BLACK HEAVEN

Dad is the darkness in my skin sin
Is this blackness a curse on me or a blessing
Dad will black men be in heaven, will our fore fathers who could call the rain be somewhere in the sky
Or will they die with the prophecy of metal snake and butterflies

We're black men corrupt, was this imported or is this a capitalistic disease
Is poverty the real nature of Africa or we forgot our God and His teachings
Were orphans in Africa poor and homeless or was this a monogamous disease
Were black children father and mother less or is this a modernization disease

Were black people foolish to organize their society in a way every elder was a minister
We're black people stupid to say that there is a God and he blesses with the morning sun
Were black men backward to preserve their race with herbs
Were black men without God or did God make a mistake me black

Was Jesus important because of the color of his skin or depth of his teaching
For sure God is not a racist or heaven would be scary
Does God even have a face
Does God have use for a skin

I would like to live in a race neutral heaven
Where love is pure and true
I am not waiting for heaven in the sky
I believe in believer's heaven
Right on the back of mother Earth

MEANING

Would it have a meaning if you were not remembered?

HEART OUT

You are the one I think of when I am blank When I am happy you are the one I call I think of you when I am sad I pour it all on you And I feel it is all right I call you when I reach a problem's dead end Together we find a way to move to the other side of the wall With you I feel like the lake Galilee When Jesus was calming the storm You are my rain maker You make me feel hope You are the cloud that causes my worst storms When I know that I am the reason you are shedding tears I feel so comfortable beside you I can sing off key But it is all right because I wont be judged I can talk and talk Be sure that I will be heard I can keep the quiet of a grave And not be scared that it will be heard wrong Yes I can be headstrong Then we will fight and make peace I can be fearful when you are scared And we will curdle together I can hope when you have lost hope And you can hope when I have lost mine For that is how we become better You are beautiful to my eyes and ...

OVERSTAYED VISIT

You don't need me So I thank you for the good you have done I say it in silence That way you will not sense the silent good bye It hurts me that our business in your face is done But I will remember we were brothers I will pray for you For my prayer is that you fly high and steady in the strong winds I will not forget that you helped me And the much I am or will be will acknowledge you But tonight I will pack what I can And leave your house brother Not groaning For all of us are guests in each others lives In my case I must have overstayed my visit I hope love never grows old I will find peace when it thrives again But now It is obviously used.
