Lost Social Scene Queen

I Did Not Just Disappear

I did not just disappear 

You took me away from here

You did away with my body 

You left me lying there

I was trying to run 

But I could not escape

I knew the end was near 

And this was my fate

I handed you, my children 

My hands bound, behind my back

I could not escape 

My enemies attack

The masked faces

Who are they

Their veils finally dropped

Females I trusted 

In my twisted death plot

The last person I seen 

Last hug I give

My only prayer 

Lord, watch over my kids

I wanted to be famous

That is what they all have said 

But the fame I wanted 

I did not want to be dead

My ghost will haunt them all

Until I am found

Right now, I am missing

But I am sti...

They Did Not Want

They did not want you to read
because they knew you would find it 
So they gave you their books to read 
With hopes to keep you blinded
They gave you their non-hue-man
No wool hair but straight
No bronze skin
And they told you never to question
Their religion
They forced you to believe 
If you did not listen
You were willingly beat
The food they gave you to eat 
It was mainly the leftovers
Unhealthy food, your head it went over
All of it is poison against you 
To keep the black man and woman lost and confused
When you are ready
Your Spirit will reach
Activate that 3rd eye 
Your Spirit will teach 
The haze  that once covered our mental eyes
We see things for what they are
We can see the lies
His-stories(History)
My-stories(Mystery)

Black Face

They divide and separate us... racial ignorance
Saying Black skin is not the right skin
But somehow, your Light skin is accepting
Just not the Black/Brown skin
Although all of it is Melanin
What they are telling you
To make you hate you
The spectrum of light
The dark hue creates you
When you accept you
they don't understand what you are thinking
When they look at your naps, the hair, the Kinky
But it's hard being rejected
So you want to be accepted
So the Black you try to erase
The other eyes still a Black face
The melanin trace
So why is their division amongst the Black race

The Warning

The Warning

Good morning mom/dad
I will see you later
I am on my way to school
In the cafeteria talking and eating
Gunfire erupts everywhere,
Now it is on the news
I said I would see you later
I had no clue it was my time to go
Bloody covered tables and doors
Black and white lifeless bodies all across the floor
I can hear people screaming
Momma, I'm bleeding
Why can't anyone hear me
So many people running away
I'm trying to turn the clock back
Lord, please let me skip this day
Prior to my death
There were pictures of real threats
No one took her seriously
No one expected deaths
She threatened to kill black people
this girl at my school
Nothing was really done
Because it wasn't against school rules
The school didn't take it seriously
Although the parents were outraged
She ...

I Know Me

You can deny who I am
You even can deny me 
But the root of every tree represents me
I know some don't understand my mentality
Roots deeply connected
My Spirituality
Some want me to deny me
But I know the truth my-story
 The real Mystery

Today I Release

Today I release fear 

Today I release doubts

Today I am turning my thoughts around

Today I take control of my life

I stand in the DIVINE Power of the Universe

I am which that I am 

The things in which I speak

I become

Whatever I draw unto nigh

Shall I received in good grace

The positive vibes in which I share

Shall be returned to me

I speak Love

I am Love

Amen

Amen-Ra

Oh Lord

 You keep repeating the scriptures

 But not seeing the bigger picture

Ask and you shall receive

But my rules, you have never taken heed

You preach to everyone else

But your words are not believed

Oh Lord can you hear me

The words in which I speak

I repeat them quite so often

But the Blessings are incomplete

You ask God for a favor

But he declines based on your behavior

Oh Lord can you hear me

Please forgive me for my sins

A forgiving God I am

I continuously extend my hand

Sew your seeds accordingly

You will reap the Blessings of the Land

Just Me

Sweet Caramel colored brown skin
Different variations of my melanin
Different variations of my melanin
Slanted dark brown eyes
Full round lips
White teeth a small gap
Curvaceous breasts
Mommy stomach with the mother line
My life purpose is Divine
Small hips but round
Skin Melanin dipped and sun-kissed.

Questions

You said Medusa
Don't stare or she would turn us into stone
Found out it was just the envy of the black woman
You wanted your men to leave us alone
Head full of snakes
And all along it was our dreads
Talking about turning them into stone
and they would be dead
Jealous of our nappy hair
Body and beauty hypnotizing
You got mad your men cared
You made us wear a scarf and cover-up our hair
Because you know we are roots and our antennas are there
All plants need energy
The Direct sunlight
The heat protects our bodies
and help us to fight
You gave us your Bible
You said to believe in your son
But we did not understand , that it was truly our sun
You said Moses parted the sea
But as I dive into the ocean floor
It's sea mosses that I see
You had us looking at the man
And it was a plant with energy
Now we innastand

Respect Me Gal

Respect me gal 
You hear me
Say yes sir master 
The language of the slaves' captivity
All I heard when I was little 
Were these words and respect me
As I grow up
I instill in thee
Yes sir yes mam When talking to me
I want them to behave
But I want responses
Like the captured slaves
They call it respecting 
I see it infecting
Stuck in traditions
Slave superstitions 
Break a mirror
Bad Luck 7 more years
Slave instilled fears 
Cheers to the master
We follow our peers
Raising a generation
Into hells damnation 
Respect me gal
You hear me 
I'm sorry Mr. 
No chains
I AM FREE
