intro

let me take em to church

verse

since black boys and cry
rappers have sold us lies
over dramatized by prying eyes
who don’t wanna see us fly
from early on, they clip our wings
put you in a box, that’s how conditioning begins
the best way to hold a people back
is to alter their self worth
give em stereotypes which ironically hurt
is this a bad joke ?
or just the souls of black folk?
or is consciousness our last hope
we barely think about the words we say
read behind the words to see the definition of the play
the difference hidden within the synonyms
i ain’t feeling em, disrespecting each other and more so the women them
i’m wading like a martyr though i’m barely treading water
never thought blindly following orders
could lead to slaughter
back to manny i’m a good kid in a maad city
so our pools differ though i keep poetic justice
with me so we

verse

so we wade through the water
the madness, they ask us to practice faith
in a place that’s devoid of equality
lemme explain it properly
do you know who made you ?
look up original hebrews
then ask who you pray to
enough of that though, back to our scene
a place where if you live on your knees
you can crawl to your dreams
i’ve seen guys strengthen their links
by signing to chains, drop & then flop
and not even the pride remains
i prefer it independent
never catch me wearing pendants
id rather spend my money on a wiser investment
i’m tried and i’m tested
the flow was perfected
dealing with the disses from the rest
of you weak rappers labels dissected
i’m grown … so i rarely throw stones
rather open the door and welcome brothers home
in the hope they wise up to the fables
come together, to build something stable
rather than chasing you labels whose deals
entail the sale of tall tales

soliloquy

so i write this as a plea to the higher powers
in the shower of ignorance ill sail the seas to righteousness
i ask for strength ,humility, peace .. wisdom
the key catalyst of ambition..
i haven’t forgotten when i was last at the bottom
and asking for help..
asking for some sort of guidance
some explanation for wealth in myself
know every time i stumble i’ll hit back harder
essence of my father
even now the souls growing darker
i guess even chasing knowledge has its pitfalls
but to bridge the gap by burning bridges
would be worse than the fall
i guess we’re in the age of numbers with the 7th day adventist
and the 5 per centers spreading parts of the knowledge we need
to help reinvent us even though we aren’t taught this in our
educational centers
i ask for the perseverance to maintain
till i get my chance to shine and hopefully enlighten
and enrich the lives of the few friends that remained the same
are these thoughts jotted lyrically?
or a little soliloquy
i hope whoever hears this can help bring it to me
