Slave to The New Religion

Slave to The New Religion

A Poem by Kwaku Quansah
"

the new movement in the 21st century which is poetry,a blend of the old and new generation of good poets,rappers,spoken word acts.

"
I am a slave to the new religion
One that gave me hope for freedom, a dream and a clear vision
A period I rejoice for being kept in captive to start a new beginning
The rebirth of a new believe from our forefathers to my generation 
Oh yes, I am slave to the new religion 
I am chained to my thoughts 
And wished I became a fugitive to my own words 
I look up to and respect all my masters
But I only serve one master who is up above the sky 
The giver of wisdom and knowledge to say profound words none can defy
And so I give thanks to Jah 
Then down to Nikki Giovarni 
Prof Awoonor
Wale
Rhyme sonny
Mutombo da poet 
Nana Asaase
Junno Mama-Cita
Kwaku Rap
Mj 
O'Zionn 
And my homie Raj
The rest of the poets are just the replica of Dope 
It is all we need because we need a better hope 
For we are the sons and daughters of the builders of words that form a new religion 
One that we believe in 
Rappers, Spoken Word Artists, Writers and art lovers, 
Micasa es Sucasa 
Nti Y3n bom mu na y3n som na y3n kasa 
For the rebirth of Poetry awaits Us
Because real recognizes real 
And together a solid movement we will build 
Oh yes, I am slave to the new religion 
Another believer of words that are found in the Scriptures of the Bible as proverbs
Words that invaded my town and impregnated innocent minds with thoughts 
Words that Tied me in shackles till I mastered the Art
And I swear 
Words that  no other can ever take apart
Oh yes, I am slave to the New religion
One that makes me want to express myself in any possible kinda way
For I have forged my words as a weapon 
To shield thou from thy enemy 
So when my masters speak, I speak 
And when the sky is the limit, I will stand at its peak
At last  I shall fear no Evil  and will die with words in thy mouth
Now tell me what is the new religion? 
Poets Outreaching Eternity To  
Raise Youthamism
