Listen to the sound of a child she's just a little girl she said I tried to kill myself yesterday I'll try to kill myself today maybe I'll try to kill myself tomorrow because tomorrow is Christmas and I don't have nobody I was molested when I was 11 I've been in foster care care care care Child Protective protective protective protective Services placed me there listen to the sound of a child living on Skid Row
she said all I got is God the County, my tent and some tricks I don't want to be out here the rest of my life but I don't know who the f*** my father is and my mother is the reason I'm living here all I am is a prostitute that's all I know how to do I ain't had no school I want to learn more I don't wanna be a whore I would never rob I only steal what I need I'm only 15 I run when I see the police I wouldn't even be here to tell my story if I had died on the pills I took last night Foster mothers can't save children from sick significant others she speaks fluently liquid running between thighs when water breaks but the baby did not open its eyes it died it didn't wake she cried running away from the guy she continues to commit suicide it's evident if it were meant she surely would die
Telling her story is saving her life she said
I met a guy he taught me how to sell my body Listen to the sound of a child she's just a little girl she said I tried to kill myself yesterday I'll try to kill myself today maybe I'll try to kill myself tomorrow because tomorrow is Christmas and I don't have nobody nobody nobody nobody

PullI want to give you a reason to take action I want to influence you to do something you inherently love to do more than likely something you always been eager to do but probably too scared to I dare you to inspire you to succeed beyond your expectations I don't know who you are but you do "don't you" |
WhenceI remember a time a forgotten time a time no one remembers a time we all forgot to remember |
Got A FeelingLove Supreme wrote "we told the world" think about that for awhile take a sip swallow digest we talk to the world and we don't know who in the world is listening and we don't care who hears we are poet's we are fearless given a platform to speak enter most thoughts and feelings the inner seed the energy the frequency a vibe nation of vibration no sleep nor slumber awake to be in that number of griot's who refuse to be robots "we told the world" that we are the word personified |
First Lady Of Song (02162025)Ella was a young girl when she stepped on the Apollo stage wearing shabby clothes opened her mouth and stole the show it goes to show don't criticize the house until the door swings open and you hear what comes out |
A Quick Breeze (02162025)let's have a memorable moment we can talk about anything accept the gloomy weather pour it in a glass sip slow blow smoke smoke out the window send thoughtful signals into the ethers |
Brush Off (02162025)the thought of this is not pleasing to my mind though I dig deep to find a reason to reach an agreement the bottom line is I cannot accept or consent to issues that don't concern me |
Pockmarks (02162025)the congratulated isn't necessarily celebrated a savior is never appreciated the people are too fearful to protect em they'll reject em to save their own skin a leader is only followed to a certain point a hero ain't nothing but a fool it takes a joker to point it out to you the game being played is serious the fix is in for the gambling addictive change the world is a on going mission save the world is a impossible one mans devices is not new inventions the future outcome is a major decision destroy to rebuild is a noble suggestion |
Pockets Of Change (02162025)will we see shine tomorrow will sun appear how long will it rain when will the clouds disappear will we ever see sky again imagining a time before life got pushed inside told to stay behind the door don't come out no more to see what it's all about got a glimpse of the moon didn't have to see the whole glow to know it's full the lunar phase is clear it's a waste of time to wait for a certain kinda energy to reappear out of nowhere when its always been here |
The Loop In The Wireit's about you it's about me it's about us it's about we it's about time to stop the beef and the strife why must we fight by the stripes on our back against the ropes the least to be free we get no slack we claim they not like us when we don't like our own we go to war in our home casting stones the builder refused we come too far from when we had pride weak inside from blood we lost and continue to lose we blame them but how come when it's you when it's me when it's us when it's we in God we trust God speed is a must to save you to save me to save us to save we from self induced poisoning |
