Aint no love on this street
Aint no love in this park if you donâ€™t believe me
Come through here when itâ€™s dark

SET THE TRAP CATCH THE MOUSE
STOP THE MADNESS IN MY HOUSE

Police? You donâ€™t see them that much
They only come around when they want to rough us up
You see the meat wagon all the time and CSI investigating crime
The ambulance roars through here all the time too
Smells like blood and death to me
Looks like a zoo

SET THE TRAP CATCH THE MOUSE
STOP THE MADNESS IN MY HOUSE

I passed a mugging the other day
The mugger stopped mugging
Looked up at me and said hey
I looked at him and said wuz up
Kept walking and looked the other way
I recognized the face it was an old classmate

SET THE TRAP CATCH THE MOUSE
STOP THE MADNESS IN MY HOUSE

The prostitutes are getting younger everyday
A pimp was chasing one and she ran my way
Then he caught her and proceeded
To put that smack down on her
She looked up at me as I passed
I said hey then looked the other way
I recognized the face it was my neighbors
14-year-old daughter

SET THE TRAP CATCH THE MOUSE
STOP THE MADNESS IN MY HOUSE

That rotten smell is brain decay
Folks around here donâ€™t use them so they go to waste
They are alive though theyâ€™re dead

10-year-old gangbanger
9-year-old dope slingers
My nephew says it takes heart to shoot a man
No all it takes is a gun in your hand and pull the trigger, man
I smell misery, blood and pain
When it rains I smell wet misery, blood and pain

SET THE TRAP CATCH THE MOUSE
STOP THE MADNESS IN MY HOUSE

I canâ€™t get dressed for another funeral
I canâ€™t do it I just canâ€™t go
I went to a homeboys wedding
It sure was nice 6 weeks later
My man killed his wife

SET THE TRAP CATCH THE MOUSE
STOP THE MADNESS IN MY HOUSE

I see this sh*t on daily basis
Going down with familiar faces
Donâ€™t talk to me about change
These people out here are losing their sane
Babies crying cause their stomachs full of air
Mama on the corner and she donâ€™t care
I walk down the block under my shoulder I tuck a book
I keep a pen and a pad so I get strange looks
I hear gunshots so I hit the ground
There is nothing like it, guns have a distinctive sound
When you here POP, POP, POP you better get down

SET THE TRAP CATCH THE MOUSE
STOP THE MADNESS IN MY HOUSE

Helicopters fly so low you can look at the ground and see the shadow
I canâ€™t go in a store without being followed around
I get so mad I just want to knock something down
Why give them a reason to shoot me in the back
Just put your merchandise and money on the counter
And step the hell back

They think everybody black is on crack
Selling or on smack or out to jack
The police stopped me the other day
Questioning me about my tattoo
I told them I got it because I was born feeling blue
They accused me of being gang affiliated
This profiling sh*t I really hate it

SET THE TRAP CATCH THE MOUSE
STOP THE MADNESS IN MY HOUSE

I went to visit my mother who lives on the other side
She was telling me that a friend of hers had died
I saw my sister and before I could say hi
She told me a friend of ours just got killed in a drive by
I looked at my brother and he said donâ€™t even look my
Way I donâ€™t have any good news to report today
A friend of mines just got killed yesterday

SET THE TRAP CATCH THE MOUSE
STOP THE MADNESS IN MY HOUSE

OTHER POEMS WRITTEN BY The Immortal Wize

Here We Go Again

the water is getting deeper waves are getting higher earth is on a warpath wind is calm for now I hear there will be fire next time but what about this time if you were given a chance for one last dance would you take it or stand with your back against the wall watching everyone else have a ball while Babylon fall the last hurrah then "Hip Hip Hurray" do not fear be not afraid at the close of the day night gone fall on us all while waiting for the electricity to come back on making a promise is not the same as making a point the drift been gotten prior to what's been done, before is a current past event

Spirals Of Smoke

be informed to get in formation currently the new currency is information be not uninformed action is required activate desire it ain't over until the unsung sing It's Done do not retire there will always be fire to start new beginnings it doesn't matter who's winning we will win win and win again it is written

All Points

when you stuck you believe in something you can't get out of when you blocked you believe you can't get ahead because something is in the way when you flow you believe you unstoppable when you open you believe you walking around without clothes when you can't let go you believe you can't let go what we believe got us under control when you believe you can fly levitation is no longer impossible to achieve

No Two Ways About It

there's a old say that goes you have to laugh to keep from crying I get it I'm laughing but not cause I want to cry for any particular reason you know that idiom it never fails it means it happens every time once we recognize we're out of our league it's wise to pursue a league of our own I'm smiling I have something to smile about that don't have nothing to do with what's going on in the world something I can't do nothing about on that note "Uh Oh" is an expression of alarm dismay and means it's too late "it's about to go down"

Enthrall (Repost)

got these broken wings I don't know why I never could fly I never wished for such a thing so many others dream so many others sing I wish and I wish on other things like we all, wakeup at the same time How bout that? we can all celebrate you...know have a good time fun, without, someone getting beside themselves pulling out a gun killing another mothers son or someone's baby girl, we'll just sit around talking about what we're going to do with all the wealth sadly the mule has died of natural causes but, there's plenty of acres and homes to be had now if I could just, find that genie, I got a few more to settle the score

It Gets Messy

waiting for something I want hope and wish to happen is like watching a mouse hole real close while holding a bat

On The Heels Of The Sun

a Butterfly abandons her egg her offspring is left behind without a mother to cling to some would think doomed from the start giving into our circumstance is refusal to change everyone gets a chance a Caterpillar cannot transform into a Butterfly if it die before its/it's time the light is often taken off the Caterpillar and shown on the Butterfly the mother of a Caterpillar is a Butterfly she gives birth to the one who is destined to transform she's the one who gives birth to change the Caterpillar is one who comes out the dark into the light where one come from does not determine where one will end up

The Ripple (Repost)

trying hard is not trying hard enough enough we have to put faith in the sun that it will shine again even when the sky is gray everything around us falls apart as long as our heart is beating we're not defeated nor are we destroyed something goes wrong we must be strong it won't be long hold on here we go back to the dome in some form or another if you're with someone then you got each other if we build our foundation strong enough to float how can we go under let lightening strike we're made of thunder take a sip from the power within put the cup down raise the pen we write to win this is a conquest not a contest a inkwell of consciousness

Nov 5

my distaste for voting season is people act like their talking to children telling them don't forget to brush their teeth asking them did they wash their hands telling them what they should do what they need to do what they have to do people act like they get paid to remind grown folk to vote who's going to know you did if they didn't see you do it

Hush It Up (Repost)

m whispering quietly~~~ trying not to waken the beast taking away, what happiness we saved, my black...ness is all I have, you might laugh but it's enough for me wouldn't want to be any other nationality, created most hated so proud of the people though we may be fading in a fleeting moment victims of unlawful and illegal occultic underhanded dealings the truths that are being revealed has reached out and killed many in hidden colors there are some who read the fine print, those who do not fear the number 13 know the underlined truth in the Amendment though I may shake a bit like an aftershock after a California earth quake trembles, my hands are steady my finger are not to nimble to quietly tap the tree, give my people dap empowering them to empower others this is how we can will and still glean
