The Dark Side of Poetry
Love-A-Lot
I have me a heroine
came in my life to save the day
she gets me high
up, up in the sky
i'm the extraterrestrial
she's the flying saucer
taking me anywhere I want to go
has me believing anything is possible
thank God that I got such a phenomenon
time at times feels like a knife
slowly pushing into my side
trying to build us a kingdom now
on planet Love a Lot
not by any means an easy feet
but I want to be able to look back
say we lived the fairy tale life
and once my light burns out
wish...

Fake Homie Diss Track
I had love for ya ya ya
but now you turned it all around
I've seen how your mood shifted
listened to too much gossip
shitty towards me
because your new lady doesn't like me
ain't she a bit old for you anyway?
hey, I'm not judging
just feel you're too busy
trying to get in granny panties
that you're starting to lose your senses
never said anything but praise
untill I've seen how you've been acting lately
talking foolishness about my ethics
jealousies a bitch l suppose
funny thing is if you would just say it to my face ...

Just Us
oh baby
tell me how to be a better person
I just want peace
but snakes constantly surround me
and I know that my pain is hurting you
just like yours keeps hurting me
wish we could lay up on the beach
a happy home no one knows
just the two of us
never any fights, never no fuss
still I have to wake up to expectations
from people I couldn't even careless for
guess truth be told
I don't mean to let anyone down
it's in my nature to thrive
but when I give more than I get
makes me wonder how I got...

Who Gives a f**k?
what is keeping me from greatness?
it's the corporation
if I could turn back time
I would tell my younger self
don't fall into that trap
but I did and now I'm filled with regret
just call me Kunta Kinte
they say don't get mad
well somebody should be!
yeah my skin opens me up to their abuse
think they won't hear a peep out of me
but I'm no Toby
gearing to flip off the corrupt system
played along because I needed them
and the money
and the insurance
thought they had my back
untill they started whipping it ...

Close Encounters of the Sexual Kind
Y’n cho rucg eh ni ckosyuoc… Coulseot geh hymja u nugo geh fork no lokekarugo.”
listen when I say we are not alone
my friends say I'm crazy
but what do they know?
my story starts with me frightened
tormented, and hyperventilating
yes, I seen one with my own two eyes
landing like a meteor in the dead of night
walking out her space craft with class
reminding me of an 80s music video
using her body to make contact with mine
felt overwhelmed when she touched me
everything I was thinking quickly dissipated

... at least we have it in poetry (Collab with InDreamz)
The evening sky was splattered
with soft strokes of pastel hues
when my eyes fell on your poetic spill
flowing across the
luminescent screen,
carrying me along with their whispers
of desire and yearning
mesmerising metaphors, exotic imageries
caught me in your quill
With each verse I descended deeper
and deeper
into your being
Set in a trance like the whirling dervishes
losing myself was all I wanted
in the ever spinning vortex of your ink
I just knew those words
were meant for me
and that
I was born for...

The Ones Who Hurt the Most Know it's the Ones You Love You Hurt the Most
since I was born I've always been a fighter
hard rock formed around my heart
when people attacked with hateful words
it just made me more vicious
knowing I could hit them with spite like knives
and I couldn't careless what they thought
except when it came to you
held you close too many times
kissed you hard so many ways
history so lovely
that it brought me to this point
where now you're saying painful rhetoric
and I return fire with no care of what I'm breaking
wish I knew what you really were saying
knowing that anger is...

Mighty Fall
I crawled my way to the top
seen all I could see as I went up
thought it would reveal some wondrous glory
what I got was others trying to knock me off
like there's only room for one
phonies smiling to my face
pretending we're in this together
as they wielded knives behind their backs
became wiser the older I got
know well now who to trust
except I don't really want to play anymore
I don't need no crown on top of my head
or great trophy of accomplishment
the view is mighty fine from these hights
wondering why I...

Richest Man in the World
every person has their goals
success of the heart is mine
money is just a means to an end
gains nothing more than material things
sure, it all sounds very nice
that is something
but it’s not everything
not knowledge, or humanity
definitely not love
though my bones may ache
working in pain for the next pay day
bills racking up high
sometimes overwhelmingly so
I try to remember I have a partner
one who helps me as much as I help her
it’s her calming hug
blanketing...
