Another Mr. Ruckus joint!
See this poetic vibe is all about expression
A lyrical discussion
See this is poetic beauty
How we come together in unity
Combining our creativity
To hit those with a dose of reality
My poetic family
We are the prophets of the 21st century
We take thoughts and break it down
Every verb adjective noun and pronoun
We have to open people eyes
And remove the disguise
Of lies and alibis
When it comes to negativity we must deny
Lets talk about improving this society
Erasing racism and improving equality
Lets try to remove negative substance
Trying to embrace knowledge and erase ignorance
Civil rights was not made for one type of race
Jobs were not suppose to be given out by the color of ones face
Rise of unemployment and welfare
The lack of affordable healthcare
We live in a nation that helps other countries
But what about in our own backyard poverty and humanity
Babys having babies
They want to skip being a child and go straight to being a lady
No job no income coming in
So they want us parents to compensate for their sins
Today I awaken to the sounds of the streets
I see the drug dealers at the corner where they normally meet
Pharmaceutical technicians
They accommodate anyone with an addiction
Liquor bottles here there everywhere
Where the childrens play do people really care
We need less dealers and more honest preachers
Less crooked government officials and more good teachers
The 6oclock news
Shows murders, suicides burglary and abuse
The sadness
The madness
Of everyday society
The reality
Of this world today
Lets pray
That God answers our calls
And the sins of this world will fall
And unity
And equality
Will be everyones reality
So this and everyday
I pray
Until the negativity cease
And knowledge and understanding increase
Old ways of thinking we have to release
Until this world our world is at peace
A mind is a terrible thing to waste
So dont hesitate
Lets debate
Relate
To our fate
Before we are called to heavens gate
Peace
