Public Standerns

Is a tree wrong because it leans?

Or is a tree wrong because it is not green

 

So you tell me what co lour it’s suppose

Too be?

 

We have to walk in a way talk in a way

Head up high and back straight 

Don’t smile to hard cause your not

Really awake being under the 

Spell of what the government has

To make 

 

Oh look his shining but really inside his

Dieing 

 

In a circle of a family everyone has

To be as one you try to step out 

And you’re classed as wrong 

 

Say too much and you’re classed 

As mad and you need to be locked up

But insert of them giving you an ear 

They per fur to give you a glair 

 

See a man with a new whip 

Insert of asking where he got it you

Per fur to BANG! 

And that it!

 

That’s it not just for him but

For his mum and the woman that

Is carrying his unborn son 

 

In roots, when kuntaka heard

The sounds of the drum he don’t run to

Freedom 

He stays with his family and he had to be strong

But in god he prayed that one day his family will 

See a better day 

 

Family is a community!

 

So let us all have a dream that one day are

Community could be clean

 

Clean of the guns and the drugs 

That’s killing us one by one 

 

So I pray for each and every one is soul 

So god could make us all whole 

And let are feelings just roll

 

Because you’re not pulling does’t mean 

That you’re not killing us one by one 

 

So when we see each other lets

Us be nice and greet your neighbor with a smile 

And let god just shine!

Something Inside Me(Not Like Dat Lol)

The view of the

Deep blue sea,

And it’s only me…

 

Breathe! And smell

The fresh breeze

That keeps us complete.

 

Trying to think of 

The beginning of, 

Adam and eve,

And 3g and

What is there to come? 

Out of history,

 

Slavery to freedom!

 

Oh it must be the

Energy… that makes 

I feel my enemies. 

 

It’s the under standing!

That makes me know,

The meaning of 

True feeling.

 

It’s the smiles and frowns, 

That makes me know my 

Miles.

 

When you smile, you 

Make me proud, but

 When you frown, you

Make me know my 

Ground, so I can go these 

Extra miles.

 

It’s the stairs and glairs, 

That makes me know his 

Near… 

 

So I can go pass  

My fears, that 

People try and dear…

 

People try and ask 

Me is he really there?

 

I say “where” they say “there”

I say “no” inside of me

That’s what keeps me keen

To go towards my dreams!
