Are you SleepWalking

We live surrounded by things that tantalize and tempt and satisfy our senses so delectably we forget that our spirits are as equally insatiable. We start making those big dollars, and can afford the luxury cars, houses in the suburbs, exotic vacations, high end apparel and forget we came from the slums. We forget the struggles of our parents. We forget the struggle of their parents. We forget our own struggles to get out of whatever hood, ghetto, and/or dysfunctional household we were brought up in. Some of us become SleepWalkers. Life is sooo good it's easy to forget the struggle. All the things that are important. As we make that climb to the top of our selective mountains we forget the pain and struggle upon reaching the Summit. We forget the people we were forced to leave behind to get there. When we had nothing we were easily in remembrance of  our Creator, of Karma, we had to be in order to keep the faith that things would get better.

Don't be a sleep walker. Wake Let this be a wake up call to you. Karma is a motherfucka, and will come get your ass. Don't let the media make you think you are safe because you attained what they deem as success. Don't let the authorities make you complacent with their injustices towards other because you got your shit straight and don't what happens to someone else hasn't happened to you. You get right law authority figure on the wrong day and you can be one of the masses who's shit ain't straight. Money can't solve all things.It's all an illusion. And injustice to one person, is an injustice to all. Careful you don't attain true consciousness of what's going on around here and find yourself bound & gagged.

1984 was a fictional story, but we aren't far off. Wanna take a domestic flight from EWR to ATL? Be prepared to have a complete body scan at the airport, and if you don't submit you better allow them to do a full body search or miss your plane and possibly face a fine. Wanna cash a check at a bank you don't have an account at? Be prepared to give them your fingerprint or leave empty handed. Wanna get a new job? Fuck a piss test, be prepared for them to make you submit to a credit check as well. Oh, it doesn't stop there. And it won't not so long as well don't become aware.
