I Don'T Rap Like Rappers Or Write Like Poets

i don't write poems like poets or rap like rappers i flow boats like rowers talk what matters wasn't raised on council estates still a victim to down force weight gravity pulls seeds from trees it's a vertical growth without no treats see how poetic wordings breathe evading me in the verse and beat as i rap beneath the expectations a difference without explanations tap my toes to extrication set up camp an extra station stuck with pens and pencils this stationary cupboard ain't for me won't buckle when standing tall rising vegetation will reach the breeze above and free the highest tree you be you and i'll be me an artist of originality harvesting brutality I'll teach myself and I'll be me and if you're you and true to thee I'll see you and you'll see me we'll be our own unlike the rest and we'll be we, we'll be our best

Nick, mo- jo flow man.! This is textured, gets a message across. 'Thee' might be a bit jarring in the contemporary style, but it could just be my perception. Love your unique slotting of your style, and boldness in declaring it.
