Ambition Against Poverty

Takes Ambition to overtake poverty 
You living a life with odds against you ,
stuck in the phase of being "The Life of the Party"
Now you don't know what to do,

making change is the only result,
time is ticking now you must meet fate
you shouldn't have to join a cult,
even if your dreams come late
Turn Poverty into Ambition 
Even if you have to fight for your 
rights thru a petition

Turn poverty into ambition 
show the world you're on an undeniable 
mission..

If I Suffer Defeat

If in my journey to achieve my goals 
I crumble or stumble an lose my soul,
My close acquaintances will know I gave 
it my all 
and know this was only a pitfall,
Without No father-No money- No choice-No guide 
I only act towards my voice inside
If it leads me wrong an down a dead-end
I'll learn from my mistakes an try to comprehend

Mind Your Business

It's astounding people worried about your well being 
an current situation,
But, always trying to investigate 2 find
out critique information,
rather criticize an judge you 
And don't even know half of what 
you went thru.

God is the only one who is 2 be 
judgmental,
An in the same light can still see 
your true potential 
mind your business an stop being concern 
with others 
worry about yourself an situating 
your clutters.

Into the Storm

Out in a far away destination,
We made love in the mist of 
devastation,
In the presence of passion an mayhem 
somewhere, 
someway our friendship vanished into 
thin air.

Within the core of the storm 
the rain always falls harder 
those who prevail this strain 
will learn to take their love 
farther.

The storm has passed and 
the waters have settled down 
But as long as I remember 

The Love we made "Into the Storm"

Lonely Star

Twinkle, Twinkle little star
how I wonder where you are 
up above the world so high 
the tiniest star in the sky 
you shine an glow so bright
that you outshine the moonlight 
The lonely star that sits above the 
clouds 
Waiting for you chance to 
sing out loud..
