My school has a short hair policy It’s called no dreads or braids But I saw a dude rockin’ a mullet I guess that don’t make ‘em ‘fraid Long Hair’s against the rules They scream and they shout But it ain’t really Long Hair We know what they about

I strike with the fury of Cassius Sublime and in his prime With the wisdom of Ali Turn a profit from my rhymes Cash is nice, but I mean something more Poverty is not the thing that makes a man poor While the rich get richer, I get more sly I attack the elite with witticisms so wry Gemini, twin like Frye I switch my styles, so Furious Leave enemies delirious So young and mysterious Call Holmes and Watson I’m too quick to cover like Jahan Dotson Let that be a lesson if you like Pat Boone I’m Paul Atreides and the world is my Dune

Ah, February, the longest month of the year. It’s not usually cold at all. The skies are sunny and clear. And everyone’s out late, having a ball. Ah, February, Black History Month is here. We’ve turned the worst into the best. The weather and the number of days disappear As February is another time of joy and unrest. Every month is Black History Month. February is not unique. We are more than our struggles— There is love here too.
