WE TALK ABOUT CHANGE BUT....

WE STILL ARE OUT THERE ,SITTIN ON STREET CORNERS,IN FRONT OF LIQUOR STORES,LAMENTING LIFE AND THE CARDS WE HAVE BEEN DEALT.WE CONSTANTLY PLACE THE BLAME ON EVERYTHING BUT OUR SELVES.

SEE, I HAVE MAJOR ISSUES WHEN IT COMES TO PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT CHANGE. I KNOW THAT'S A BIG BUZZWORD RIGHT NOW WITH ALL THREE REMAINING PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES .AND EACH IS STAKING THEIR CLAIM AS TO HOW THEY'RE GOING TO BRING ABOUT CHANGE

BUT THINK ABOUT IT. WE ALL COMPLAIN ABOUT BABIES HAVING BABIES YET FAIL TO TEACH ABOUT THE CONSEQUENCES AND RESPONSIBILITIES.WE ALL HAVE SAY ILLEGAL DRUGS ARE BAD BUT TAKE ANY AND EVERY OVER THE COUNTER DRUG TO CURE US WHEN WE ARE SICK.

IT'S THE SAME WAY WITH ALL ASPECTS OF LIFE.THIS COUNTRY, IT IS MY HOPE, WILL ELECT EITHER BARACK OBAMA OR HILLARY CLINTON TO THE HIGHEST OFFICE IN THE LAND IN NOVEMBER.IT IS ALSO MY HOPE THAT WHOMEVER IT IS,THEIR MESSAGE OF CHANGE IS REAL AND BEARS FRUIT.

HOWEVER,ARE WE AS A SOCIETY GOING TO BE ACTIVE IN HELPING MAKE CHANGE PROSPER.OR ARE WE GONNA SIT THERE AND POINT THE FINGER AT OBAMA AND OR CLINTON AND EXPRESS REGRET VOTING THEM INTO OFFICE.YOU THINK I AM KIDDING.BUT I AM DEAD SERIOUS.I CAN HEAR THE VOICES NOW"BARACK'S AN UNCLE TOM" OR HE FORGOT ABOUT THE STRUGGLE".OR IN HILLARY'S CASE , YOU'LL HEAR"THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU PUT A WOMAN IN CHARGE".IT'S ALMOST LIKE WE LOVE HEARING OURSELVES TALK EVEN THOUGH DEEP DOWN , WE KNOW WE AIN'T GONNA DO S**T ABOUT IT

LOOK, I'M NOT PASSING JUDGEMENT. I JUST SEE YOUNG GIRLS  HAVING BABIES WITH NO FUTURE,SINGLE MOTHERS AND FATHERS BARELY MAKING ENDS MEET. AND I KNOW IT'S NOT NEW IN THIS DAY IN AGE.BUT WHEN WE TALK ABOUT CHANGE,LET'S NOT BULLSHIT OURSELVES.

LET'S GET OUT THERE AND CHANGE THINGS LIKE LAWS AND CONSEQUENCES FOR LAWS BEING BROKENLET'S STOP SIX YEAR OLD KIDS FROM GETTING SHOT IN THE HEAD IN A HAIL OF GUNFIRE.LET'S WORK ON BLACK AND BROWN RELATIONS.WE ALL ARE STRUGGLING.WE ALL WANT AND NEED A BETTER LIFE.LET'S HELP THE NEXT MAN AND WOMAN OUT.NOT A HANDOUT, JUST STABILITY AND DIRECTION.BECAUSE TRUTHFULLY,THAT'S ALL SOME PEOPLE NEED.

AND THAT'S REAL CHANGE.NOT BECAUSE IT'S TALKED ABOUT.IT'S BECAUSE YOU CAN SEE IT.WE ARE A VISUAL SOCIETY.IF WE CAN'T SEE IT, WE DON'T BELIEVE IT.BUT WE CAN DO IT.AND IT DOESN'T START IN NOVEMBER. IT STARTS NOW.AS THE OLD SAYING GOES,DON'T TALK ABOUT IT, BE ABOUT IT.LATE.
