This Generation

What happened to those days when people were humble and 
didn't mumble behind each 
others backs?

What happened to the women who had pride, dignity, respect, 
and good self esteem about 
themselves?

What happened to kids honoring their mothers and fathers and 
respecting their elders?

What happened to our elders teaching our children right from 
wrong?

What happened to the young men who had accepted themselves 
for who they are?

What happened to the pride, dignity, honor and self respect 
people had for one other?

What happened to education and the rest of the nation who 
teach each other and 
demonstrate for one another?

What happened to education and teachers teaching our children 
for this foundation?

Wthat happened to our Generation?

I AM THE HEAT THAT STAYS ON THE CORT

I AM THE HEAT THAT WON 19 GAMES IN THE ROLL

I AM THE HEAT THAT GIVE OFF FIRE AND HEAT WHEN I AM PLAYING FOR MY PEOPLE 

I AM THE HEAT MAKES MY FANS GO ON FIRE WHEN I WHEN THE GAME 

I AM THE HEAT THAT LOVE MY TEAM

Pain

Pain run's through my soul, my heart and, my mind and it feels like a built went through a 
hole. Just to show what it can do to my body, and my soul, and my mined at the same time.

Pain run's though my body and I can't explain how bad it hurts or how bad it feel.

Pain is something that eats me up from the inside of my soul and the death of an ocean.

Pain is something nobody or I can see but I just let it be sence nobody or no one can see.

Pain is something that is so real that anybody or anyone can feel.

But one thing about my pain I can tell you is something that I cannot blame on nobody or no 
one or even aim at but my self.

Pain gos thought my body physically, and mentally and my body gets so cold because of the 
pain, and this pain that I cannot explain it my self.

This pain I feel has been with me most of my life and it feels like it will never go away, and 
this pain I have to go through every day and all the time.

Pian that I cannot explain to no one or nobody.

Who Are You To Judge Me

WHO ARE YOU TO SAY THAT IM SLOW.
WHO ARE YOU TO SAY THAT IM RETARED.
WHO ARE YOU TO SAY THAT I CAN'T READ.
WHO ARE YOU TO SAY THAT I CAN'T DO MATH OR COUNT
WHO ARE YOU.

WHO ARE YOU TO JUDGE ME
NOBODY ONLY GOD CAN JUDGE ME.

WHO ARE YOU TO TELL ME WHAT I CAN OR CAN'T DO.
WHO ARE YOU TO TELL ME WHAT MY FUTURE IS GOING TO BE.
WHO ARE YOU TO TELL ME WHAT I LOOK LIKE.
WHO ARE YOU TO TELL ME WHAT IM GOING TO BE OR BECOME
NOBODY.

WHO ARE YOU TO JUDGE ME
NOBODY ONLY GOD CAN JUDGE ME.

The Power That I Have

THE POWER THAT I HAVE NO ONE CAN TAKE OR HAVE.

THE POWER THAT MY MIND HAS IS TO POWERFUL TO FIND OUT.

THE POWER THAT MY MOUTH HAS IT COULD HURT YOU OR IT COULD BLESS YOU IT DEPENDS ON HOW YOU STEP TO ME OR SAY SOMETHING TO ME.

THE POWER OF MY THINKING IS VERY DEEP AND VERY SOLD.

THE POWER OF HOW WRITE MY POEMS IT COME FROM MY MIND MY SPRIT MY SOUL AND HEART NOW YOU ADD ALL THAT UP AND SEE WHAT YOU CAN DISCOVER IN YOUR SELF.

IT NO OTHER POWER YOU CAN DISCOVER FROM ONE ELSE BUT YOUR SELF.

THE POWER THAT I HAVE IT IS IN ME.

I Cry Down Deep In My Soul

I cry down deep in my soul. 
where nobody knows how it feels to be in pain.

I cry down deep in my soul. 
and it feels like a bullet went through my soul.

I cry down deep in my soul. 
where the bullet left a hole in my soul. 

I cry down deep in my soul.
where the bullet left a hole and it got so old.

I cry down deep in my soul.
where my body is getting so cold 

I cry down deep in my soul.
where the pain is getting so old there is nobody to blame.

I cry down deep in my soul.
where there is nobody to aim at.

I cry down deep in my soul. 
who am I to blame for this pain?

I cry down deep in my soul
is this just a game what a shame
to be in pain.




I cry down deep in my soul.
