The World Aint Mine
I love money but it will never become the death of me/
I love poetry so that must become my destiny/
I love my sight but i would trade it just so i can see/
A new vision/
Threw out the darkest night/
A poetic collision/
To help me develop a new sight/
To help me make my decision/
And over come my fear of this new hight/
To guide me threw the competition/
And become my new light/
Despite...
The fact that da world aint mine/
So I carry the vision in my mind/
just in case i go blind/
And attempt rewind/
Time and watch as the hands on the clock rotate counter clock wise/
And I watch this all behind the darkness of my brown eyes/
For those of you that cant tell that means my eyes are shut tight/
And I allow the darkest vision to become my inspiration and light/
Despite....
The fact that the world aint mine/
So I take the batteries out of my watch to try to save time/
So that I wont be late standing in heaven's line/
With several questions on my mind/
Like dear lord please tell me is this my sign/
Am i pose to release my thought in this poetic rhyme/
Is this the reason you gave me this talent to deposit a poetic hymn/
I stand with the questions build inside of me/
All I can do is wait patently/
For my turn/
Hopeful I slip and fall and that will be another lesson learned/
Maybe that is my main concern/
I sit and wonder what is my main purpose in life/
Sometimes I catch myself adjusting the lens in my glasses to try 2 develop and deliver a new sight/
Now that aint right/
Im trying to exceed to my highest level in life/
But i cant do it cuz im scared of heights/
Im in life's airport lookin for my flight/
Cuz i dont see what the purpose is/
I mean tell me if you feeling this/
Tell me If you hearing this/
I mean let me know do you think I sound ignorant/
Ignorance is bliss/
But its more noticeable then this/
Word..../
this sounds like something i never heard/
Even though its hard to believe this is my spoken word/
