Black Man. Tossed & beaten, I mourn in your waking.

Black Man. To see in the eyes of your very being I have comprehention. brutalized into self contradiction, Baby Boyd into self hate.

Black Man . Juged upon, capitlized on to the point of self extinction. This basterd child generation.

Black Man. They gambled on your freedom. Held you captive to knowlaedge you were gifted. Uncle tom you into submisson, ripped away what you invented.

Black Man. At times like these I wish God had blurred all of our vision, all to be left with obsure thinking.

Black Man. You're more than just a plagiarized satsistic. More than just a baby daddy, more than another ni**a dying in these poverty stricken streets.

Black Man. Fallen victim to another man's hands that look's just like his own. Because his mind had been rape, distorted & misshaped. The struggle is real, no chance for survival. Feeling's get you killled.

Black Man. You're more than a urban filter for others to cast hate. You are loved, you are greate. You are worthy of praise to the ones that are still here to see another day.

Black Man. This is a Love letter to let you know that someone hears your plea. I Love you Black Man. Sincerly a Black Queen.

Thank you for allowing me to share my voice.
