Prostitution

We say prostitution is a disgrace in our  nation ,
But when the girls them taking of their clothes we quick to watch them pose.
We say they are nasty for selling their body ,
But yet in this society we are the ones  taking away their dignity .

We entertain the thought of them selling their body to make money ,
We satisfy our hunger pay and throw them in a corner.
We treat them like their a piece of trash lying on the floor waiting to be thrown out the door, 
We never take them as a wife because they say they'll remain a hoe for life .

We play with them as we like and when some can't take the pressure they end their life ,
In this society we all like to criticize but fail to realize what people go through in life .
But ofc this is from one perspective ,
These girls could of choose another objective .

Life Black and White

Life i look at it in two perspective,
I shall take  Dreams as an objective.
 as i close my eyes,
I can understand that Dreams is just another disguise.
For when i wake up and step back into reality, 
 i realize that life is not a fantasy.

Life for me it  can be a worst nightmare,
Covered with nothing but fear.
Some cannot sleep,
Because of the company they keep.
Everyday death comes knocking at their door,
Knowing exactly what for.

Some since they were born,
Was considered a torn.
Just another mistake,
That their parents had make.
After the satisfaction,
The need to get an abortion.

But sometimes it is just to late,
And that child has no choice but to meet it's fate. 
Some parents wanted to live their life,
So left their children to strive.
And I won't lie,
Some just don't have a choice but to say goodbye.

Some get themselves into prostitution,
Just to find a solution.
In this generation money,
Seems to be every man Jack priority.
In this life they believe you can't pick or chose, 
Because it's all weather you win or lose.

You see the vagrants on the street,
Begging for something to eat.
Some don't have a shelter over their head,
Wishing they just drop dead.
Some try suicide,
But didn't die.

Cheating and stealing,
Violence and crime. 
Everyday you hear a rape case, 
All over the place.
Many get kill,
Against their will.
Their family hold their heads and cry, 
Asking themselves why. 

The people in this society,
Is living in a different category.
Some live high and mighty,
Making all the money.
While others live in poverty,
Not once will they join together as a community.

There is Alot of discrimination,
In this nation.
Even if your right,
You still can't put up a fight.
Regarding the colour,
The decision they will favor.

In this life that is the negative side, 
But for the positive dreams can act as a guide.
When everything is going wrong,
Your dream can give you a reason to stay strong.
It gives the opportunity to want to make our Dreams come true,
And helps us persevere for a better life to. 

Yes some children parents walk out of them, 
Causing their children to be in problem.
But still that does not give us the opportunity,
To fall in bad company.
In my perspective,
There is always another objective.
Education is free,
So we could make a betterment of you an me 

Some people say we should follow our fate, 
But I believe that is something we can create.
Yes we have a past,
Don't let it tear you apart.
Use is as a process to gain success

I Lie

This is a moment of truth
A time to be set free 
From the thoughts that resides in me
Am tired of crying myself to sleep 
For all the secrets i had to keep 
   Turning an twisting every night 
Everyday was a fight for my life 
Pretending that am ok 
When am being broken down every day 
  Thinking suicide half of the time  
Putting on a smile 
Lying an saying am fine 
When am dying inside 
    Cuts upon risk 
Hiding the fact that i do this 
  Letting all my emotions slide 
Pushing it behind 
Although its eating me alive 
   Yes i lie not once or twice 
But so many times 
    Don't want u looking at me a type of way 
So i lie saying am okay

Cut the Pain Away

Here she goes again 
Cuting away the pain 
We see the scars inflicted in her body
Thinking she's crazy 

We quick to criticize 
Saying she's an emo in disguise 
We call her names 
Saying she's insane 

We fail to see the pain in her eyse
Fail to realize 
The reason why 
She want to die

As the days go by 
The cuts get deeper 
Marks become more server 
And death becomes near

You see her blood 
Flowing like water 
But wouldn't bother to help 
Saying she's a attention seeker 
To her Its Now or never 
For her death is better

Depression

Sitting in a corner ,
All alone,
On my own, 
Tryna get myself together,
But dam this depression  doesnt get better.

I break down an cry,
Half of the time, 
What to do with this life of mine,
Am only thinking suicide.
Somebody help me,
How could it be ,
This feeling is eating me alive.

Thinking  how far ill go,
Looking at the scars,
Cause i really dont know.
Cuts upon my risk, 
Asking myself why i do this, 
But then again,
Its a reliever to the pain.
 
The more i bleed,
The better it seem , 
Its hard to explain, 
The feeling is strange.
The deeper i go, 
Better the feeling u already know,
Cold as ice,
Am about to take my life.
 
Tryna tell myself its enough, 
But no i cant stop, 
Cuts after cuts, 
Deeper and deeper they go. 
Yes this depression gets the best of me,
Do you know what its like
To feel this way ,
Everyday of your life, 
 every second every minute every hour of your time.

Ah got so many thoughts rushing through my head, 
Listening to the critisisum loud and clear, 
Its like a record playing over and over, 
Stuck on rewine its playing again and again.

Am going crazy, 
Somebody please help me ,
Ah wanna be set free, 
From the thoughts that reside in me.

Your Special

You seem be an angel to me 
Always there in a time of need 
Never kept me in the dark 
Always been that light 
Shining through my life 
Brought me up when i was down 
Picked me up from the ground 
Dust me off 
An gained my trust 
Made me smile when i wanted to cry 
An even if the tears did fall from my eyes 
Youve always been by my side 
Never had to hide how i feel 
Cause u always gave me the closure i need 
With u i never thought about my insecurities 
You always treated me like a priority 
We started of as friends 
And i dont want it to end 
Dam who knew ill catch feelings for u 
So now youve  become my lover, boyfriend and friend, 
Your heaven sent.

Mom

As a little girl growing up 
Things havent been so easy 
You walked out when i was three 
Oh i could never forget that day you left me 

You walked in and out my life 
Leaving nothing but scars behind
You make me smile for a secound 
But at the next moment am greiving inside

Your no longer there 
Its almost like you have disappeared in thin air 
Your words i can never forget 
Getting close to u ill always regret 

You take what you want 
Take me for granted 
Leave me broken 
And go your way 

Every mothers day 
Your never here 
Every birthday your never there 
But then again from the very first day you never cared 

Mom am 17 years old
My story have never been told 
But your words will stay in my memory 
I will always remember the time you said sometime you have to do things that will make your life better

Thats was your excuse for leaving me 
So now thats my excuse 
For forgetting about you

To Be With You

Tear drops fell like rain that day, 
Listening to what he had to say. 
My heart ached,i could feel the pain,
It was more than I can take. 

It's flying through my head, 
The words he said.
The day I die, 
Please don't cry. 

Wipe your eyes, 
I'll be looking at you from the deep blue skies.
I'll be watching with a smile,
So babygirl  look up for a while.

If I have to, 
I'll become the air for you.
I'll be with you till your last breath,
So don't give up just yet. 

Everyday I look up at the sky, 
Remembering what you say. 
But daddy when I snap back to reality,
You're not here with me.

I can't help but live my life in regret,
I didn't want to say goodbye just yet. 
If I had a second chance,
I'll take back the cruel words I said.

I'll listen to every lecture,
You gave me about the future.
Instead of going out and lime,
With you I would of spent my time. 

If I knew,
You were about to leave to. 
If I had a second chance,
 I would have asked back for you, 

When I was three, 
Mommy left me.
In the neighborhood where all the parents stood, 
Mommy was not here but you've always been there. 

If I had a second chance,
I wouldn't have thrown the blame on you.
I just want you to know I don't blame you no more, 
And if I really had a second chance you're the one I would ask for.

Time To Give Up

You see am  in a relationship
Thats not making sense to me 
Trying to talk it out 
But everyday is the same old story 

Its time that i give up now 
It ent working out 
You never have time 
Always making me feel am not worth the try 

Am tired of being treated as an option 
When i should be your priority 
You see am last on your list 
So its time i give up now 

It doesnt really matter how hard i try 
It doesnt really matter what i do 
Youll always remain the same 
The same old u 

In our relationship 
You act like you dont give a shit 
It doest matter if we talk or not 
So theres no doubt i should give up now 

Even doh my heart is being torn apart 
Tears are filled in my eyes 
But i wont them flow 
I wont cry for u no more 

Its time that i say goodbye 
Its time that i give up now 
Its time that i give my heart a break 
From the pain i feel inside

Our Distance Means Nothing

Even though your a thousand miles away ,
With you my heart will forever stay .
I know your not here  physically ,
But baby your always near me .

We're far away so It seems ,
But I'll meet you in my dreams.
My love for you ,
It's pure and true .

So baby don't you worry, 
Your my one an only.
No distance can tear us apart ,
Cause you had me from the start.

I look at your pictures ,
With a smile on my face .
Cause I know it's you an me ,
We're mean to be. 

Our distance will make our love stronger, 
Make It last longer .
We're meant to be together ,
So baby we just got to hold on to each other .

And I won't let you go ,
No matter how far you are .
Cause baby you already know ,
I love you so.
