What's Going On?

"a poem I wrote a long time ago"

Mass confusion can lead to delusion,

But situation can become abrasive if you act too invasive,

For me life would be perfect if I was Hughe Hef,

But instead the Reeper is knocking at my door like "Who's next and who's left?",

Death all around me, there is no escaping it,

Times like these, it's rare that you see a black man making it,

I wake up every morning to CNN and ask why ?,

How many more of the soldiers in Iraq have to die ?,

They try to divert our attention to something irrelevent,

Because they don't want the public to look down on the President,

You say you like black people, Well Bush, explain this,

Why the California victims get support, but the Katrina victims get dismissed?,

People need to realize life isn't what it's cracked up to be,

People trying to constrain me, but whether they do, that's up to me,

I'm a strong black man that's seeing the world in a different way as I get older,

And I'd die before I let a old white man fuck me over,
