A separate body Is not yours to decide Fate It is, however, a consequence Of an action you chose Is it ever right to decide Who is allowed to live and die As if we ever earned the right of nature It seems, rather, that you exterminate (Yes, I must use such a powerful blow) […]

Hell Is Already Here
Chalk outlines color my world I see neither black, nor white But an endless cacophony Of lovers and unlovable Slaves without owners And music of children too young to understand The world they’ve been born in is not pure Yet they drink anyway And the words they are taught are vile Yet they write books […]
Men
The pitfalls of being man Any man Are not easily explained It seems we have come under attack From within, and from abroad Imperfect are our motives, yes Faulty have been our reasonings But to say we are wrong Simply because we are men That is cruel I see black men being blamed for murder […]

I Don’t Need Your Guilt, I’ve Got Enough Of My Own

There’s A Time To Be Silent, But Now Is Not
There’s a time to be a free There’s a time to roam and unleash Everything you’ve kept inside King of the underground, my rhymes are arrows Your heart is the sparrow Fluttering to Earth I’ve been shaken since birth By the question of value and worth There’s a time to feel like a king But […]
Contemplate The Dead
Head tilted back in silent contemplation Of mental health and this nation Unhealthy thoughts and a sick determination Will lead to many early terminations What’s the worth of 17 There have been more that have been lost Does that make this one less worthy Of our compassion and prayers And what of the defense team […]
