Lyrical Assassination

Conviction so precise, I launch missiles of truth Indestructible rhymes, unbreakable and shatterproof Infiltrating your foundation and breaching your walls Collapse on your composure cause your conscience to fall I can convert your beliefs, cause philosophical treason Alter your perception like the changing of seasons Cutting down your preconceptions, my tongues a two edge blade speak to your peace and send it into a rage. Unearthing your terrors; exposing all that you’re fearing a psychological apocalypse, prepare,the end is nearing Sending your thoughts into a frenzy with waves of confliction I can drown you in the depths of my intentions, I boldly walk the lines between chaos and sanity Annihilate your arrogance and, erase your vanity My thoughts ascend and evaporate into the atmosphere Cause the universe to cry upon you with blood stained tears Blurring your vision, like a blinding light I can deafen your hearing, and deaden your sight Rattling your rational like the clashing of clouds Awaken your silence and make it scream out loud Contradicting your theories I cause you certainty to shake trembing your imagination, like a cerebral earthquake Violating your intelligence, mental penetration executing your expressions with lyrical assassination Chiquita Baity

Chiquita, what an excellent expression on the power of words. Emotional and mental assassination can be far more devastating to someone, but I suspect you meant assassination as in changing someones mind about an issue. This poem captures that power perfectly, love it!

This would do well in our Slam Circuit. We are presently touring. Jump on the bus girl! Flow is tight. I am listening to Old Outkast right now on Rhapsody. Do you listen to any Atlanta hip hop? If you do and you have never listened to Outkast ATliens...do yourself a favor and GET THAT ALBUM NOW! It came out in '96, but is a TRUE CLASSIC for performance art! You have talent. Can you perform? sorry. I just don't see much of this style on the Soup. SO , this is why I ask all the Questions...

Okay, Okay; you destroy all my beliefs, then what? What's to replace them? I don't want to let go until I know. But you write powerfully well.
