[NO RESPECT] DEDICATED TO MY SISTER Naressa Allen.
THE MUSIC FOR THIS PIECE...

Lets talk about the word respect as it relates to the black man and woman...not just the one who sits in the high places and forgets his peoples plight.
Standing behind the glass and steel as it glints in the eyes of the common man who is so blinded by the gleam that he falls to bended knee... a slave to the inhumanity.
Black men still suffer for the ancient things that preachers tell them they should forget about... color of Jesus... wanting to be free.
Nat Turner, Marcus Garvey, Toussant Le'overture, Malcolm X and Barack Obama as the press puts a fresh ink stain on the page.
A smear across a mans good name.
So easy to fall from the graces and into the pits where poverty welcomes all with open arms... rotting teeth.
It seems the only time that an African man can get some respect is when he is kissing some ass and licking some damn boots.
Cause he better not tell the truth or he will be labled an angry black man... accused of hostility... scorned and ridiculed.
Overlooked by the very people who he tries to awake... scandalized and satanized.
No respect as lies and truth meet on the road to infamy which though laid by black hands has a white line that divides.
A nation of conquered souls who have lost all respect... victims of our success... victims of our past... lost in the books of His-story.
Disrespected.
