The Universe Surrenders

97525403f7cfebfd3cf5c10f98ec24d1They say that a lotus flower can only bloom in the mud and peace can only be found in poverty

That a fool that knows they are a fool is truly wise… They say that life is suffering

They say that what goes around comes around, the karma; my dharma

They say that to take a journey as to meditate can be a key to enlightenment and that my worldly desires can only be a burden I carry along with me

They also say love is a burden but, after  I am in love and that is something I will forever carry

I belong to an infinite universebong among the endless stars. So I bow my head to the way

I send out my positive energy to my mother earth of which is my home; and like the stars; my energy is infinite

My dreams are constantly speaking with me…

It was her birthday.

I roled to the party in the trunk of a sudan

My house

Too hot too handle I put the pot Into The Pan

Took em to my spot, got the x in hand

I’ll blast so I get blasted I aint scared

I put the boogie in the boogie man

Barely a man, not even legal but I’m dealin’

 

Crip walkin’ not a crip

Saskwatchin my Timbo’s

It’s ya birthday bitch

I got an itch’ to hit the endo

Just.

Havin’ a lil fun wit the shit that I remember.

Went for a walk to clear my head.

I Just left the cornerstore.

Passing the middle school.

The K-9 Unit Takes a Right on Wood St.

An ambulance was shortly behind.

Old woman walks with her walker down the middle of a busy street.

I look around for speeding cars; I always worry about this woman.

My groceries are heavy as I watch the skyline at the end of the block.

Its muggy outside; hot and moist as I cross abandoned or broken homes.

The phone rings.

We talk about how we’re getting older.

And its hard to watch.

People die.

Yo, I heard it’s said the revolution won’t be televised
But in the land of milk and honey there’s a date you gotta sell it by
Otherwise it just expires and spoils
And these folks jump out the pot when the water too hot
Cause the fire boils inside
You go to church to find you some religion
And all you hear is connivin’ and gossip and contradiction and
You try to vote and participate in the government
And the muh’fuckin’ Democrats is actin’ like Republicans
You join an organization that know black history
But ask them how they plan to make money and it’s a mystery
Lookin’ for the remedy but you can’t see what’s hurtin’ you
The revolution’s here, the revolution is personal
They call me the political rapper
Even after I tell ’em I don’t fuck with politics
I don’t even follow it
I’m on some KRS, Ice Cube, Chris Wallace shit
