My Pyramid

You wake up one day
And realize everything you knew and loved had gone astray
Even your first true love had run away
Close friends and distant family members begin to turn away
Turn their backs on you so their faces start to fade away.
Now is this a bad thing? I don’t think so it’s a part of the human experience
And experience is wisdom
On second thought last night I had vision
That I lived at the top of this rectangular prism
And right beneath me dwelled all the “isms”
You know what im referring to don’t you
Won’t you
List ‘em, you’ve got class, race, sex etc
All types of things that could un level ya
Or is it possible that they could better ya
See in my pyramid dwelling
My friend’s mom won’t have arthritic swelling
In the urban communities globally there will be no bullet shelling
Now im telling
You and anyone who is following along
I did not come here to sing you a sad song
Or string you along
For a ride through my life and times
I refuse to put my life in rhymes
Just small anecdotes
Cliché to say
But I promise I’ve got the antitode
And you can quote me when I say
I love you, im sorry and I miss you every single day
