Show Up!

Young Kings and Queens rise up, show your sons and daughters what’s up!

You can do more than level up, that olympian gold medal, winner circle stuff.

You birthing this world, there’s nothing like you!

They can’t imitate you,
although they try to.

While they low-key hate you, then try to dominate you.

They should stay celebrating you,
yes, for all that you do and have done.

Really, it’s about who you are and the reparations you represent.

It’s that cycle of life; yeah, your heaven sent!

They label your Black girl magic, black magic, because it’s so strong.

They say the Black man’s essence must be a spell because next to your power, their energy’s overwhelmed.

The cycle of life was birthed around and out of your woman’s womb.

America’s founding colonizers used it as a breeding ground and made your black men participate as they profited, while the whole family toiled stolen ground.

That emasculation and subjugation is a mental prison now. Like the steel prison, it has kept generations bound.

Off our backs, we tis of thee, our country’s liberty, yet no reparational rent will be paid, the interest system they created is just too high!

For you to get what is rightfully yours, our founding colonizers, descendants would have to stop funding international wars.

As a distraction, ALL of Americas working class and those seeking the American dream are politically polarized into division and civil unrest…

Soon, they will implement martial law where we will all face arrest for peaceful protest about the truth.

Speaking our truth will be a crime under a governments military rule… They will profit off of that too.

Back to you, Black Kings and Queens, you were meant to be here. We are our ancestors’ wildest dreams


Mother Earth has a partner, and WE are it!

RISE UP NOW, SHOW UP NOW, it’s time to represent!

Power to the People✊🏾
