IN THE EVENT OF MY DEMISE


In the event of my Demise
when my heart can beat no more
I Hope I Die For A Principle
or A Belief that I had Lived 4
I will die Before My Time
Because I feel the shadow's Depth
so much I wanted 2 accomplish
before I reached my Death
I have come 2 grips with the possibility
and wiped the last tear from My eyes
I Loved All who were Positive
In the event of my Demise

FALLEN STAR

4 Huey P Newton
They could never understand
what u set out 2 do
instead they chose 2
ridicule u
when u got weak
they loved the sight
of your dimming
and flickering starlight
How could they understand what was so intricate
2 be loved by so many, so intimate
they wanted 2 c your lifeless corpse
this way u could not alter the course
of ignorance that they have set
2 make my people forget
what they have done for much 2 long
2 just forget and carry on
I had loved u forever because of who u r
and now I mourn our fallen star

AND 2MORROW

Today is filled with anger
fueled with hidden hate
scared of being outcast
afraid of common fate
Today is built on tragedies
which no one wants 2 face
nightmares 2 humanities
and morally disgraced
Tonight is filled with rage
violence in the air
children bred with ruthlessness
because no one at home cares
Tonight I lay my head down
but the pressure never stops
knawing at my sanity
content when I am dropped
But 2morrow I c change
a chance 2 build a new
Built on spirit intent of Heart
and ideals
based on truth
and tomorrow I wake with second wind
and strong because of pride
2 know I fought with all my heart 2 keep my
dream alive

 I Cry


Sometimes when I'm alone I Cry,
Cause I am on my ow
The tears I cry are bitter and warm.
They flow with life but take no form
I Cry because my heart is torn.
I find it difficult to carry on.
If I had an ear to confiding,
I would cry among my treasured friend,
but who do you know that stops that long,
to help another carry on.
The world moves fast and it would rather pass by.
Then to stop and see what makes one cry,
so painful and sad.
And sometimes...
I Cry
and no one cares about why.

The Rose That Grew From Concrete 

Did you hear about the rose that grew from concrete?
Proving nature's law is wrong it learned to walk without having feet.
Funny it seems, but by keeping it's dreams, it learned to breathe fresh air.
Long live the rose that grew from concrete when no one else ever cared.

 Ambition over Adversity 

Take ones adversity 
Learn from their misfortune 
Learn from their pain 
Believe in something 
Believe in yourself 
Turn adversity into ambition
Now blossom into wealth

Can You See the Pride In the Panther 

Can You See the Pride In the Panther
As he grows in splendor and grace 
Topling obstacles placed in the way, 
of the progression of his race. 
Can You See the Pride In the Panther
as she nurtures her young all alone 
The seed must grow regardless 
of the fact that it is planted in stone. 
Can You See the Pride In the Panthers 
as they unify as one. 
The flower blooms with brilliance,
and outshines the rays of the sun.

 In The Depths of Solitude 

A young heart with an old soul 
How can there be peace? 
How can I be in the depths of solitude
When there are two inside of me? 
This duo in me causes the perfect opportunity
To learn and live twice as fast 
As those who accept simplicity...
