I was raised in a place some
call the bottom I was raised
to rise at an appointed time
no matter how many times
I been down I been out of
provisions no matter how
much I lacked and no
matter what couldn't get
no slack I've been on
my knees begging those
I love to please love me
back no matter how I
felt I couldn't make
others feel the same
this back been against
the wall been backed
into corners had to
come out swinging
that's what made me
a fighter when life is
on the line new found
strength you will find
I used to say yes all
the time now I politely
decline life lessons
not like the ones learnt
in schools come with
a different set of rules
first I had to learn
how to use the tools
to build a structure of
many stories and
climb the stairs to
a roof top view
to top the bottom

Yes, my Brother. Once lowered from the womb, there is no other place to go but up! Continue to build those "rising tools". Peace and Love, M'Lowe.
