Pray For Me

have no sypamthy 
or pity for my actions
but pray for me 
when i'm 
falling 
in ones life there 
are many 
distractions
for me to stand here 
with a open heart for you 
i guess your prayer 
reach god!

pray for me 
when i walk in 
to them streets
not knowing what is
waiting on me 
pray for me 
that i make something 
of this talent of mine.
pray for me 
and i'll pray 
for you each time

You Me and Her

how is it 
when i'm a lone 
theres no one

green pastures 
of light 
grace my 
face 
as i lean pass 
the window

ready to love 
not yet ready to give my heart
once afraid
now fearless

i met her before you
but she didn't respond 
she saw me with you
she kind of lost her 
mind.

somehow found my 
number. which before 
i guess was hard to find
with you i'm happy 
with her. we argue all the time

i guess she didn't know 
the good man she had 
until it maid 
another women shine.

Crack -The Drug I Am

i kill your 
ambitions
i kill your 
motives 
i kill your
fantasy
i slide in between
your most 
wanted desires 
and tear em down 
like bull dozers

i bring all your 
fears closer 
and damage you 
crack i love 
your pipe 
crack i love 
your life 
crack
you feen for me 
and dream for me 
i call you 
late at nite 
after you eat 
you throw up 
cause i can't bear 
to let you gain on me
crack
rehab can shelter you
but you wills be back!

Direction

There was 
a compass rose
and a north star
when i begin my path 
neither lead me to you 

then i looked 
inside my heart
and ask my self 
where were you 

and upon the question
there was you under my eyez
what a blessing

You Tickle My Taste Buds

what scrumptious
flavor
steam floating
from the muffin
touching my nose 
like sewers from 
new york city
But one of a
Rose

my taste buds
lifts my tounge
out my mouth 
like a body builder

What color 
what texture
what a taste 
you have in my style
vanilla 
better then
chocolate
paste 

look at the smile
you bring to 
that young fella 
face.
not to sweet 
not to bitter 

just right to 
tackle my 
buds when i taste

If I Only Knew

If I only 
knew who 
I was hurtin 
when I thought 
I was hurting you

If I only knew
that my hate 
was only 
my lost

I was young stupid
and clueless
looking for 
a sign 

If I only
Knew If
I open my eyez 
I wouldn't 
had'had such 
a tough time

your time 
became my way 
of being 

If I only 
knew
how you felt about me
 
instead of wanting
you to show it
i wouldn't turn 
you corrupt 
i wouldn't be so stuck 
If I only knew

Man Up,All the Way Up Pt2

man up all the way up 

i've held other peoples burden
and not at once 
i showed signs of hurting
until there was you 
my window was open 
then some how i close curtains

alone alone 
thats what i'm deserving 
alone alone 
but some how it's love i'm serving 
been kick been stomp 
gave a cold shoulder
still when music come on my head bop
been push been pulled 
but not at all dropped 

left alone left weary 
dreams confine the space 
i fill in life 
my love is tough 
no matter how sharp is your nife
 you 
can't cut me 
but some how 

you pic my lock 
and made me feel so lovely.
when my friends in trouble 
i'm the first they call
but when i'm in trouble the lord i call 

so my only friend is 6 feet 
so you can sense that theres more then just 
a broken heart that's man up 
instead of robbing i gave 
in stead of living i saved 
and i answer my only craved 
so there for i'm more man then 
reality can ever afford. 
so Recognize the God in me.

Died While I Was Living

can't be 
justice 
with the suspect 
smiling 

can't be love 
with my heart 
still prowling 

oh 911 
did you get the 
411 
my heart was broken 
i can't walk or run

i can't talk i'm stung
haven't even touch 
you....now look at 
the drool from my tounge

i'm seeing my future 
but my present is 
threat ful 
if i don't change i'm just 
i'm just 
i'm just 
i'm just 
i'm just 
hold up i'm talented 
beautiful
able 
willing 
strong 
powerful 
determine.,.
my fears died while i was living

Ghetto Paradise

theres know palm trees
just drugs 
guns,sex,and money

ghetto paradise 
toast to good dayz 
struggle threw hard dayz

ghetto paradise 
a reality to some
a hell to others 

sewage smell 
police sirens 
influence to kill
at least 
in silence 

ghetto paradise 
ghetto paradise
