IDENTITY LOST #1

IDENTITY LOST #1

A Poem by Eternal Thought

modern day Maafa

we must stop the

prostitution of our people

pimped-punked- & resold

people control your thoughts & your destiny

destiny

reclaiming your African spirituality

listen close folk follow me

Maafa Kiswahili

great disaster or terrible occurrence

after the experience we needed cultural reassurance

but none was given

now AmeriKKKa's dealin'

with the product created by one's environment

shackled-whipped- & chained

n***a what's ya name-what's ya name

is it toby massa

platinum chains and diamond rangs i floss

whips o dubs just the way you like it boss

the new African in Amerikkkan

Idenity lost
