Melaninated

Trying to suppress my skin within;  that fire where it all begin

And still you reject the fact that we were born all into sin

Reverse my consciousness back to when Eve and Adam was in Eden

But then again the tree of knowledge right from wrong;  truly forgotten

Did your animalistic nature make you aware of your own angel vs demon?

Where was Allah in the shift of confusion to deliver you from your physical end?

Changing your spiritual aspect baptized in salt, from the land of Gideon

How can I take you to church then preach about the tarnished temple within?

Lifting my praises up for souls that even Allah knew would not listen

Lost in the mysteries of this universe, blinded by glittering gold that glistens

It’s in my melanin

A powerful bloodline of important businesses and dividends

How long are we going to sit here and pretend?

There is no mightier power without;

What's within, Melaninated and still born into sin

When I'm liberated I do mean to offend, is it because I'm so Intelligent?

And you fear what's in my melanin.

Maybe my eyes are so electric they give off a re-memorable vibe

Even in the darkest tunnel, fighting against those that despise 

Throwing shade and telling lies. 

I'm too melaninated to pretend and hide

Going straight to the Source in confidence I confide

You see, I was never blind learning the wisdom that comes within my third eye

I'm a bit witty and never too shy

Opportunist never really just ask themselves why.

Elevated studying my ancestors on co-pilot and like airplanes we be fly.

Times get hard for our melaninated babies so I cry

The program's so deep they'd rather not educate themselves with knowledge for a greater trial.

My melanin is the thickness in my lips, the sound of my voice, an ecstasy essence of  pure bliss

As the stardust twinkling upon my skin, feel my ether my unforgettable sunkiss. 

The only way to carry this luxury is to live in greatness like  the perfect meaning to exist.

Beings born with giant intellect, pure genius some of the Realist are certainly missed.

Pumping my fist for black power  meanwhile they be pissed

Melaninated consciousness from elevation and temptation 

Purpose driven with leadership qualities trained to be very patient 

Nurture my soul, so these traits are passed on through this melanin generation!
