Wake Up BLack People

What is love when there is pain. love will only love when theres something to gain. Dark visions of torture and trauma all over my brain,Visions of blacks killing there soul with no control over there self's. living in the pits of hell got em going insane, So there forced to use alcohol and drugs to help with there pain. Hard to sleep gun shots all I hear, caskets dropping on a daily still no hope for the black babies. My mind is deep, deep as my history. I'm just a black man lost with lots of worries. Living in the pits of hell got me feeling like I'm burning. And it will take more then a counselor and a psychiatrist to cope with the pain. All I wanna do is survive and give the correct knowledge to the youth, So we all can survive and put a end to this poison that's been destroying the youth. We must teach the truth!.. So we can uplift are own kind and maybe then we can scream WE SURVIVED!!!!!
