 Preparing for WAR…                       7/16/2013


They live amongst us,
But don't consider us  apart of them;
They don't see the blatant display of overt racism;
So the time has arrived to let the fire of thine eyes
Burn wild;
No longer will my acts be civil,
No longer will I live a life that's trivial;
Sick and tired of being considered less than minimal;
I remember when I was judged by a group of my peers
Now I witness juries filled with pale-skinned folks
And I was raised to believe that color didn't matter
When it came to honor and valor
But now that the curtain has been removed
the truth Is no longer concealed;
 
I will reveal my chrome plated steel because
I refuse to go out like Trayvon Martin,
I'm holding court in the streets-guns sparking,
When they kill me they better bring the army,
Navy,
And the marines
Because I'm training in spiritual,
Chemical,
And mental warfare…
Preparing…
