Shape and Mold
I'm determined to read
I'm determined to know (the truth)
I'm determined to lead (the youth)
I'm determined to grow
Peace to the queens
Acknowledgement of the kings
Toast to my sistahs
Kissy faces to my mistahs
My crew is the future
Just watch
Sleeping on my diamonds
Shine bright like a Diamond
I hear negative things
Cursing tongues
Of those who don't think she can think
Think she can't hear
Jewels
Not of my womb
But of my mind
My time
And my love
Unconditionally,
even when they make me say things I sometimes regret
Short-tempered .. We're all a little crazy
baby
Bottom of the barrel types
But still, even from the bottom,
we can see the Light
The Light ..
My little lights of the world
With an intellect that's out of this world
Warners Vernons Jerals and Jakes
and Scotts
Even when I'm gone home to glory
I'll live
through you
Shine
My legacy
My work
my story
My work is my story
Not my past
So stop asking me what's my story
They haven't flourished yet ..
But they're in full bloom
Just wait til AI discovers she has wings
Wait til my song bird sings
Just wait til Sky realizes the power of her smile
Wait til she learns that her limit lies in the clouds
There's so much potential
in my hands
So I shape
and mold
Like Clay
Leading the way
My seeds
Let them read
My seeds
Let them know
Let them lead
My seeds
Let them grow
