When morning comes
Million shadows in the night
Only one could steal my heart
He dazzle in the light
But I be eager for the dark
We hadda battle, hadda fight
Now I'd rather hold him in my arms
And when I look up at the sight
Of dawn
That man still be the brightest star
I could handle this life
Of warfare & scars
As long as it adds ta
The story of us
I capture the storms we cause
Up in my mental
Cause he'll leave me
Alone again
When morning comes
Only one could steal my heart
He dazzle in the light
But I be eager for the dark
We hadda battle, hadda fight
Now I'd rather hold him in my arms
And when I look up at the sight
Of dawn
That man still be the brightest star
I could handle this life
Of warfare & scars
As long as it adds ta
The story of us
I capture the storms we cause
Up in my mental
Cause he'll leave me
Alone again
When morning comes

Ghetto soldier
Get up ghetto soldier
Don't let up, step wit focus
They'll never get to know us
They'll never have the courage to slow us
We are invincible, living on principle
We are demons mixed with hope
We are the nights that we pricked our skin
Wit dope
And smoked too many cigarettes
And held up through the heavy shit
Meddled wit our inner pieces
Just to slip through the thick city of sin
Without losing our heads, of recent
I tread through so many sedatives
Uppers, wondering if I'm better yet
Am I better yet
Tell me government
Am I...

He said
He said that he was the devil
She said she already knew,
Reached out her hand
Said I'm here to dance with you
While he dealing, stealing
Peeling faces wit a switch blade
She tryna heal him swaying at the waist
Switching pace as she serenades
He wish she hated him
He can't face it
He break when she lay wit him
She was a ray in the day
Still is to him to this day
Every day that she stay
Thought she was getting through to him
She's already fadin to grey
She wish she was capable of saving him
She brave the...

Undone
Turning it all to wrongs because we're both striving to be right
Don't let me sleep alone tonight
Realized I was in darkness all along and you've been the light
Don't flick the switch off tonight
We're both so full of bark but it's you I could never bite
Don't send me among the dogs tonight
We smoking, look at all this fog but you're my reason for even wanting sight
Don't leave me staring at the wall tonight
I'm so down for the cause, what is it that's causing all this spite
Don't put us on pause tonight
Sawed off shotgun, nah, it ain't war, I wanna...

Mind Of A Homeless Heartbroken Hard Soldier
Yo I don't want a job I want the world by the balls,
I ain't even asking for y'all to follow
I'm saying let's crack open a bottle
Get to problem solving and plotting
How to get to the top and bring the streets up too,
You act like you care bout these people too
You game then you wanna change the topic and drop it keep ya potential locked in,
My time ain't an option, my time's all I got, in the past I've had to fight for my life just to get through some difficult stuff,
You don't know
Don't tell me you know
I went from selling the blow to a whole new...

Under the wings of justice
The fleet of seasons
Silky smooth transitions
Quick as summer's picnic of rhyme over reason
Bacardi breezing
Hugged tight by the bronzed warmth of July afternoon around 2
Old rap soundtracks carrying us on a wave of flavored fading youth
And as soon as the day encases too much to say
We're bumping back road gravel at the speed of childhood memories
Turning into the next stage
Leaves change as we age
Added wisdom in the rings and wrinkles of tree trunk and fingertips
Hearty laughs fill our breath with the realization that
Fall has arrived but...

Just visiting
Isn't it beautiful, hypnotic
How the clock has no start nor stop
Each created, made piece by piece
Perfectly dropped in favor
Of allowing the mixture of strangers
To share a sense of communication
And relate to history
Because history is herstory, our story
Storing humanity artfully
One story with tons of ingredients mixing
Keeping a similar vision of the jaded picture
That catch our past in a fitted recap of gifted mishaps
To shape our masses as a whole
Not like plastic, more like gears
Shifting, meet me there, here
Equally having...

Crystal clear
Words became mistakes
And yesterday turned into everything
We gotta watch what we sayin, shit
Poison or medicine, we make the best or worse of all there is
Nothing can erase the hand made hell we put ourselves in
So I smoke up and stock up on the rocks, get hopped up
I write rhymes while he lights up the bin
He's sugar to the bitter tinge of my cinnamon
Climb new heights holding hands
I can feel our inner beasts shake within
Break this skin
Paint it with promises of through thick and thin
I can't tell what's real
From the aspects of us...

Treasures
Treasures of the terrain we sweep
Deciding what to give away, what to keep
I reap what I sew and I'm seeew dysfunctional
Life takes my wallet
Takes all of it
I row the boat
On top of it
Shop for rocks to collect
Mix match ms. Disrespect
Break my neck
Straining to be straight edge
To be the best
To breathe and rest
To save the lives of all my friends
Bed and break shit fast
Slow drips, molasses
Bitch throw fits
Shake my ass, hips
Spinach dip into the deep end
Finding my brain cells after the wrong weekend...
