It ain’t everything
It can’t be

You want it so bad but is it in Gods will
What would you do for it
Would you share it if you had it
What if it wasn’t everything you thought it would be
What if... – by Hasan Johnson | 1 View added 8 months ago

Learn to forgive and forget

You don’t want to block your blessings
Yes they hurt you
Talked about you bad
Yes their actions made you sad
But forgive them and move forward

I have my health
I can see
I can hear
I can feel
And breathe on my own
I can wash

I can think
Walk talk drink even when I’m alone
With no assistance
I’m richer than the richest
And I’m thankful... – by Hasan Johnson | 0 Views added 8 months ago

He cheats he lies

I hate the day I was born
I hate my name

Can’t even do that

I want a refund from the field where I was sowed
This ain’t living

Just woke up
That’s was all it took
For the officer to kill you without taking a second look
I got one

He killed a black man that looks like me
He hunts us down knowing he’ll be rewarded

Poor black man
It’s a shame that you were born
Ignorance is bliss
While wisdom brings you harm
No happiness for you
It’s not your birth right
Anger is your friend that helps you sleep at night
God has forsaken you
