Wasted Life

Drop shots and trick shots, we admire
The gang banging swear slinging
Outcast that got in..
Someone who can shoot bullets faster than words
Who's idea of having a good time stops at
3 blunts
2 girls
And 1 hell of a night
Who needs confrontation when you have the ability to solve any problem
With the contraction of a single finger
POW, FLASH, and SKID-MARKS
Silence floods the avenue
As the man we knew
Falls pale face to concrete, right behind you
Who's gonna go next?
What statistic are you willing to live in?
When you realize your potential?
Where will you go?
So many lives to live
Why this one?
Break the circle of violence and lay a timeline to a better future
Rise out of circumstances and give your self a better angle
Put down the guns and raise your pens
Put down the gang signs and rep peace
Show love to all the unloved
And maybe they'll be hope for you yet.

Graduation

EXTRA EXTRA, Read all about it
The end is near, the end is near
2k12 is finally here
We've come so far to go even further
Its now our time, no longer are we observers
We slowly, one by one, step out of our oysters
To walk our path through a life of employers
We loved our mistakes and every time we've fallen
From ever victory from ever problem
We've put in the time
And now live to tell
We've turned our lives
And turned them well
So remember the class of 2012

Life From a New Perspective

The outfits we wear only tare down who we are
our faces are glued to the mask we made in the dark
we hide our passion, to blend in the crowd
And suffocate the soul that trying to get out
So we walk our way through this world of depression
Victims in a maze of deception
Up becomes left and right becomes wrong
When life hands us lemons, we write a sad song
We hate our chances, but remember our falls
Cut short of glory, to scared to stand tall
Poor attempts to escape the nightmares
That Laso and ranggled us into damsels of fear
With our imaginations gone wild
We conjure up the life that could of been now

The Box

I am in pursuit, of a box
That I will find later or sooner
Based on the rumor of rumors
I follow the not so yellow brick road
To pursue this beautiful box that over flowed
With ever thing I needed to make a better life
But the location of my box is a mystery
And lost in the history,
I contemplated the the victory, I'll achieve with defeat
But losing is for quitters, and winners never cheat
So I search for self-innovation
In hopes this box just might find my dedication, appealing
I've walked the walk and fell the distance
Just looking for the proof of existence
I mask my emotion but over looked subsistence
Yet still I insist.... This box is real
I searched and I searched and there she was
The box I've longed for has finally become
As real as real and as real as love
But the matter of the fact was so I thought
Yet asides the fact I took a chance
Opened the box and upon first glance
Was an I.O.U. and a tear of a virgin
I closed my eyes to my world end
But then came the glow of the prize inside
A radiant beam that pleasures my eyes
A golden puzzle piece worthy of none
But he who's created it and he who's come.
Now with that, I hold this puzzle piece
Close to my heart, and felt complete
So long I've searched to feel what I feel
Now with a kiss I ask, Do you feel real.

Walking In Faith

Life Is walking barefoot in the dark
With broken glass on the floor
You'll never know what your walking into
Until you take your first step forward
You might miss a few
But you won't dodge them all
And when you feel pain
You will discouraged
But if you live by fear
You'll never go anywhere in life
So I press forward walking, blindly in pain
But moving forward in life
And since no day is predictable
"I Walk In Faith"

I L-O-V-E Y-O-U

I am taken by the thoughts of you being mine
Leaving permanent marks on my life
Over came by the pursuit and the
Variations of time
Eternal becomes mere seconds
You are safe in my mind
Opening up, letting you in, because I trust you
Under any circumstance, I will fall back to you

Album From the Heart

I can't get her off my mind, or my heart
And second verse same as the first
Chorus Lost in my head and the hooks won't come out
Lodge so deep in my subconscious
My heart beats to the melody of our favorite song
You see..
I feel..
but heard, her voice so sweet, like an angels laluby
able to slay the savage beast ive caged inside
locked so far away but still got out
then in she came, and I found out
She could very well be
the best thing thats ever happened in my crazy life

But ive miss read the lyrics, for far too long
looking for where i went wrong
only to find love is just a sad song.. played by me
And now i have a close friend, trying to fix
how love met pain, this toxic mix
rid my mind of all these tricks
Now I cross my fingers hoping this isnt just a remix
to my heart beak album

Life Kills

If life be a mirror, then she is broken
And slit are my wrist by the shards of injustice
That tempted me into suicide of the soul
Guilty is my flesh to bare such sin
I breath pain..
Pushed off the edge of my deepest desire
I fall head first into an unforgiving grave
Where lay..
Counting my regrets as I sink into a timeless ebisk of pity
I'm a prisoner to my own cataclysms
Wasted was my life
And meaningless be death
But to spar me the torture of the present day

My Feelings Feelings

Once. Upon. A time.... The perfect beginning
And lost in my thought, my mind keeps spinning
Treads of fantasies, I hand you these
Garments of love I've made with ease
Because my feeling come naturally
But feelings within me-
Manifest themselves into words deeper than i love you
Yet the feelings within me are the reasons why i love you.
So i take why i love you
and love you
for you
and tell you whats true
that my heart starts speeding when its only us two

But we find pleasures beyond sexual contact
because when her words make contact
they hit me so right, i must contract
to the deepest regions of my imagination

where birds chirp, turtles hum, and flowers bling
and the sun shines it lovley light so the moon can bring
the stary nights, back to life, as i sing
Just how blessed she is in everything

Now I pinch myself, but im not dreaming
Hold my breath, til im not breathing
Profess my love and now I'm screaming
Creating ripples in the wind
To form the echoes that later
Will remind me of how much I love you

Jonel

Just us two, yet
Only you, and
Never me, but
Eternally, I wage in
Love
