20 Feet Tall
My love
What did I do
To make you fall
So far from me
And now I can't recall
The cause of the fall
Selective memory
Then you
You built a wall
A 20 foot wall
So I couldn't see
But if I get off my knees
I might recall
I'm 20 feet tall

Will you know?
The other day I had a conversation with a friend about prayer, and i said that i believe that all of my prayers have been answered, some take longer for me to realize or just more praying then others, but they eventually are answred. I told her that i believed that people are often closed minded when it comes to prayer and dont realize when their prayer has infact been answered...
Simply put keeping an open mind when waiting for an answer from God is important. Remember that you are JUST a human, God is devine for a reason. The way you may be expecting your answer may not be the way God sees fit. Im only 20 years old and only have 20 years of experience, i believe i know whats best for myself, but i KNOW truly God is the only one that knows that. People often say "let Go and let God", its very catchy to say, but i know its honestly one of the hardest things to do, but just from personal experience once you can truly say that you are letting God take over, it is the best feeling ever.
Epiphanies are the best, I love understanding
Remember to keep faith all day

Chop Shop

RL Oxford
RL Dalton pants (cut into shorts)
Sperry
..trying something new, with the whole cutting of the pants *shrug*
I had a little trouble cutting a pair of $250 pants into shorts but ehh its summer and i got them for dirt cheap because someone was too lazy to get them hemmed.Not really the biggest fan of pleated pants but 1 or 2 pleats is ok i guess. The combination of pleats and material, make the pants naturally have "wrinkles" which i think give the pants character...alittle casual vibe and the fact that i just cut and the pants myself and i like the frayed bottom. Hopefully these get better with age. I may actually go up an inch or two :-X now that i look at the picture...

Dead Prez- Wolves
I'm not a hunter but i am told,
that, uh, in places like in the arctic,
where indiginous people sometimes might, might, hunt a wolf,
they'll take a double edged blade,
and they'll put blood on the blade,
and they'll melt the ice and stick the handle in the ice,
so that only the blade is protruding,
and that a wolf will smell the blood and wants to eat,
and it will come and lick the blade trying to eat,
and what happens is when the wolf licks the blade,
of course, he cuts his tongue, and he bleeds,
and he thinks he's really having a good thing,
and he drinks and he licks and he licks,
and of course he is drinking his own blood and he kills himself,
thats what the Imperialists did with us with crack cocaine,
you have these young brothers out there who think they are getting something
they gonna make a living with,
they is getting something they can buy a car,
like the white people have cars, why can't i have a car?
they getting something they can get a piece of gold,
white people have gold, why can't i have gold?
they getting something to get a house,
white people have a house, why can't i have a house?
and they actually think that theres something thats bringing resources to them,
but they're killing themsleves just like the wolf was licking the blade,
and they're slowly dying without knowing it.
thats whats happening to the community, you with me on that?
thats exactly, precisely what happens to the community,
and instead of blaming the hunter who put the damn handle and blade in the ice for the wolf, that what happens is the wolf gets the blame, gets the blame for trying to live,thats what happens in our community,
you don't blame the person, the victim,
you blame the oppressor, Imperialism, white power is the enemy,
was the enemy when it first came to Africa,
and snatched up the first African brothers here against our will,
isss the enemy today,
and thats the thing that we have to understand.
