A Secret.......Mom Can'T Except

I had a secret bound to let go
I was scared to tell so no one ahd to know
I was afraid everyone would consider me their foe
But the other day i was ready, and i let it go

Everyone Understood,except my mother
I thought she would understand like no other

I'm Glad people know the real me
Cuz the box is open and i am free

Who cares if i like both sexes
I won't recieve the death penalty and be sent to texas
Im a still go on and be able to but my lexus

My life is sett to be blocked along the wasy
Even if its mom, i'll stand tall and make it someday

But if she can't except me, many will
Cuz she taught this man how to take it cuz life is real

Thug Mentality

I used to live a life with out drugs and crime 
Now I’m sitting in a jail cell doing my time

You look at me and all you see is a thug
Yeah, I’m doing time and I look like a dirty rug

I miss the outside world and my family 
Yeah, my mind is stupid, because I have “Thug Mentality”
I wish I chose the right path, and fleed 
To begin a new life called I’ll succeed 

People told me the thug world wasn’t real 
I ain’t listen because I ran the streets and made the deal 
When I could have been in church ready for gods heal

But I believed once I start its hard to quit

Now Imma get out of here and start a new life 
Wait! That’s what they all say  
But I’m for real 
Why?

My moms is home thinking about me 
Knowing she raised me better than my ways be
I know she’s saying it’s her fault 
But really it ain’t, I am the one who got caught 

So from now on, I am a changed man
I’m ready…well…I understand
Why all those people tried to give me a hand 

For all those out there who think the thug life is for you THINK!
Leave it alone before you hit the stage of “Thug mentality”
And RECIVE A PLEA! SERVE A SENTENCE! AND MISS OUT ON THE REST OF LIFE!

He Does'Nt Care

As he walks down the street, people make wierd faces
Is it because of his Bright Rainbow shoe laces
Or Cuz he's a wealthy black man with the average of four aces
Maybe it's because he's gay and embraces he's going places
It might just be because his clothes are tight
But despite what you think he's polite, alright and very bright
He doesn't care about your facial expressions
But he wants you to know he has one confession 
Yes he's black, wealthy and excepts his profession 
But
HE DOESN'T CARE

Don'T You Hate....

Don't You Wonder why people Hate 
Don't you wonder what's your fate
Isn't it annoying to sit around and wait 
For something to come on time not late

Don't You hate being misunderstood
I know you wish life was better than the hood

Don't you wish you knew who to trust
Someone that's around forever and can't rust

Sometimes you believe that times are hard cuz people and things just bombard
When something bad happens you feel scared
But someone always sends their best regards

Don't you hate that feeling of life being a joke?
You blame yourself because your never awake 
But you need to wake up before you begin to soak

Don't you hate loosing someone close
And cryin a puddle bigger than the east coast 
Well there's something you can do about all this hate 

STOP THINKING ABOUT THE PAST AND LOOK FORWARD FOR THE FUTURE

My! Boo Aka Shameema Scott Part Ii

My bestfriends name is Shakeema scott
A friend, a sister I love alot
I have known her for eleven years 
When one was sad we both shed tears
Our friendship is very strong
That's how i know we're meant to belong
There's nobody out here that can take her place
That's why I'll never make her mad or put her waste
We were always together In grammar school
Back in those days we acted a fool
In 2002 after graduation
It was hard to leave because of too much devastation
I'll always need her to be there for me
She opens my heart and sets it free
Keema darling I love you
That's why your my boo
Just remember I'll be there for you.

Broken Heart

You Asked Me to trust you 
And now girl i'm through
I want you out your no longer my boo
Your not made for somone like me 
Just walk out, but before that return my key
Girl you broke my heart 
Now your sorry cuz we're apart
You stabbed me in the back 
With rumors sharper than a dart
I was a good man 
I held you my hand 
I hope you now understand 
I want nothing to do with you anymore 
I don't think your somone I adore
I have respect for girls but your acting like whore
Girl the kids are staying here
I know this is your fear
Now remember MY NAME is FLIP
Girl with out me your no longer HIP

My Best Friend Part 1

DEDICATED TO SHAKEEMA SCOTT
My bestfriend is the best 
Eventhough sometimes she is a pest
I've known her since the first grade
I was there with her when she was afraid
We love each other dearly
That's why I understand her clearly
She loves music,i love art
That's why we're together and never apart
We both are lazy 
And when we're together we are crazy
Love is the key to each other's heart 
We can even take thing's sharper than a dart
I love her through thick and thin
At sometimes she makes me forget where iv'e been (best friend 4 eva)

The Day You Left

THE DAY YOU LEFT
You left this world the Sixteenth of june
Why did you have to go so soon? 
I know your in a better place
Up so high full of grace 
It was hard to let you go
The day of your funeral your face had a glow
It was you telling me I'll be okay 
I'll be right next to you everyday
You left me so quick I didn't get to say goodbye
I't doesn't matter because of you I'll always see eye to eye 
No matter where you are i'll always remember the day you left
It's a memory to cherish even after death
(I LOVE YOU)

Reminisce

We have been through so much 
It doesn't feel right with out your soft touch

It's like i'm dead now that your gone 
I think about you everyday from dust to dawn 

We were together for a while 
With you around I always went the extra mile

Only if you would come back 
We could be together like a phone and a jack

In my mind there is no use of thinking this 
Cuz all i do is sit around and REMINISCE

So i'll do my self a favor and try to stop thinking
Cuz if not my heart will start sinking

What Is a Man?

I am a man 
I have confidence
I have a life
I have two feet and two hands 
I am a man

I walk with my head held high
Not caring so much about a woman thigh
I punch with the lord at my fist to make sure that I miss
I am a man 

I take care of the family I have 
I am a man 
I treat my spouse the same 
I don’t play games
I am a man

I do things at my best
I try not to be a pest
I wish for a better world 
One that’s not ready to be curled 
I am a man 

I write with pride
And always ride the tide
Because if I don’t I’ll always be on the side 
And I don’t want to take that ride
Because I am a man 

I have feelings that hurt a lot
That I can’t express so I let them rot
Men cry to let it go 
Hoping to get rid of its foe
Why?
Because I am a man 

If I didn’t cry or let it go would I be a man?
If I didn’t dream or have a wish I wouldn’t be a man 

But because we all do these things we are men 
So believe in men because I am a man and you now know “what is a man?”
