Dancing In the Rain

Dancing in the rain is
Where two hearts?meet
Kisses so sweet 
Taking away the pain 
Holding hands
We dance, we dance
Not worrying about the rain
Standing so close
Our hearts miss a beat
Dont care if its snow are sleet
Where dancing in the rain 
Watching the water fall down our faces
Twirling around not making no sounds 
Stares in each others eyes
Dont wanna let go, dont wanna say bye
Just two lovers
In love with eachother
Dancing in the rain
Let make it last 
Make memories 
in remembrance more than things long past
While we dance in the rain
Two hearts become one
Not wanting the sun to come out
Loving this feeling
Dancing in the rain

My Heart

Taken your last breath 
Life soul withers away
Like a flower dies
Also blooms revive
Once dead now alive
Thats how it is with our lives

Love one longing, wanting you to stay
But this here is just a stop off place
The Lord waits patiently 
He only knows that day

Love one wipe your eyes
Dont cry
This why jesus died

Where the lord is your love one awaits 
Watches and Waits for you one day 
standing by the pearly gate
Just keep faith, pray
Where they went is a special place

Many wonder why 
But death we cant pass by
Must stare it in the face
Like the grass
We to have to pass away

Reborn again in the spirit
Life on earth we was never meant to stay
Knowing we long to see our love ones face 

Just a smile for a little while
The fact that your no longer here
Will hold a hole in my heart
Filled with pain
But there you'll always remain
In my heart.

Fight To Survive

Ever wonder why we fight to survive 
Is it all worth it to live then die 
No given power to take a life
one minute here
then gone in a blink of an eye
Names fade away with the days
people no longer visits your grave

Ever wonder why we fight to survive 
How we tend to forget 
Why Jesus really died 
So much sin in this world 
Turn truth into lies
Hate grows stronger then love 
Barely pray to God above

Ever wonder why we fight to survive 
Everything about a dollar 
Are if you wear a blue collar 
Judge not only by your color
Many tend to forget where they been 
There's a man 
Yeah he's homeless 
People walk by stare and sigh
While he holds up a sigh
Wasting away with time
Looks for food, place to sleep are how to get a dime to feed his next high 

Ever wonder why we fight to survive 
Mother beaten by her children father 
Bruised but really on the inside 
She cries
Everyday is a battle 
She lives in here shadow 
No one cares nothing matters
Constant reminder of where you been and about your sin.

Ever wonder why we fight to survive 
Kids having kids 
Parents in jail can't even make bail 
Black men killing there brother's 
When should they be standing strong with one another.
Keep letting Satan win, keep falling deeper in sin 

Ever wonder why we fight to survive 
Everything's about power 
Wonder why God knocked down babbles tower 
Not realizing we come short of his glory 
Our mind is the devils playground 
Especially when where down 
Still wondering why we fight to survive 
Only get one chance one life 
Let's do what's right 
be a warrior 
we have to survive

I,B,L,M If Black Lives Matter

I Hear This Time AND Time Again
When Will THE Killing END
Come Together AND WIN
BUT Rather Keep Living IN SIN

IF Black Lives Matter 

WHY Keep Killing Your
OWN Color
Giving Power TO Hate
and people
SAYING Lets Make America Great
While it eats its young 
Especially our young black men
ITS Starts IN THE Home 
Where Many Parents Cant WIN
NO Respect, Lack OF Faith
While THE World Waits 
FOR OUR Kids TO Fall Deeper IN SIN

IF Black Lives Matter

WHY Keep Putting Down Each Other
ONE Acting More THEN THE Other
Having THE Means TO Help 
BUT 
Rather Talk About ONE Another

IF Black Lives Matter

Stop Talking About ALL THE Troubles
There's no story without struggle
WE ALL Make Mistakes AND may Stumble
ITS Time TO Take A Stand
Raise your hands
Black power!
When will you get Tired OF Burying Another 

If Black lives matter

Then why kids go without a father
Men
BE THE Head not THE Tail
Stop Giving Your Soul TO Hell
Are a life in jail
Already hated 
But we degrade and kill off  our 
OWN COLOR

Women GOD Created YOU TO BE Great 
A man's help mate
But yet many mother's
Left alone to defend her home 
And raising up her own 
Upon GOD, Family, AND Faith

Give Praise TO GOD
This ISN'T Just A Phase
This Life WE Live IN IS A Maze

IF Black Lives Matter

Come together and win
We need our black men
Build a strong foundation
Destroy a cursed generation
Put a end to all the killing 
Bring upon healing
It's time
When Will Someone Finish 
What Martin Luther King Started

IF Black Lives Matter!!!!!

Black Man

Black Man


Black man
Hear the earth cry
From blood shed on its land
How many must die before you take a stand
Put down that gun you hold in your hand 
When will you grown from a boy to a man
Its time you be THE MAN!
Black man
Someone's father, brother are son
Look at your mother
See her tears fall
She wonders why her son keeps ignoring God's call
Are do you wonder why your child cries
Are is the question why your seed goes without a father?
Black man!
Your descented from kings
Greater is he who dwells in thee
How long must it be
Before you take your rightful place
Already hated because of your race
When will you take a stand?
Black man
Hold up one another
Instead of killing off your brother
Once gone no coming back
To forgive is to be forgiven
Learn from your past this to shall pass
Black man!
A world who fears a strong black man
Didnt martin luther king have a dream
When will you finish what he started
Stop being the target
Black man!
Your a lion 
Roar!
Walk proud and tall
Your a protector a fighter
Wear you skin well
Be who you truly are
A BLACK MAN!

Meaning of Life

Looking around 
Darkness cousume's 
Not a sound
Why keep coming this way? 
Wondering confused
  dont feel right in this place
Asking praying lord please show the way
Been here before 
Many times 
Trying to find a way out and the meaning of life
Its not suppose to be this hard?
People wonder why many keep up there guard
They wear the Whole! Armour of the Lord
Plenty snakes they lurk and wait
People stare while gossip about you in your face
Years pass and still judge by your race
They say 
Black is just poverty for a generation 
What a disgrace
Use to be whites that was killing blacks
Now they watch 
While blacks kill blacks
Thats a fact
No not racist just this place 
A world full of hate
Wasnt born with it but taught 
Wanna run away 
Cant find a safe place
Keep calling on Jesus
Seems he doesnt hear your cries
Like he's turned the other way
The devil wants you to lose faith
But nope! Just be patient, sit here pray and wait
This life is a maze 
Some find a way out some trap in its space
Many give up and some just lose faith
Is this the meaning of life
Its a battle, a fight
Trying to live right
But seeems no matter what you do 
Not enough it gets rough
Your already down many try to keep you there
Thats when they barely come around
Are show there old face
Hate to see you blessed
But we got to keep faith
This life is only a test
As for the rest god has a plan 
For eveything done accordingly
To man done with his hand
So stand in that place 
God put you there for a reason 
Its only for a season 
pray for mercy and grace
Seeking, searching 
dont give up dont lose your mind 
This to shall pass away like time
One day youll find your way 
And know the meaning of life.

This Girl

The girl inside me yearns to get out
She yells, screams and shouts
No one notice her pain her tears
She hides
On the outside dosent show
Whats hidden inside
Once had a glow
Now no longer shows
Who cares about the girl
Alone in a big world
She hides
Knowing somethings wrong 
It has to get right
Keeping faith in God
She wanting more, more out of life
The girl is so much better then this
But at a stand still
Deep down she knows
Where theres a will theres a way
She has to put up a fight 
To get things right in her life
This girl who's strong and bold
Has to come out
Take back her strength 
Use all her might
Stop letting the devil win
Wake! Girl you've been sleep to long
Come out
No longer hiding
But fighting to get things right 
So long
This girl cant remain the same
Shes out 
Gods poet.

Taste of Sip of Wine

A taste of sip of wine
Longing for you just like fine
Wine
Drink me for the last time
Never will feel me up again
Hold me in your hand 
Standing stare and glance
Are romance 
Not bitter but sweet
Like a taste of sip of wine
Drunken off my love
Longing for my touch 
You'll miss so much
Taking in this moment 
Because it will soon be our past

Women's Passion

She wears her heart on her shoulders
Not easy to get are hold
She's strong and bold
A woman's passion
She loves hard 
So adored 
The way she walks and talks 
It's her attraction

A woman's body speaks for itself
Her hair, hips and even her lips
So satisfaction
Beauty of her it's her light
Along with her eyes 
That shines through the night 

A smile that can calm a storm and steals a man's heart
A woman's passion

Can't break her
Stands tall and fight 
Why does she care ?
Her family her home 
It's her passion

Why wonder where it comes from
Just know God is her strength
He guides and provides 
When he died for her
he showed passion

Mothers Song

A mothers song
I sang a song today
A song that will never go away
How can one take life
Given to a mother to create
A mother cries
while her child dies
watching people look and walk by
while she wonder's why

I sang a mothers song today
a song that will never go away
she works hard for little
Feeling less and stuck in the middle
raising her children
no man to provide
But God is her guide
she's a proud woman, never loud
soft word and always heard
she sang a song today
a song that will never go away

On Sunday morning
Kids better wake, no warning
shes praying and singing
kids outside swinging
yelling you have on a skirt!
Boys get out of that dirt!
Always taking care of others
even if it were for another
making sure her family better be in that church
I sang a song today
now her time has come for her to go away

Never once question
how life was unfair
and if someone cared
she just moved along with the flow
did what any mother should know,
even until end, barely could walk but full of strength
she lives life very well spent
she endure and so adored
eternal life, she shall have God's reward
The way she lived it will be ever in-stored
Shes flown away
A mothers song i sang today
