Today
Instead of
Hiding behind a screen
or
Saying it under ear range
Today
We will say what we
Feel
Today
Our words will line up
with our
Actions
No longer
Holding up a
Facade
of
Camaraderie
and Friendship
Today
We will
Speak the
Truth
No matter how harsh it
may be
The KKK
get mad props from me
Cause that enemy
Makes himself
Known
The worse opponent
Is he or
She
that calls themselves
Friends
Claiming to help
Fix that which is broken
Making
amends
with your men
Man
What a tangled web we weave
Cause I got natural hair
Some choose not to
Believe
That energy is felt
Before any sentences are exchanged
Doubting the smile across my face
Labeling me
Lame
May not know about constellations
but very keen on
Game
Real ain't what you profess
Something you can claim
Real don't need to be introduced
Real ain't reaching for fame
It ain't gold chains
and coppin' whips
It ain't mansions
and french finger tips
Real is who we are
When no one
Is able to be
Seen
When life is messed up
And everyone is ready to leave
Real is
the fart down
the grocery aisle
or
Diggin up your nose
Real ain't calling people friends
that you actually
Oppose
