Black Poetry : U 1st - *>*a Lurk/DSS collabo*<*

[Da Street So'ja]

Lurk

There’s a million points of view and I’m keeping mine focal

Expansion of the mind – it needs to be global

You can search and find but if only looking local

You’ll suppress your mind like the kind who control the total



Live and let die – do more than just exist

Cherish all the love- savor life’s kiss

Your body’s just the shell which holds your conscienceness

Experience pain – love- lost- and pure bliss



I keep my hat down walkin’ New York- talkin’ the talk

And laugh loud when there’s a spark – all in my heart

I chalk the negativity and erase it’s sad display

For I can’t allow the bull**** to take away my day



I play all my cards never keepin’ them hidden

For those who hide their scars never really end up livin’

Your body is the temple – your mind is the prison

Knowledge is the key that will free your known existence



I’ve been spreading love for years -Wiping clean their tears

Meeting angels in the bars drinking from some empty beers

And I once shook the hand of a self described leader

Who preached the word of “God” but never looked deeper



I traveled long and short- I traveled far and wide

What I learned is most people are all the same inside

We don’t want war – we want peace and change

It happens with YOU first- not Obama or U.S.A


DSS

I see you there inside the concrete cubicle
no fanfare for life to what you consider suitable
a mule with no conscious is why they ridicule
our fear of death makes us look pitiful

first it was village to village then country to country
now it’s planet to planet
few really understand it
this has nothing to do with how you’re handlin'
this is a global con-struck
where we hate women to be women
and men be men again

see we’re on the clock
2012 but there nothing to fear
As long as u know when there is a earthquake
There are aftershocks
And your psyche can’t be contained by master locks
And what does your scripture say what do once
The pastor drops

Flock thee my little sheep
Your life comes cheap
The matrix defines what you speak
We NOW reached a NEW saga

And oh yea

IT RUNS DEEP!
