Black Man
Black man you have the power
To shape your destiny
But first you have to love your color
Stop selling your brothers and sisters
For the almighty dollar
We are one flesh and blood
Unless we come to realization
Our final destination
Will be extinction
From the days of Columbus
Our black brothers have captured
And sold us
To travel the middle passage
To become slaves
For those who drove carriages
It is time for us to understand
That each and every one
Is equal in the sight of the Almighty
Greet each other with a holy kiss
Show, love, care, peace
Things in our lives we have missed
Join hands and heart in unity
And let us live as one family
To shape your destiny
But first you have to love your color
Stop selling your brothers and sisters
For the almighty dollar
We are one flesh and blood
Unless we come to realization
Our final destination

Wrong Reasons to Love
Stop glorifying the don, be your own don, each and everyone can make this place a better one
Stop hating! Learn to love your fellow human.
Love from the heart! Not just when you need to take off their tong
Loving for that only is so wrong, in your heart that should not belong
How much longer will you use one another?
How much longer will you walked over your sisters and brothers?
Do not wait until things fall apart
Before you decide you need a new start.
Stop loving because you need help to climb the ladder to a better place
As soon as you reached your destination you realized your partner have an ugly face
Remember you are only saved by grace.
You will have to give an answer to the creator, not the human race.

Power of Positive Thinking
One of the chief factors of motivation is positive thinking
Positive thoughts lift your sprit when it is sinking
Not everything that is done will be to your liking
Looking on the bright side keeps you rising
Positive thinking is a catalyst from doom and gloom to boom and bloom.

Courtesy Should be Learned at Home
Courtesy should be learned at home
Your interactions with family members whether small or large numbers
Determine how effective you communicate
When you are in Rome
Growing up in a loveless atmosphere
Makes it difficult to adapt to a culture that shows love and care
Sign of nervousness shows when someone calls you dear
You stop and stare trying not to disappear in fear
Our brothers and sisters know not how to love
Things others adore, you ignore
Materials things brought at the store are used to determine blessings
Those with limited amount are ignored when confessing
Having devotion, your mouth is put in motion
Nothing genuine comes from the heart
You are acting the part, pretending to give thanks
That is the way you move up the ranks.
Other nations take care of each other; yours sell your sisters and brothers
No unity! Unable to form a strong prosperous community
You depend on others to shape your destiny
You are taught “the meek shall inherit the earth”, yes! You get 6 foot, six inches in the dirt

Dad’s First Time Baby Sitting
Dad unaccustomed to holding baby is doing his best
To comfort and assure him he can take his rest
It seems he is holding a little too hard
Baby’s skin feels as soft as lard
Why mom don’t hurry and come home
So he can relax before he fails the test
He does not want to bruise its delicate skin
It feels like a little butterfly’s wing
He is not use to nurture, he is out of his element
He has to hold on until mom gets to the tenement
First time a father, first time alone with his son, careful to do everything to be proud of his name
Knowing now he has cared for babe, life experience will never be the same.

Caring Father
Macho man
Walking with a pink hand bag
Gain a lot of stares
But he does not care
He is here
To give cheer
To his loving wife
Who is in tears
Tomorrow talking to his neighbor
About the newborn in his life
Will bring back memories of the pink hand bag
And all those stares
He will be glad he had no fear
And proved to the world he cares
For his adoring wife
And the new life
She had delivered
In this cold and shivering atmosphere
Walking with a pink hand bag

But he does not care
