Modest Proposal
I have a couple questions and concerns
When will they learn?
Ignorance is like a germ
Blind to the facts
A race defined by the gat
Mostly democrats
Confined to beaten battered shacks
Combined with crack
They're stamped and labeled as a problem
So much critique
Still no one seeks to try and stop it!
The people who have
Concentrate on getting more
And won't even acknowledge the people starving at the door!
They proceed to ignore the poor and what they're screaming for
Not to lend out a hand
Or try to help a hungry...

Cursed With Compassion
Only 18
Lies a hate in my heart
I blame it on the bad things people say in the dark
To try and understand a pain while it break you apart
I figure if I never faced it
I wouldn't be strong
Although I keep and carry on
Still it wouldn't be long
Before they peeped the same problem of which I've been a victim
The several tears rolling down and with no one to listen
As I'm predicting that the things changed
Remains the same
Cause' even though we're finding answers
Still they can't be explained
Why I've been cursed...

Looking Out The Window
"Looking out the window there's a world of indifference, I never was quite sure what I was missing, equivocal vision, the disposition is aggrieved, and not only for me, as well as people in the streets, open up and take a peek, what you see might frighten the soul, and if you quickly turn away it might lighten the load, you might like that road, but you should know it's not the best way, strive for a change, and just don't worry what the rest say, in fact, let the rest stay just where they are, because in time you can shine ultra bright like a star, I open up the blinds and I saw the...

A Wordless Song
"If you listen you could hear a wordless song, insensible sound, but still the ubiety is strong, it's been away for long, not because I didn't want them to know, it's just the fact I couldn't grasp crafty notes from the soul, all the ambiguous codes, I try to take a look inside, awake in a dream, that's the time you're most alive, take a breath and close my eyes, I decipher the rune, the closer to enlightenment, the whiter the hue, and the brighter the mood, all I want to do is see clear, an angel came through but didn't notice me here, and I try to keep fear at a distance, a song in my...

Stranded
There's a certain heaviness on my chest
Followed by stress
They haven't seen the beacon yet
But what should I expect?
Soothing melodies can settle the soul
An isolated stroll
Sunrise
Radiant glow
An omnipresent woe
Take away the tears
A boat floated by
I wasn't standing near the piers
I've been standing here for years
Search and rescue failed to notice me twice
I blazed a fire in the night
But they can't see the light
I just might try to swim across the ocean
I've been up and down the coast
And still I don't see any...

Night
A light breeze barely brushed across my face
The wild black yonder placed my troubled thoughts away
I'm looking into space
Supple drapery enshrouding the sky
The stars are only bantam holes
Can you see what's inside?
For space is just a curtain made to hide the heavens
Science can really constrict your mind if you let it
A beautiful sight
The so rejuvenating air of the night
Replace the artificial stuff with only natural light
I have a passion for the eventides and such
Where I stay to myself
And keep my eyes on everyone
Cause you never...

Unloyal
Loyalty is an item that comes packaged with love
Fairly delicate
You'd hate to give it up
The most important part
I would need to know you're there when its hard
If you find favor in a person
Why keep things in the dark?
Asking from the start
This is common sense
Not a need to be sneaky
Please keep me close and go legit
You should know
I told you this
All that really matters
Could you stay true?
Not just to me
Your family
And everything that you do
Only then could we really be acquainted
A form of deceit...

Product Of The Poison
A product of the poison
Couldn't see
A way to get out
There's no future bright for me
No compassionate thoughts
I'm not the change I'd like to see
Several ghost from the past
Aren't allowing me to sleep
I feel like I'm stuck
Between a boulder and a building
Cause' I know I'm not living using the wisdom I've been given
I know what is right despite the path I choose to take
I can't find a way out
Despite the change I want to make
And I really do try
I look towards the better days
But I'm one in the same
Illegal...

No Room For Judgement
Who are you to judge me for my actions?
Yes I have sinned
But could you name someone who hasn't?
Make no mistakes
Your passing judgment has inflated my hate
And when I say this weight is great
I think my shoulders will break
You should take a look at Romans fourteen
I could never foresee the pain
Its still a sure thing
Wait until after night
At sunrise
See me in a different light
Criticism was my cue to shine bright
I'm just another person trying to lead a happy life
If you don't know my struggle
How could you be...
Yes I have sinned

Now It's Done
I really want to love you but I can't
You promised you would change
And I told you I would wait
But still I see the same signs and it's been a while
I see this is denial
Crooked thoughts
Empty smiles
Throw my passion on the pile
While I strike a match
The feelings are gone
I've had my share of being alone
A hyperborean soul
But now it's on cause' I focus on myself
Sat and told me you're sorry but there is really nothing left
Should I tell you how I feel?
And keep it real although you didn't
Or should I just wait and hold it in...

Lord Be With Me
Now understand
Man I know that I can change
I know I'm not perfect
I'm not afraid to call your name
A bush in burning flames
Come and speak to me
I'm lacking in strength
Forgive me for the sins I've finished and still hadn't commit
And I can think about some people and get mad really quick
All too familiar with the pain
And it's too bad to forget
But still I know it's always best to be forgiving
Although it is hard
I keep the faith in my religion
I'm blessed to be here living
Crossroads
Lord which way should I go?
The road...
Man I know that I can change
I know I'm not perfect
I'm not afraid to call your name

And I can think about some people and get mad really quick

Born To Be Free
A free spirit really knows no bounds
Swimming in the fast life
And almost drowned
But instead of sitting down
I'd become more careless than ever
I never think about the consequences
Dangerous endeavors
I'm really going through a stage
Will I change like the weather?
On a self destructive pathway to heaven
Leaven with anger
I hate to marinate in pain
I don't want to cause problems
I refuse to live in vain
And the best part about it is no one has a right to judge
Know that I'm in control although it doesn't show as much ...
