So It’s Another Phrase...
Like... “ Keep It Real “...
That People Like To Say...
But What’s The Deal... ?!?

When In Their Chat...
They Tell You That...

They Have......

..... “ Got Your Back “.....

Cos’ That’s Quite A Claim...
For A Person To Make... !!!

Especially When...
They’ve NEVER MET You... ?!?

All This Talk On The Web...
Has Confused A Lot of Heads...

A Few Compliments...
And Nice Things Said...

Does Not Provide Proof...
That You’re REALLY COOL...
And Are Not Some FOOL...
Who Needs To Be Schooled...

Because Making Claims That...
You’ve Got Someone’s Back...
May Demand Some Acts...
That Will Ask You To Pull...
Some DANGEROUS Moves... !!!

So Be CAREFUL Before...
You... Run Your Jaws...
About What You’ll Do...
For A Person Who...
Has Done NOTHING For YOU... !!!

Things Are EASY To SAY...
But If Things Become Strained...
Are You Sure You Won’t Change...
And Start Acting STRANGE... ?!?

If What You Find Out...
Makes You Start To Doubt...
That You’ll Take A Stand...
And Have A Persons Back...

Once You REALLY See...
How A Person Deals... !!!

Because Truthful Speech...
Tends To Make Some Run...
To Those Lost Kingdoms...
Rather... RAPIDLY... !!!

Relationships END...
And Then SUDDENLY...
You Look Around...
And Are Left To Defend...
Yourself Like A Dwarf...
In A Foreign Realm...
Surrounded By Elves...
With Their Arrows Drawn... !!!

You See People Like To Feel...
That They... “ Keep It Real “... !!!

So Will Quickly Run Chat...
About Having Your Back...

But Get Quickly Derailed...
And Are Prone To Then Fail...

When It Comes To Standing...
By Their... Fancy Words... !!!

So Will Then Leave You Handling...
Human Worms Who Turn...

That’s RIGHT Like THEM... !!!
Those Who Claim To Be Friends...

Who Are Really Frenemies’...

A VERY DANGEROUS Breed... !!!

Just Listen To Marley...

Because They’ll...
STAB You In The Back...
Like That O’Jays Track... !!!

Back Stabbers Are Crackers...
And Those With Skins Blacker...
Than Fred Hampton’s Panthers... !!!

So DON’T You Mistake...
That Those From Your Race...
Will Not Walk Away...
Or Worse Still BETRAY...
YOUR LIFE To Protect...
Their OWN Before Yours... !!!

Cos’ That’s... INCORRECT... !!!
And May Be Your Downfall... !!!

And Those Words Are FACT...
That Real History Backs... !!!

There Are Many Who’ll Smile...
And Will Treat You Like...
Everything Is... ALRIGHT... !!!

Until... What They Find...
Is Where Your Weakness Lies... !!!

So That’s Right They’re The Type...
Who Will Tell You BIG LIES...
And Will Then Hide Behind...

A Whole World of Fake Smiles...
And May Even Then Try...
To Drop THAT Good Old Line...

That They’ve Got Your Back...
And They... ALWAYS Will Have... !!!

And That’s Where Their Trap...
Can Make Your Life CRASH...
With No Place To Land... !!!

It’s A Funny Old Game...
That Some People Play...
With The Things That They Say...

Even When They’re Your Fam’...
You’d Best Recognise That...
Families Will Thieve...
When They Smell Money... !!!

Or Will Stand WAY BACK...
If Your Caught With Cash...
That You SHOULDN’T Have... !!!

Or Run... TRUTHFUL Chat...
To A VIOLENT Gang...
Who Are Known To ****...
Pretty Much At Will... !!!

There Are VERY FEW TRUE...
STAND UP People Who...
Will Stand Next To You...
If You Give Them Proof...

That You’re Ready To Die...
And To LOSE Your Life...

Rather Than … Step Aside...
Due To FEAR That THEY Hide... !!!

These Rhymes Are A Guide...
To Not Leave You Resigned...
To Believing In Those...
Who Are Quick To Drop Quotes...

Or The Type of Slick Lines...
That REALLY Sound NICE... !!!

Because Our Human Kind...
Is Prone To Tell Lies...
And Have Learned To Disguise...
What Runs Deep In Our Minds...

From Paedophiles...
To The Type of Guys...
With Political Ties...

And Of Course Some Wives...
Will Hang You Out To Dry...
For Another Man...
Fellas Don’t You Doubt That... !!!

And Here’s The Final Trick...
And Advice That I’ll Give...
In This Poetic Script...

Ask These People For Cash...
When You’re Really Strapped...

Even If You’re NOT...
Because You Might Get Shocked...

By Who Says...

“ My G, How Much Do You Need ?”

And Who Suddenly Proves...
That They Just Can’t Help You...

Because All Their Talk...
And Loyalty Claims...
QUICKLY Fade Away......
Because They Are FAKE... !!!

And DON’T Walk The Walk...
of Providing Proof... !!!

UNLIKE Those Who REALLY...
... SPEAK The TRUTH... !!!

The Minute Few...
Who’ll STAND BY You...

REGARDLESS of....
What You Say Or Do...

Who When Things Go BAD...
And You Face ATTACKS...

Have REALLY And TRULY...

... ALWAYS...

... “ Got Your Back “...
