A message inspired by Dochiidelic

 Alternate the you & I verse

   where the universe doesn’t stall out

destiny’s children from reaching adolescence 

        My idled essence of “I define mine”

Has been picked apart and sampled unclear

I found you down a road less travelled 

appalled

   at the tourist attraction it had become 

You travelled west guided by northern starlight 

   to remind me of slave trained freedom runners

and the liberation of groovy funkdafied self discovery 

under African Sun’s,

     Philippine Island Stars,

and (repar)nation under god that still has yet to repair Nutten’ for the coffeecolored  coated backs that built it from the cotton fields, to the railroads, to the farms labored

I travel back to present day where reincarnated 

   descendants of Rosa Parks remind me to find:         

                                balance, 

Martin & Malcom with Lapu Lapu resistance

     and to not sacrifice the artist for the sake of exploitainment

  

P.s. 

let them expose themselves at your arraignment 

W     Elevate yourself at your actualization, forego the need for external validation to get the message of Illmatic across disproving the need for Def fills towards American Gangster expression
