de·mise
noun
1.
death or decease.
2.
termination of existence or operation: the demise of the empire
Some of you black "men" kill me. Calling yourselves kings when some of you are nothing but court jesters. Some of you are kings in training. A prince maybe. Not yet a king.
So quick to be judgmental and call women bitches, sluts, hoes, etc. but ya'll remain the main reason why black homes are broken.
Coming off like an emotional bitch. Even more so than a female. A black man is supposed to carry themselves like a king - not a princess. That's the role of your daughter until she herself becomes a queen. But some of you have walked out on your princess as well as the queen that carried her so you know nothing of which I speak. And if you have children with more than 1 woman and aren't married to any of them the women you lay with aren't the only irresponsible whores in the equation. You are too. The demise of the black king.
And ya'll are bitches b/c your father wasn't around or if he was he was good for nothing. So now you are him and the cycle continues.
You thirst to get a record deal but don't have the same thirst to be (on the path to being) the solid leader of your black family. Running to a studio but won't step foot into a library.
Standing in line for hours for a new pair of sneakers but too proud to stand in line for a job application, job interview or financial aid. The very epitome of a cooned out ape ass nigger. The demise of the black king.
You won't exercise your paternal / parental rights and take a female to court to ensure that you see your child. Instead you'll complain about the "bitch" and allow your child to grow up with another man or sometimes even a woman as their other father figure. You'll impregnate another female without making things right with your first born. The demise of the black king.
You glorify what you are not. You want to be a 'Godfather' character. 'Scarface' is one of your favorite movies. LOL Comical and sad. The demise of the black king.
You allow your fears to prevent you from building a solid, genuine bond with a queen. It's easier to walk away from things that exude a challenge. Because you're a scary ass bitch. Kings don't run away from conflict. They face and conquer them. Letting excessive pride get in the way and being stubborn is not the characteristic of a real leader. Whipping out your dick every moment to show people how big it is is not the characteristic of a leader. If your dick is that big its already visible to those of us that are paying attention. Real leaders allow a trusted few to see their weaknesses. Real leaders know when to work on their areas of weakness. Real leaders don't allow outside forces like bitter concubines or fair weather friends to infiltrate their unions with a real queen. Real kings don't allow their link between them and those that will help them face the world to be broken. The demise of the black king.
It's disappointing. Because even though a good number of you are decent, there is often still a minor residue of bitchassness left behind by your actions or in some cases inaction(s).
Grown man body, adolescent mentality. The demise of the black king.
Big dicks, big wallets, big egos. Still not a king.
If you're a Black man of a certain age and you're cool with being a prince I will not judge you, brotha. But know this - a prince is pushed out of a queen's vagina. A king is invited into one.
But that's just my opinion.
Wow what an interesting perspective!!!! I don't mind ur opinion!!!! It was a bit black male bash-ish but truths are hard harsh to hear at times... - @NitmareOnHerbSt
ReplyDeleteYou better talk that sh*t Tiff! My friend has a spoken word even every other Friday you should come share I know the crowd would appreciate it. Radiance
ReplyDeleteYou've touched a nerve and highlighted a problem plaguing our people, great, but now what Queen? How does the Black King become reinstated, how does he return to his former glory? How do we get the Prince to mature and accept his rightful position of power? Who and what stands to gain if the reposition did happen. As a Queen how are you making sure your Prince understands and becomes the King that is needed in Today's Black home? Have you taken steps to make sure your Prince understands the makeup of true "leader"? Have you yourself spit in the face of a prince or two who was trying to grow instead of offering encouragement or praise? Have you spoken to the girlfriend who is measuring the man in front of her by the Gucci belt, the bottles brought at the bar and the money roll being flashed? I agree there is a problem and was moved by your post now I want more. Didn’t feel it was bashing or offensive I thought the post was great! I’m just interested in reading how the eyes that noted the problem would actually fix the problem.
ReplyDelete@NitmareOnHerbSt - thank you for taking the time to read this fam. I knew that there would be the risk of me coming off as a basher. My father is Black and my son is Black. I am them they are me so never could I bash a Black man. I was just trying to get across my truth. I know that there are kings out here but I think that the ones that aren't quite there yet outnumber them. Thanks for your response / opinion. I appreciate you!
ReplyDeleteHi Radiance!! Thank you for reading this beautiful girl ^.^ I would more than LOVE to do that. I will hit u up on FB.
ReplyDeleteHi Anonymous -thank u for reading and commenting. I would be a hypocrite if I said I was always in the mind set that I'm in now. As everyone should be, I am a work in progress. But I do have my principles down. I am loyal and supportive and Im strong enough to let trusted ones see my weaknesses. In the past, I wasnt always aware of when I was in presence of a future king. I lived and learned and am now able to detect royalty as soon as I meet it. I am doing my best to raise my son to become the king hes destined to be. Of course, realistically as a queen I can only teach so much. My world and his are different. This is why its so frustrating to me that at the end of the day, my father is the only king that he has to look up to. I've come across and interacted with kings in training but like I said they all have exemplified bitchassness in one way or another. All that's left for me to do is ensure that I am the best woman that I can be. I cant save a gender. I can only make sure that I save my son from becoming a coon.
ReplyDeleteThat was very deep and true. Just my opinion
ReplyDeleteHi @Realasedadon, thanks for reading and sharing your thoughts, fam.
