So much anger - so much rage
i'm ready to kill
Now, i'm really scared
every time he's been free (anger)
i've been locked up
Where there is anger
there is no freedom
Where there is anger
there is rage - the under current
of fear
No-freedom
Where there is no-freedom
there is no-peace
Where there is no-peace
there is rage
Where there is rage
there is fear...
fear of no-freedom
fear of no-peace
i'm tired of being locked up
i'm tired of hurting
i'm tired of causing hurt
i'm tired of fear the wife
of anger, mother of rage
...no-freedom
Where there is Anger & Fear
there is no-peace
Where there is Lust & Greed
there is no-peace
Where there is Hunger & Deprivation
there is no-peace
Where there is Hatred & Apathy
there is no-peace
Where there is EGO & Closed-mindedness
there is no-peace
Where there is Peace
there is none of the Above
Where there is Peace
there is Love
Where there is Love
there is Lord
So much anger, rage, fear, lust, greed,
hunger, deprivation, hatred, closed-
mindedness, and EGO
So much non-peace
very little Love
very little...
So many tears
So many fears
So many rains
So many pains
So many storms
So many reins ...unbroken
as we keep our souls
trapped
So many fares ...unpaid
busses to freedom missed
as we dance to someone else's
TAP
So many panes ...window shattered
pieces of mind
So many tares ...plastic heavy
in weight
-and they told me
not to throw
stones
So many naked colors
-and you want me
to write a chorus line
Huh
Let us strip the rainbow
of it's glorified stardust
take away the isms of light
Behold - it's naked colors
beyond your wildest imagination
yet crucifying to it's very edge
there is your chorus line
the inevitable
Naked Colors
So much anger - is so much pain
so little peace
Where there is Peace
there is Love
Where there is Love
there is Lord
So much anger - so little peace
so little peace - so little love
so little love - so little lord
so little...
Forgive me, O' Lord
for my Naked Colors
Damn brotha, damn brotha, I say.... Damn brotha!!!
You have no idea how much I needed to read something of this manner at this time... I'm in a personal seclusion where my feelings, life, and writing have all come to a head, ultimately halting my poetic process. You have spoken on my internal feelings...
"So much anger, rage, fear, lust, greed,
hunger, deprivation, hatred, closed-
mindedness, and EGO
So much non-peace"
It now takes days to become satisfied with a piece due to how angry and fatigued I am... Yet the happy and vibrant writer inside is trying to get out... I thank you for this piece - it has truly opened my eyes and unlocked my pen!
Peace and Blessings
