Always.Push.Forward

  • 12-21-16

    My restlessness guided by my drive to change life in ways that may only exist as a dream. That’s usually how it starts right?…Anxious to create a future. Sixty seconds to me became as valuable as an hour. Echoing inside my head my grandfather “waste anything but time”. I caught myself thinking of the end…

  • WordToSelf.

    Dear Dawson, You probably wondering where we go from here. Looking over the span of this past year, tired you are slightly. It takes a tough spirit to turn troubled times into progress. I’ve literally seen you travel to places you never been before. Lessons learned, homes for comfort you built completely destroyed. There was…

  • The Message.

    They want you in fear, They kill black men to grab your attention, They take away your fathers and brothers, They find the root of your support system and kill it, They want you to fear giving birth, They destroy the minds of growing black men so they have nothing to offer, They tie your…

  • Numbers Lie?…

    If your argument is more whites are killed by police than blacks, I advise the white community to bring these situations to the light. To me that number means nothing, as humans we tend to know what we see and what we experience. You want us to believe you face the same issues we do?…

  • Sun Down.

    Sun down, The moment my life becomes a novelty, A beacon of hope starts to dawn on me, I could never tie myself to poverty, Lost pride, Then found the God in me, Young man learned when to let the father speak,

  • 7/3

    They call it the land of the free, Just to tell you nothing’s free, Tell you to chase your dreams, While you running for somebody else’s.

  • Just Another Nigga.

    Something I could never be, Born to leave a legacy, Though I’m born into hell it seem, This little light of mine I let it beam, Refuse to be another nigga the world already seen, Don’t need a screen to change the scene, Change your path alter expectations, Snakes hidden in the grasses waiting, See…

  • The Bottom

    “You’re never as low as you think”-Bas It takes time and true understanding to learn that we create our own idea of “the bottom”. It starts internally with the things we tie our hearts to that brings us joy. When they aren’t working in ways we believe we need them we begin to feel hopeless.…

  • Reasons To Die Before 25 (Excerpt)

    This would have been my suicide note, Filled with pain and promises I broke, Giving your eye a tear after each line that I wrote, I would have told you how I gave up, How I was tired of standing at the edge of this cliff, I jumped to see if the bottom was better,…

  • God Is Love…

    You’d look at me different if I called God Allah, We pray for the same things, If I pray once compared to your 3, Where in the bible does that confirm your better than I, When did this become a competition, You wonder why many question religion, You’d step on my neck to get closer…
