it pays to be saved

It Pays To Be Saved

of all the things that he went through, we should understand why there was a price for his sacarfice.
if we don't know  it by now, we will never ever know, and run the chance of not awaking to a new life such as this one

hold on

hold on to hope today

like you never have before

hold on to hope, and perhaps pray a little more

kiss a love one show how much you care

let them know that it would matter if they weren't there

greet the day with a smile as if it were your last

look towards your future, remembering the choices of your past

things are getting crazy, just like he said it would,

but just hold on to hope, hold on to something good

say some words of praise, do a selfless deed

show a sign of humanity, to someone who's in need

colors

they told them all the good never mentioning the bad
that showed the how they could live wearing their colord rags,
now it is so sad, that their lives had to end in such a tragic way,

nothing we could do 
nothing we could say

they had all the answers, now their are gone today
they chose this life for many reasons, making all the wrong moves
losing their lives, what did they have to prove
killing for a color hating one another

they told them all the good never mentioning the bad
that showed the how they could live wearing their colord rags,

just what does it mean, this color, they said 
that  if a man wears the wrong color shirt on the wrong side of town, 
that he wouldnn't make it home he would be shot down

no man should have to die because of the color he wears
the places he choses to go he should be safe there

they're killing or future
digracing our past
how long will this maddness go on
how long can our young black men last

they told them all the good never mentioning the bad
now their gone today
what men we could have had

pieces of a dream

this morning i woke up with only pieces of  a dream,

with this feeling of ecstasy that, what could this mean.

the very thought of that joy, that evades me doing day light,

slipped it way into my soul for only one night.

i still can feel the love in his tone, why did it only last until the dawn.

could it have been and angel for heaven above,

i'm not really certain that my mind conceived was Love,

not one encouter with love  had ever fulfilled my Soul  that way.

no it was always forbidden thoughts from lust  has ever Slumbered upon my Bed

this morning i woke up with only pieces of a dream
