Sometimes things really are as beautiful as they seem. What grows on the inside will eventually spread to the outer body for everyone to see. I know for myself that when the most high is in control there is no way people can deny that spirit. Not only are we suppose to be praying and relying on the King to make and keep us whole, we have to be an example for others as well. A kingdom is only as productive and powerful as its weakest link. As I write this to “Be Strong” on repeat I realize I am so blessed just to have her a a sister. The art we share as a people is only the beginning to a substantial relationship for the years to come.
As a spoken word artist I’ve wrestled with creativity and performance. I’ve competed in slam competitions just for the hell of it only to become more discouraged than inspired. That plus school and everyday life dealings, its quite easy to let goof something. Some of those times it was poetry.
How dare I?
The only thing that gives me life how could I ever consider letting it go? But even when I tried, words never left me. I still found myself putting things together in poetic forms and eventually began writing poems in my head without paper. I’m up to three complete peaces which have never seen paper and working on my fourth one.
My battles always seem to be spiritual. I’m always on the move helping people around me, volunteering for different events just to ultimately lose myself. I’ll admit I’m confusing. I’m learning that most of it is all in my head and once I speak life all my worries fade away. Kay Nova’s “Defy” feels like a whispering angel harmonizing with my conscience telling me to do better. Be better. Feel better. Life will do its part to be an emotional drain but it is up to us to use the power He has equipped us with and be powerful. CAST OUT THEM DEMONS!!
Music brings so much peace. That peace becomes more vibrant and unavoidable when the right spirit is endowed within the artist. “Wake Up” has been the sentiment for the last six months. My partner in crime Chantel Massey and I together form the group WakeUp as a poetry movement in Crown Hill. In an effort to renew the City from being “NapTown” we figured it was time to do our part in revitalizing that energy. The Word says, “when two or three are gathered in my name I will be present.” This song means so much more to me because it is EXACTLY what we as WakeUp are implementing. Its time to move. Your mission is as powerful and concise as the people you’re surrounded by. This work is of the most high. I can feel it. Everyone in my circle are taking hold of their dreams and living it the best way they know how.
