[verse 1: joseph idoko]
taking a break from bodying instrumentals
i sit in my room with a headful of emotions inside my mental
turning on the tv looking for something respectful to the sound of my father sleeping, momma leaving the rental
it’s 10oclock so i’m turning to fox 5
turning up the tv to volume about 9
fox five news, the reporters looking fine
first words out, “a boy shot and died.”
apparently he was walking to his apartment building
seen some n-gg-s chilling who’re thinking his color’s not appealing
he tried to reason the jacket cause of the freezing temperature of the season the only coat he had was blue
instead of colors they seen the death of their brothers and others
they were blind but in braille it wrote “shoot”
so then they listened to speech from their intuition
they shot him in the projects, he was sitting there for hours
people p-ssing him, thinking he was the average b-m
people p-ss laugh and run. cowards
the boy was thirteen and never causing a problem
not a dollar in his pocket i guess they shot him for free
in this world of corruption of which i plummet in
who’s the next one on the news? it could be me
i isolate from the room that’s holding a television
get a better vision of starting outside the window
father was sleeping next to me
rose in a silent melody
i saw an open window and that’s the room i went into
looking at the movement of vehicles in a busy street
realizing just how deceivable i could really be
i could be here right now writing this song for bad placement
accidentally throwing a flame inside a gas station
i could get all the taxes from off my momma back
drive to pick up my check and die from a heart attack
i’m overthinking i move away from the window and i go into
the living room take a seat by the table
with the mind of a child who’s only 14, i’m looking for something to read. if i’m able
i’m having trouble finding something understandable i look and see an envelope with my name in the hollow
it says that “joseph w. idoko is scheduled for heart surgery tomorrow.”
i think about calling my mom about the who? what? where? how? and why?
but it’s not july 30 1998, but feburary 15, 1955
