 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

Dear Mr
Gil Scott-Heron
You became an audible hero
When most were just stuck on heroin
Better men rose to the challenge
When you parted for that poetical palace
Kings took sips from their chalice
Soldiers saluted your existence
You spoke to the educators
And the misfits
So intricate with your idiosyncrasies
Deliberate so
Idiots can be in sync and see
You planted a seed with that…
“Message to Messengers”
So I took heed…
And I let it register
So ahead of your time…
Rappers today
Still recycle your lines
You defined the fact
That greed got us declined
Rejected by society
So we allow private agencies
To color us blind
Lack of spines…
Got us falling for anything
Makes sense
Of why we praise our enemies
Your energy…
Could’ve sparked a movement
Where we fight for ours
Put a stop to the abusement
Instead
We allow crumbs for soothing
And let them move in
At their leisure for their amusement
We’ve become stupid!
Since you passed
Knowledge has been negated
Because our current orators
Seem conceptually constipated
We’ve been fumigated and pepper sprayed
So our vision is impaired
Proven by what we say
Nowadays
Everybody is “Little”
Not just by title
That’s expected with
Our cross-dressed Ameriscared idols
Confusion is vital
Our people: Suicidal
Supposed leaders now twerk on frontlines
For some views
What are we to do to revitalize pride?
Feeble sheep have become accidental spies
Maybe the revolution will be televised
Because they introduced Facebook Live!
