The Streets

Me and the streets... what more can I say
it's a mutual love and hate.
It's a mutual love because we don't like the jakes
but it's hate because... I'm positive and he's negative
I'm a felon wit a record, but because
I know the truth now, believe and I'm fighting for it
he wants me in the air like Jordan
you see I know he's poison
and true I tasted the venom
but seeing is believing and like 
he's out to get me, I got it out for him
he knows where I came from, knows where I been
and all for the love of money he's claimed the lives of many
and knowing that I used to work for him
is already saying plenty, and look at me
now all them niggas that ran wit me 
is still out there so one things for sure... 
spiritually we're enemies 
but as far as them friends of mine
maybe they will but chances are they won't ride wit me
because... as long as the negative influence is out there
the ones who are lost will forever live in despair,
sad part about it who really cares

Ready For Love

Everybody's been threw it
bad relationships, make ups and break ups
but I been dreaming long enough 
I finally had to wake up
I'm ready for that everlasting love
that God promised me since birth
to live is to suffer especially when you
been threw years of emotional hurt.

I'm ready to dedicate myself to that special woman
back rubs, massages, to them candle lit dinners
slow jams, holding hands, wedding bands
this here is real talk & I'm a grown man
I'm one man & all I need is one special lady
someone I can introduce to my mom 
and my homeboys and say yeah thats my baby.

I'm ready for love & when she finds me
I hope she's ready for me
I been in bondage long enough
look into my eyes, I'm waiting 
for that special woman to set me free
I know love ain't easy but trust & believe
I'm tired of being lonely 
I'm patiently waiting to meet my
soul mate so we can live in holy matrimony

Trial & Error

Mistakes are apart of life, it's a given, that's the beauty of it. In an instance pain & turmoil 
can hover over you like a black cloud, the past is the past it's all about the right now. I'm 
livin off experience and in these days positive communication people ain't really listening to 
they don't make men & women like they used to love ain't what it used to be, trial & error is 
one step closer to being free unconditional love is needed so before I settle for less and 
compromise my faith i save face keep it moving and keep them platonic friends, yet I still 
await my woman to arrive so heaven sent, what's taken her so long to find me is she really 
that hesitant nevermind that I just continue to eat my daily bread yeah spiritual leavening in 
the essence I never fell off thart bike I'm still peddling, my God is able to do exceedingly so I 
wear my heart on my sleeve for the hell of it life ain't nothin but a highly anticipated 
suspense movie but the black guy doesn't die in this one. This ain't a fairy tale but I then 
seen some re-runs yeah I hear evil but check it I don't see none still I await my queen's 
arrival patiently all in due season
