Corruption and Justice Collide


done traveled to lands far passed the sands of Sudan
swam up and down the Nile before the f.b.i had my name on
government file;
shot ball with the dream,
hit 'em with sky hooks like Kareem;
flew side by side some wrighteous brothers,
when they were discovered history left me out like souls from flesh at Wounded Knee;
been to Neptune in June;
talked to Noah when I felt out of tune,
told me one of his son's would soon be doomed;
Jacob and Joseph were know as the chosen,
while my words are only spoken;
spiritually gifted uplifting souls to unfounded dimensions;
sucked into the blackhole
and spit out right before the truth was exposed;
composed symphonies that ended with Hamlet's final soliloquy;
Othello offered me his crown,
but the Father told me to gracefully turn him down;
Ghanghis tried to fool me with his Khan,
so I told him the war has already been won;
Napoleon tried to sale me a Louisiana Purchase,
but a poor man's pride isn't easily pushed aside;
I was in the Lion's Den when Daniel was tossed in for no apparent reason,
told me undying faith would get us out of that dark place;
I was with Malcolm when he stood by that window,
my A-R15 prepared to split spleens,
all he said was " My Brother By Any Means"

was on the balcony with Martin,
told me he wish he had a vest
cause he knew gats were about to start sparking,
died preaching non-violence
now when ever I see his name there's always violence,
never silence in our land only homicides of the noble,
young,
and Bonafide;
I heard the raven as it gently tapped on Edger Allen Poe's front door;
Mya told me how to become a mental picture painter better than (Michael) Angelo;
wrote prose in verse for the 1st Pope to recite in his church;
gentiles labeled me wild cause I was born with the glow of a golden child;
extracted Excalibur from it's resting stone,
but put it back cause my well is strong;
fled Camelot cause Queen gueniver loved me alot;
was part of the "Talented Tenth"
but had to dip cause I believe that 100% can enhance to this,
but De Bois was caught inside his own tangled W.E.B;
Souls of Black Folks grabbed my attention,
but for some reason didn't heighten my mental suspension
only raised my suspicions about Blacks once they acquire a little bit of position;
concentrated in camps on how to escape and kill the Nazi's reigning champ;
I hit-ler with phrases that negated his propaganda,
had his followers questioning their own standards,
gave them a better overstanding of what their leader was truly planning;
now I witness planes engulfed in flames every 11th of September,
tragedy is a human reality that's hard not to remember;
so I continue to strive to remain alive
consumed inside a world where
Corruption and Justice will always Collide
