“From Darkness To Light”

Who is listening to my complaints?

Do my words fall on deaf ears?

When I speak on removing restraints

Do you process what you hear?

I want you to know what it is that I am thinking

When you peak through that piercing stare

Say it

If you overstand me

Let your response be crystal clear

Who is listening?

Does anyone even care?

I researched the culture we had

And the love that was there

We gave it to each other everyday

Now we do anything for pay

Caught up in the shitstem

Adults do stray

Unlike the youth

Who tell the truth

That adults find hard to display

The search for the right church

Pushes our children away

Into the streets hustling

We need Islam and RastafarI

To keep our knees from buckling

Now 7od’s student

Use to be an ugly duckling

What was hidden from the wise and the prudent

Always reveals to the babes and suckling
