life

This is for the activist poet, the jump on stage with rage, call out everybody type deals, this is that express your wrath for a ***ed up system, those jordan didn’t speak up but Lebron James did type people, receive the hand claps and fingersnaps, the go in poet chants, and head back to their seats feeling good, but most importantly go back home without stepping one foot through the hood to try and make a difference, see it’s easy to criticize those we see when cameras ain’t on us twenty four seven, we can talk that 365 through facebook live, feel like a man through our twitter fingers, but in reality ain’t nothin but poultry like chicken fingers, and the only time these women is out in the streets shedding blood is when their pussies leak, now let’s get deep rooted, we have become immune to the power of a mirror, because the reflection you see is the leader you need, but no, we don’t have six or seven figures, so that who being told to shut up and dribble should speak for us, let’s support that taking a knee during the anthem cause he got the cash, and I would do it, but I ain’t having my family held for a ransom because my kids gotta eat, and what theirs don’t, see our mouths don’t like to match our feet, most people simply wanna speak without listening to the God in us talk to us, telling us grandpa took the firehose when he was dead broke, grandma and aunties wanted the smoke when twelve brought that fire, black gangsta disciples, bloods and crips before the got flipped got down for the get down, so miss me with that shirt dear racism, we are not our ancestors, sincerely these hands, them s threw hands, we don’t do but hit record on our cell phone, hit upload, with a caption reading you see what they putting us through, and my question is why you didn’t jump in, you bout that life right, you supposedly got them hands, but I see them hands done only beat ya and you should have a restraining order against pornhub, you should be charged with second degree assault with the intent to cause bodily harm, because activism is much more than talk, it is much more than the ability to have free speech, it sound good to come on this mic to preach, but who are you in an empty room when no audience is present, who are you when we can’t see you, see I’ve learned that the blind lead the blind, and I only had cataracts at a young age, I was still in development, but now I am a full fledged adult, and my mirror is windexed on a daily, so I don’t see Lebron, I don’t see Kap, I don’t see nothing but the only one responsible, and that’s six foot one 225 with brown eyes, I am the leader we question having, so miss me with your dashikis, miss me with your dreads, miss me with your raised up fists, cause even a full fledged can participate in halloween, be natural with me, backup that spit with action, don’t come at me talkin bout it’s time to clap back when the only clap back you’ve ever done is when they asked the audience for an applause, don’t tell me to grow some balls when you have relied on your woman holding up your sac, and that may explain why so many of the feminine species walkin round with sagging pants and strap ons cause a lot of our men have become with no periods, only commas to put a pause on their statements, cause they too scared to put paws on the laws, but quick to fight another over words that may emit from his jaws and I’m saying, speech ain’t , show me you willing to lay yo life down so that the kids of our next generations don’t have to walk on racists grounds, only elevate to a level that we never got to see, so to the poets who molest mics because their speech is free, *** your words
