Who Am I (Re-over-stood)
I love the opportunity
To feed your curiosity
More so than your animosity
Surrounding your fixation of who you assume me to be
So please allow me to first introduce who I am
Sacrifice what you choose
Though I recognize this is my chance
To not allow haters to misuse or abuse
The horizon I intend to expand
Wait don’t try to shake my hand
Haters attempt to annihilate my appearance
Due to the strenuous bind
Saying whatever but their ignorance
And negativity empowers their mind
Because they refuse to just acknowledge who I am
You called me what you think
And take me for a joke
When I refused your alcoholic drink
Or decline your cheap ass smoke
No need to ensue when you have not a clue as to who I am
On Life’s scale I am high rank
With a winning personality
I know, it don’t stank
I love my self’s integrity
Because I love who I am
So excuse me all small in mind
Here’s your greatest of challenges
Get a job. Be true or get behind,
Feed your soul with instructions. Maintaining life’s balances
Will enable you to blossom as to who you am
And my favorite word is 'FABULOUS'
Who Cares...
Whether I am Haitian, Swedish, Chinese
Arabic, Russian, Polish, or Guyanese
American, Jamaican, Honduran, or French
...
If night was day and the night turned gray, would you still find a way to smile for me?
Or maybe the sun fell down on us during a winter storm and being too warm stopped you from calling.
Did His love for me intimidate you to the point you can’t see us together one day?
Sometimes love can be blind but you ain’t hearing what I’m saying to you. At times, I can be firm but that’s no reason to confirm that…I don’t love you.
...
SLEEP, WAKE-UP, SHOWER, and SHAVE.
COMB my hair, PRAY my sins away.
COOK, CLEAN, CLEAR my mind, then LEAVE.
INHALE the day, EXHALE, THINK, then BREATHE.
...
II Conceded
May the Lord be my Protector and guide me?
Yeeeesss... for He loves me
