THANKZ - GIVING .......are we thankful :nono:

We are thankful
for the food before us
for life given unto us
and living warm

but are we
truely thankful
really thankful

In a continue struggle
where many ancestor's
cross lines so we may
stand in to vote ............
make a choice
have a voice

are we thankful !

for at will kill rob & steal
take , rape & hate
our own
knockin self from home
De-thron & pro_claim
name of shame from
slavery where whips
lash our forefather back
like a creed of deed done
da cry of mother's
unborn unto poverity
mixed , stolen massa

are we thankful .......... :nono:

for the dope to feed our vains
and lost hope to mental brains
are we the people of thankz
for the betrayal of self for the
green dead president left
sour fracture dreams
lonely nights of screams
without giving
feelin rapid fire in the hood
blood run where man stood
mother's , father's cry
from da hand of a black man
in the struggling street
seem as we defeat self

are we truely thankful :nono:

inside the home
where love :love: should roam
instead :argue: broken hope
single parent was not promised
and like the yesteryears stolen
from home da mother land sold
for tea kittles , candle sticks
silver & gold worthy bodies
to da nothern A~meri~kan land
to be rule by klans men

i wanna know are we really thankful :nono:

In today liberty do it ring
we shall over come do we sing
killing hope all we bring
children cry no college dreams
for lack of funds
communities we bomb
destructional blast of self skin
black on black blazin themes
continue jailing
bruthas & sistah's
are we thankful for all we precieved
somebody tell me please please please !!!
da common ground laid
years of tears made
sweatin , hand & feet raw
from sun up to sun down
do we smile or do we frown !
is the mind still sleep
from the truth that keep us weak

Are we thankful :nono:

When we see the young empowered
body cross knowledge against da old
and say u people .....
do they not know it was
we people our Ancestor's
who died , slaved , drop bloody tears
so they can stand in the honor place
they hold without a beaten , stoned
and rip from home .....paved the way
to bridge the gaps between da color
now twist promise of furture
to a total nightmare

are we thank~ful
for the white house
and not the black house
still living in poverity & struggle
creating stress but we born
to fight the test of time
as we rise , rise and shine
wit wisdom of power

but are we thankful for this
harvest birth da Pilgrims worth
oct .....1621 the first
that spill ova like a cruse

sorry i'm just not a TURKEY
but a Black MAN
when i speak , i speak of hope
not this gobble gobble joke .... :nono:

tell me what are we truely thankful for ???
THANKZGIVING .....da untold reality.

yes written cross da dinner table
for the minds to be free before we
smile do drop a tear for the hunger
and the helpless the needed
and bless thou self for the food of
knowledge which givin da wisdom
this table is not bare of food but full
with reality and unspoken truth

and it won't be televised !!!
