I'll get things kicked off.
I can't be judge by man or even judged by God
The only one who can judge me is the creator of God
So u can throw me in jail take away my liberty
But freedoms in the mind I hope U hearing this with clarity

I'mjust a black man not a case for charity
As I'm released from the ultimate ways of controlling
How thought provoking do I own what i'm holding

How thought provoking do I own what I'm holding
And you look at me as if I am joking
But why is this so hard for you to see
When all I need is for you to say you agree with me
I'm back and ready to attack.

But of all thecults/religions on Earthis there 1 true belief
Still feeling used,caged and restricted
Opposite tide to the world - truly conflicted

I'll have fun on my own.
Opposite tide to the world - truly conflicted
But who Am I fooling
Trying not to portray what others have depicted
When its with myself that I find my self duelling

When its with myself that I find my self duelling
But still ambitious and active so my body i'm fuelling
To go far, as far as my imagination can grasp
I aimed for the sky and ended up reaching the stars

I aimed for the sky and ended up reaching the stars
Tohopefully realise that dream that seem so far
And not forget, that my life is ajar
But on I will go, until you see, that I have reached that place where I longed to be.
I'm back and ready to attack.

But on I will go, until u see, that I have reached the place where I longed to be
And that is a place surroundedby myextended family
Asking "why?" to the wrongs in reality it seems...
I should be asking "why not?" to the utopia I see in my dreams

i should be asking "why not?" to the utopia i see in my dreams,
I mean what i say, but often not say what i mean,
we always argue and strife for equality,
instead on concentrating on being what we aim to be,

But life is never really fair
So why should I not bother to care
When all I'm asking for, is a listening ear.
I'm back and ready to attack.

When all I'm asking for,is a listening ear
to express to you my sorrows,and fear.
Life seems hopeless,there is somuch pain
is it just me,or is the whole world insane?

Walking next to those that seem so unconscious
But surely they can see the pain that still remains
And hope that one day we putright what wronged us

And hope that one day we put right what wronged us
And loosen ourselves from the invisible binds;
We'll progress with ease, and not struggle to find
What we think we have lost, which lays hidden in our minds
Coco makes the heart grow fonder...
or maybe just grow to want to kill yourself.
