The one black hair
That WE create
The truth which
We manipulate
We try to
control our fate
Kings and queens
Lie in state!
We believe that
We are great
Brother, we
HALLUCINATE!

We think we can
Build up... repair
The termites nest
The spider's lair
The web of which
We are aware
Beneath our skulls
Pate brown or fair
No matter how
We wish or care

We can't make white
one black hair.

No matter how we try we cannot in the natural turn one hair white or black. It is through subterfuge and false manipulation chat we can do this.dyes or bleach. But we are NOT GODS! THINK ABOUT IT.

It's been for quite sometime
painting the shadows of black.
Far from the rose
glinting down the sun.
But now it seems I forgot that
the Moon blooms in pitch dark!

Now that my mind is made-up,
I can see all the fake cause I’m finally awake.
Shorty ask if we can take a break, and I told her to go cause I don’t do breaks.
It’s beneath me to love on these false Queens, to worthy to be on a chase.

Mmmm these snakes.

I’ll trump anybody for my team, no wonder they call me the legendary “Ace”.
Haters like to talk rotten out of their mouth so much, I can see why their breath stink.
Actions hit way harder than these words that it’ll puff up your face.

Lifestyle changed; paid so well, getting better & better each week, it’s a 2021 wave.
Promise myself I won’t ever turn my back on God because he been laying out the plan.
Focus on the plan
Cant switch up for fame. Yeah, mmm.
Cant switch up for fame.

Big 27, I’m getting way older
and I don’t tolerate nothing but gains.
I’m out here breaking general curse
So my family live under new traits.
And I can’t live under these *** oaths no more, time to hang up the cape.

Listen & wisdom been the key
Trying to reach the top class of the big leagues
Never is easy; be black owned by any means
Cant have any weapon prosper against me
I’m traveling away from the old days of poverty, understand what I mean?
But I gotta say, these struggles shape me to be humble as I strive for greatness with my heart on my sleeve and...

But now I gotta say,
I don’t help people who sleep on their dreams, better learn how to pick up your own weight.
It be the unnecessary “chatty talk” for me and I can’t listen to folks day-to-day constantly complain.
I’m not with the drama -Ish from the vibe people carry and I refuse to participate.

There are billions of colors.
But most only see black or white.
Don't be afraid to live in color.

DEAR PENPAL PEOPLE, put old lines from different pieces and call it a poem:>


when fantasy is an exile from reality
our souls glide not exist
when the insensible is reasoned insensibly
our feelings become the blood flow itself on vessels knit

when we our found in a breathless surrounding somehow
our breathes are meaningful and we are blessed in
love on earth is some of what we imagined now
if we didn't find it on it we would have invented it

for the happiness is a factor
and the hope is hopeless without a smell of grace
so surreal of how the other's presence excludes the sad chapter
words on red cheeks become to faint in pace

the place empty on a canvas is painted
and the dark finds the light it never knew
after tongue pauses the say acquainted
to speak in stares that fill up the silence's hue

but fair is not fair for a reason
thoughts muffled like an invisible bottle of wine
the heart wins to a self mind treason
and the pearl burdens the ago better than a dime

So wake up and what do we find,
the men in black, oh, aren't they back!
Didnt they blow up them planes
or helped those who did
or those who helped those who did?
or so we heard, why the gringos went
to smoke them out of their vents?
The men in black, oh now so cool -
we share hugs and name our friends!
Women, they won't be flogged in fields,
nor will they chop off erring arms,
nor them planes land in k-har
in exchange for killers barred,
no buddhas left to smash,
or so they say, but for what their books say+:
so the women, just tented,
working from wherever caged,
men must never trim their manes
even the cricketers have turned out to play,
though be just the men eh!
Beware if you are a poet though,
or sing, or a singh - coz nobody sure
if you will be lynched yet;
Half the country is staying shut,
half a million may run (or so says the UN)
But they surely come in peace
armed as they go on our humvees;
Mothers throw their babies over,
what a liberation! perfect sense
to the kahn across the Durand fence;
And no we here across the Jhelum
so busy with the mayhem
that anderson's caused to our playmen;
Oh the reformed men in spotless black
they're back across the pens,
and we can now go back to sleep
with not a ***** in our conscience

+or as they say they say -
they all say how they say
is what the books say anyway

The strength your skin holds no one can touch it's a pity they don't know you already won black beauty your skin shines in the sun without trying natural thick hair and hard to break down curves in all the right places beautiful black women you don't need no additive your already the Queen take your crown and shine

They say, you should always embrace what life is bringing
But with all that pain, it's just a lie
In the end, we were doomed from the beginning
In the end, we were just meant to die

the evening star
flickered like a beacon
on night's ink black sea
