What ... In This Life ... ?
Is It Right To ... " Expect " ... ?

Well One Thing FOR SURE ...
One Day YOU'LL BE DEAD ... !!!

Morbid I KNOW ... !!!
But We've ALL Got To Go ...

This Isn't A Subject For PARANOID FOLK ... !!!!!

" I'M NOT GONNA DIE, I'M NOT GONNA FRY !
I'M BEGGING YOU GOD, I WANT ONE MORE TRY ! "

" Why should I let you ?
Your life's been a lie. "

Did You Expect THAT ... ?

NO ... Neither Did I ... !!!

Sometimes I'm Quite SHOCKED ...
By The Words That I Write ... !!

It's SHOCKING I Know ...
My Poetic Flow ... !!!

Cos' Many Still Think ...
Most Blacks Just Sell Coc'...

Or ... EVEN WORSE Still ...
Have NO STRENGTH of WILL !!!

Well Here's A NEWSFLASH ... !!!!!!!!!

I've Now Had My Fill ...
of These ... " Stereotypes " ...
White Folks Have Instilled ...
In Weak Peoples Minds ... !!!

Since We've Had .....
SANDS OF TIME ......................

So Now I'm ATTACKING ...
This NONSENSE In Rhyme ...

NOT Every Black Man ...
Is Living Off Crime ... !!!

But How Many Whites ... ?
Are Government Slime ... ???

How Many Are Guys ... ?
In .... " Corporate Ties " ... ?

THESE Are The People ...
Who Tell The World LIES ... !!!

I'm SICK of This BULL ...

" Some white guys are nice ! " ...

I'm Sure That Some Are ... !!!

I Think That's Like Saying ...
That NIGGERS Have CLASS ... !?!

CLASS Is A Farce ... !!!!!
And THAT Is My View ...

But Don't EVER Expect ...
ALL Black Men Are Fools ... !!!

A White Guy I Worked With ...
Was Talking With Me ...

I Was Telling Him ...
Why I DON'T LIKE POLICE ... !!!!!

He Quickly Retorted ...

" We Need them to Live !!! "

So Then It Began ....................

I said ....

"Listen young man,
they're just a street gang."

That's When I Got ...
.... " SHOCKED " .... !!!!!

Cos' That's When He Said ...

" HIS DAD WAS A COP ! "

I Just Said ... " Really ?!? " ...

He said ...

" He used to be, but these days
he's working, for the M.O.D. "

I said ....

" Yeah that's great,
I Still, DON'T LIKE POLICE ! "

I Then Explained WHY ...

I've Had Police TRY ... !!!
The Usual ... " Old Line " ... !!!

" You look like a guy,
who's just done a crime ... "

They've Acted Like Berks ...
When I've Been In My Merc' ... !!!!!

Quizzing Me In The Morning ...
RIGHT OUTSIDE My Work ... ?!!!?

So What Do You Think ...
My White Colleague said ... ?!?

" WHEN YOU LOOK LIKE
YOU DO, WHAT DO YOU EXPECT !?! "

We Were On The Phone ...
Otherwise He'd Be RED ... !!!!

Because of The GRIP ...
I'd of Had ROUND HIS NECK ... !!!!!

Cos' What He Was Saying ...
Is ... I Should EXPECT ...
To NOT EVER GET ...
A Little RESPECT ... !!! ? !!!

He Said ...

" He was joking
to just get me vex ! "

Well This Was His Aim ...
But I Wasn't Upset ...
Cos' Funny Enough ...

It's What I Now Expect ...
From ... IGNORANT Whites ...
Who Are WHITER Than WHITE ...

So That's When I Said ...

" Your father must be,
a REALLY COOL GUY,
to stand up and tell,
on, Racist Police Guys !
cos' this is the breed,
that's kept in PIG STYS !!!"

I Left Him To Dwell .............................................
On The Idea of Cells ...
Where Black Men Have DIED ... !!!
And Police Said .... " HE FELL ?!? " ...

I've Now Learnt A Lesson ... !!!
I'll ... NEVER FORGET ... !!!!!

When Speaking To People ...
On THIS YOU CAN BET ... !!!!!

Most People ... " BELIEVE " ...
Their House Is PERFECT ... !!!

And DON'T Like To Hear ...
A View That Suggests ...
Some Things In Their House ...
May Have Some DEFECTS ... !!!!!

People of ALL SECTS ... !!!!!!!!!!!!!
NEED .... REALITY CHECKS .... !!!

And THIS Is Now Something ...
I've Come To ........

....... " Expect " .......
