I wonder why we take from our women
Why we rape our women
Do we hate our women?
I think its time to kill for our women
Time to heal our women
Be real to our women
I wonder why we take from our women
Why we rape our women
Do we hate our women?
I think its time to kill for our women
Time to heal our women
Be real to our women
Kindergarten years of gumball shaped hair ties that connected those long braids to her hot pink Barbie book bag with the silver zipper on the side
Don’t forget about those light up sneakers
His teenage mutant ninja turtle backpack had a green zipper and his dark and thick kinky hair
That would always get in everyone’s way except hers
The alphabet carpet was their souls’ dwelling place at snack time. She would always share her popcorn and him his Kraft’s cheese and breadsticks
Elementary school passed
Middle school flew
High school was brand new
She let out that long Nile like flow of hair
That breezed passed her new hourglass shape
He had grown into a misshapen rotund weirdling
She didn’t know but her sweater heart had snagged itself onto vanities fence
He wanted to unhook her
Show her what real beauty was
That day in kindergarten
Father Tupac time tells him- keep ya head up
Walking past vanities fence are beauties legs laying on the ground covered in sneaker dirt marked with failed youth
Short pink skirt resting along once clean white panties tainted with the product of penetrated hate
His feet couldn’t catch up
With the juice of his heart seeping away from his eyes
Her Nile was over flown with raindrops from her eyes
Resting on his pillow legs…
I wonder why we take from our women
Why we rape our women
Do we hate our women?
I think its time to kill for our women
Time to heal our women
Be real to our women
I wonder why we take from our women
Why we rape our women
Do we hate our women?
I think its time to kill for our women
Time to heal our women
Be real to our women
Gta keep ya head up.
