Liberty and liberation.
Love and hate.
See we love liberty, but we hate liberation.
Liberty is the pursuit of life and equality,
Yet liberation is the struggle and sacrifices that we make to get there.
Mmmm, well we have liberty because of the liberation.
Dr. King, Malcolm X., Marcus Garvey, George Washington Carver., Harriet Tubman., Rosa Parks., Thurgood Marshall.; These liberators paid the ultimate sacrifices to liberate us, and yet we imprison ourselves all over again.
But we do have our liberties.
We can choose to go volunteer at the local rec center on Friday night or go get drunk and fuck some young bitches.
Oh, hold on, it gets better.
See we can pick a sprite, coke, root beer, or we can have a 40, fifth, or fuck it, a gallon of hendawg.
Oooh, the freedom of choice.
What a burden it is.
Should I love the mother of my child and take care of my business like a man, or should I fuck her best friend like the dumb nigga that I am, and expect her to understand.
She shall show me liberation when my black ass is in hand cuffs in the back of the squad car, because that was the last time I was going to cheat on her, so she in turns (and I do mean in turns) lets every nigga with a dick run up in her while I’m up in her friend, but when my fun stops, see that is where hers begins. I come home and what do I see, every nigga I done seen on my block in my sheets. So I feel the right to use my liberty and express my self. With in 5 minutes the paramedics are checking my health. This woman had liberated my pride and put it on the shelf.
Liberty, so often we take it for granite.
Look at me, I saw it and began to become frantic.
But panic never.
Not me. I will be liberated in 48 hours, and then we will see.
