so you don't like what i have to say
not that you've been listening away
beening singing and tapdancing for too long
always to my own beat, for you this is wrong
can't feel my rhthym cuz you've got no soul
lost in your own reality, a heart stone cold
i give you warmth and you end up sunburned
through the graves of those before me upturned
but i absorb you and generate more heat
my continued strength you can't even compete
won't let you beat me down, it's been tried many times before
but I have the spirit of Robert Martin and his folklore
he could not be broken and evil made him
nevermind from what his ways may have stemmed
am I black in your eyes, all that is wrong
you only wish you could be this strong
try to "raised" me, renovate and sell me as a condominum
but only paying me the bare minimum
underestimated, degradated, integrated
my contributions always being negated
but I will not be discounted to zero
your loved ones are not my heroes
or i'd would be still riding the back the bus
and I'm called obnoxious because I cuss
well kiss my big black ***
i bare it all, and do it with class
head up high, i'm "used to" being stripped bare
it is my darkness, my beauty, this is what you beware
hiding your corrupt soul and stiff smiling face
and you say it ain't about "race"
but I'll continue to move forward, ahead
I don't find comfort in the souls of the dead.
 
stillventing...

the greasepaint comes off
i'm ready to kick ***
i'm taking names and numbers
and it seems yours is up next!
dressed in dreadlocks, baldhead, or afro
always wearing black
since that's the only way you see me
not constrains, no holds bar,
still you want to keep me in chains
ropes of your own reality
the the resistant keep me strong
AND STILL I MOVE FORWARD
