“Ronoh”

If you do this to your mother and father, your life won’t be such a bother, and your days will actually be longer; You can not buy me, and you can not take me; If you cheat on a test when no one is around, you do not have me and you don’t know me; If you seek me you will find me and once you have me I can not be taken from you; I can only be given up by my owner. What am I?
I am Honor!

“Tcepser”

Every body wants me but they can’t have me; I am earned not given; If you do this to yourself you will have self esteem and morals; How can you say you know me, and not show me towards your mother or father; If you have me, no matter where you go or what you do you can hold your head up high; If you want me you must earn me and I will stay with you until you die; If you try to show me to every one, every one should show me to you; If you do this to GOD your life line will remain true; Every body wants me but they can’t have me; What am I?
I am Respect!


“Ytlayol”

If you are me you would never stab a friend in the back; I am what a mother bear is to her cubs, while they are still whelping; You display me when you stay at a lesser paying job that gave you a start, when a higher paying job seeks you; I am what your father is to your mother if he has never cheated on her and has always been there for her; No matter how much money you try to spend on me, you’ll never really be able to buy me; I am harder to find than a winning lottery ticket that says, “I’m a winner, please try me!” Who am I?
I am Loyalty.


“Htiaf”

If you have me you shouldn’t worry; You can’t earn me and you can’t buy me, but you can trust in me and live by me; If you have me no matter how bad the situation is you know its gonna be alright; If you know me then I know you, if you’ve showed me then I’ve showed you, too; I am more than a word, I am the very essence of a belief; If you have me in CHRIST, you will have eternal life; I am impossible to see, yet if you have me, you trust me; You can’t trick me or lie to me, for I can only be if you try me; People say they have me, but when trouble comes they deny me; If you truly know me, then your prayers will surely be answered; What am I?
I am Faith!


“Strut”

This I have in GOD, my mom, but not in my country; because its been so bad to me as a race, I feel like humpty-dumpty; When I had this for my first love, she could do no wrong; now that I don’t have this for my first love, that love is gone; If you had me for some one and I am broken, you probably will never get me back; When you loose me you can’t find me, cuz I can not be found; If you know me and you have me, time nor separation can not break me down; I am so important in a relationship, that if you don’t have me you mine as well just be friends; You know who
I am.
I am Trust!


“Evol”

I hate you and I think you hate me too; You don’t play fair, you just beat me black and blue; You make my life so miserable at times that I just really wanna find you, not so I can have you, but so I can blind you; Because you are blind; You make men, women, and even dogs gravel at your knees; I know you and I don’t want you, because like I said, “You don’t play fair”; I’ve saw you make the most handsome man loose all their money, their minds, and even their hair! Why do you torment the average Joe so much like you get a kick out of despair; If I ever find you again I’m gonna hold you down and pull out your hair! Who am I, and what am I, and all that good stuff? I know you are an evil creature and I don’t like you, plus enough is enough!
Love.


“On Mo Pas Sci”

Every one who has a roof over their head and food in their pantry should have this for some one who doesn’t; I am real hard to find in the extremely rich people of the world; Big tobacco doesn’t even have me for their own children; Some times people say they have me, but only say that to make other people happy; It doesn’t take a scientist to figure it out; You either care or don’t care, and you who don’t have me, know what I’m talking about; You don’t have me if you can’t help some one who really needs you, but hurt you in the past; If you do have me you can’t stand to see some one hungry; Even if they’re not in your immediate family; Do you know what I am, do you have me?
I am Compassion!


“Regna”

I hurt people and cause them to go in to a rage, I kill people and destroy their flesh like aids; I am ready to attack and I always make mistakes when I take the time to look back; I am a great divider of friends and families, I can make a brother hate a sister and turn them in to enemies; Some people can’t control me and end up in a cell for the rest of their lives; I attack husbands, children, grandparents, and even wives; I’m so good at what I do, you better hope I never get control of you; A wise man is slow to get me; Who am I?I am Anger!


“Niap”

I am what every body fears; If you’ve lived long enough you’ve had a taste of me; I am the phone call that wakes you up in the middle of the night and says, “Excuse me mam, are you Ms Such and Such; Well there’s been and accident;” When you feel me, you instantly know there is trouble; Your heart starts beating triple time, if not double; If you have too much of me and can’t figure out how to let me go; I will weigh on your back heavily, like a truck you’re trying to tow; I break down the strongest of men so easily, that they are scared to think their mind out; I am what you feel before your depression sets in, I am also what you feel before your blessing steps in; Who am I? I am Pain!


“Lanimirc Drocer”

If you have me you have messed up more than a few times; If you know me a job is hard to find; I come when you’re out with your friends trying to have a little bit of fun, but instead you catch me a couple times and end up on the run; Some people brag on me and talk about how cool they are for knowing me; But when they grow up and get a little older they want to try and dis-own me; But I don’t work like that and that’s not how the game is played, once you have me my friend, I am surely here to stay; If you ever wanna be more than a janitor you might not wanna look my way, cuz once I get a hold of you, I’ll show you how the game is really suppose to be played; I’m the one that keeps popping up every time you think you’ve found a way; Who am I?
I am a Criminal Record.
