I Am

i am in front of you
i am on your side
i am something
you can't see with eyes
just like a whisper
warm as a breath
strong as the thing
inside your chest
i am not many
i am only one
i follow no man
i follow the sun
an i walk alone
so they call me a loaner
i have no leash
so i have no owner
when i finally do stop
it will be my choice
they can take my mind
but not my voice
i won't change my words
for the powers that be
i am a force
the force of me

Wat Every Man On This Earth Man Can'T Admit

yes i'm a dog
yes i cheated
i'm a liar
i have secrets
couldn't tell you
there are others
cause you are
someones mother
but you deserve
to here the truth
here is it
human proof
i just agree
to get you quiet
i say i do
but i don't like it
you think i'm working
i'm really drinking
you think i'm nice
i'm really sneaky
it's not the guys
its all on me
i choose 
to do these things
i'm not perfect
i'm just a man
simple creature
understand?
but i'm working
i'm proud to say
to be better
everyday

Welcome

welcome to chaos
welcome to brillance
gimme your ears
and also your feelings
hear the anger
hear the peace
welcome the fears
welcome your beast
and together
you and i 
will tackle this love
or at least will try
with only ours words
with both of our hearts
a hunnit percent
from morning to dark
i will not leave
you will not leave
until happiness
has been reached
when it has
your free to go
an so am i
lets take it slow

Again

she comes home
steaming red
in my face
in our bed
things are said
words exchange
now shes crying
heres the pain
so i push
she pushes back
i am angry
i attack
on the ground
there she is
why am i 
doing this?
if i love her
she loves me
how come she
called police
you don't hurt
what you love
you don't bite
you don't punch
but we have
and thats sad
what was good
now is bad
so we split
you go with friends
one week later
its on again

7 Days

turn off your cell
lets go away
i put my hand 
on your face
call your job
its okay
say you need
7 days
with you man
with your friend
pack the car
for a spin
i know a place
its in the woods
tucked away
but its good
lakes and deer
birds and beer
no one else
is coming here
me and you
you and i
do you love me
don't you lie
look at me
in the face
on this couch
we embrace
then you cry
i get weak
water leak
on your cheek
now just lay
don't you speak
touch my chest
feel it beat

Colors

see love is red
like the sky is blue
and pain is real
like me and you
happiness is silver
victory is gold
joy is priceless
like a human soul
an people might give you
blackened nights
but you can use brushes
to paint your life
make it green
make it orange
draw some wings
so you can soar
the end is white
like being born
grayish clouds
an yellow horns

Chasing Rainbows

i just wanna be
i just wanna write
sit in the sun
i just want a life
i send them my work
they turn it away
no rappers allowed
thats what they say
what about expression
this is art
every word
comes from my heart
whether on paper
whether on mic
everyone sits
most people like
forget how i look
forget all the fears
close your eyes
what do you hear?
i'll never convice them
what can i do?
to touch the people
that wear the suits
