We pledge allegiance
To the colors of Butter’ Tims, 20-inch rims, diamond emblems, platinum gems,
Sex icons with the latest fashines.
Enshrined in acrylic nails that can’t post bail.
Ya’ll can’t tell?
We pledge allegiance
To looking good and ain’t gotta pot to piss or shit.
Wearing name brand clothing and can’t pronounce it.
Buying high priced jewels looking like fools.
Buying two-dollar stocking caps when granny got that!
Running ball in ney best kicks and get mad when a brotha’ step on it.
Connected to a cell to be paged while on the bus stop delayed.
Stay paid and always broke,
Gotta Bally’s membership and don’t even work.
Talkin’ ‘bout, “I’m serious” when they a big joke.
Black folk

It amazes me to see this on a constant. Now to put that same energy, zeal, and focus in something positive the rewards that they would reap would be remarkable.
