King’s Disease
A poem inspired by The Good Earth by Pearl S. Buck and Nas’ new album titled King’s Disease
I told you
It’s not you it’s me
It’s not me it’s true
I’ll take the blame
But who do you choose
When you stand in the winning shoes
Do you
Be like every other
And do the right thing
Or do you
Go to the right path
That’s true to you
That’s fair
Is being rich fair?
I worked for it
Do I have to share?
To those who weren’t as clever
And those you don’t deserve it
I deserve it
I burned life to learn it
Every night
Turned light into opulence
To have it taken away
Common sense
