With a soul white as the heaven
Purely innocent with emptiness
To photograph an imprint
Of a rhythm and blues
To a gospel and Jazz
From the rhythm of my mother’s love
To the bass tone of my father’s voice
Placing a rhythmatic in the walk
Even in the talk
Gives conception to my black soul
The essence of my heritage
A waiting patiently to be filled
As a sponge soaking up water
Or a pot to be filled
With those soulfully ingredients
A seat of sentimental
To breathe life ethnically and culturally
Rejuvenation a reverence
Which is said institutionalized from slavery
An expression of passion
That cultivates this black soul
To the music of Neo soul, reggae, R&B, to Hip Hop
To a filling of the kitchen table
With soul food cuisines
It is the history
Of black wisdom
Even old wise tales
That births a black soul
In a Carmel complexion

Born in a brown shell
With a soul white as the heaven
Purely innocent with emptiness
To photograph an imprint
Of a rhythm and blues
To a gospel and Jazz
From the rhythm of my mother’s love
To the bass tone of my father’s voice
Placing a rhythmatic in the walk
Even in the talk
Gives conception to my black soul
The essence of my heritage
A waiting patiently to be filled
As a sponge soaking up water
Or a pot to be filled
With those soulfully ingredients
A seat of sentimental
To breathe life ethnically and culturally
Rejuvenation a reverence
Which is said institutionalized from slavery
An expression of passion
That cultivates this black soul
To the music of Neo soul, reggae, R&B, to Hip Hop
To a filling of the kitchen table
With soul food cuisines
It is the history
Of black wisdom
Even old wise tales
That births a black soul
In a Carmel complexion
