For The Love

Some people do it for the

Fame

Bright lights, big pipes

To be ahead of the game

Aiming to be Destiny's Child

So everybody say they name

Some people do it for the fame

Some people do it for the 

Feel

Satin and lace

But nothing can replace what is

Real

Some people do it for the feel

Some people do it for the 

Dough

Pat it and roll it

Mark it with a 

B

Put it in the oven 

for all the world to see

But when the taste leaves the mouth

The bitter starts to show

Some people do it for the dough

Some people do it just to be

Seen

Booty shorts and Jordans

Lace front weaves

Sweet little babies falling prey to schemes

Some people do it to be seen

Some people do it for the 

Glory

To go down in history when they rise 

Early in the morning

Some people do it for the glory

But we

We do it for the 

Love

Pouring every ounce of doubt

On blue lines

In our favorite color ink

Some like their words in black

I like my words in 

Pink

Taking time to reflect on this journey called

Life

Faced with everyday trials, battles and strife

We 

We do it for the love

Heaven sent instruments

Cunning as serpents

Innocent as doves

Allowing  lyrical suppositories to 

Move us pass these

Vanities

Walking the line of insane and

Sanity

Optimistically writing 

Hoping to push pass what society has planned our outcomes to

Be
