I feel myself
growing tired of
telling you what I feel like
things I've seen and
how I came out on the other side
somethin like aight
thinkin like I wanna say
somethin more
somethin about politics
and what I do my show for
why I preach participation
in the process
and faith in something greater
cause we all digress
and gonna find a time
when it's best to press reset
so I say let mistakes be mistakes
be thankful His mercy
never forsakes
and give as much to the universe
as it finds space to take...

I feel me a little
better than when I first
started pressing publish
on various social sites
and had long since faded to black
at all the local open-mics
this me knows I can
pen with a purpose
not just on purpose
cause I like to pen
I'm looking at it like
I never saw it this time
that I'm lookin at it again
this is someplace more
than just a sanctuary to repent
for my sins...

I could choose to
resonate because my journeys
been great
pontificate on hope
and the untimely perfection
of fate
but that's too easy to do
I'd rather if I got the
ear and mind of you
tell you bout what a vote can do
how your country needs you
especially them people
that look like you
and if it seemed confusing before
than allow me to show you the way...

I could keep talking bout my life
or I could show you why he made me his wife
and expand my lexicon opposite of the easy way
and tell you I got something more to say.
