THANKFUL FOR THA ABILITY TO CRY
Today I’m thankful for our ability to cry…

when our mouths can’t find the words

Tha Boyfriend
Making him argue with me about something silly, so we can make-up.
Stealing his pencil so he has to put his arms around me to get it.
Walking to class a different way, because I know I’ll pass him.
Jogging together or racing him to the top of the climbing wall.
Having him walk me to class even though

Our Wombmen Be Tha Bidness
They are always imitated and copied
Innovative to when they create
Their hips shake off the hate from those who be forever stealing from them because their visions of beauty be watered down
As our wombman smile
It can gravitate galaxies in an axis where eyes are mesmerized and chins drop
But they also manifest civilizations and movements to free

Cuz It's Tha N of Tha World
I wonder what would happen
If there would be no more wars
Is this even scriptural
Is it even possible
And where you gonna be
Where the fires of World War 3
Blow and explod melting all trees.
the plants, grasses, concrete, diamonds and hold
The earth all around us dissolving like butter in the sun
Everyone on the run
Cuz

Tha Cry of a Lost Soul
I used to walk in shadows, I used to feel restraint
I used to look for meadows, so green in coloured paint
My life was full of sadness, I used to be suppressed
Though felt a grain of gladness, deep down inside my chest
I knew it was maturing, just waiting to burst out
The voice inside me warning, of

Uss ujale se zindagi roshan hui meri
Zindagi ke baad maut me andhera bahut tha
