The Exception

I reject the rejection 
I’m about to receive 
I reflect the reflection 
Without being seen

I confuse the confusion 
Tie it up in a knot 
I’d dilute the delusion 
But Merlin I’m not

I infect the infection 
With a greater disease 
I detect the detection 
With the greatest of ease 

Disconnect my connection 
Ride it out on my own
I’ll direct my direction 
Then find my way home

Having a Moment

Enjoy the moment it’s about to end 
You know how moments can be 
Here today gone tomorrow 
I just need a moment to think 

Gimme a moment to gather my thoughts 
Or do you have a moment to give 
I really don’t need to live for the moment 
I live in the moment I’m in 

Just drift away get lost for a moment 
Get lost in a moment in time 
The moment I knew I was given the gift 
Was the moment I started to rhyme 

I got carried away for a moment 
Take a moment to take it all in 
Nah forget it the moment is over 
NO WAIT I’m having a moment again

Broken Bits

Take a piece of this lonely heart 
Dust it off for a brand new start 
I give to you the only part that bleeds 

Pump it up all full of love 
Lonely Hearts don’t get enough 
Hold on to it and give it what it needs 

So sit with me and have a few 
I bet you’re feeling lonely too 
Slip right through another lonesome day

Tell me that we’ll keep in touch 
Only so it won’t hurt as much 
When you decide to take it all away 

I think I’m better off alone 
You’d think by now I should’ve known 
I’m dishing out another dose of pain 

All busted up in broken bits 
All tangled up in loneliness 
Don’t think that I will ever be the same

When Hope Gives a Smile

Life in limbo is no place to be 
You never know which way to turn 
Separate all the good from the bad 
And store all the lessons you’ve learned 

Getting back on track is no easy task 
Compile all the losses you’ve gained 
No hope no light no luck on your side 
No response from the Lord when you prayed 

Your lost just got found your up is now down
Your confusion can drive you insane 
You’ll more or less get it all off your chest 
But you’re really not one to complain 

And every once in awhile hope gives a smile 
In the dark there’s a glimmer of light 
Then the light shines in but when it grows dim
Is when your future begins to seem bright

Pretty Poison

You’re a twelve step program 
You’re the weak amongst the strong 
Avoid the intervention 
‘Cause you know you don’t belong 

You’re one bad habit 
One that’s really hard to break 
It’s time to draw the line 
For another line to take 

You’re a bad hangover 
Snort a bushel and a pec 
It makes the hair stand up 
On the back of your neck 

You’re a dirty pin cushion 
Need a shot to ease the pain 
Can’t feel the pretty poison 
Is it taken all in vain 

You’re a proud pill popper 
You’re a bottle on a shelf 
Just fade away in memories 
As you slowly kill yourself

A Rhythmic Rant

What lay’s buried in my memory 
Is my memory sometimes lies
Bloody Mary quite contrary 
The canary quickly dies 

Now the monkey’s in the middle 
You know some monkeys don’t mean jack
Only if you meddle with a monkey 
With a monkey on your back 

You’re all set on settling changes 
And the hope that change can bring 
But if that change don’t change the outcome 
Then that change won’t change a thing 

If the proof is in the pudding 
Then I’m the pudding in the proof 
When your output starts inputting 
Is when your heart pumps out the truth

Words In My Rhyme

Let me paint you a picture 
With some colorful words 
It could make your life richer 
Though this may sound absurd 

And as you read through it’s passage 
You’ll find the message it brings 
You can decipher this message 
And hear the song that it sings 

While this poem comes together 
With the praises I preach 
I hope my rhythm turns out better 
And my message is reached 

As the lines draw to an end
It turns out all that you’ll find 
Is all these words that I said 
Are just words in my rhythm

Rearrangement

Just sit back and play me your melody 
‘Cause I’m not really sure how it goes 
Might be buying the lines that you sell to me 
So try not to bend any notes 

You keep playing but you’re not in tune 
Out of key and the pitch is all wrong 
And each verse that you ended too soon 
Can be felt by the hooks in your song 

And just like the poets before us 
You’ll have to dig deep down inside 
To come up with a beautiful chorus 
And ride the smooth flow of a rhythm 

Just bring it to life with some patience 
Make it catchy something I want to hear 
Top it off with some real nice arrangements 
And let your music make love to my ear

Back Against the Wall

I hide behind the walls that I built 
Made from failure and pride 
And sorrow 
And guilt 

Just leave your name and number 
On the back of my wall
And when I climb over
I’ll give ‘ya a call

See now’s not the time
I’m not in the right place 
I’m not in my right mind 
I can’t find the right face 

And the baggage I carry 
Won’t get off my back 
And the troubles I married 
Bring panic attacks 

See when you’re losing it all
You shut it all out 
You put up a wall
And then break it all down 

It hurts when you fall
Life can get too intense 
So I might tear down that wall 
And maybe put up a fence

Tit For Tat

An eye for an eye
A lie for a truth 
A song for a sigh 
A note for a groove 

A line for a page 
A pen for some ink 
A light for a stage 
A show for a drink 

An app for an age
A web for a site 
A chart for a gage 
A gig for a bite

A kiss for a chance 
A tongue for a taste 
A Duce for a dance 
A catch for a phrase
