DON'T LET IT BE A MYSTERY **
by Brian T. Williams
Parents talk to ur kids don't let it be a mystery.....
Don't be afraid to let them know their OWN BLACK HISTORY.
Even though families come from different lands....
Don't be afraid to hold someone else's hands.
We all know OLD BLACK HISTORY it came and went...
Now we have NEW BLACK HISTORY a WORLD CHANGING EVENT...
The election of our FIRST BLACK PRESIDENT.
Treat people with respect,like u want to be treated...
With respect in return u will always be greeted.
God has blessed us all being here today....
For he is OUR GUIDING LIGHT,SHOWING US THE WAY.
Black people have come far but there is still room to grow...
Channel all negative energy into positive as u go.
Life can be short,but it can be long for some...
So live life to the fullest,but also have fun.
And get off that path/stop following zeroes...
Get on the one that produces nothing but HEROES.
So Parents talk to ur kids don't let it be a mystery...
LET THEM KNOW THEY ARE "OUR FUTURE" MAKING
NEW BLACK HISTORY.
