Ferguson, Oh Ferguson!

Ferguson, Oh Ferguson
How mighty your cry?
Standing 100 sleepless nights
While all along being denied
Denied of your hurts
Denied of your freedoms
Denied of justice
Denied of your reasons

Ferguson, Oh Ferguson
How strong your example?
The evidence wasn't enough
Even though you had showed it to be ample
Ample enough for trail
Ample enough for an arrest
Ample enough for questioning
Ample enough to be fully assessed

Ferguson, Oh Ferguson
How many kids do we have to kill?
Mike Brown belonged to you
But what if he belonged to Capitol Hill?
What if he was their son?
What is it they would they feel?
What if the tables were turned?
Would they want at least good will?

Ferguson, Oh Ferguson
How I wish I could hug you all!
United we all stand
But if we separate, we all fall
Fall for deception
Fall for fake peace
Fall for what they want us to know
Fall for forced defeat

Ferguson, Oh Ferguson
Please hear my cry!
I know we all want justice
But I know we don't want another one of our children to die!
Die behind enemy lines!
Die behind protect and serve!
Die behind what's supposed to help us!
Die in a place where we don't deserve!

Ferguson, Oh Ferguson
Let's just make it right!
Let's fight with our brains
Let's stop the killing tonight
Tonight we riot
Tonight we scream
Tonight they'll find a reason to murder
And tomorrow we'll have another reason to fight the so called "American Dream"

We don't need another one...

He needs you. He needs your unconditional everything. No one is harder on a man than himself. So the next time you part your lips, speak to what is inside of him. Speak to the growth in him and not to his set backs. Speak to his successes and milestones and not to his mistakes. Speak to his future and not to his past. Speak to the King in him and not to the kid that only you make him out to be. Don't tear him down. He gets enough of that in society. When he comes home, it's your job to lift him up. So when he goes back out into the world he is more confident and focused than he was the day before. Speak to the royalty in him. Every man needs to be reminded that he is a King.

Mind is racing

Thoughts are chasing 

Tales unwritten 

But they aren't basic 

More complex than the rest 

My brain is tired of probation 

Time is wasting 

I need some help 

I barely recognize myself

I barely make time for myself 

I'm tired of sitting on this shelf

Just to be seen, I wanna be felt 

I wanna be heard I wanna be dealt

A better hand than what's given 

I'm still gonna play no matter the division 

And as I add,  I must subtract 

All the people who had my back 

Where they at? Where they at? 

They all seem fraud and that's a fact

And it's fact 

I don't interact 

Cause the enemy lives just to attack

And when he does 

He just gets whacked 

Box him up

He could get packed 

He could wrecked

And you could be next

I have no fear 

I just pull out my best

And it ain't no guess 

That I'm not impressed

With what you have 

It just seems less

Than what I embody 

I am no hobby 

I'm somebody's daughter

I'm somebody's mommy 

I have a job

I'm nobody's Tommy

But bring his gun 

Just in case you try me 

No Dej Loaf

You can get smoked 

You can get trashed 

You can get choked 

You can get thrashed 

Don't you ever provoke 

When you're in my path

Cause I ain't no joke

Yes little old me 

Yes little old i 

Don't ever be fooled

I capitalize 

In every sentence

I handle my business 

I might be stressed but I ain't in prison 

I have arisen

I have shined 

I may be lost

But I ain't blind

Now is my time 

Forget your stigma 

I'll always go hard 

Just Excuse My Kharisma

Choose Different

When the passion revs it's engine, react immediately. There are times when we get knocked down. And it happens so often that feeling low is comfortable because it's so familiar. Don't get comfortable. Don't become complacent. Where you are is not where you are going to be. There is something much greater that is waiting for you. Don't be afraid to approach it. Apprehension is common but you should never let apprehension conquer your passion. Passion feeds you enough to feed others for what they are starving for. And that in turn will create a society that you were called to lead. Make the choice. Your current state right now is a choice. If you like what you have going, keep choosing. If you have to question what's going on, choose different. Life is too short to be unsure, unrealistic, and unhappy. Choose Different. Choose Right. Choose You. #ExcuseMyKharisma ❤️
