I Just Wanna Be Real - Spoken Word

I'm  not looking for human appeal

I just wanna be real

I'm not looking for your seal

Of approval

I just want the removal

Of unnecessary masks

And all inhumane tasks

Just one thing I ask

I just wanna be real

I want to really FEEL

My humanity

Even if it is insanity

I'm done with pretense and vanity

If you're not cool with this

I won't take your dis

Personally

Or respond cursingally

I still love you

And want you to be real too

I just want you to do you

Without all the pretense

And defense

Come! Let's make amends!

Let's be real together

And walk through the stormy weather

I know it's messy

But this is life's greatest blessing

To be REAL

And to FEEL

Our humanity

Even all it's insanity

Together

Without the need to sever

Covenants of promise

Even when we're like doubting Thomas

Let's not turn away

By the words we say

But come feel my wounds

I'll make room

For you

And I'll feel your wounds too

Cause I'm not looking for human appeal

I just wanna be real.

Religious or Righteous? - Spoken Word

You call yourself the righteous

But you're forever in a state of crisis

You put bandaids on bullet wounds

And you assume

You're the healer

The healing balm dealer

When in truth you're a reality stealer

And the deceptive wheeler

Of false security deals

Yet, you possess tremendous appeal

To the masses

In all the social classes

You force fear based decisions

And claim God's vision

To be your own

As you stone

The wounded souls

Filling the bowls

Of wrath

Through your "righteous" attack

That's just wack!

But you get away with it

I must admit

You had me for a minute

Cause you know just how to spin it

But you'll never win it

As long as Truth endures

And continually cures

The disillusioned

Through Spirit infusion

Father, forgive them!

And give them

Another chance

To take a glance

In the mirror of your Love

And SEE from eyes above

What they've failed to see

In their wretched carnality.

Forgive them! They know not what they do!

They know not YOU!

For You are LOVE!

And even they are sent from above

And not beneath

But their perception is weak

And they know not how to seek

True justice!

For we MUST THIS

Seek

To reach the mountain peak

Where You dwell

And from which we all fell

Will I in anger exclude them

Or will I in Love include them?

Christ in me the hope of glory

Challenges the story

Of revenge

Cause hostility must end!

I declare peace to you

I declare release to you!

You can be set free

And you can be

Filled with tranquility

I release the sound of reason

And I declare a new season

A season of reconciliation

Throughout every nation

Now is the time

Peace on Earth we shall find.

Be made righteous

And delivered from your state of crisis

In Jesus' name

Behold, YOUR new name

May you never perceive the same

In Jesus' name!

Limitless You - Spoken Word

The restraints are unraveling

The restraints meant to control

The expression of your redeemed soul

They are nothing but limits

Maintained by gimmicks

When in truth nothing is impossible 

And you are unstoppable 

When you are released

From the need to please

And all restraints are seized

By an all powerful Source

Who determines your true course

Your course may be invisible 

But it is divisible 

Only by ONE

Cause that's the sum of all parts

By which you've been marked 

From the very start

No more hiding 

Or confiding

In non-absolutes

It's time to get to the root

Of the true you

Back to the Garden

Where it all started 

Put away old wine skin

The leaves you used to cover your sin

No need to hide your nakedness

Or deny your awakedness 

Put on the New Man

And stand

Whole in Christ 

Rid your eyes of the scales

Of all religious tales

Myths and legends

Are no substitute for greater dimensions 

Of Truth 

Only described in books

But demonstrated through Life 

Born out of supernatural sight

And displays of supernatural Light

Descriptions 

Are poor depictions 

Of experience 

That always include beautiful variance

So, let the restraints unravel

It's time to travel

Through Life 

Displaying Light 

What an awesome sight

And wonder 

When all limits are put asunder!

The restraints are unraveling 

And I SEE you traveling

Just as you were always meant to do

Behold! The true limitless you!

Awakening - Spoken Word

When you awaken

Do not hasten

To speak

Just seek

To unfold

Out of the mold

To which you were sold

As a slave

And be remade

By your Re Creator

Be no anticipator

Just release

And receive

According to plan

You're becoming a new man

Of which no on will be a fan

So, just stand

And await

The final state

Of your awakening

For there's no mistakening

You have no control

Of the awakening of your own soul

Letting Go! - Spoken Word

My hands let go.

When I said, "I know."

I left no room to grow

And limited places to go

So, my heart lets go

As I sow

A seed of release

A seed of peace

That brings forth trees

That sway in the breeze

I drop to my knees

And I bow

As every knee shall bow

And throw down their crowns

At the sound

Of inclusion

Total infusion

No more an intrusion

Cause my hands let go

What I think I know

Cause I'd rather grow

Than know

And my heart lets go

Cause I'd rather sow

Than know

And I'd rather glow

Than remain in the dark

So, I ignite a spark

And let all things fall apart

I'm remembering

And rendering

A distant recollection

Of a forced confession

That I renounce

Now that I'm unbound

By the sound

Of inclusion

Total infusion

No longer an intrusion

Cause my hands let go

What you told me to know

If I can't be me

Inside this we

Then I'll cease to be

Cause I'd rather see

With authenticity

Than bow my knee

To a false image of me

So, my heart lets go

And I'm freed to go

Where I can really glow

A place of inclusion

Total infusion

Where I'm no longer an intrusion

But I AM

Therefore, I am

A true reflection

Without rejection

Without limits

Or gimmicks

So, my hands let go

What I think I know.

The Only Gospel That Is Good - Spoken Word

I am not contaminated by the world.

I am contaminated by the judgements

Of my own flesh that seek to divide

And to decide

What is fit

Or grossly unfit

For redemption

An ancient invention

Called religion

Known only by division

Till Christ appeared

And drew near

The temple of exclusion

Where He became an intrusion

Through the duplication

And multiplication

Of fish and bread

For the masses

An extermination of social classes

Till the rulers of division

Made the decision

They wanted Him dead

Then He said

My body is broken

Cause you want a token

But I AM come to give Life

To become ONE with My wife

So, let My body be broken

Partake of your token

If you will

Allow My blood to spill

Peace be still

For division

Is not My decision

Separating goats and sheep

Causes Me to weep

Like the one who emptied herself at My feet

And her life did speak

For generations to come

Just by what she had done

By death I redeem you

And by Life I wean you

From your decisions

Based on division

For FREEDOM is My mission

Freedom from the pain

Of masking your true name

Freedom from the vanity

And insanity

Of every decision

Marked by division

For I call you to wholeness

But you've become soulless

Soulless by decision

Soulless by division

I come in the Name of the Book

Let's take another look

At that name

You'll never see the same

For that name is Love

I AM come from above

Not from beneath

Yet, I numbered myself with the weak

And I chose to speak

On their behalf

I caused the broken to laugh

And I Myself became broken on Moses' staff

I was raised up as a new Law

I stood straight and tall

And broke down the barrier wall

Between God and man

I redeemed the land

Called Earth

And instituted a new birth

So that you could rediscover your true worth

I call you out from among divisions

And into decisions

Of the duplication

And multiplication

Of the fullness

Of wholeness

It's a new Day

So, watch what you say

You are not contaminated by the world

You are contaminated by the judgements

Of your own flesh that seek to divide

And to decide

What is fit

Or grossly unfit

For redemption

An ancient invention

Called religion

Known only by division

I AM He

Who causes you to see

I came to set captives free

That all men may know Me

And be set free

To live eternally in Me

Beginning NOW

Right here, right now

Heaven on Earth

Humanity's new birth

No other Gospel is good than the one

Embodied in the Son

Who was broken to make all souls whole

And revealed Heaven's goal

To be the duplication

And multiplication

Of the fullness

Of wholeness

In the Earth

Behold our New Birth

I am not contaminated by the world

I am contaminated by the judgements

Of my own flesh that seek to divide

And to decide

What is fit

Or grossly unfit

For redemption

An ancient invention

Called religion

Known only by division

So, peace be still

If you will.

The Neglected Covenant

Living in Eternity - Spoken Word

Living in a space called Love

Living in a time called eternity, eternity

Living in a space called Love

Living in a time called eternity, eternity

Your fire is burning

Your passion is churning

You’re a sage discerning

And you realize

The lies

Regardless of size

Have all demised

To nothing

Cause of this ONE thing

Called Love & Eternity

Every limitation is a façade

That could never stand up to God

And you’re a part of His body

So, it’s time to rise up

And time to size up

To your new reality

Living in a new city

Creatives take no pity

Cause we’re all just as witty

Living in the same city

Called Love & Eternity

Living in a space called Love

Living in a time called eternity, eternity

Living in a space called Love

Living in a time called eternity, eternity

There are no limitations

For this rising Scribal Nation

That spans the generations

Of eternity, not time

Drink up this new wine

And become the sign

Of Resurrection

Come out of introspection

And enter into community

Consumed by UNITY

Unity of Love

From above

Unity for Eternity

Your identity

Was clothed in mystery

But your hiding is history

Cause the revelation

Of a Scribal Nation

Has come to Light

And set all things right

In God’s and your sight

Living in a space called Love

Living in a time called eternity, eternity

Living in a space called Love

Living in a time called eternity, eternity

One eye with seven spectrums

No need for elections

Based on popularity

And no need for disparity

Eternity is not wasting

There is a place in this nation

Just for you

Just hold true

To your true who

And fret not to define

Everything you do

Except to Love

Like the One above

Who loves through you

And reveals the true you

You, yourself never knew

Except that you’ve been consumed

By Love & Eternity

Living in a space called Love

Living in a time called eternity, eternity

Living in a space called Love

Living in a time called eternity, eternity

I Got Goded - Spoken Word

Inspired by Apostle Theresa Harvard Johnson's message, "God with Me"! Thank you Apostle for the phenomenal impartation. This one is dedicated to you! Shalom to all!

I got Goded

I done been spotted

By 'da all seeing eye

I ain't talkin' illuminate

Gotti!

I'm talkin' 'bout Christ

Cause I'm a part of His body

And illuminate

Ain't nothin' but fraudi

I got Goded

Cause Love plotted

Before 'da foundation of Earth

How to redeem humanity's worth

I didn't have to search

Or recite a prayer or Bible verse

I believed

And received

The One called Christ

Who paid 'da price

For my redemption

Let me mention

That I died with Him

And I resurrected with Him

I was arrested

Cause Love was fully invested

In my redemption

In spite of every religious invention

God fulfilled His original intention

Concerning me

By setting me free

Yes! God with me!

God in me!

Love did win me

I got Goded

I was prodded

And consumed

By mercy and grace

Filling every empty space

With 'da wonderful taste

Of pure Love

The One who came from above

Cause God IS Love

So, God Goded me

Spotted me

And prodded me

He set me free

To see Love

To become Love

To be Love

Yes! I got Goded

I done been spotted

By 'da all seeing eye

I ain't talkin' illuminate

Gotti!

I'm talkin' 'bout Christ

Cause I'm a part of His body

And illuminate

Ain't nothin' but fraudi

I got Goded

And I'll never be 'da same

Cause He took my shame

God Goded me

Spotted me

And prodded me

He set me free

To see Love

To become Love

To be Love

I'm immersed

In mercy and grace

And stand ever before His face

Swallowed up in His embrace

All because

God Goded me!

Spotted me

And prodded me

He set me free

To see Love

To become Love

To be Love

I got Goded!
