HOMECOMING!

HOMECOMING!
Oh, when the saints go marching in
Oh, when the saints go marching in
Lord how I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in

I'm finally going home 2 the BIG EASY


And it ain't Easy


Yeah I'm a fan of Lil Weezy


But its so hard


Looking at the boulevard


Where I grew up with pace


6130 Providence Place


See dis be the 9th ward


My grandparents place


Emily and Roland Evans


Strong Black African Americans


Taught me 2 be proud 2 be Black


DISCLAIMER: and MEXICAN!


"You light wit white skin but at heart you Black,


So don't you ever 4get that fact"


My gramps and granny would tell me dat


Rest in Peace!


But there ain't no peace


So many dead & deceased


By the Hurricane


Not Denzel as Rubin Carter


See this shitz so much harder


A punch 2 da face


1 Hitter Quitter 1836 fatalities


All cuz of 1 agency: FEMA


Responsible for Hurricane Katrina


U know what it (FEMA) stands for????


Find Evey Mexican Available


Nah I heard it stands for Fix Eveything My Ass


Especially after the blast


Yeah I said it Blast


The explosion! how u miss that so fast


Cuz it wasn't the storm dat took the levees


Fat rich old white men with there belly's


Waiting for an opportunity to take back the land


They tried in 1965 man


Hurricane Betsy Yeah we remember


But that was President Johnson not Georgia Bush


So fuck Michael D. Brown


After what he did to my town


But what goes up most come down


175 miles per hour


Winds so fast with so much power


Thousands displaced from their homes


Packed into the New Orleans Super Dome


Ill treated with lack of respect


But I'm still coming home


See this be my birthplace famous for:


Jazz, Gumbo, Jambalaya, Etouffée, Cafe Au Lait, and muthafuckin Beignets


And we be swerving when drivin on bourbon STREET


And it be the Sheet, I mean da Shit


While on CANAL, goin wild


Mardi Gras: oh its a party y'all


With the Zulu parades


Niggaz on 24inch blades sittin on Escalades


So many escapades!


And now NBA All Star Weekend


What were they thinkin????


I'm coming home again


And I miss her


And she misses me


The best recipe...


HOMECOMING!

Oh, when the saints go marching in

Oh, when the saints go marching in

Lord how I want to be in that number

When the saints go marching in

NEVER FORGET HURRICANE KATRINA!!!

My Heart


My Heart
Tear it out
Its yourz
And has always been
Blood drippin'
U Need 2 stop trippin'
My Heart
It will always be with you
No matter how far you are
Whether your here now or gone forever
It will always be yourz eternally
Unconditionally weathered
Rainstorms Rigorously Ravishing Routines
My Heart
Ya see it beatz 2 yourz
Patterns so eloquent & full
syncopated
bump bump bump bump
that its only one sound
Our Heartz
Lineage ancestors 2 ancestors
Generations filling the gap
through a melodic soliloquy
bounding us through endless rhythms
heard faintly in the distance of struggling nations
Yet we overcome
although it may be hard & dark
I want you 2 always know
You will always have...
MY HEART
