I am a Man
|
Posted By: Ezra Johnson on July 12, 2008 I’m workin hard I go home everyday with cuts and bruises like "damn this work is hard” But I remember when I was hardly workin Me without money was just hardly workin Now everyday I go home and look at the calisis on my hands and Im able to say that now I AM A MAN cause on my own two feet I stand But still my growth continues Everyday I wake up and see that the sun is still burnin I know that I am still learnin Learnin a better plan, to become a better man Cause bein content, is not something that I understand One day, ima buy me some land as big as neverland But as a young man I was taught to “never say never” man So ima call it……..foreverland I AM A MAN! And not because of my genetalia but, My refusal of failure As I listen to sweet songs sung by Mahalia I dream of success Knowin that my motivation is motivated by this thing under my chest and……… Until the day it stops beatin A MAN is what im a achieving to be so Please don’t stop believing in me If you enjoyed this article, Join HBCU CONNECT today for similar content and opportunities via email! |
