Poetry |
| I seen the light, yeah |
| D-d-d-die about me |
| Oh gee, it can’t be defined by me |
| When I set it in motion |
| Never question the motive |
| Mhm, mhm |
| Whether facing the East or facing the beast |
| I’ma keep fighting 'til the world say, «Peace» |
| Hollywood guilt put a nigga in grease |
| I’m God-bodied but devil’s in the deets |
| But still I listen when Mohammad speaks |
| And get a good work when PT preach |
| My mama used to teach so it’s lessons to learn |
| Before I step and repat, I step and I earn |
| I met a girl’s daddy, h was kept in a urn |
| The world as we knew it, it was destined to burn |
| My success is a verb, it’s a blessing to serve |
| My presence is heard, I’m investing in words |
| Like Nikki Giovanni or Amiri Baraka |
| Jessica Care Moore, Morgan Parker |
| Audre Lorde, Toni Morrison |
| Poetry in motion, we moving forward today |
