(I don’t know what to write… Oh well - Yo)I offer nothing but the uncertain promiseThat I’ll honestly pursue the crooked path of the consciousNot just another body in the battle for the soulNever sold self for its weight in platinum and gold butMan we’re getting grownWisdom got us thinking in the interest of our children even if they ain’t been given their fleshTheir bonesTheir homes or their names yetI’m aiming for the change in my pocket for the paybackThe change augmented by the government to nothingThe change of a whirlwind unraveling the coming of that next shitI can’t wait for when it comes, shitIt better be worth the shit that I paid most my life withIt’s nice when it rains sometimeCleansing minds in my habitatImagine that I’m digging to findWhat was hidden by the myth of a god up in the skyKnowing that She meant for me to rhymeSo I Give thanks to the most, the least that I can doI wear this skin to find the me inside of youWhen I dream that I’m dreaming I feel most aliveSacrifice nightsWrite to surviveProper hand gestures conjure ancestorsDrinking from the bottle that was meantFor the message that was sent from the tired and the trueI give thanks to the most, the least that I can doWay back I used to call upon the Father oftenI fought the devil last night and almost lost –Now I’m drinking bottled waterFlushing out the toxinsVomiting and coughing feeling closer to the coffinThan I ever hadEvery morning that I arriveIs a night that I surviveJust to be alive – sipping chaiListening to my favorite DJCommunicate the music, what my rhymes would sayIf they were writtenWith a needleTo the grooveOf a paperStylus to papyrus, record to the playerIt’s more than just therapy or excessive energyI undo the mechanism meant to imprison meSpirituallyThe view from up is not enoughI dwell below to find the god that I rebuffRedesigned, redefineed what it meant to be divineKnowing that She meant for me to rhymeSo I Give thanks to the most, the least that I can doI wear this skin to find the me inside of youWhen I dream that I’m dreaming I feel most aliveSacrifice nights, Write to surviveProper hand gestures conjure ancestorsDrinking from the bottle that was meantFor the message that was sent from the tired and the trueI give thanks to the most, the least that I can doOur Fathermy art is Heaven, hallowed beThe drums beating me and my tongue into submissionI can hardly speak breathing this indelible highFrom an endless supply of Godspeed, and I needA brand new prayer to readSeems the old ones grew tons of mold cuz they’re narrow as hellSometimes they be thinking that this heavens for saleWorse than that, they still think God is a maleButMoms used to hang up pictures of white JesusFist clutching rosary beads, over the yearsI began to question this Father AlmightyMade in His image but don’t look nothing like meBut we be the children of the most highGhosts of the colonized lost in the timeRedesign, redefine what it meant to be divineKnowing that She meant for me to rhyme
