MOURNING IN AMERICA

We're mourning in America
We have a right to grieve
The level of his incompetence
Is not to be believed
We’re approaching four years in
But what has he achieved?
With a sense of permanence
That sooner or later won’t leave

We're mourning in America
Because he’s so ill suited
For the office that he holds
I think he should be booted
And I can’t help but lament the fact
That our tax dollars have been looted
When it comes to the pandemic
The experts have been muted

We're mourning in America
Because we’re under a pall
And his slow response to the Covid-19
Is responsible most of all
But he uses it as an excuse
For the present economic stall
And he’s in cahoots with those who say
Where we go one go all

We're mourning in America
Take a look around

LIL’ WAYNE

Lil’ Wayne

Has gone insane

He’s backingTrump

The black man’s bane

I know Wayne’s not 

A human being

But I can’t believe

What I’m seeing

 

Lil’ Wayne

Has gone mad

He lost the street cred’

That he had

If it wasn’t so sick

It would be sad

To see him

Reaching out for dad

 

Lil’ Wayne

Just ain’t the same

And I don’t know

Who’s to blame

He backs Trump

Please explain

Hasn’t he caused us

Enough pain?

 

Lil’ Wayne

All up in the frame

Smiling with Trump

Like it’s a game

What it is

Is a crying shame

Guess that’s the price

He’s pays fo...

I’M QUARANTINED

I’m quarantined 

Time passes slow

And I’m running 

Out of dough

How far does a dollar go?

What the future holds 

I don’t know?

Life’s become a real shit show

 

I’m quarantined

Can’t leave my house

I’m keeping company

With a mouse

I’m about to get

Myself soused

If God willing 

I can stay housed

 

Thousands share 

My sentiment

I can’t pay my

Monthly rent

And my landlord

Seems hell-bent

In kicking me out

He’s thatl intent

 

I don’t bother

Getting dressed

Speaking truthfully 

I’m too depressed

And I don’t have

A job no less

But that you might...

HE KILLS YOU

I know he thrills you

While he also kills you

So will you still  go

To the Trump Rodeo?

We’d like to know

It’s not a James Brown show

Where fans have to go

In the rain or snow

 

I know he turns you on

But enough to mourn

Long after he is gone?

Cuz you lost your senses

And paid the consequences

Of the virus spread

Hear what I said?

You could well be dead

 

What’s so fascinating

His style of debating
That most are hating?

Or is it his coiffure

Maybe it’s much more

Than how he wears his hair 

That brings you there

Just to be fair

 

But whatever it is

The man is like the wiz

I’m talking square biz

Cuz people are hurting

And...

FACTORY JOBS

Factory jobs 

Ain’t coming back

Unfortunately 

That’s a salient fact

Trump’s statements to the contrary

He needs to retract

It won’t happen by fiat

That’s presidentially backed

 

Factory jobs?

I’ve got news

Have gone out of style

Like high buttoned shoes

Stop lying to the people

You’re not Howard Hughes

You haven’t created a thing

Nor have you paid dues

 

Factory jos

Let’s shed a tear

Are past icons

From yesteryear

All but vanished 

As they disappear

They no longer exist

As you might fear

 

Factory jobs?

Mr.President please!

We need a hand

To get off of our knees

You don’t wanna confront

HIS CONSTANT DICTUM

By: Cedric McClester

 

We hear him complain

They spied on his campaign

But the fact still remains

Finding the proof is his bane

Because as much as he insists

The proof doesn’t exist

So we’re left to ask why

He keeps telling us that lie?

 

Simply put it’s a deflection

He’s a master of misdirection

And it reveals his imperfection

According to a cross section

Of everyone who has been polled

Who’ve counted the lies he’s told

And if I may be so bold

It tends to leave them cold

 

See his constant dictum 

Seems to be that he’s a victim

Of some existential plot

But what proof (have we got)

We who’ve been bereft

Have a need to catch our breath

Long after he has...

DROPPING LIKE FLIES

By: Cedric McClester

 

They’re dropping like flies

Wherever he appears

But we have a president

Who never cares

About the consequences of

The actions that he dares

While acting as if

He’s unawares

 

There’s only one thing

That he’s focused on

Getting reelected so

He isn’t gone

From the spotlight that

He’s coveted all along

He’s a weak president

Who projects like he’s strong

 

Meanwhile he talks about

Having turned the corner

While there’s an increased need

For a local coroner 

He blame the pandemic on

A far eastern foreigner

And manages the virus

As if he’s  a warrener

 

The fact of the matter is

He&r...
