Slow Down Black Man - A Message
|
Posted By: Christopher Donshale Sims on November 27, 2008 Slow down Black Man Gather your thoughts first, then attack with a Plan. We’re steady talkin’ about “The Man.” When it is our Plight, we must Understand. Sayin’ “****!” in a world of Beauty To be Wise, Guides and Open Eyes is our duty. Truthfully, our women and children need us We are the walking prophets, similar to Jesus. Slow down Black Man Let peace guide you Let life remind you Of Martin, Malcolm and Marcus We are at our best, when we work hardest. Take a deep breath, chill, be Do not yourself become your own enemy Do not what is trendy Do what you know is best With a strong woman, you will be blessed. Slow down Black Man Remember who you are Remember to Freedom, we followed the North Star Remember that you built pyramids Slow down Black Man, provide all you can give. Walk strong! Talk like you belong! Open your mouths, sing your Triumph Song! Be your best, even when you look in the mirror to get dressed Hug your children, tell ‘em that you love ‘em Before you tuck them in, hold ‘em, hug ‘em. Pick flowers for your woman Send them to her workplace Smile as you envision the look on her face. Slow down Black Man The world needs you so much In your heart, make sure there’s love, trust Speak to the Youth fighting on the corner This world is cold, with your help it’ll get warmer Be a performer at work and at home Show the world over what exists in your dome. Slow down Black Man The world needs your strength Show them why you are The seeds of the Talented Tenth. Slow down Black Man. Slow down Black Man. Slow down Black Man. © Christopher Donshale Sims 11/27/2008 If you enjoyed this article, Join BlackInAmerica.com today for similar content and opportunities via email! |
