It sucks to be me
so beautiful
free

That's how I make a livin
being the what you need

A buck at a time
pays my rent
makes me feel
so spent...

when the sky is blue

The angels suround me

I believe in you Lord forever
for that you are living so high above...

I wish I was a monkey
a-livin' in a tree
Where if I bit your fingers off
Nobody could blame me.

You shouldn't poke at monkeys
Unless you're a dummkopf
Who gets precisely what's deserved,
Your fingers bitten off....

 to see the light
I keep my eyes shut
to run this race
I rebuke prejudice
to eat a pie
I open my mouth
I'm a dirty sinner, just livin my life

walking free
as the breeze
bagel and cream cheese
livin it up dunkin ds style
you know ive been addicted
to coffee this whole while
but it gets me up
and wakes the breeze
as you touch my hand
and I give yours a squeeze
uplifting our hair and
your short skirt
I cant help but say something 
I'm such a flirt...

Carpenter Handy Dandy Livin With His Mommy

There's a man named Handy Dandy
Wore corduroy pajamies
His mom loved him sadly
For he was a 47 year old carpenter
He still lived with her
Still fixing every single floorboard
Handy Dandy is a good boy
A mother's joy

Money see, money do,
Money frees me and you.

Money talks, money takes,
Money pays for your mistakes.

Money found, money given,
Money helps you earn a livin.

Money saved, money spent,
Money seldom ever lent.

Money won, money lost,
Money makes you pay the cost.

Money rich, money dry,
Money matters till you die....

Living life breathing air its so hard 
to prepare... for despair. Ya die right 
then, ya die right now you can't 
avoid it where or how. Its all around 
here and now we're all surrounded
Do we ever get over it?
Ever get through the pain?
Ever wonder why we want it to rain?
Living life breathing air its so hard 
to prepare for despair...

yu r the only livin angel on earth 
n for sure none s as beauty as yu by birth 
whenever yu cross me i could feel ur pleasant breeze
which push ma heart to a sudden freeze
the way u see me with a raised bro
adds fuel to the butterflies in me to grow 
the hours i wait for yu nevr get me bored 
rather will wait for years all alone in the lonely road.......

Love is nothing but pain,
I have nothing to gain,
Life is a mystery,
NO one knows what it will be,
This is how I feel,
I'm tried of  trying to deal,
Love is hate,
You will never know ur mate,
Love is tears,
Like a thousand broken mirrors,
Love is happy,
But also sappy,
Love is a smile,
But only once in a while,
But for the most part Love is Life!...

When I roll my neck around
I hear a crunchy sound
I'm fairly sure
It's in a bunch
I'm a little tense
gotta a big ole fence
but if you want me
you'll jump it
You'll just come and get me
but
I know and you know it too
I am sooo far away
from you, makes you stay
and keeps runnin
always
lets keep this up
gives us both a reason for livin
this runnin
lustin...

It has been said that one is never to old to learn a lesson...And when you get older they get
to be more stressin..I guess that is why one should live every day like it is your last..And 
when I look back its easy to relate because time goes by so fast..They say nothing in life
is a given...That's why when you get up in the morning you should do some easy livin...js...

Bees buzzin, caterpillar crawlin
Layin in the shade

Sun shinin, babies bawlin
Listnin to the hit parade

Think I’ll get that plowin done
Need to rise and get it done.
Need to rise...

Honey suckle smellin, pine needle fallin
Feelin old before my time.

Frogs jumpin, birds callin
Livin plain to the sublime 

Think I’ll get that plowin done
Need to rise and get it done
Need to rise...

When the wine is heavy
and my thoughts are long
I like to sit in slow sunsets,
doing so makes me feel far from death,
I've seen so many beautiful things broken
heard so many hysterical hearts,
I've been a flagbearer for this Faith
ever since my youth knew how to yell,
I get so tired, so tired in this tempest
that tears the tears off my weathered face,
but I keep livin for the light
I keep talkin and movin with the light...

I will not play the role of a "VICTIM" for now i am a "SURVIVOR!"
 Its time to hold my head up high n thanx God that i am here one more day!
Livin life can be so hard, but living the life in a "VICTIM ROLE." CAN BE HARDER! 
As i look bak on life n into the old dayz, itz true on wat people say, the ones who betray
u first r ur familia. But Thanx To GOD i know who i am n who i Want too be thanx to
everyone who helped me be a better woman in life!!!...

these walls surround me from the north south east and west
for in this place my role in society is retired and put to rest
a place where your talents and skills are put aside
you will face a judge and upon him your future he will decide
it can bring you a new start or leave a terrible end
leaving you behind those walls needing that one special friend
you hope and pray for that one chance to be givin
to return to your life in the land of the livin...

Can livin in an insane place
while fighting to be sane
have anything to do with race
or is it in your brain
the curse to think you dont fit in
is truely not a curse
like i am seen as anything
while writing down this verse
perhaps its not your physical
that dictates who you are
whereas its universal pull
like planets near a star
so next time when you walk the land
and see another kind
remember, all the same, we stand
like stars up in the sky...
