Small Town Profiling


friends and me tonight,
stopped for walking with dark skin,
they know what's coming;
tell me not to show outrage,
eclipse of the sun will pass.

Kiss of Death From the Hair Gun

it spits out the thinnest of dead creation 
paining the one with its deadly stinging kiss   

cry out, no not me 
for i am but a colored crazy slave
with the letter of P. for poor 
and the letter of B. for the unbelieved 
but i must bear it 
just like so many who have before me 

they don't tell 
because who would believe

He Is All I Need

He is all I need
To make it in life today
Keeping me out of danger
And out of harms way

He fills me with His spirit
And covers me with His love
While watching over me
Down from Heaven above

Guides me by His Mercy
Keeps me in His Grace
Each and every day
While I run this race

No longer do I worry
For His call I'll forever heed
Because there is no doubt
That He is all i need.

I Am Somebody

You call me this you call me that
I'm weak I'm nothing as a matter of fact
I look past you and walk the other way
You can't take my pride away
You can't bring me down because I will always stick around
I'm strong you see stronger then you would ever think
You say you know me, well who am I?
Am I a fly on the wall or just passing by
I'll tell you this and you can go
I am somebody, somebody you should know

Against Me

Because of who I am
I'm forced to fight 
twice as hard as any man
 Because of my mistakes
the good within me you fail to see
you claim my light to be darkness
 You cut off my wings
in hopes to watch injured prey be eaten
hoping that there is no escape 
 Curse my name
in hopes my spirit won't soar
so my voice becomes silent
 Despite all 
you wish to see me covered in dirt
it will never happen
until you're proven wrong

The Happiest Day of My Life

The happiest day of my life
Was when Jesus entered my heart
And made His home their
From the very start

Bringing fulfillment to my life
Is what He did for me
Causing me too love 
As everyone could see

Yes He saved me
And turned my life around
Putting me on a course
The best that could be found

I'm so thankful to the Lord
For paying the ultimate price
and giving me another chance
Which was the happiest day of my life.

She Got Magic In Her Eyes

She got magic in her eyes
They took me by surprise
And I had to realize
She was not wearing a disguise

As I begin to look deep
Those eyes made me want to sleep
Instead I began to weep
Because those eyes were very sweet

Through it all I had to know
And I expected her to tell me so
About those eyes that had a glow
As she sit down putting on a show

At that moment I became wise
And finally I had to improvise
To let all know I'll tell no lies
Because she got magic in her eyes.
