Black Truth

Words of Wisdom: Black Truth
Reverse a thought, despise life
But how can you your own kind?
So many tears shed so much blood is bled
So many innocent people die and no one can explain why
Man from which the same ancestors we were born
Apart our hearts have been torn
Man from which many people died for
Brotherhood just aint real no more
Everyday we kill our own race
Compared to our ancestors we are a disgrace
Martin Luther King Jr had a vision, a dream
That today’s generation just fails to believe to achieve
We tare each other down to help ourselves succeed
Every day we die because we kill for our own greed
Sister soul hood doesn’t even exist
We show love with harsh words and fists
We no longer praise our black women, we call them black bitch
Why has it come down to this?
Dead or alive, If alive in jail
Six feet under seeking heaven or hell
The black man today shows no support at all
That’s why when one goes down the entire race falls
It starts within the communities and spreads across the world rapidly like a classified virus
They no longer want to remember us like they will ALWAYS remember the Titans
So they cease help and aim fire
And instead of us rising and standing united
Darkness Falls
And we are programmed with the inception that only money talks
We seek material things as a rush two hour temporal needs
Rather than seeking God or an education as the collateral for our future and to achieve our dreams
They say money makes the world go round
Well that same dollar, rooted in evil, has tore the black world down
Racks on racks on racks puts 2 bullets in a black mans cheat
And leaves his mother on the front porch to watch him die
Just another innocent killed in another drive by
This has become reality these are no longer JUST stereotypes
Everyone is an EX everybody is a CON so all it is is PROS
And we sing hood anthems cause all we do is dog hoes
Not even realizing we singing about our own little girls though
Failure never ceases to exist because all we doing is teaching it
Nobody sees the real cause aint nobody speaking it
A generation of youth that lack truth, cause aint nobody preaching it
Call me Tom Cruise I seek to complete the impossible mission
To unite my sisters and brothers and subtract the division
Cause United we Stand, Divided we Fall
One community of black brothers and sisters standing tall
