Peaceful Protest

Residual Rain

They say it’s for real.

“ it’s for real it’s for real !”

Hit your line no answer, “is that how you feel?”

But like a lie they carry concealed.

We social distancing, giving looks that can kill.

Pumping breaks; everyone ain’t so trill.

Everyone forgot how to pull up & build.

So where my real niggaz at keeping it real?

Real world problems turmoil at a glance.

Economies crashing devising new plans.

Nobody’s perfect got blood on these hands.

Stand up people this challenge a stance.

Mass producing weapons on all our tax dollars.

Neglecting the healthcare of all our blue-collar’s.

Micro chips with nano technology.

Secret society they owe us apologies.

Brainwashing people they do it so honestly.

All in the name of saving economy.

 The elite only want the haves and have nots.

Economy thrives on the middle class; but I think they forgot.

Chem trails with mediocre healthcare.

Worker bees with absent stares.

Humanity is dying; & it just isn’t fair !

I am made to serve; I’m just a rib from a man .

So I’m Serving up truth the best way that I can.

Building bridges my heads on a swivel.

Making moves with my canine can’t carry my pistol.

Population control, 5G radiation you think I’m bluffing!!!

Manufactured germ warfare that everyone saw coming.

Upon its arrival big businesses started running.

Roses from concrete; survival mentality .

By cops and our own; oppressions equality?!

Immigrant children taken from families.....

Cold blooded murder police brutality .....

California wages every man for himself.

Losing community everyone’s chasing this wealth.

Media propaganda has us under this spell.

Relief funds; but government officials from Hell!!!

Elite with hush money; they cutting us checks!

Death at the door so tell me who’s next?

Surplus of resources kind of has me perplexed .



Poverty is a state of mind.

Satisfied with minimal and desensitized.

It is an enough to keep me quiet.

So let’s begin the protest and peaceful riot.



Watchers watching the watchers.

The elite are synonymous to depopulating rock stars.

A beautiful garden the mind can be.

Or a desolate desert for the ungodly.

Fluoride in water; calcifying our brains.

Coating our neurons we don’t contemplate the same.

Roses shed petals but thorns remain.

Orchids cry tears as they drown in pain.

Putting patents on seeds so no one can grow.

Between Hillary and trump we’re allergic to both.

No room for denial, this is not an after thought.

Genetically modified food, they’re feeding us slops.

Deporting immigrants and killing their crops.

Thee open disrespect bugs me a lot.

We all pay taxes but not the 1%!!

Tons of loopholes; they ain’t paying no debts !

Paying us peanuts as they leave us for dead.

Most fall in line as they duck their heads.

Thee woke play opossum just to save their lives.

There’s legal murder in the street and it isn’t a crime.

Elevation is key, so the truth I can’t hide.

I’d Gladly give you the shirt off of my back; big facts!!!

They ring us out to dry then still collect tax.

I can barely breathe with thee spinning thoughts.

The trees are patient but people are not.

Surprised I was, the pen and the sword are the same.

Freedom of speech, Share the truth, repost don’t hate.

Raising awareness let us use our words.

The flowers grow with the rain not thunder; haven’t you heard?
