WORLD PEOPLE

My father always told me
Son; When you stop being beneficial
You become useless
To those that were using you.
You'll think niggas got your back
When everything is right
But they disappear into thin air
When everything goes wrong
Just stay strong.

People giving
What's rightfully for one
To another 
Dis glorifying the right one 
Then glorifying who they want
Whom am I to judge
But I also can't remain silent
Amidst evil without compassion.

You'll be needed
When you have what is needed
Don't mistake it for love
Be guided, so you don't loose guide 
Give worth
To whatever makes you worthy not worry.
