is SHE your mother now?

We live in a society where some people will wake up to walk to their wheelchair and even push it on the elevator to grow sympathies from society. Iv'e watched with my own eyes a man pushing his wheelchair briskly across the street to make the red light switch.

On the adverse, we see pastors ask for witnesses to come forward while passing baskets for tithes during the choir's most beautiful song of the day and black power jewelers stop eating chicken to sell $20 ankhs while wearing "ancestor approved" fabric( made in China) .

What is the difference between a cigarette smoker and your dreadlock rasta? 

What's the difference in spelling it all wrong and stealing the cream of the crop?

Is it true that honesty will have you like the rope of the noose around the neck of the damned?

Or could it be a mask a clown wears in entertainment? Who said the paint reflects the pain if she smiles in a new design ? Is she aware of the masquerade she leads in confusion mixing this name with that and this thought flipped around ...if the pockets get more round for her who cares?

The thong in between the crack he can taste that too her hair is shipped from a slave of another country her orisha tatto...perhaps its not him..no hes not the one...

Searching between so many bodies
Entertaining those thatdon't take the time to know him
he has forgotten his mother

Maybe its all for FUN

That she cannot let us go..

To be free and learn from God

I say move out of my path

All of you heathen..

Or strike you down with the words

Thats St. Michael prepares.

Now I learned that my sex is not for you

It is not hidden in my music neither

No

It is in my heart

You ask me who am I

But can you see?

If I cut myself to bleed will you still ask

me.."who are you?"

Are you to wander forever?

Brother..open your eyes
