Ego-tripping

by Bobby McDonald

We're walking a crooked path
head's are swinging from side to side
hat's are tilted to the rear
an pants are hanging to the knee's
with paranoid expressions! on our face's!
ego tripping! ourselve's to death!!
pow!! another life is gone,
mother's are crying! out loud!
sister's are growing up alone,
an we black men are still asking one another
why?
why my brother's,
why must we die!
can't we see that our hate is only suppressed lie's
that leads us to our sinful crimes,
tormenting the soul with our own self-infliction
raping our siter's
disrespecting our mother's
an we brother's still continue to fall dead!
on this crooked path to hell,
let's stop the hate!,
stand up an be proud! fathers,
respect our mother's
be there for our sister's
an we men start embracing!
 an loving! one another,
before knowone is left
not me, not even yourself,
pow!! another life is gone,
ego tripping! ourselves to death!!..
