Stop The Hate, Unity & In These Times



Bruh, I know your up but it’s getting late
 I got to make peace with you
 Hommie I have bitten off more then I could chew
 I’m sweating from the new day’s sun
 now I know your in for a bit of fun
 you got your trash barrels over by a raccoon
 now go clean up your room
 but I need to return to the basics & keep it real
 many dismiss this thought as no big deal
 we got hustlers on the street selling crack
 working so hard today can give you a heart attack
 yet my chief aim is to hold my head up high to the sky
 got many thoughts & a dozen of pots in my sink
 can’t even dismiss this earthly bliss in a time well spent in thought
 the shadows outside block my inner pain
 not having love in my heart is driving me insane
 who said that life was fair when your driving in the fast lane
 not sense Lois Lane & Clark Kent made a dent
 Stop all this hate that going around
 so we got Trump comb over in his ivory tower
 blind eyes of bats and wheels that squeal
 got junk in your trunk saying no big deal
 I’m going to keep it real start honoring your mother and father
 I know what your saying why even bother
 It’s good to stay in school & obey the golden rule
 many hustlers are in jail cause they all seem to fail
 by pool sticking & kicking it where their nose don’t belong
 like Rodney King said can’t we all just get along
 got reverend Al & Jessie Jackson always looking for some action
 return to your first love before its to late call this fate
 merciful one come take this chip off my shoulder
 stop this senseless fighting as are nation grows a bit colder
 just be happy for who you are in the inside
 instead we choose to hide behind a plate of glass
 smoking your grass no one in this life gets by on a free pass
 systems blasting & the radio’s on
 it’s never too late to hear the end of this song
 got beggars crying & I’m not lying
 get fish to eat but I’m not frying
 Stop listening to hells lies cause you know Satan is lying

 

 

Unity

Come take out your bible
 Let us start a revival
 Unification is the plan
 Grab your bothers hand
 We shall all live to understand
 The drunkard in the gutter is still are brother
 This nation is drifting further apart
 Blown away by Satan’s fiery darts
 Look to uphold one another and pray
 Others may claim it ought not be that way
 We all need unity you see
 Let us break through all the hate & negativity
 The black, brown, yellow & red
 What is going on inside our heads
 Stand tall with the gay, trans & straight
 Stop all this violence with deep hate
 While Trump is in his ivory tower
 We all need to relax & take a hot shower
 This is the time the moment the hour of power
 Flirting faces in certain traces
 Got folks out running the bases
 Stand up for who you are on the inside
 Many just want to play games & run away to hide
 but these are desolate times yet we settle
 for ill but faded rhymes
 Both Jessie Jackson & Reverand Al wants you to join hands to be a pal
 Please stop the racisim my man
 Seek for unification as a plan
 Not a break on a long vacation
 Plant seeds of kindness
 Close up wounds that bind us
 Learn to take baby steps in the sand
 Like Obama once said, "Yes We Can".
 Stop sticking it to the man
 May have to reach through party lines
 Lift your head up high with a face that shines
 Pray with all of your might
 Stop living each day by sight
 With time your faith will grow
 May have to knock the wind out of your sail to inflate your ego
 Love will keep us together and the way we should go
 Let’s look above for the heavenly love
 Merciful one come take this chip off my shoulder
 Stop the senseless fighting as our nation grows colder
 In time we shall shine
 Don’t turn around when your hands on the plough
 Unity is where we should all be
 Living in America the home of both the brave & free

 

 

In These Times

 

Can't we read between the lines
 another pardon but people starving
 North Korea's little man
 we are going to build a wall from a know it all
 in these times I stake my claim
 not for power nor for fame
 it's a shame we came this far to discover
 from a president with a comb over
 where is the love & stop all the hate
 call it fate a new position for your intuition
 these are your marching orders to proceed with love
 coming down out of a hand with love
 many suffer in silence invading all the violence
 in these times we must stand in line
 not to pretend that everything's fine
 we have become socially wandering wizards
 trying to drain the swamp & then what
 the whole political scheme make me want to throw up
 got babies having babies with abortion on demand
 when will we ever live to understand
 don't turn your backs when saluting are country's flag
 there are lines being drawn out in the sand
 hopefully someday all will understand
 In these times we have created a rhyme
 got you broke down to your last thin dime
 yet keep your chin up you can surely shine
 all things beautiful in its time
