Exploring things of significance to me (Non-poetic.)

Renew your mind

Miss. Lauryn Hill once said we must destroy to rebuild
 I guess that’s why our shoes still fit
 And we can't quit
 Insisting on distilling the Father's teaching
 Blaspheming when J-Hove comes on TV
 We 'free our minds' then fail to galvanize
Rather compromise, than revolutionize
The same shoe size, when will we rise?
Still...
Still we seat at hypocrisy’s feet
Still speaking victory yet feating defeat
Still allowing Satan’s poisons to further seep into our pores
While leaking and reaping seeds sown of afflicted minds
Minds stuck in conformity, stuck in these times
Still stuck in the walls of the devil’s molds and chimes
While crying to our own captive minds to help free us from these lies?
Why can’t we look to He who laid His life on the line?
Our crevices will only reap unhappiness and strife
Until we renew our minds
It is from the ground that we were formed
And it is to the ground that we must return
Because it is from this ground, that we will rise
And become the people, He had in mind
Renew your mind
