To ‘P’ I am prosperousI don’t mingle with the poorFor they are just too impecuniousI am the wealthy mountain, they are the lowly floor
Day after day I soon come to realize
I take and take but non is given
I pray for better years to come
but yet I'm greatful
I got stabbed physically & emotionally
yet the war of life is not over
Mansa Musa, Shaka Zulu, Nefertiti, Akhenaten--
Something is similar about all of these names
No doubt, there are complexities that make these names uncommon
However, the common fact is that they played no games.
My People & I
We are Perceived as the Enemy
We are the black coffee to your vanilla
The Racists claim that we are bitter
But better than that is what we are
My People & I
We are a beautiful race
