So I write this to those who once thought we couldn’t make it without them; played with our minds and controlled the mayhem.

To them, we raise a glass of fine wine and say a silent “jokes on you”.

To they that left us to labor and toil, those who literally threw us in hot water to boil;

Those who sat on our happiness day and night and shielded our eyes from seeing the light;

Those who knew the right way but watched in excitement as we went astray;

Those who denied us opportunities, chances, prizes and sat on our royalties;

Those who denied us love, who made us feel as though we were cursed from up above;

Those who made us a laughing topic and visualized our life dreams as myopic.

We raise this glass to the bosses, who rejected us for big b**bs and fat a**es.

We raise it to all them b**ches, who ignored us for looks, books and riches; and to the n**gas who overlooked us when we fell in ditches;

As much as you caused us pain, it made us raise our game.

It took us to a new dimension of reasoning;

A different visualization of life and living it.

A new dawn of understanding, the new era under which we are standing;

The canopy, the shadow, the blessings unending;

The wining and dining; the parties and grinding;

The deals we’re ignoring and contracts we’re pending.

OH GOSH!! We’re over-booked!

Aren’t we the ones who were overlooked?

I was just a Light in august, now I’m the Lyte (Light) of Augustt

I’ve learned a lot and lost a lot. Now I lose things and never mind.

I can’t remember the last thing I lost but I’m sure it was my mind.
