Gotta get it off my chest

11-01-06 Chad Harris Xzavier

Natural born servants because we were not considered human

While we are using and abusing drugs seen as good for nothing but screwing

Have dynamite in our brains just gotta light the fuse

Have been misused, now we subdue, as if there were nothing else to do

Our ancestors would have loved for a chance to fight back

But we don’t do that, we just lie flat, make illegal stacks off of selling crack

They give us opportunities and they know we won’t take it

Give us our own scholarship funds, the grades however they know we won’t make it

Affirmative action requires employers to hire a percentage of African Americans

“I’m so sorry, you are better qualified but I need to hire a Black man”

We are treated as if we cannot get anything on our own

Seems to me like they think we are still property that they own

We need to redefine the sign of blackness to that it represents empowerment

We are indeed human, can do great things for the race because we are heaven sent

Blacks and Whites are not so different, disagree and I have something for you

While we shoot for gang boundaries and soil, they bomb for countries and foreign oil

Don’t get it twisted; they enslaved us because they feared us

Man fears what he does not understand so they kept us handcuffed

We have the mental capacity to create the unimaginable

Yet society brainwashes our kids to only care about what is currently fashionable

Plan your futures out and set realistic goals to be completed

Your brain is a pet that will protect you for life; just needs knowledge so indeed feed it

As long as they hand out freebies and give advantages, you best to take it

If we can only learn to work together in this world, 1 day we best to remake it

SHOUT OUTS TO THAT DUDE NAMED DEEZY!!!

5th Poem -- In a Decade (Where I wanna be in 2016)

In a Decade

10-17-06 Chad Harris Xzavier

Making mils and celebrating with my peers

Is where I see myself in a good ten years

I want to live the good life and everything that comes with it

Give my offspring real big shoes to try to fill in

Get my money and live without a care

Poverty and starvation will no longer be a scare

As a kid I always wanted to have heavy cream

Now I can put realization into that once distant dream

Won’t blow all my money because that’s both dumb and sad

I want to be able to reimburse the publicity chick, my mum and my dad

Buy a couple of cars, maybe even a house or 2

Can not forget about the fashion so I’ll cop about 100pairs of shoes

Gotta be smart with my money so I’ll probably invest

So if a deal doesn’t go as planned, I won’t have to stress

I’ll take care of the friends who were there from the start

I can’t allow pieces of paper to cause us to drift apart

I must think about my future so I’ll settle down and get a wife

Have 10 kids and embark on the journey of family life

By the time my wife is in gestation

My unborn seed will have a paid college education

I won’t be here forever so it is my job to set them up

Teach them the foundations to live their lives and to try their luck

Having money is never mandatory but it will provide some really fun days

This is where I see my life and myself in a good decade!
