WHO WOULD I BE TELLIN'
IF I SAID I WAS A FELON
FOR BEING BLACK & YELLIN'
'BOUT LOVING TO EAT WATERMELON
& STREET CORNER 'CAIN SELLIN?
WHO CAN I GO TO, 'BOUT THIS PLIGHT
NO REAL OPPONENT NO REAL FIGHT
CAN HARDLY SLEEP PAST MIDNIGHT
LOOSE LIES SHOULD BE WRAPPED TIGHT.
I DO ADMIT MY FALSEHOODS & DECEPTION
SO, WHY IS MY MELON AN EXCEPTION?
IT, & SPIRITUAL FRUIT ARE A PROTECTION
I'LL REMAIN TEACHABLE, ANY SUGGESTION?
I DO WHAT I DO IN THE NAME OF SURVIVAL
AINT WHATEVER WE DO WE'LL HAVE A RIVAL?
I LIVE IN SPACE AND TIME TOO, & I DO MARVEL
AT MY DIRT CEILING, WRONG HEIGHT WRONG LEVEL.
I HAVE FOOLED NO ONE EXCEPT MY OWN SELF
I WAS TOLD TO GO RIGHT, SOMEONE ELSE SAID LEFT
NOW I'VE COME TO A TRUTH THAT LED TO THEFT
OF SOMEONES CHARACTER, FAITH, & ALL ELSE
IT'S HIGH TIME I TAKE MY LOVE OFF OF THE SHELF!
HERE IN LIES MY PLAN:
I DO HOPE AND PRAY I PASS A MAN
THAT I CAN, WITHOUT COST, LEND A HAND
AND TRULY RELEASE THAT EVIL BRAND
THAT HE/SHE BELIEVES WE BOTH CAN.
AND I PRAY THE PERSON I DO NOT PASS
MY WORDS AND DEEDS SHALL SURELY LAST
INTO AN ETERNITY NOT UPHELD BY CLASS
NEEDING NOT NICKEL, COPPER, NOR BRASS.
I PRAY THAT I BECOME CONTINUALLY AVAILABLE
AND MY HEART RIDE WAVES, AND IS SAILABLE
'CAUSE TRUTH BE TOLD, I WASN'T ALWAYS ABLE
MOSTLY 'CAUSE OF INTERNET AND/OR CABLE
FOOLED SELF FAR TOO LONG I WAS THE FABLE
SAT LONG ENOUGH JUS' TO EAT AT ANYONES TABLE
I'LL BE TODAY A SLAVE FOR MY SLAVIOR, HE IS ABLE!
PEACE...
