To My City

My bright yellow aurora had dimmed away into an unhealthy shade My warm yellow orca is just coming back from a purple haze People talk **** about the exterior Just looking And no feel. But I’m saving myself I’m about to go in. They think they know what u about Till you claim that south side They node in awe, with a smile on their mouths But words just don’t come out This fire is spitting like a wild dragon But from this darkness I’m about to come out and about It’s never too late to change my route And behind. The shredded past and culture of the nation’s capital This sunflower stands tall and keep that “chocolate city” title Not a fable Don’t get me wrong all flavors are enable and welcomed at the dinner table With a little go-go, comics and anime .Lol. I tell it all the time this sad sunflower will soon prevail With more of those warm Colors this **** can sell But this is for me Not you So you can say and grade it how you want to Yet my identity shows if you allow this 2-D Flower to come through Let it become bright and alive So it will glow and grow from this Cities permanent new architecture
