An Endangered Species
I would love to save you all.
I would really love to have every resource needed to save you.
Everyone of you.
I would really love to have every resource needed to save you.
Everyone of you.
The pressure placed upon your shoulders.
All the unexpected pain.
The suppressed emotions.
Never feeling the love of a father.
Embracing the double-sided sword like love of a broken-hearted mother.
Escaping the madness of home only to find comfort in the cold cracked concrete.
Finding refuge under a street light on the corner.
Seeking security in the form of a dollar, a pound, and a key.
Believing everything in front of you, because you have never seen past it.
Identifying the term "Bitch" only with a woman.
Ignorant to the fact it is defined as a female dog.
Referring to the female as a hoe, not knowing it's a garden tool.
Lost, never knowing the difference between a "man" and or a "nigga".
I am scared for you.
I understand more than you will ever know.
Who is responsible? Why are you held accountable?
You had no choice in your birth.
No choice in your circumstance.
All you know is what you have lived and what you have seen.
Life has never been a dream in your world, all you know is real.
I fear for you, my heart cries for you.
However, I believe in you.
No man's eyes have seen the promise God has for you.
Faith is the substance of things not seen.
Find power in knowledge.
Have the confidence to try.
You will only be as great as you say you are.
You only lose when you give up.
Use your tongue as your sword, and keep a book as your ammo.
Because they say the easiest way to hide something from you is to put it in a book.
Your power is limitless, but you have to be willing to fall first.
Because the strength that you use to rise again will forever keep you.
Persist without hesitation and exude confidence.
You are all that you say you are.
And who are they to say your not?
I Love You and see more in you than you see in yourself.
Rise. For your fight is neither lonely nor in vain.
My ability to save you, will only be as strong as your desire to save yourself
I Love You to Life My Brother
