Hip-Hop is dead
I can’t feel the throb, the devotion, the dedication
I wear all black
Black stilettos, black cut dress, aimed real low
Seductive but simple, I know my place
Beside the King, my sweet deceased Revolutionist 
Rap’s number...

Tinker with their toys
Hood up, hands grimy
Sweat pouring down handsome faces
Oil spots in weird places
I like to sit and watch them work with a master’s poise
Those car loving...

Young, yes...Stupid, no. 
I've been through a lot. 
It's like a movie I couldn't bear to show... you. 
Fighting every day in the war of the po'. 
Got hopes set high; although society has my...

Blow dryer on full blast
Music streaming from the stereo
Hips swaying, lips pursed
Bass pumpin’, vibrating through the thin stems
Of my stilettos

Yeah that’s right

I’m beautiful, I’m young
And I’m getting...

Take it hard to the...

Writing a long, lucid love poem
Can be like a sad, sad, country song
Singing about loves, lost or forbidden,
or loves that did not belong.

Well, my love comes on the radio
And sings love songs to me.
A thousand...

I AM A WOMAN PROUD AND STRONG
MY HAIR IS BLACK AND LONG

love...
So many definitions to it..
Too much, I can’t remember..
Mine’s “sacrifice” but it got me single till O-10 October,
So I force myself to follow the trial that even small feet mark,
Dating all jerks and ass-wholes who...

Just fresh out of one of our drinking bars,
I looked up to the sky and saw some stars,
Drunkenness whispered to me t'was midday,
Why will stars be on the sky that's that grey?

So I asked my...

Me and you, both us, took flight with no wings in sight
Let’s go to cupid’s party, I got an invite
It’s gonna be crunk, it’s gonna be hype, 
Let’s make forever… last tonight 
This love has...

I'll Be Dammed
By Nate Spears 


My birth arrived from a place 
Where the sun didn't always shine
Neighbors borrowed everything
From Kool-aid to Good Times
 Dirt trail tales
Sand lot fields,
Sores filled my legs 
From playing out here
