the Joker Effect.

i know it’s seems insensitive to talk about relationships at a time like this.

but there’s no better time to desire a partner and kids.

you run around scrambling, sacrificing for a better place.

but who makes sure you have a pillow for your head to lay?

you carry all the loads because your back is strong but who soaks the towel when yours is all rung?

besides God, there’s nothing in this world a man needs more than a good woman besides him.

she brings light when the world is getting dim.

she brings him life when the reaper brought grim.

a woman, an equal. put me on game.

a keen witty freak who offers both brains.

when i’m fighting the world, my house is at peace. i wanna long term deal, but yall wanna lease.

yall want five women all at once. i want one woman, for five hundred months.that’s forty one years, i know. i said it.

unconditional love, i don’t check your credit.

it’s the Joker Effect in live time.two months ago, a corporation saying Black lives matter would be a crime.

lemme explain (this is deeper than what i’m about to say. i’m trying to make it plain).

when you know the deal and explicitly say it, people always call you crazy. you start to doubt yourself, your vision gets hazy.

but don’t mind the kickback when what you’re saying is true. they’ll say “bruh you’re disillusioned. it’s not them… it’s you.you’re racist. crazy” instead of “i don’t get your message.”

but respond with “it’s better to walk alone, than with a crowd going in the wrong direction.

“The Joker was confident. he knew the world for what it was. he knew how to identify a bee while you wait for the buzz.

The Joker’s name is the Joker. but people didn’t laugh. he was good at what he did, remember the beginning? he perfected his craft.

yall called him extreme, a hater, a rebel.

never called him unique, never called him special.

isolated him. never asked “how did you come to this conclusion?”

he woulda said “you uproot and replant. you cant reform exploitative institutions.

a tree has leaves. they come and they go. but the tree remains, through heat and through snow.

you wanna peaceful world? is that what you want? you read what the oppressed writes, stop focusing on the font.

“Lebron has been doing it but he runs out of breath. Curry is calm but even he gets a tech. Ali stood tall but he hit the deck. Kobe was the man of steel, but he was in a wreck.

i’ll try to paint the picture and i think you will get it. i’m surgical with this sh*t, it’ll take me one minute.

remember in school, yall remember recess? we needed that time, it was just a reset.

all we needed was 10 minutes. then get back to work.

well i need recess now, because i’m going bizerk.

at a time when i need an escape, none is near.

2020 ain’t nothing changed just the numerical year.

i used social media to educate while others were talking sports.when i talk sports, others dont wanna talk about that.

i talk about Lakers salary, they wanna talk about Kaep.

i talk about rap, they wanna talk about Black.i talk about comedy. they wanna talk about facts.

i just need recess to look out the fence.i just need recess, but yall see me as Vince.
