Oprah

Birth of the Black man, Africa the Motherland, rubies covered in blood, diamonds coming 2 life deep down in the sand, golden, gorgeous jungles throughout the land, elephants dying for their ivory, villagers sell it by the pound, split the Red Sea, ground covered with skeletons of the millions that drowned, vultures flying around, hyenas already broke into -n- feasted on the flesh of a carcass, Kings sitting on their thrones, wearing million dollar crowns, hippo skin sandals -n- expensive, gorgeous silk gowns, she done had her period, he can have her now, for she grown, her name Oprah, now she own her own, on her own, all alone, let it ring, don’t answer that phone, conversation more painful -n- passionate than millions of broken bone, out the mouth his sick ass foams, a tragic scene she moans, a molested Queen it’s on, don’t answer that phone, ding a ling, ding a ling, innocence of a Queen, taken by the penetration of a King, rubies covered in blood, The Color Purple, I love you Oprah, diamonds coming 2 life from deep down in the Earth, God gave her, her worth, Oprah do you know your worth, not what’s in your bank account, not what’s in your purse, a molested Queen penetrated by a King, foaming from his mouth filled with his thirst, to have had love her first. To all my Oprah’s, know your worth, no matter what! A woman’s worth ain’t what’s Between her legs or in her Bank account or her purse, men we Got to protect our women -n- love Them first, whoever they are, whatever Color they are, let them know their worth Hello, ding a ling, you call yourself a King -N- she a Queen, yet you don’t know her worth Focusing on what’s between her Legs -n- in her bank account -n- In her purse, you’re the worst Real talk
