Take A Knee.

Black brother are you gonna stand up tall with your hand over your conflicted ass heart?

Or are you going to get down on one knee, fist up proposing to fight and not just make a statement about injustice that’s happening to blacks in America?

Is that fancy salary worth all the backlash coming from the community that your charity gives back to?

Why not take a risk and fight for your first Amendment of rights?

Freedom of press.

Freedom of speech.

The right to boycott America’s National anthem by kneeling while home or away.

Be like Kaepernick and lead the way.

Be a voice for the ones that are no longer here.

I’m no activist but I’m sick and tired of hashtagging about the deaths of my brothers and sisters just to spark a change.

Single again

What have you done for yourself? What have you done for your mental health? I even tried the drugs and they didn't help. Short-term fix that breaks everything else and my bros keep throwin' me these random girls and stallion. I need the 'Best' advice went across the street to Khaled, He said "The major key is to be strong on your own Lose your other half, you're never off-balance". Lookin' for the love in somebody else. That I probably shoulda gave to myself. Cycles I need to break in myself. If I'm alone I'm second to no one else, so I'm single again.

Free flow

I’ve never been good communicating or expressing my emotions .

I would rather secretly shed a few tears than pour my heart out to the emotionless,

Pen to pad ,

non therapeutic ass vultures.

Sitting in a cold gray doctors office,

The minute I start to express myself and my feelings their quick to past me a prescription that promises artificial healing.

Skim and skip over the side affects and over look the health warning labels.

Listen up and listen good.

Take this twice a day and be sure to chase it down with water.

It’ll wipe those sad blues you call a depression stage,

away.

What good does an animal tested prescription do?

You’re at a greater risk of being locked up in a psych ward,

Rather than speaking to someone qualified to ease your worried mind.

As I stand on stage dropping lines,

I feel the weight lifted off of my shoulders,

Because I gave it a go and let every emotion I’ve encountered in the past flow.

A Beautiful Mind

The mind is a beautiful thing.

Mentally and physically capable of doing just about anything.

Similar to the heart it can decipher when to let go of bonds that were once strong.

Not to point fingers at anyone but both parties were in the wrong.

He never gave what they had going on a title.

So she thrived off of assumptions and southern feed lies.

The day she started to put the pieces together that’s when tentions started to rise.

Her blood began to boil at the thought of fornicating with a guy who had someone else but only wanted her as a side

The moment she brought this to his attention,

what she figured out.

He denied it without a blink of an eye.

She continued playing his game.

Sneaking and geeking.

With a little soul seeking and hidden cryptic Social media post,

He pulled the plug afraid of being exposed.

The most beautiful thing about the mind is that it can recognize what the heart is blindly trying to deny.
