Sinners prayer(spoken word)


I started off in church praying daily./

I prayed sincerely./

I prayed with no hesitation./

I prayed out of gratitude./

Then something  happened./

I lost my way./


As I got older I only started praying out of desperation./

I started falling to my knees when it was time to put together that pack./

Praying to god that it was high grade and I would make my profit back./

twerk. twerk./ please god. jump back baby. please come back./

Hallelujah! it cam back./

Yes. A full fledged sinner./ feeling less than blessed./

feeling less than loved./

Feeling less than a winner./

Now consumed by the beast./ fully energized by marijuana smoke contact./ very smooth cognac./

Walking under crossed swords./ Fully inducted into the invisible war./

The only thing that seemed to calm the madding of my mind was the melodic styling's of Tupac Shakur./

I was on the brink of self destruction./ then the lord called me back./

I still got a long way to go./

I have renewed strength./ Blessing him up./

Now lifting up heavenly hands./

I don't think ya'll understand./

I said I'm back./ Lifting up heavenly hands.

So in case you didn't already know or never knew./

God does not like sin./ but he loves sinners and he answers their prayers too.

my people


I love my people.

I'm proud of my heritage.

I like all of our unique features.

I appreciate every flesh tone all the way down from the darkest of the dark to lightest of the light.

No offense to any other culture but being black is out of sight.

We have that inner strength, resilience,and brilliance.

We have preserved through so much.

 We have pioneered, engineered, orchestrated, illustrated, designed, and woven the fabric of this great nation.

Our sacrifices, struggles, and plight illuminate the souls of anyone who is bold enough to learn of us.

Black love.

Black pride.

Black excellence.

We march.

We ride.

We're worth more than 28 calendar days.

We broke the mold of the freshly fired clay.

We are now and forever will be the example of what it means over come all.

Divided or united we still stand tall.
 
We improvise and dominate through it all.

I don't mean to ruffle any feathers.

I don't mean to boast.

I don't mean to gloat.

When it comes to being influential we shine the most.

I'm just stating fact. 


Being black is where it's at.

I love being black.

Last day of black history Month. Had to make it special.

Momma Rose

Moma Rose.

Momma rose  was always there.

Momma Rose even let her enemies know that she cared

Momma Rose.

You never knew what was coming out of that bag.

  She always had the perfect gift for just the right person.

Momma Rose, was the pinochle of feminism even while cursing.

Momma Rose always brought out the best in those that could not see it in there self.

Momma Rose was quick to let you know what she thought even if you did not ask.

Momma Rose so too strong.

Momma Rose would tell you off and put you in your place

Momma Rose always nurtured and protected those she felt was her own.

 Momma Rose couldn't be tamed.

Momma Rose was the board that would not break.

Momma Rose was the flower that would not wilt.

Momma Rose was forever  boisterous.

Momma Rose was always got the last word not matter what.

Momma Rose loved every last one of us.

Rip Momma Rose "tiger red" Allen.

All Hail the King



Martin Luther king had a dream.
He dared to dream a magnificiant dream.

He dreamed that  all multi colored brotheres and sisters would be able to sit down at the table of equality.

He pushed forward through society’s hatred and ferousity.

He dared to take a stand and brake the mold along with his silence.

He radiated love and personified  non violence.

To this very day  his speech resinates  and  embodies peace and nobility.

He was the shining example of what it means to take on a cause.

He did it on principle  and purpose alone...not for applause.

His struggle was not in vein.

He helped deliver a whole generation out of darkness and gave them a glimpse of what could be.

Even though we still have a long way to go. His sacrafice gave our nation plenty of room to grow.

His voice was  was the civl rightsi era’s rights truest freedom ring.

We are forver  grateful.


All hail. Dr. Martin Luther King.

All the opportunities and freedom we now have in America may have not been possible if wasn't for him and all people like him in that era.

testing


Just random thoughts.

Incoherent noise.

unfiltered   dreams.

Meaningless themes.

Dashed hopes.

What does it all mean?

Testing.

Walking along journey with no end in sight.

Testing.

Trying to do right when tempted with wrong.

Testing.1

Pushing for extra strength reserves but it’s all gone.

Testing 2

Found your limit long ago but still moving ahead.

Testing1-2

Remaining calm when you see nothing but red.

Testing  (is thing on?)

Holding on and refusing to give in

Testing. testing testing

Will not stop until you win….

This was a test.

You’ve just been testested and you passed.

Your more than strong you are built to last.

You are the future and have transcended the past.

This was test. Repeat. This was only a test 

There will be more.
Keep your heart and you will pass them all that’s for sure.
