They’re tryna make these kids sexier younger and younger yo!
My friend wanted me to write a poem in 10 minutes. Here it is.
Duality
Chiseling calligraphy, clicking with the chickadees
Check the mean it’s mean is the conclusion I’d find
But sifting through a memory briskly break the brevity
Of thought within my mind and veer from off the straight line
The rule was golden, the greatest of commodities
Obviously you live by this and nothing taints or spoils
That’s what I was sold and I took it on this shopping spree
Of youth and lost receipts for returning snake oil
Told to lead by example and to follow great leaders
Saints, preachers, good and evil, see the world as black and white
And the world slowly bleeds, but they’re in the vein of Jesus
I’d toss grievances, but learned to never make a sacrifice
Keep cares inside my wallet to multiply with dollars
All the knowledge in the world doesn’t equal this CREAM
Money around everything rule by cash, holla
This duality I’ve learned exists merely in the dreams

What I ended up doing with my boring ass night…the club was at capacity and some shit happened that pissed me off so I wrote a long poem…eventually changed the wording up and put it to a beat and this will go on the mixtape. I’ll put it on soundcloud in the next couple of days.
Oh Lord, I beg of you, please forgive me
I’m sick, please, it’s clear I’ve got some demons in me
Like you need to give me a vaccine, an antidote
I’m saddened hold me, while I cut this evil, skin deep
I’m six feet, a quarter of another one, my mother comes
From a lineage where we all went to college
And they lived seasons under the summer sun, all of them
Look like this, pose the question to Darwin
You see, I almost killed a white lady today
It almost, breaks me to say, the state of my face
Was like a killer, right? It must have been like Satan was placed
In the middle and night had come, it’s sad the day has to fade
Now I remember clear as an hour ago
I had on mountains of clothes was out in the cold
Tryna check the bus schedule, hmmm, which route will it go
Then I turned around and saw this old grouch was bout to go croak
You see, I almost killed a white lady before
It’s got me frightened for more when I stride out the door
I must be a psychic of course, my mind’s with the force
And I saw it coming, I’m irresponsible, next time I should warn
You see, I almost led this white lady to death
Without a blink or a breath, laced my sphincter with Crest
What was I thinking; safety first, should put a veil on my head
Would that solve things? You’d rather me be hidden instead?
Staring down the barrel of a sterile mace bottle
Now my brain’s hollow, wishing she would spray the can auto
I would kidnap her, but I heard her scream it’s way alto
And that goes against the point of what I’d made my main cause, for
I need a lady sounding like a siren in here
To just divinely appear, making tiles of mirrors
Or just hit me with the mace until my eye’s dry of tears
So I can never see this skin again, supplier of fear
It’s sad, I almost killed a white lady today
I think the cops should take me away to my native old place
Wait, I was born up in Toronto that won’t do shit but change
The scenery and put new white ladies in danger, okay
So ummm, send me back to Africa, but leave me benefits
Hope they’ll treat me nice, they’re mean to the illegal immigrants
Didn’t know my feeble innocence would lead to grimaces
I wasn’t scared that she’d enslave me when I’d seen her on this bench
But, eh, almost killed a white lady today yo
Vybz Kartel please spot me some cake soap
I wish my skin was always like the kids out at Day-Glo
Make for the best, no, make just to break though
Blame my mama for this shit, my father for this shit
I ain’t get to choose my race, while they knew they’d have some kids
And then they put me in a place full of pride and prejudice
I’m a fucking ostentatious menace, daring to exist
You see, I almost killed a white lady today, no!
Keep the hatred embraced, go be racist, be brave souls
This nation is made for, the government queso
Apple pie, crystal meth, American staples
Almost killed this lady since she’s got a weak heart
She’s past her time anyway could use a restart
Her sight’s had a long time to deprecate too
Think I’m a robber and I’m dressed way better than you
