Health Is Wealth

You are what you eat, you are what you drink,

You are what you consume, you are what you think.

The key to longevity and living a long time,

Is being mindful of your health and not ignoring the signs.

Diabetes, cancer, strokes, and heart attacks,

Are killing us all but its more common in blacks.

See our problem is, we like everything smothered and fried,

Do you really want people to say, “eating poorly is why she died”?

Let’s not forget high blood pressure and high cholesterol,

Also, not getting enough sleep, smoking cigarettes, and drinking alcohol.

Dieting and exercising should be our top priority,

Going to the doctor regularly is a must as a minority.

Stop being negligent and take care of yourself,

Let’s teach the kids that Health Is Wealth.
