
If... INSANITY Reigns...
Inside of Their Brains...
In Ways That Are Lame... ?!?

Due To Things That They Say...
About Problems We Face...

That They Seem To Think... ?!?

Will Simply... GO AWAY............

So Things Will Be Okay... !?!
And We'll Be Back To Drinks...
... Uniting And Smiling... !?!

Now Optimism Is Great... !!!

But I Have To Relate...
That Turning Blind Eyes...
In These Times ISN’T WISE... !!!  

Lives Are Being Downsized...
Due To Tech And Health Vibes...
That Are Causing Down Sides...
As Well As... SUICIDES... !!!

Due To People RESIGNED...
To Now LOSING Their Minds...

Which Is Why I Now Write...
My Views In These Rhymes...

We WON'T See Things The SAME...
But These Words I WILL Say... !!!

When It Comes To The Way...
That We Engage Our Brains...
To Deal With Viral Strains...
And Conspiracy Claims...

We Should NOT Refrain...
From Letting Brain Juices...
Run Smoothly And Fluid...

Because It’s... UNWISE...
When It Comes To Brain Usage...

To NOT......

... “ Choose To Use It “...
When it comes to using our brains, it really isn't a wise thing to neglect, or to refuse to do.
