Traditional Leader

I was born a King and Traditional Leader 
A leader amongst leader’s 
A King of King’s 
King of the Universe 
I was born a fighter, warrior,  soldier 
Was marked with blood on my forehead 
To show that I would make money from killing 
I was born with a prophecy 
Born with my mother stressing about how I am to die,
How I am not suppose to drive or walk freely at night,
How good and bad people will hate me,
How I was the light in darkness,
How I am to save the world!
Through healing people from different kinds of illnesses 

I was made a traditional leader through visions
Life was not meant for my grandparents 
They passed away with me a baby 
My grandmother prepared me for the future 
What hurts the most 
Is remembering what she taught me 
Even though she is no longer alive 
I was born to fight for my family 
I am a man most men failed to become 
I worked hard to become unique 
As one saying, States 
Why try to fit in,
While you can standout 
I was born to fix the world,
Deliver an important message, 
Lead the world into a new and better world for all!

I was born with a prophecy like Jesus Christ,
Won my battles like King Arthur,
Founded the United States,
Like the late great grandpa Benjamin Franklin did,
Lived life like Bedronia Lueda, 
The only living eye doctor 
Saved the world the way God did!
I was 
I set the rules,
And my people follow 
I plan an attack, 
And my people execute it 
I give up certain instructions,
And my people follow 
I am a Traditional Leader
