i can see it
you and me
feeling the warm breeze
as we begin to
...
not only am i a sweet lady
i am a sweetdiva
i will accept your love
and expect nothing
...
look into my eyes
and see what you can
see the love and faith
i have in this man
...
on the backs of babies
you bring the bling
into popular society
on the backs of babies
...
a small child sits upon her stoop
gazing upon the goings on of the block
thinking about what she wants to be
when she grows up
...
the way life was
is something life
should never be
verbally and physically
...
i want a love
i want a love that makes me want no other
a love that makes me want
an older brother
...
black man
black man
where have you gone
i miss you so much
...
broken bones
broken hearts
broken spirits
the cries of the lonely and helpless
...
look at yourself
your hands are stained and tainted
by this beautiful picture you think you've painted
your selling your soul for a piece
...
