"The truth is the sweetest pain until you're the one who has to hear it." - DeeTooCold
Re. The Heartbreak: Part 3 (Song)
Verse #1:
I'm sorry I lied to you
Never thought I'd cry for you
Told so many lies to you
For the pain I took you through
Never thought I was hurting you
I was ignoring your feelings
I strayed away from you
And now I've painted this image
Of the unthinkable
And at some point of our lives
We were unbreakable
Now at this point of my life
I feel so replaceable
But now the distance has made us
So unavailable
There was a time when I thought
I was irreplaceable
But the more I cheat
The more I pushed...
I'm sorry I lied to you
Never thought I'd cry for you
Told so many lies to you
For the pain I took you through
Never thought I was hurting you
I was ignoring your feelings
I strayed away from you
And now I've painted this image
Of the unthinkable
And at some point of our lives
We were unbreakable
Now at this point of my life
I feel so replaceable
But now the distance has made us
So unavailable
There was a time when I thought
I was irreplaceable
But the more I cheat
The more I pushed...

Where I'm From (feat. Movie Malik)
Verse:
The innocence die young where I'm from
So many people toting guns where I'm from
Dysfunction is in the open where I'm from
Our struggle goes unnoticed where I'm from
See nowadays you have to protect your energy
If you want to avoid being a casualty
You gotta sit and meditate your mind casually
Every day I'm from there's a catastrophe
I keep this piece of mine
Just to have a peace of mind
And just in case somebody
Wants to take a piece of mine
They shorten their lifespan over lifestyles
Just to flex for a short...

Land of the Lost
Verse:
It's no doubt I'm a menace to white supremacy
So many suidical thoughts have gotten into me
My people still trapped in mental slavery
The cops still torment us on the daily
Sadly miseducated and gentrified
Watching us small fries get deep fried
Seeing us being killed is traumatizing
The pain of reality has me terrified
People dying, from bullets flying
Painful tears, from mothers crying
The aftereffects got us divided
It's common that my people are too afraid of logic
I know my worth because my blood royal
And the...

The Heartbreak: Part 2
Every now and then
Or sometimes and again
I still tend to feel cold
From what you did, a long time ago
The pain still shows
But I keep it concealed, so no one knows
Never thought I'd be traveling down the road
Of the pain that has left me scorned
I thought you was mine forever
I thought we would shine together
I thought we could grind together
For worse or better, overcoming the battle
Organizing our lives together
Being able to travel when or wherever with you
I feel so salty like a pretzel
That I let...

The Heartbreak
This is... to my ex
If you're listening
This is... my message
And I hope you get this
It's too late to atone for the past
But expressing my past feelings should make sense
And it's tough because reminiscing about our broken bond
Gets me wrapped up in my feelings
So that makes it harder to solve
The problems that needed to be finished
I'm sorry to have been the one
To cause you the painful heartbreak
That you never even expected
I'm sorry to have been the one
To make you feel this type of pain
And left you...

Sick and Tired
I'm so sick and tired
I'm so really sick and tired
Of being sick and tired
To the point it's exhausting
I'm sick and tired of the struggle
But way too afraid of change
Sick and tired of the usual
But too afraid to step outside of my range
Sick and tired of being single
But too broken to let myself be loved
Sick and tired of the hate and criticism
Yet too angry and prideful to rise above it
Sick and tired of you accusing me
Because you're too insecure to let it go
Sick and...

At The End Of The Night
I know we've been busy
But it's been a while since I've laid eyes on you
It's been a while since I had some time with you
But tonight, we get to show each other what our minds can do
Along with the actions of our body language
Releasing each other burdens of our sexual anguishes
So baby, let's get busy
Because at the end of the night
The moments we've shared will be meaningful
As the good sex we have will be enjoyable
Seeing you cream in satisfaction has me so joyful

The Hunger for More (Part 2)
I'm hungry for more
My hunger wants more
I have dreams to do better things
Seeing myself in a house by the shores
Seeing myself being financially secure
Knowing that I have chances to see the unseen
Chances to experience the unknown
The things that were never shown
To me before
The average hard knock life can be a bore
Danger is lurking for innocence at the corner store
Where shots can be fired at any given moment
Bullets flying, people dying
Parents and children crying
As they see their loved ones lie on the pavement...

Yesterday [Part 4]
This week hasn't been easy for me
Today was really the hardest day for me
As it has for the rest of the family
When we watched them lay you to rest
To keep myself from going insane
I wrote my thoughts away to cope with the pain
But never thought I'd be writing this now that you're in the afterlife
I'm thankful for all of your love, teachings, and sacrifice
It was very difficult to say goodbye
With the family grieving as we wonder why
But you had the bravery to put up a good fight
With the strength of a mustard seed
You still...

Pain
Know pain
Feel pain
And I don’t mean physical pain
I mean that emotional pain
That causes mental agony
You know that emotional pain
That makes it hard for the mind to fathom things
That very same emotional pain
That makes it difficult to overcome the mind games
That very same pain
That drives one almost insane
Yes I know pain
Yes I felt pain
Pain is darker than any shade
Cuts a lot deeper than any blade
Becomes harder to fade
What I wouldn’t give for an even trade
I never gave in or fell under ...

Cry Of A Rebel
Can you hear my cry?
Do you feel my pain?
Will this touch your soul?
Can you heal this strain?
Will this ever make you wonder?
Will things ever change?
These thoughts forever burn in my brain
These thoughts forever cause my mind to strain
Sometime it’s hard to really refrain
From the problems that causes me disdain
No one knows how the pain of being black goes
The grievance from my people dying hurts my fractured soul
Seeing us being slaughtered constantly does damage to my psyche
White supremacists will never...

Soul Food
Girl you got that soul food
That food that is good for spiritual healing
That good food that has me all in my feelings
Food that nourishes the mind
And make all of my negative thoughts disappear
I thank the most high and ancestors
Because they brought you here.. To me..
You definitely have some good soul food
But I'm not talking about the food we eat every Sunday
Even though you're cornbread fed
Standing 5'5 caramel with some of the most sexiest legs
I'm traumatized by your hazel brown eyes
And even more dazed by the thickness...
