Black Fist Cafe (Interlude)

(album: What A Time To Be In Love - 2020)

My colleagues be my hits men on every occasion
Standing over me like knights over the globe
I'm the world inhabitable pen prodigy
Pulp like steep, yet condemned when I bleed
But look at me
A woman in a skin the whole world need
The seventies in my hair
The nineties in my futuristic flare
Wearing googles with a twenty-twenty vision
Mind [?] by the grace of precision of a black woman's decision to be great in her hair
Underwater living
I breathe and blood into birth giving
A gambling huff, a roll of the dice
I can reincarnate again and again and still choose black twice
Check my shoulders
Look at the skyline across the bridge of my chest
"What's going on?" Marvin asked first
Raheem redeem the cords of the quest
These countless hurts ain't just a rehearsal
They want us to see death
Like [?] the epidemy of birth
Our tears may stand the concrete of our stare
But they'll be the river for this world forever
Shed some
And when you're done
Watch the world you've birth
Grow
Grow
Grow

You're listening to WDMG 69.1
Wanna give thanks for that
The lifluence cyphel
Spoken words by Ra Brown
For that Black Fist moment
And now for you're listening pleasure
The new soul era presents
The rhythm and blues Colleagues quartet
Featuring Raheem DeVaughn
