Anxiety Depression PTSD
Unfortunately that’s me!
I was told as African American people we don't go through things-(I stated)
Tell that to the old black Shell Shock HOMELESS
Mentally Ill Veteran
After I just sat with him and did his intake packet!
The shelter system is a revolving Door
It sucks cause that what the system was made for
3000 dollars a day for family in DHS shelter System
Then you wonder why majority of the families get lost in the system
Do they really wanna house us?
How can that be! When the low income buildings annual income requirement is 80,000 yearly
They don’t really wanna see US Win
Stop listening to media and propaganda
It’s all pretend!!! Unfortunately Mood Swings, Post-Partum depression, Separation Anxiety that's me!!!
They say as African American people we don’t go through things these things!!!
Tell that to the little girl who was being molested by a family member and afraid to tell a SOUL
Cause somehow they might end up the not BEING THE VICTIM!!!! Now they lost and no one won't
Hear em!!
So now they contemplating Quitting the Race
Instead of helping with the problems they face!! They talk about them as if they are a disgraced!
As parents we think we make no mistakes! So explain to me why your child hates the sight of
You is it because you the made the wrong decisions and oblivious to their feelings!!!!
Don't mind me
I'm just speaking from People’s Experience!!!
Everyone parents different
What works for your child?
Might not be in the best interest
All I ask is that we take time to listen
Cause tables do turn and soon
It will be your turn
Let’s not take them for Granted
AFTER A WHILE IT WILL BE CHILD TAKING CARE OF PARENT!
It’s a cruel world we live in
We must protect them
I'm living witness Racism still exists
You say you don’t see color
Tell that to another muthafucka
Tell that to Korryn Gaines Children
Who lost their Mother!!!!!
They say we as African American people dot go through mental illness
So how you explain the black human being born a man but dressed as a woman?
Now don’t think I have something against them!
I’m just speaking from peoples’ experience!
Let’s just call it like we see it
Where is the logic in this?
The LGBTQ have more rights than human rights
I know some people are saying what she means by Human Rights?
A person who identifies with neither gender
What category does they fit into?
It isn’t the Human RACE!
But when it comes to money US will find a place
For these individuals just for residual income
And is it fair for person to have to go to prison
For protecting their feelings
Cause they was deceived by someone
Who said they was something they really wasn’t
I don’t know maybe it’s just me
But where is the FAIR IN THIS!
I old timer told me a while ago if you standing in line for fair
You will be waiting forever!
They Say the majority of our people are in Prison Unluckily for me I had the opposite experience.
I was the only black face in that dayroom. You know how that feel to wake up and it's just you!!!
Eight months Pregnant in front of White man he holds my fate in his hands!!
Slavery just at another Degree!!!
Ok I can take responsibility for my actions
By why Donna with the long rap sheet keep getting a slap on the Wrist
FOR THE SAME SHIT?
She's White so she gets the benefit of the doubt!
Don’t waste your time trying to, figure it out
You know what they say
When it white It’s Right!!!!!
DEA Agent Mad at Me
Cause his Daughter a junkie!!!
You want to crucify me
So it's personal I see!!
Time is passing
My daughter grows bigger every day
My unborn soon come
I sleep okay at night cause
I know they can’t hold me forever
Until then I think of the day
We will be reunited again
So for now this pen to paper
You is all I can think of
Tears fall from my eyes
Every time I think about giving birth
And having to say Goodbye!!!!
One the hardest things I have to do
But I Promise when Mommy get home I got YOU!!!!
I hope one day you forgive me
And not hold it against me
But if you do I have to accept obligation
And explain mommy’s little "Vacation"
Now I'm in Labor and the only people in my room is the doctors and a Prison Guard
Slavery all over again at another Degree!
Meek Mill said it best its level to this shit
YOUR right it levels something no black man will never experience
Just because the color of his skin
Paranoia, abandonment, Desolated, heartbroken,
Unlovely that’s me!
