[hometext] => Keep in mind its spoken word
[bodytext] => I know why you allow them to depict you that way in videos And every time I turn on BET, there you go Wearing something smaller, skimpier or not even there Half of the time I don’t even know who the artist is, I’m like who cares See at times, I get transfixed on the eye candy they lay before me And I’m only human so there are points impure thoughts come to storm me If you only knew that your real name is Queen Nafertiti That you should be the owner of these record labels not dancing on TV Frivolous acts with empty vessels of men parading about with jewels around their neck Dropping it like it’s hot, is hot, come on now the queen before you raised you better then that You are the daughter of Ra and Nut the goddess of the sky The only reason the sun shines The reason the stars come to greet our unworthy imaginations You are the queen that has been thrown unjustly from her throne Left about the mud and forgotten You are the mighty Nile, our African blood line They’ve built reservoirs and dams so they have forgotten about you Choose to use you and mold you the way they feel fit That’s why they think they can throw some money around and you’ll dance for it… See its starts with ownership, you got to walk like a queen Hold your head up a little higher; you got to talk like a queen So that means: *****, Chick, Ho and anything else that demeans You don’t even bat an eyelash let alone show up on scene Because I know, there is just no amount of green That could get the woman that I call queen To do some of the ***** that I done seen So queens, start teaching these princesses That wearing dresses Doesn’t only have to occur during something festive Or during a memorial Cause I’ve seen four of you Get together and wear something that’s absolutely deplorable I mean honestly Your majesty I expect more of you… It just happens to be my point of view And I should hope that you should want more for you too So let the sun shine on your sea Be the queen I know you can be [comments] => 0 [counter] => 160 [topic] => 21 [informant] => allidoiswrite82 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )
