Watch Me

The grass is always greener on the other side but to my surprise I was told lies. I didn’t realize until I opened my eyes. You can’t trust everybody. Some people are demons in disguise. They try to knock me down but still I rise. They try to get on my level I leave the ground and fly. See I been about mine; I watch my money sort of like a spy. Try to play me you will end up like an episode of CSI. Divas tell me Rita B don’t be so fly. Chicks try to get in the game but they not I. I come at you from a different direction; my fam don’t play you might need witness protection. No sleep, if a nigga don’t work he don’t eat. Watch your bitch coz when she see my crew she going to creep like TLC. You don’t really have to believe just watch me.

Past Participle

Life is the presence of death, but once you’re gone there is nothing left for you in the future so you live in the past. For those of us who dwell on past mistakes we become death. Time is friendly if you let it be, but don’t make it your enemy. If you go too far ahead you may become blind. Now you have become the past lost in time. It is best to take each and every breath one moment at a time. No one ever really dies; there flesh just becomes energy in our world of thought. This situation makes our future visit our past

Forever Missing You

Since you been gone I been all alone. The dreams we talked about I’m pursuing them all on my own. I try to be strong but I breakdown and cry sometimes. You were all I had. We had a little but every time you smiled at me it seems like we had a lot. Just wishing I could talk to you one more time. You gave me everything I wanted but everything doesn’t matter all I wanted was you. I never knew how blessed I was until the day I lost you. I sit searching for the reasons but everything happens in the right time and the right season. Amazing love is what we had until the lord had his final say, like he will with me one day.

Wake Up

Thank you Jesus for waking me up another day because lord knows without you I wouldn’t be able to make it, so I pray. I pray that those who hate me may motivate me. I pray that I become the light on top of a hill that cannot be hid. I pray that I become my vision because it is extraordinary. I pray that I overcome a nations thoughts because an opinion of what you think of me is not more important than my thoughts. I pray that I have no fear as I walk through the valley of the shadow of death. I know that fear comes from satan, and to be absent from the body is to be present with the lord. God told peter to watch why he prayed but he snored. So I don’t want to sleep away my dreams and aspirations. Please wake up before it’s too late we are a sleep nation. Everything was made in God’s creation. So how can you sleep on something so great, something so infinite, something so innate? So please wake up wake up. Let’s make this nightmare a beautiful dream before it’s too late.

Fate Perfectionist

Yesterday will never be like tomorrow so have no regret no sorrow. This is something you cannot see with the naked eye. This is so out of the ordinary nothing close to mundane. Some say it’s genuine and never lacking in truth. This can make you feel insane as if you are in an illusion, but you’ll never be in delusion. This makes you feel deeply rooted no longer found. This makes you take a never ending fall; so you will never hit the ground.

Caution

Do not dwell on yesterday or tomorrow; focus on today. Life is just a vapor that will soon fade away. Faith is what we have in things we do not believe exist, but this is real. Do not be afraid to pass through or try harder when you fail. This is more than a battle between the vows A E I OU and sometimes Y. This is exactly what it looks like. Shattered glass; pieces of thoughts everywhere. Have the mind of a champion. Once you are done doing something leave it unapproachable nonnegotiable. Push way pass the point of breaking. There is a very thin line between dreams and reality no mistaking.

Afraid To Succeed

There is a deep emptiness that we have in our lives. Life is not meaningful unless you take control of your own. I know what you’re thinking; what would happen if I took control. What would I do if I knew I could not fail? Some will never know. Fear is what holds so many great ones back. Being afraid is paralyzing to the soul. So I say to you everyone throughout their life has been afraid of something whether it be stage fright, the boogie man, the big bully, falling in love, death, or what others think. We are all at some point in our lives paralyzed by fear, and running on empty. Empty is being hollow; having no substance. Some live life without knowing what comes next. Others take control of what comes next. While the wealthiest invent what comes next, and the rest just sit and watch. All of these people play an intrinsic role in life; without one what would the other do.

I Lied

I lied, but I lied for a good reason. I just couldn’t stand the thought of hurting you just to think of what hurting you might do. So let me tell you this there are good lies and bad lies. But a smart person once told me when you lie you have to use another lie to cover up for that lie. It just keeps on going until no end. So I’ve lied so much I feel like a cover up. My lies are good because they stop the hurt, the confusion that I would put you through. The good reason why lie. I don’t know; yes I really know there’s no good lies and it’s a sin to lie. I lie anyway you know lying is like my high I enjoy making you happy off my lie. All because I would rather see you happy than see you cry. I’m going to tell the truth. I just lied to you so all this I said was a lie. How do you know if I’m telling the truth because I lie? How would u know to smile or cry? Please don’t believe me because I lie. So dry your eyes because all this is a lie.

Reciprocal Function

Pride please go in my pocket. Faiths come out and play. Love don’t hate. Real don’t behave fake. Peace don’t bring me war. Pleasure doesn’t bring me pain.  Being rich can’t make me poor. Struggling for something can make you grateful for nothing. Open don’t lock me out. Thought has frequency like sound, but deaf cannot make me hear. Passion doesn’t bring emotion. Thought cannot bring me vision.

The Sense of Sensation

Feeling alone with no one to call on; I am just on my own. I do not want my name carved on a tombstone; with the rest of the bones that lie in the six feet holes. Although I know nothing last forever; I want your feelings forever. I wanted you but you lost me when I exceeded your expectations. Did you perceive me as cold and lonely? You read me wrong and now you’re cold and lonely. I love you but how could I stay true when I am everybody’s one and only. My sensitive perception told me you would never be the one like smelly garbage in hot sun. Now you sit in your own pool of astonishment; looking as if you cannot think past your own thoughts of who you perceived me to be. I become conspicuous when I walk in a room. Why did you have feelings for me? Now you’re bitter with pain. I have feeling for everyone so for you I could never feel the same. So for your broken heart how could I be the blame?
