Word of the Wise

Word of earth, words of giving birth
These are words of wisdom for what they are worth.
Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth
These wise words were written biblically
B-I-B-L-E
Was & were written for you Eternally
The recognition for B.C. revolution
For thy Death brings forth evolution
Wise are the words were heard they were spoken
Wise are the words spoke before they wrote n'
Wise are the words that suffered before bones were broken
Wise are the words received as grace for an eternal token
When Life faces reality, Words face society
Contrasting the seed bearing fruit of humanity
Words lack the breath of consciousness
Only wisdom has the power to possess
The wise could hear freedom before it come
Ask Mandela, Biko, King and Malcolm
From the darkness, their words are heard
Wisdom from their words lights up the world
Man call themselves human but they are not humane
Thinking their mind is in the box they call the brain
Shaming the presents
