Refuse

I refuse to be another black victim.
I will be great i care not to be less.
I refuse to ware a bar code across my chest.
I refuse to let a whit tee on a throwback jars in press me.
I hate been how many kids do you have when a man approaches me.
I want to flip from urban to  corpate measures.
I want to gain the knowledge of the earth not just for my own measures.
I want to rip Christ to the fullest with no regent. 
My only regent is the stigma that the blacks in past have set,
Like going to jail,bragging bot bail, cursing in church,
Mainly the with in the ministers of our church.
I refuse to let my people be labeled as tempery.
Iplanting a seed not just for the moment but one thats lengdeary .
As for satstics my mother broke the mood.
And i feel that its my job as
the next generation to countiue in it
LIKE I SAID BEFORE I WILL NOT BE 
ANOTHER
 BLACK
 VICTIM

Debbie Guzzi Date: 3/24/2009 1:58:00 PM I refuse to wear/ ahhh perhaps a double meaning very nice! The more of the verse I read the more confused I get. I am white. If you don't want to be disregarded, you have to play by the same set of rules for sucess as most of us do. It's not easy or fun to follow rules no matter your station in life. Sometimes you can make the rules work for you if you study them enough! "Hoist them on their own petard!" spelling words correctly helps get your message across. GOOD MESSAGE!!!!
