Why Should You Miss Me

Why should you miss me?
When I was there were you aware?
Aware that I exist or was I someone you chose to dis?
Dismiss from your sight and out of your space

Unprepared

Yes, the government was unprepared
Brushed it off and didn't care
Dropped the ball, was slow to act
They knew ahead and that's a fact

Women Stop Complaining

Alright listen, when it comes to relationships and marriages
There are NO rules and do's
There is a way to win, yet you choose the way to lose

Caterpillar

The caterpillar she crawls around and around
Wondering when he'll come home to lay his head down

I Wanna Live To Tell The Story

You careless, reckless, inconsiderate person
You show no regard for human life, for another life, for even your life.

What's going on in your mind, peace is hard to find

The Fear Of A Black Man

How much more can we stand
To witness the killing of "Another Black Man? "

Words were spoken, get the "F" out the street

Roadside Assistance

Really? Is that all you are good for? Know your worth!
This is to bring awareness to outside relationships, cheaters, settlers, people who prefer to settle and have relations with someone who is in a relation with another. They do not respect nor care about the damages, affects, or consequences that can result from cheating or having an affair. Whether male or female, it applies to both cases.

If you are knowingly cheating with a married man, you are agreeing to contributing to being a person who administers "Roadside Assistance." You are called upon when he is "Broke Down" even if it's just a minor breakdown. When he is broken, mad, sad, or had a lover's spat with his wife, he runs to you for assistance and you accept the role as the mechanic. When he is having problems with his starter (yeah his wife) , and his starter is acting up, he should make efforts to find out what the problem is and the solution to fix it. That does not mean to go out and get a new starter.

Dear Black Man

Black Man, Black Man - Why do you kill yo Brother Man?

Don't you know that when you kill there will never be another?
