I LOOK AROUND AND SEE TALENT SOME RECOGNIZE THE POWER, SOME SELF-DENY AND CLAIM THEY HAVEN’T SOME RECOGNIZE THE GIFT AND UPLIFT WHILE SOME AGONIZE AS IF THEIR CHANCES ARE MISSED THE MOST CREATIVE PEOPLE ARE WILLING TO TAKE A RISK YOU DONT NEED TO TAKE A SHOT, YOU DONT NEED TO TAKE A HIT ALL YOU DO IS TAKE THE SCRIPT AND RIP IT UP, AND START FRESH FORGET CONVENTIONS LET THE NEW DIMENSION MANIFEST IF YOU CAN HARNESS THAT ENERGY, WE BECOME MARVELOUS REMARKABLE, ON FIRE LIKE ARSONISTS MUCH BRIGHTER AND SMART WITH THIS DOING WHAT THEY SAY YOU CANT LIKE RHYMING WITH ORANGES THAT WAS UNRELATED BUT WHAT HARM IS THIS??? WE PICK AND CHOOSE WHEN WE SPITTIN' JEWELS OR WHEN WE SPITTING VAINGLORY, WHICH IMPRISONS YOU THE ONLY THING THAT RULES KINGS IS THEIR OWN GREED TAKE WHAT THEY WANT UNTIL THEIR STUPID SELF OD's WE ALL HAVE GOALS, GO ALONE AND YOU’LL GET THERE FAST BUT IF WE GO TOGETHER, I GUARANTEE GOALS ARE SURPASSED WE’LL GET SO FURTHER IN THE PATH, BEYOND IMAGINATION IF WE LEARN TO USE COOPERATION THE TALENT THAT WE HAVE IS THE POWER OF OUR NATION THE BETTER WE COLLAB, THE BETTER OUR FOUNDATION ASK ANY ARCHITECT, ANY BRICK MASON WE NEED ALL THE HELP WE CAN GET, IF WE SKY SCRAPING PATIENCE….YALL KNOW BOUT THAT VIRTUE IMAGINE IF WE MADE EFFORT ATTRACTIVE LIKE A PERFUME YOU SMELL THE SWEAT FROM MY SWEATER? THAT MEANS I’M NOT CHILLIN, I’M TRYIN TO GET BETTER I’M ACTUALLY INDEBTED TO MY WORDS AND INDEBTED TO ENDEAVORS SO YES I AM A LIL STRESSED & YES I FEEL THE PRESSURE WHO WE CALL “THE BEST” IS SO SUBJECTIVE SO REALLY WHO CARES? IT’S ALL IN THE PERSPECTIVE! ALL I KNOW IS I WANT MY CITY TO BE IMPRESSIVE BALTIMORE CITY, THE WORLD THINKS WE’RE AGGRESSIVE WHAT IF WE COULD FLIP IT ON THEM AND SHOW WE’RE PROGRESSIVE THESE ARE ONLY MY THOUGHTS...I HOPE YOU GET THE MESSAGE...

be alarmed see my arm up my sleeve is a lil charm but i dont never use it if i did what if i abuse it all that is hallucinations i should lose it give it away give it away til i prove it was never really mine to be coveting, coveting, why i gotta rub it in read my mind read my soul see the joy i wish to release even when i have inner peace i dont always feel like it’s timely--its outta reach sup with that, that aint cool i would not deserve the thank you, thank you, thank you make me a hollow reed, out of bamboo ay, every other day we let it get away and it’s so obvious to say are we just unable to reset the stage of our ways our assumptions will break us down if we dont do them first

granted, life has all taught us different lessons and life has all bestowed on us different blessings and we have all went our distinct directions so depending on your status it could seem depressing so how do we know if we’re truly progressing or treadmilling, or just stretching getting warmed up, cuz truth be told We will be tested like how fire can test the gold and as far as i know we gon keep getting burnt until we earn the skill to advance our souls It's natural... Practically factual But we can hide from the truth if we're irrational And it so happens it's hard to do the research so it's in fashion to wear opinions like t-shirts Then having an open mind is scary like walking around naked in public, we'd rather change up the subject ahem.... Those we deem wise wouldn’t propagate lies nor would they try to advise beyond the promise those we deem wise would truly recognize the realistic limits to their own knowledge but we’re all at different stations with our trains of thought but we can transfer any time with a change of heart until we find a common purpose, we will deviate further from each other we’re already murdering each other, so sad I say no wonder it seems so bad and we gon keep getting burned til we learn from the past ...After they acquitted Darren Wilson I hear people say they lost faith in the system now please don’t take offense when I say this then your faith is sacred, you should never place that in the system keep it in safe and lock it with the key of trust that safe goes by the name “power of love” raise the standard of security to tower above the lower nature that’s persuading you to give it up it’s too valuable, cuz pure faith could make a weak man powerful ….for real… and true unity does not finger point, true unity means we’re all accountable so if we dont know, now we know America we think we’re smart, yet we act so childish tho and racism’s like the most great prison we will not escape this until we break the chains within I say no wonder it seems so bad and we gon keep getting burned til we learn from the past after all these tragedies now what? we can’t expect those in pain to keep their mouth shut i won’t defend looting, and i won’t defend riots just like i can’t defend the news when they’re super biased for those that spread love in the face of hate for those that teach peace when it isn’t safe and those that stay calm when the world shakes we need you, please do it, whatever it takes…

hey baby boy ... we are... Sitting in the triage at Sinai hospital Your mother and i awaiting for the time to go/ Be.cause y'all had a fender bender earlier today And they told us to stop in to make sure you're ok/ So they asked a lotta questions, inspected and checked up on you And They said your heart sounds fabulous, so we're proud of you/ I hope your heart is always fabulous Regardless of life's changes and chances and blessings and accidents/ We know we can't just preach it, and not be it We gotta model it Cuz you won't believe it until you see it/ We gon tell you we love you as a prefix, before we hug you, therefore you feel it, your spirit knows it was true/ You'll need that intuition for this world that you're coming to Some people will say anything, don't let them puzzle you/ Just try to find that piece of truth, in what they're saying, and fit it in this reality puzzle we're all playing/ .------------------------------------------------------ Because we all need that eye of discernment Otherwise this life is a whirlwind/ Don't be surprised if your pride tries to poison you try to avoid it when the voices are annoying you/ I don't mean to scare you though, this life is enjoyable We got a lot to look forward to Like creativity and art, humor and friendships Zuberi, Amelia. Daniela, Cedric and the search for knowledge will always be endless so we will never get bored, our little apprentice our little ilosopher, we can't wait to learn from you our eyes are open, our mind is open, our heart is open and hoping, for the best...blessings and tests either one we radiantly acquiesce I wanna show you bravery at it's zenith i'm talking too much but you get it, right? --------------------------------------------------- When you come out You'll notice the world's cold then... you'll discover the warm hold of your mother mother earth and when you come out you'll notice the world's noise then you'll recognize that voice of your father heavenly father ...i hope i am....i'm striving man... -------------------------------------------------- but mom and dad will have roles that's interchangeable i plan to change your diaper too, just so that you know i probably make a few mistakes--please forgive me i'm the youngest sibling in my family, so i never did this before showing that i care is something that i'm working on but i've had a lot of help on that, thanks to your mom she is both magical and highly practical so amazing and creative, yet rational it's our duty to you, to be united so when we disagree, we don't insult, we consult just to sort out the juice from the pulp the truth from the folktale, the view when there's no veils there's a lot to say, but we mainly want to promise you we'll always be together--we will do whatever's possible to elevate your unity, love and and tranquility cuz truthfully the family's your very first community but ----------------------------------------------------------- speaking of community, there's something else we gotta tell ya we still wanna continue our service, little fella but maybe it's like...you come in this world at midnight we run and drop our service like slipper's of cinderella then the prince of charming finds us to bring it back and the opportunity continues, huh...think of that now we know why it's important cuz working for the betterment of the world will become your fortune more likely than us, you'll see the fruits of our labors if we inspire the children today, imagine later they will grow up and want to give back so the service multiplies, but you'll have to nurture that so if you heard your dad is concerned with another's well being just know that it's connected to our hearts beating cuz our "inner life moulds the environment and is itself deeply affected by it" -- Shoghi Effendi we cannot (we cannot) segregate (segregate) the human heart from the environment they say having a child is like having your heart walking around outside your body...so that should be a good reminder of the need to work towards the betterment of the world, starting with our family, continuing into the community and the world "We cannot segregate the human heart from the environment outside us and say once one of these is reformed everything will be improved. Man is organic with the world. His inner life moulds the environment and is itself deeply affected by it. The one acts upon the other and every abiding change in the life of man is the result of mutual reaction."
