the way whitney died

in the interest of integrity
i gotta say
i just never ever really dug
the kinda music whitney houston made
i always thought she wz a white girl
the whole time she wz on the radio
& when i finally saw her
on video hits / she kinda seemed to be
behaving like one / anyway
another broken black one of us / who
who wz born / lived / & died
for their godforsaken stage
bt for all that they loved her
the way whitney died / i mean
shit / she might just as well
have been billie holiday
