SAVIOR

SAVIOR

Ain't I a man?

So many women- who can choose?

Never knew what you had-

Until she left- and you lose her

Took me a long time to learn

Hard-headed made a soft behind-

And she was wicked in bed

Some use sex like a drug-

To forget our pain-

And still- we remain hot-blooded

Turn we loose-

They don't want us to be-

What we need to be

My mother was a Black goddess

White men and white women-

Wanna f--k us-

And call it freedom

We're more than dust-

And more than numbers

Hard for them to count us-

Every 1 of us die-

2 more come back

Make some noise-

Let 'em know we still here

Might save the world-

Like the women love Jesus

Savior-

When a man loves a woman

I believe in you and I

And love never dies

Here's the plan-

Brother- love your sister

Her mind and soul-

Will be the crown and throne

Our women sing-

"The Praisesong Of The Widow"

Black gods were dead-

See I become reborn

I was a prodigal son-

Been to hell and back

For the love o' my people-

I'm Black and I'm proud

Might look like us-

But can't serve 2 masters

Children of Isis-

Must test your heart

I'll be your Sun-

Woman- be my Earth

Feel me deep inside you-

Rhythm of the Soul People

They wanted to change us-

Re-arrange our structure

A swarm of devils-

Tried to kill our Father

Can anything good come out of the ghetto?

Or out of Nazareth? Or out of Ethiopia?

Savior-

When a man loves a woman

I believe in you and I

And love never dies

Thank you Shah,

     Sometimes, I don't know if the piece did what it's supposed to do until I get a response. If we're trying to change the world, we might throw up some dirt- but I'm not always nice- but my intentions are pure. My next piece is for the women. Talk to me.

                                                                                                     Peace and Love,
