Lightning N Love

A Man struck by lightning I became
Rage and fury went down the drain
Suddenly a heart made of stone started to beat again.
 Touches from heavens wouldn’t do the same 
A mysterious feeling once again
Although I have all to lose if this is a game
I adored beats by Dr Dre
But at her commands I betrayed
What mystery is this game I play?
 In which love is the name?

Walking into a battle I couldn’t fight
Said to myself this must be my last night.
Eventually made it out alive with victory at my very sight
I’m know 81 without my kite
 Always wished I would have touched the light

Finally understood joy comes in the morning
As I fight sorrows at night
Wishing I would have said this or that
Only to figure out that this was a game 
And I was at my very last lap
Saw I wasn’t any where so I used my secret art
And surprisingly I went off the chart
At the end I got the last laugh
