R Kelly, Beast

R. Kelly

I have faith ...
You will get yours
There is balance in the Universe
One of these days, you and those like you

Will pay for the pain you have brought to others
Unspeakable crimes and despicable acts
Young girls made to do things no human ever should have to do
For the sole sake of your twisted sexual arrogance

You are the embodiment of evil and sadistic intention
And the weakest excuse for a man
Music is the universal language of love and the divine
And you have perverted that language to manipulate and control

God forgive you, because I can not
I am enraged every time I think of those girls
The precious souls you took and stained with your vile deeds
The pain you've seeded to their parents and loved-ones

Every single pointless tear shed for your casual disregard
I have deep conviction it will ALL come back to you ... someday
For there is a special place in Hell reserved for your kind
A special fire that burns slowly and painfully

And a lifetime of agony and torment for each sweet spirit you defiled
Every demeaning act you perform
Is more indelible proof of the base feral animal you are
The true monster you will always be

Oh yes, you will indeed get your just desserts
And that glorious, wonderful day
Can never come ...
Soon enough.

Edward Ibeh Date: 1/23/2019 7:42:00 AM Powerful, true write, Greg!:-) Ugh, this guy is beyond disgusting and malevolent. When your own daughter calls you a "monster", you've really gone terribly wrong as a father and family man. To think that I used to listen to this sexual predator's music makes me sick! I've since deleted all his album/songs from my ITunes! Hope he goes down hard like Bill Cosby! Login to Reply

Andrea Dietrich Date: 1/13/2019 8:47:00 PM I watched the documentaries about him JUST yesterday, Greg. Appalling how he got away with so much already. Now the whole world knows of his hideous deeds!

Silent One Date: 1/12/2019 11:25:00 AM He is such an evil man.. even his own daughter has spoken against him.. I hope he gets what he deserves.. Login to Reply Gregory Richard Barden Date: 1/12/2019 1:49:00 PM He is, indeed, Silent One ... I believe someday it will catch up with him.

Tania Kitchin Date: 1/12/2019 4:54:00 AM Wow, what a powerful write, hope he gets what is coming to him! Login to Reply Gregory Richard Barden Date: 1/12/2019 1:48:00 PM Thank you, Tania ...

Tom Cunningham Date: 1/12/2019 3:32:00 AM They think with money and fame they can do what they like. But in the end justice catches up and hopefully gives the victims some closure, although deep scars remain. Well written Gregory. Tom. Login to Reply Gregory Richard Barden Date: 1/12/2019 3:50:00 AM Thank you so much, Tom, for the kind words, and thank you for speaking out ... we have GOT to be a voice for these victims who have been silenced by fear, age, control, fame, power, etc., and start to prosecute these folks to send a clear message that we won't stand for this anymore. Too many people turn their faces away because they think famous, powerful, and wealthy criminals are above the law, or they just refuse to believe that they can commit such crimes. Blessings, my friend.
