This photo to me symbolizes new life and all that it can be in it's raw form, do not let this once beautiful phenomena such as birth be something that is left questioned!!!
Pop’s Reprise
(Off of Common’s “Be” CD)
Be, be here, be there, be that, be this,
Be grateful for life, be grateful to life,
Be gleeful everyday, for being the best swimmer among five hundred thousand,
Be-nigh, be you, be mom's mean pie, be little black Sambo with bad hair,
Be aware of Willie Lynch’s, Be, be boundless energy,
Be a four star ghetto general, be no one except I,
Be a strong academic student, be an A student in sociology,
Be food for thought to the growing mind, be the author of your own horoscope,
Be invited, be long-living, be forgiving, be not forgetful,
Be a proud run, only to return to fight another day,
Be peaceful if possible, but justice in ways,
Be high when you low, be on time but knowing to go,
Be cautious of the road to college, taking a detour through Vietnam or the Middle East,
Be absent of wars at any past or present fought amongst themselves,
Be visual of foreclosure over your shoulder while begging,
A nation built on free labor for reparation, Be a cartopogropher,
Be a map-maker, be able to find Afro-American man,
Search thoroughly it may be close to black man,
Be amended 5/5ths, be amended 5/5ths human,
Be the owner of more land than is set aside for wild life,
Be cupid, to world government,
Be found among the truth, lost tribe,
Be at full strength when walking through the valley,
Be not foolish as tender 18 of the mountain tops,
Be a brilliant soul, sparkling in the galaxy while walking on earth,
Be loved by God as much as God loved Gandhi and Martin Luther King,
Be that last one of 144,000, be the resident of the twelfth house,
Be... eternal!
