The Cry From a Ghetto's Heart | Page 23

Just Love

To the distant queen, enlightened by my dreams,

Black Powered Schemes,

Uplifted Dreams,

Better things than diamond rings,

Disrespect of our Queens,

Pipe dreams passed to the youth,

We must be afraid of the truth,

Will we also have some type of excuse,

Just watch TV, we lacking of the proof,

Embarrassing reality shows,

College girls turning to hoes,

College guys gazing, into each others eyes...

Are we destined for demise,

What happened to our enterprise???

Wake up and realize that we're dying,

I'm not lying,

We infest the jails,

We must be blind, or just destined to fail,

Weigh out your value on life's scale,

We go from dodging police to even dodging mail,

They call us crabs but we can't pull ourselves out the pail,

And our progress is so slow they might as well call us snails,

But I still believe in us,

Our victory doesn't require that much,

Just Love.........
