The Ebb and the Flow    Titled by Doc.  10/12/14


                        
Follow the rules or get swallowed whole,
consumed in one swoop;

False,
fraudulent suckers are not worth 2 scoops,
dried up like sun dried raisins,
they are like cattle in a pasture,
strictly grazing missing the truth,
mental too loose;

Trying to learn everything you yearn,
however you still rocking a processed perm,
trying to fit in,
never knew that you are the true hue,
lost so long you forgot how to stand strong;

Follow the game,
elevate with the change,
nothing remains the same,
from seeds to trees,
the ones that provide us with oxygen to breathe;

Inhale the fumes or get consumed and placed in a nameless tomb,
never resting in p.e.a.c.e because you refused to pack heat;

Pound for pound,
fist to fist,
but as time evolved,
now to solve problems the answers revolve,
two to the chest,
one to the head,
make sure your brother or sister is dead;

Doing their job and none the wiser
to who it is that arranged for the hit…
