Lets Be Civil

im awkwardly facing an officer, dont know what to expect
will we both jump the gun and start a civil unrest
will the tone of my skin be a story for press?
who’s the first to throw a stone with no sins to confess?
preachers and deacons finally come out to speak
but only when im dead and covered up in a sheet
where’s all the loving and the comfort for the mothers who weep
it happens on the daily children die on the street
it’s true this country does have crooked police
im not denying there arnt cops looking for people to beat
im not siding with those who hate the govern elite
i do firmly agree
that blacks are being a target to a certain degree
but being a people of freedom 
only gets infront of the goals that they’re trying to achieve
it’s alot much bigger than you probably think
what happened to john F kennedy and M L king?


Luke 23:32-43

Wisdom Is the Recipe

There’s something bout the human race that the devil hates
Keep an open eye he comes in many shapes
The wars inside the mind You better guard it safe
Build your house upon the rock or else get swept away
In the shadow of Messiah is the safest place
If no ones like Jehova Jireh how can we debate
Dont let the sin of pride come and control you
Dont you be playing no, dont you go and uh play them games

The Young Kid Initiatives

So you know, the way I get through all this now , I basically say it is what it is with a few extra stuff but thats for another day of thought.

Verse:
Always thought that I was lame, why?
never had much in the bank, ay
chambered the milli inside , yea
Clickin’ the gun off of safe , whoooh
hopped in the civic, start whipping it
I don’t know what the speed limit is
Imma pull off on the side, yea
Pop a prescription and die here
Started making a reverse , yea
Pealing off each, every curse, yea
Gotta keep God in my circle
Im just now scratching the surface
It’s really hard not to sweat it
When fears deep embedded
So what’s it gonna take
Whats it taste like
When the stakes high
Remember this

Seek God with all your heart
And eventually reveal himself to ya.


*note
Many mental problems occur due to the allowance of letting thought get out of hand. It's always reversible - just takes determination to observe ones self. Look up Dr.Leaf when you have the chance.

Hope For a Dead Man

"stop playing silly games , Your pain is my delight
this tree is where you’ll hang, I plan on that tonight

you it gave your all , you tried to fight
but darkness has it’s grip tonight

your shadow hears but won’t reply
cause it’s only there to watch you die

hold your breath, it might just snag
the very little life you ever had."


Do not believe these voices. 

Proverbs 3:5-6
"Trust in the lord and lean not on your own understanding in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight."

Matthew 11:28-30
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

Ephesians 6:12
 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

Don'T Be a Stranger To Love

I was outside walking by
locking eyes real nice with a passerby
and wondered how often did they shed tears?

It's nobody's secret
we've had our weeping
I had my times when the Holy Ghost meets me
and he says "son, it's gonna be alright."
Tell me the reason
I don't believe him
"nothing makes sense"
don't you let that come creep in
cause I know someday he'll tell us why.

Blood sweat and tears throughout humanity
now we love money so much, it's insanity
the human heart grows cold by the minute
It seems like our love has diminished
to judge so quick seems to come easily
pointing out mistakes 
while forgetting your own history 
how's it love if we hate in an instant?
Love is not real if there is no forgiveness


It's nobody's secret
we've had our weeping
I had my times when the Holy Ghost meets me
and he says "son, it's gonna be alright."
Tell me the reason
I don't believe him
"nothing makes sense"
don't you let that come creep in
cause I know someday he'll tell us why

Flying Kites In Modern Days

I got these old habits that I’m trying to kill
Like kick off the ills
Of these psychotropic pills
Cause I’m someone else
They turned me into someone else

What you say, it’ll all come back
Whether love or it’s hate
both strange like an asylum
toxic waste
Yea that negatives a toxic waste

people want to get rich
Then it happens too fast
See a lack in your spunk,
While you whipping that jag

What you mean? 
What you mean?
Got corona home safe
Tryna search out the truth 
But it’s still a cold case

Can we all chill out with the wars
Instead of guns in their faces
Pencils and erasers
they’re gone today
There won't be no bombs away

we’re all locked on the screen, I phone
Bet if I tried to take it
it’ll get your heart racing
locked in chains
We’re just modern slaves

It don’t matter what they say
You aint done kid
They aint got half your heart
So I know you gone win
 
Said,
It don’t matter what they say
You aint done kid
They aint got half your heart
So I know you gone win

The Cape of Death

Rose petals fall slowly behind the cape of death
Approaching our side our cheek she would caress

Fear not the separation of body and the soul
Whether it be quick or slow
Sometime we'll have to go

There's not a man alive who will never join the dead
All have an appointed time, a destiny with death

Since we all have to die, can we not accept the fate?
What's on the other side is the reason we're afraid

Augusto

Remove the wool from over your eyes
      
                                and you will see the truth they hide



                                                                 

                                                                AUGUS9

The Greatest Friend I Ever Had

your the only one that I could say we're actually bros

the only one to whom I would give my last dollar fo'


the only one that made me wiser every time you spoke

the one who comfort mom's when she lost her hope


yeah, your life emitted light, you were a special soul

even those you've never known always said it showed


sorta got me wondering when's it my time to go.

cause it's hard to comprehend why you left so soon
