feeling conflicted...about the feeling
dealing with truths unlocking
trying to unravel the mystery behind why
touching the winds vibration
comforting sky felt clouds wandering
maybe this process is wrong
or altered in some way
as the days tick by mockingly
critical decisions go unspoken
said i was joking but i was not
tinkered with a sensitive spot
where my footing wasn't sure
having to endure this predictament
has me caught curiously
between hell and indecision
choosing the next move is like a chess match
i'm surprised to be a pawn
the dawn peeks through an open window
shining light on my sullen position
sitting in this chair staring intensely
at a lost world in collapse
mapping out my prior destination finds the fork in the road
and a strange twist
my confliction rests on misguided principles
taught long ago
why haven't i let those things go?
the realization startles me
the confliction is merely an addiction
to the way i want it to be
if i desire a more productive situation
what has to change is...me
 
um i feeling this

we are the pawns
on this board
in this game of chess

but pawns have power too.
and can evict the opponent and move in their box

this was deep
black man
feeling ya

why

black man feel this
