I think of you as my land
so what I can I do for my country
I'll go to war for you
I'll live and die for you
see they want to be citizens
so they can reap the benefits
but flee you first sign of hardship
but see I built a hard ship
to sail the ups and downs of life
so if catastrophe should strike
I know we'll make it through the night
just me and my pen
inscribing the legacy of me
to place in a lump of coal to
to find the diamond with in me
I poor my heart in you
while other rape you of your purity
In order to raise a monarchy
and place them selves paramount
while I will gladly be your slave
just to lay your foundation
and let you bring the world together
as one unified nation
See you the you the big city
and every one wants to be the bright light
but you only need light when it's to dark to see
and when the fame is the light
that will be the darkest day in poetry

Open your eyes
A tear for a nation blinded from segregation
With they own interpretation for the value of creation
I’m black is that the result of some skin discoloration Or am I just one of gods many beautiful creations
Shed the blood of the innocent
Guilty of being different
A man choose life or death
When he can't choose it for himself
Base his poor decisions on his self perceived wealth
See a problem with a race because it doesn't reflect self
See
If we were all one color and all believed in one thing
It would still be one person who would find one thing
And disrupt the balance of everything Just so he or she can sing I’m better
Understand
As long as we see simple difference
We will never see equality
All races stand together side by side
Do not follow me
Its okay your skin is different
Cause people all that I see
So the question is, what do you see?

Crossing the line
something make me feel so wrong
tho her man is on that drake
cuz he so far gone
If i tell her how i feel then I've done him wrong
so i'm here in the middle
just thinking up my strategy
but anyway i go
someone gone be mad me
and i don't want the problems
either way I'm causing pain
cause how can i lay clam
to land that bared his name
a dollar relationship
but she looking for some change
and me and her make cents
but to him that don't makes sense
and to start an altercation would be senseless
but any path I take can lead to hurt
cause what if we don't work
then I've thrown a friendship in the dirt
with no seeds of good faith
so I know that it won't grow
if you got a answer to this
please just let know
cuz something telling l me that
I should let it go
but if I did that
then I guess I'll never ever know
how we could go
all cuz I'm scared to let go
so use to usual
that his refusal to call me bro
is enough to make me say no
In realty i just don't know
