A Word For All by devilmaycry: 12:16am On Nov 17, 2015
The path crazy
.
When you stay and think how the rich oppress the poor lately
.
Their lands taken
.
Itz heart breaking...

And what's the Law saying ?
.
They got nothing to say...cos its all mixed up like when you love making
.
The government??..we should stop blaming
.
But politicians that dnt care...karma is all waiting
.
Cos if they think they gon remain high forever....like walls of jericho,they will fall greatly
.
Saw a beggar today...he coughed heavy
.
Cars passed by..no one cared..my heart raced me
.
Tears flowed...he could be your father..yet it seem the world hate him
.
Had just 70bucks..I dropped it..he smiled,thanked and waved plenty
.
A burden dropped...I prayed gravely
.
Why have a house with 20 bedrooms..live alone..and yet many stay wailing
.
No shatter and food..not even a pay waiting
.
How many cars you gat ?..10 or more...yet you always pass by wen a fellow trekks daily
.
Or worst u do..wind down..and then hailings
.
but sir...if you tink you way ready
.
Wen trumpet blows...and you tink you gat your play steady
.
Dnt be suprised you won't make it
.
Or start crying when you see others getting there....even the poor ones u neglected or taught they stayed lazy
.
Wait...ever crossed your mind what our so called pastors been up praising
.
They create societies...for more money..that's how they operating
.
Tithes actually going wer.. ..next we see their pockets weight sink
.
Or bad...a foreign account,they stuff plenty
.
Even those truly serving God aint really coperating
.
I mean...look at some of ur church members...financially help the poor praying
.
oohh..sowiee..u gat 7 private jets..that wil fly you to heaven?..am jst saying
.
Its good to live comfortable...but why build a school even some of ur members cnt attend..sir that's tough way in
.
Aint judging tho..who am I to judge?..really..m jst saying
.
But Let's call a spade a spade....and stop framing
.
Ever sat down to think...what's your life rating ?
.
Outta 10...you either two,one or half may b
.
Think life all about the sex....money even blind dating
.
Smoke weed...smoke shisha ..til ya heart failing
.
Rapp and dump one gal today..pick another tomao..nigg is dah a new work...pakaging?
.
A mechanic...or bricklayer...yet you tryna be fly claiming
.
Work after six..u bath quickly then jump on FB and post how u left your office work early
.
Or how ur car got scratched...then u happy as you start seeing "likes" many
.
But bro...jst one question...when blocks start getting tyres lately
.
Sell tomatoes in the market...yet you say "am working" in an oil factory
.
School in one dead poly...but all we knw is "am a graduate" frm harvard..ooh Lord save me !
.
How about we stop been fake on social medias...and gladly be...
.
Who we really are.....but we hardly will
.
Cos Everyone wnts "high shoulder"...they mad with silk
.
Wait...I changed ryhmes??...forget that...what matters how my message badly stick
.
Remember how a lil boy neva got scared to speak the truth...even wen his dad beat him
.
this is the message...am passing please
.
What have I forgotten...emm..ohh..you knw mourinho ??..yes they sacking him
.
Bye

The cadence of your piece suggests a rap song rather than a poem. Is that what you intended?

The subject-matter is one on we can never be admonished enough. Well done for making an effort. Don't stop. And if you are looking to improve the quality of your output, I would suggest that you begin by paying a little more attention to your spelling and grammar. Spell words in full and punctuate appropriately and with purpose. Most serious people are repulsed by textspeak -- dat iz, writin lk dz iz nt gon do u any gud. Ppl wnt lk to read ur wrk.

I wish you the best.
