I Return

I return

Again after a long weekend with friends, family, and kin

I realized so many things

In just a little bit of time

Most importantly

What I choose for my life is mine

I am the only one who needs to care when my dreams arrive

And it will be my measure of what it means to thrive

Not living this life just to survive

Because I’m the king of the jungle

The ultimate predator

Devourer

And destroyer

Not super concerned with who is my employer

But rather where I can get a good lawyer

Because like all kings

There came challengers

Niggaz that be trifflin'

And cops that be assault riffling

But since they can’t see the light in me

I must strike

Or start a fight

Then spend a night in the slammer

In the morning

Got charges to answer

But I beat the case

Like those whack challengers

Then pray to God for forgiveness

Lord show me your grace

Give me humility

Put me in my place

Which is here on Earth

As a member of the human race

Equal to all

And above none

As in Heaven on Earth

It shall be done
