No Choice, No Voice
Try to speak for those who don’t have a choice
the forgotten children we’ll provide with a voice
wonder why we always talk about them girls & boys
told you once, they’re pearls, but don’t make noise
they don’t make headlines, yet they walk with poise
regardless of your birthplace, you deserve to rejoice
innocent from birth, but the burden broke his back
life wasn’t fair-no one was there- so he lost track
still no one care- he never knew his mom or his dad
could no longer bear, so he sought comfort in crack
so sad, but a reality, from...

Victory Day
Today- this day in May- we are going to celebrate
therefore these lines to the true heroes I dedicate
those who fought & died & gave their life- to liberate
those are the ones we all remember & commemorate
men & women, you saved the world, didn’t hesitate
you were thrown into war, no time to premeditate
bless the honorable & great, victory is your fate
yet some still question your cause and speculate
not knowing that the truth you cannot renovate
a good heart will weep & relate, while haters hate
downplay your sacrifice,...

The Have Nots
These lines are dedicated to all the have nots
broke as fuck, but you have your words & guts
amazed, sit back and watch the world go nuts
from refugee camps to the streets of Boston
to everyone out there struggling and hustlin’
I don’t judge, cuz you didn’t have an option
lack of love & wealth, yet you are still awesome
see it in your eyes, this lifestyle causes exhaustion
with the guilt of an orphan, you move with caution
because modern times justice is out of proportion
guess life is like an election, so full of corruption
tell the...

Voiceless
Live with the illusion that you have a choice
if that’s the case, explain it to the girls & boys
the illusion that everyone has rights and a voice
right, well how come victims of war don’t make noise
indifferent, so you claim ‘a poor heart never rejoice’
the truth is, man doesn’t see beyond his own nose
guess it goes- for all of us- thus, where to put trust
some would say the strong is the one who can adjust
I’d say, get your path straight before returning to dust
shine, don’t share sadness in solidarity, it’s all fine
never lose sight,...

Food For Thought
You see, we don’t have to agree politically
in fact, feel free to disagree with me
because we should do this for humanity
dying in war and poverty- is not a destiny
it’s a consequence- of a nation on remedy
for stress- don’t trust the press, an enemy
except for the true few, who report reality
who don’t hide behind a rotten morality
trying to downplay mass murder, pure insanity
history is cruel and brutal, but still a beauty
yet nothing like a glamorized Hollywood movie
truly, pleasure and pain are part of the plot
and it doesn’t...

Live and Learn
Youngsters, boys & girls, grow up with no guidance
live and learn that there is nowhere to put reliance
don’t trust the alliance, so many kids suffer in silence
misunderstood and judged, so they resort to violence
basic psychology, don’t be surprised it ain’t science
kid always be righteous, even when pain seems timeless
that’s my advice, cuz there is no success without sacrifice
strive to be the best, but be ready to pay the price
even when you stumble and fall, remember to rise
remember this world ain’t nothing like paradise
so just...

Walk Through the Night
He walks through the night, alone, with no light
so quiet, heading home, storm & thunder in sight
in his own zone, his soul is like a cyclone, flee or fight
step by step climbing the stepping stone, wrong or right
caught in a web, no lying, feel a fiend filled with fright
look at the skies, and wonder why shit is so tight
why problems don’t disappear when out of sight
a solitary soul seek comfort in sin, start to recite
take a pen and- write- with capital letters; GOODNIGHT
Dear Self, what happened, it is so sad and strange
we used to...

A Friend Once Told Me
A friend once told me, the ideals been raped
like an artist whose mouth has been taped
tempt you with lies and stories of a free state
great, but are you sure you can carry the weight
when you realize you can’t really hate your own fate
but the legacy you leave behind is for you to shape
now if you relate, you’ll know that truth is his trait
life is like a painting, and you got the pen so paint
the pencil portrays pleasure & pain, don’t live in vain
no false claim, never said he was a saint, he ain’t
choose, tears of a sinner or arrogance...

History
Kingdoms will shine and decline, like a beautiful flower
and history is a narrative told by the ones in power
a mystery, until you realize that knowledge empower
victory or misery, poets prepare for the final hour
twisted like the idea of a Tarot Card Tower
once they smell success they turn evil & greedy
I respect brothers feeding the poor and needy
not the ones sacrificing their own people for TV
won the war, yet your boy came home an amputee
so now what, ignorantly put your trust in society
sorry to say, but they already forgot...

Wouldn't Judge You
The true story is hidden in between the lines
like, paint poetry with paper & pen in rhymes
hear the dead sea screaming for the lost lives
couldn’t rise, couldn’t swim in the sea of lies
you see, success befalls only him who tries
seduced by the snake in disguise, so he drowned
another one down, so will you burn the town
or bow down to the crown, wouldn’t judge you
shot in the back, caught on camera, gotcha
eye for an eye is fair, but a blind world ain’t logic
killing in cold blood is bad, pure demonic
long ago the prophecy predicted...

Last Year
Last year we broke the record, never seen so many dead
this year is no exception, although it remains unsaid
remember, injustice doesn’t sleep when you go to bed
modern days mass murder & misery is so widespread
fools preach, but they misread, see through you like infrared
yet we keep puttin’ power in the hands of the knucklehead
don’t forget how brothers are supposed to break bread
instead, serve an empty plate, greed grew outta self-hate
ain’t paranoid, yet trust the warning and fear the threat
we lost too many this year, a couple myself...

Thoughts
Don’t dare of it to dream, got the craving of a fiend
find & follow the Deen, cuz life is not what it seem
one says the path is dirty, another one that it is clean
I mean, we see right and wrong, but who is to deem
sometimes the world behaves like a hysterical teen
come clean, we are all part and parcel of the scheme
you find what you look for, so look for truth not treason
don’t trust eyes, ears or tongues, but trust reason
wonder why we treat each other like it was open season
lost perspective, it’s hot & hectic, yet cold & freezin’ ...
