Who are you?

Are you among the
Doctor Kings or Medgar Evers
Of the world

Do you daydream inventions, or
Invent fantasies of better things
As morning’s breeze
Sway you “to” and “fro”

Do you know (who you are)

Do you know the RICHness
Of your family (heritage) tree
Deeply rooted in this American history

Do you feel the pride
Of your fore-parent’s ride
Along success lane
Where hard work and determination
Ordained them successful citizens
Of these here United States
(of liberty)

Do you know who you are

Are you a problem child, or
(Problem solver)

Do you harbor
Deep-seated fantasies of
Logarithmic functions
Where the conjunction “AND”
Means the multiplication of
Algebraic equations
With derivations
That leads to the summation
Of you

(IS THAT TRUE)

Do you know who you are?

Are you a (wordsmith)
Who air-brush ageless pages
With flaring penmanship
That lifts the spirits of those who wish
An horizon’s kiss
…A sunset so beautiful it touches the soul
~ Of even the most casual observer ~

Do you know (who you are)?

Do you see in me
A future no one else can see
Would you be there for me
When the chips are down
And the sound of death
Knocks on my door

Can we stand as one
Against the raging storm
As well as…the calming sea

Do you know who you are?

Do you?
 
Yes i know and will stand
beside you as da man
a brother who knowz thou will
and understand peace be still
yes i will be there when death comes
compromise my knowledge paint
and never run
yessss! it's all true
what i see deep inside you
Da King of wisdom slash
the future and past
