  • Glory be to Allah

    close my eyes hoping to see the sunlight
    prayed to Allah hoping to outlast this bitter cold night
    give me the foresight to cherish forgotten
    at there death mark pass my respect to those I lost,
    and in their spirit I’m empower by the volumes of yesterday
    under the ink standing over the mirror views
    hoping to catch a glimpse of ray
    only to find myself in may
    Standing before him I realize that I have strayed
    Oh Allah, give me the strength to mend my ways
    over the sins of my days
    I hold the book of life , and glory be to you
    the oneness of you do I testify
    For all that you’ve given me,
    How can I deny
    My purpose in life should be only to cry

  • Gaasira

    SiX bullet to kill
    blood spills
    That’s a tale of Ismail
    And squalls of evil
    I stood there and watch him unleash his last breath
    The sound of his mother grieve deteriorate me to the point
    I almost fail to my knees
    I reach out to comfort her
    His memories drips from within
    Immediately I rouse out of my thoughts and glance back at him to get a final look
    beneath the white Shiites A linger wounds
    scrubs wonder the streets
    his child stood next to me,
    with a dry lips and I kind of wonder
    what was going through his mind

    without saying a word
    I said to myself
    feel the sand pitch
    Where our pearls smear
    And young women fear to give birth
    Do to yesterday tragedies
    And today’s father lynch
    Under the ink Is been said that good things come to those who wait
    Yet we have been waiting for peace and societal movement
    close to 20 years and only wars been hold
    Pullet patrol and oppression
    Said to be our glories role
    Lord knows best, But our prize is yet to be told

  • The Otherside of the Phone ParT I&II

    ________________PART I ____________________________

    I was laying there relaxing
    Nothing in particular on mind when
    My cell phone stars to ring across the table
    Just sit there and stare it —for a second
    Finally got my ass up and answer it
    It’s her;
    I smile and scorn as I pick up
    under the tune of her voice; words of music fall
    she says I was on her mind in more ways than one,
    thn I smile, feeling blissful with golden eye,
    knowing the fact that I was sitting here a minute ago and
    there was nothing not even the faint echo of a song in the air
    I respond—- “I’m feeling a little anxious tonight.”
    Her: “but I’m too far to go give you a fair taste?”
    Me: I love when you peeping’ from afar,
    but my love is more than the waves of your hips
    and the vibe between your waist
    Her: What you anxious about than?
    Me: I think its bout time that I make you mine
    Her: what you saying?

    Me: there is this flame that keeps me burning
    In the midst of my sleep
    In the silence of my night
    In the coldness of my early morning
    Forever is what I want to give to you

    Her: I have all this love waiting just for you
    I just need to know if you have
    the accurate price to make me right?

    Me: this glory that keeps me warm
    the lights inside the candles in my mind,
    this fair luminous mist with nestled desire
    my goal is loving you completely
    Until; death du us apart.

    Her: what about the currency to make it tight
    I’ll cost you more thn four years of college price
    anything with quality has heavy volume attach .

    Me: feel me in — any way to compromise the depth
     ___________________________ PART II ___________________________

    Her: sweetie I want my wedding to be seen —
    Nation Wide, World Wide
    “you got to compete if you want to claim me”

    Me: Girl you getting beside yourself
    Her: In which way?

    Me: I’m not a Bill Gate
    Her: It doesn’t take Bill Gate
    to been seen at the prom-light

    Me: The stars in your hypnotic eyes
    tell me that you’ve been dreaming of me
    the scars on your kind heart
    tell me that you’re after my pocket coinage
    Never deem we would be
    it made me foresee,
    a woman who takes me for me
    you said our love was strong brick
    But you want to milk my bank account
    Yet telling me your love is moral deep

    Her; You were always within sight…
    I was blinded and mind grasping
    the wallet cash
    despite your silent cries for my care attach
    celebrity style is my wicked habit Me:

    You had me feelin we in the same line
    but I see you in a different light
    demanding like you own my account
    calculating my investment for a brick house
    trying to take control of my deliberation
    calling snaps
    Like your own pat
    don’t mean to sound harsh but I demand respect sister
    And there’re those days we don’t see things eye to eye just like every other two
    but I guess it’s too late to compromise

    Her: I dismissed your submission what is there I wouldn’t give?

    Me: I notice the sign of your forehead
    All I see are hollow eyes.
    There is a mist in expression,
    A mix of deception
    gold-digger precision
    engaging to produce a million figure
    but I worth six-dollar brunette medal
    Our rap session is over-
    Goodbye
    Pillion in the Greyhound
    turmoil at the red-light—-
    your money is down at the hoe prim-night

    Well there ya’ll have it, phony cat, and production of fast-cash—

  • The other side of the Game

    Fathers never ending shift

    The Brood scribbles for food

    Linger mother howls under her silent mood

    Brothers scratch the wood, to pay for school

    While cats at the cornerstone shine the hood,

    With saggy pants and blazing rap tune

    At the Café man of all ages standing around

    Some playing pool over the rusty window

    Others gather roughly 5’s jabbering nonsense

    Up town

    I see

    Roca-fella wannabe’s

    With expensive sneakers

    And Brand textile in keeping

    With the Hip style

    While their mothers proudly swipe the

    Welfare card,

    they the burn the Strawberry mild

    To make them feel like Golden male’s

    Over screen set, they jamming to Pac

    “strickly For my Nigga’s”

    At the motherland

    their peers fighting unknown war

    standing the hot sand sobering over their lost link

    no water, no shoes, only hot pullet and rug to pray

    I ask myself if they would have change anything if they have seen the other side of the game?

    In Amaze I stood there

    Texting the scene

    A young cat step to me

    Asking me what

    I was holding notes for

    And I said through me

    “The Black experience is glorious told”

    The cat looked down on me

    In low tone throwing ill-bred remark

    While huffing over the nigga thing

    He caught me surprisingly saying

    “There is nothing glorious about our history; black people have been the mouse of white men ever since the beginning of the century”

    From his voice you could tell he hasn’t finished high school

    Thus I didn’t made a room for debate,

    I decided long ago that I was on a personal crusade to learn all that I could about people of color and Black folks in particular. And on that crusade, I try to educate other folks about Black people and the many accomplishments they have made to this world. The problem with the Somali’s or the black community for that matter is that we have been brainwashed by the media, and many times the black history is printed in dark imagery thus I’ve met so many young brothers suffering from self hate, and they end up with the possibility that they’re inferior regardless of what the black people achieve.
