Awakening

From the first moment we met I knew you were special
So beautiful and sensual a poetic intellectual
The best of you is inside I want it to come out
And show a real man what a real woman’s about
Your smile can light up dark minds my heart finds
Joy in your countenance through these hard times
If Love blinds then I fear I’ve seen the light
When I stare into your eyes the feeling is a delight
I see right and at night you too are in my dreams
But the fight and black plight makes things not what they seem
I have to bring truth to the masses of the R.O.O.T.S.
We are Africans God’s people and I am living proof
So if we do become more than friends in the end
I hope we cause an awakening for the sleeping
Black women and men



Black Word

In the beginning was the Word and the Word was black
Like ink on paper an undeniable fact
That God created light while He was in darkness
And the Black Man in His image but the devil is heartless
So he deceived the world into thinking he was god
So bright and white a shining light to all
Who can’t see beyond the physical into black matter
Only the soulful people know love is all that matters
Like the message Christ lived by and hung on a tree
So that the blind could see and all slaves could be free
We are the children of the Sun black as Solomon
With locks in our hair strong and wooly like Samson
We were the one nation who built the tower of Babel
And the ancient pyramids even the Israelites who rebelled
Left secrets behind that will stand the test of time
All of mankind is enamored by our design
We are spiritually inclined because God is in us
He is the power behind everything that makes us winners
Sinners can’t stop us though they’ve tried through the ages
Killing our prophets and assassinating our sages
Pages of history can’t be rewritten we are the living Word
Bred to build , control, and mold our will into the world
Now you know the power we hold because black don’t crack
Melanin is God given and the devil hates that
The truth will come to light and God’s children will rise
Like the sun we are one consciousness higher than the skies
