(c) 1999 Bert Barrett for 2-BZ Media Yes! We got problems but what we gonna do?
We can't call the ghostbustas…We got to deal with them ourselves.
With so many problems and a culture so tired of being sick, tired, and
without, where can any hope of making a difference be applied? This
is
Check it. This is what I see… High Tension by tOObiz Ghetto…like a bomb ready to
burst…
Why I got to go through
this day to day?
Gotta help ourselves
but how? Where are the young leaders?
Wanna be happy sometimes,
wine makes it easy
Same
ol'
bull day
after day…
Much of this poetry describes the way people feel who experience street life on the daily... The themes include the following: High Tension, Anger, Frustration, Fatigue,
Indifference, Mistrust, Desire for Leadership, Desire for Happiness and
Positive Life, Desire for Family, Desire to escape (both physically and
by drugs and alcohol), Skepticism about Religion, Relief through Sex, Loneliness…How
do you convince large numbers of people with a mindset like this to keep
hope alive? Peace…tOObiz
