Parallel Attractions
How do I say it when my heart loses more blood over
every word I say?
You stabbed it with your pen and made holes,
Then you put it on paper dipping from my bleeding nose,
Tracing your anger with my blood,
Writing poetry about our chemistry
And the things we did in the pantry,
...seriously?
Is that what you do when you mad at me?
My breath is in the back of the back of your rack
I breathe there daily and say "I love you"
But your chats and stats are just more of a false fact coz
we fail to stay intact
In fact my soul is ailed...

Definitions Remained, But Meanings Are Buried
Murder murder murder....Dead
Murder killed by niggas who made killing a tradition.
Who spill street blood like spring showers,
Slicing young bloods like daily bread
And sipping their blood like comunion wine,
They call it life but we call it crime.
Call upon crime to stop crime
But crime already died, commited suicide because the law itself never took it to head.
You open a case but dockets get thrown away,
How is it fair to citizens when the law uses bias?
Criminals barely taken to prison.
Women are victims to violence and...

Just Let Me
I wanna be there...let me
When your heart doesnt wanna listen to anyone else,
I want my silence to sing to it and embrace it.
I wanna be there when you need the greatest advice,
When you feel like eveything is falling apart,
I wanna be there to make you whole.
I wanna get good lyrics for your heartbeat,
I'm not a good singer but I remember Do Re Mi
So let me.
When you dont need nobody by your side,
I want my presence to murder your depression.
I want my soul to cuddle you
and tell sadness that your heart...
When your heart doesnt wanna listen to anyone else,
I want my silence to sing to it and embrace it.
I wanna be there when you need the greatest advice,
When you feel like eveything is falling apart,
I wanna be there to make you whole.
I wanna get good lyrics for your heartbeat,
I'm not a good singer but I remember Do Re Mi
So let me.
When you dont need nobody by your side,
I want my presence to murder your depression.
I want my soul to cuddle you

Synchronised
She ran into my mind
And I ran out of words
Even worse
My brain got reserved and I started thinking in reverse,
It was a coincidence
Because she was dope and I was high,
A combination of both is a best story ever told.
We had different interests,
The only thing we had in common was common sense
So we thought more and spoke less,
And our tongues were stuck on ice bergs
With our thoughts sailing,
Emotions sinking and brains freezing,
Titanic feelings broken into two pieces,
I held back my senses,
Because I was...

We Stood No Chance
We always argued over facebook
But never came with a solution
And you were not even living that far from my hood
Just a block away
But we never spent much time together
So I had to block you away
And suggested to go seperate ways
I didnt mean to make our break-up an emotional breakdown,
But wake up,
How many times did I let you down?
No count.
And you?
Forever, no doubt.
Everytime I told you what I felt
You'd tell me I should stop lying to myself
I couldn't understand
So I sat there and lied
Besides, lies were all...
But never came with a solution
And you were not even living that far from my hood

Dear Pain...Screw You
What have these honest hearts have done
So bad that it made you haunt their peace?
After all those emotional battles they've won
You still see the beauty in making them cry theirselves to sleep
You love it when they swim in their own tears
Because you get to sip from their eyes
You love it when their blood pumps faster
Because you get to dance to the high tempo of their heartbeats
You make them weep
You bish
You make them frown
You bish
You make them sad
You bish
And at the end of the day
You still the...

This Right Here
People be creaping under your circumference
Telling you life aint nothing but a train that you oneday someday have to get off,
They be degrading you like you dont know shi
But this right here....this right here is Your life.
Control it!
They see you doing big and they start giving you disadvantages of your path
Then tomorrow they claim to others about good memories yall had,
Just to be seen as friends with a balling person.
They keep telling you there's a cliff on mountain top
But this right here...this right here is your journey
Complete...

Before I Met You
I cant help but to think of i before u
Me before we
Myself before us.
I always woke up with a happy heart,
Aching to the fast beat of excitement that its yet another day.
My mind was tranquil and observant,
My thoughts were only about me and life.
I would find happiness at anytime and it would end as happiness still,
I would argue with myself and agree with myself without harming my emotions,
I would challenge my abilities and strength for good intentions,
Not to prove to myself that I got a weakness.
But that was all before I...

Myself before us.

Boo, I Have Failed
Girl I just wanna let you know,
You were right
I Have Failed
Yes, I've done it all
The good and bad
But through it all,
I have failed to fail you boo
I failed to make you sad
I failed to put you through the pain
that most girls go through,
I failed to cheat on you and lie to you
even though I was getting those accusations from you,
I failed to drown your smile with your tears
that you woud've cried before getting to sleep
Boo, I have failed
Like any other niggoh would trash his girl ...
You were right

It Aint Nobody's Business, Not Even Yours
Woman....When on these retarded grounds of dying subjective love will you ever get to know how to run your your own way?
When focussing on the world's greatest judgements instead of your own circumference.
Then crying your eyes out when hearing creeps from the blinded side of lovers and fake friends.
What do you expect to reap when harvesting in a black-soil garden of evil,
Where your sadness is a steroid to those who wanna see your love destroyed.
There's rumours from loosers who just cant stay in their rooms,
Running after your happy butt and telling you...

My Word, My Breath
These words i cease to follow,
These words that sound borrowed,
They come in a rather reserved way
Of showing their intentions
But never intend to be understood.
This chain of lexicon luxury,
That follows no literature rules,
That letter, that phrase,
That verse that no good reader would wanna taste.
My word, my thought, a speech not so local,
My talk, my intellect, a convo not so vocal
My tongue repects what my mind delivers,
It spits the wisdom hidden in stupidity,
Too rare,
Not the spit of rap, as one...

Beat A, Beat B
Your heartbeat...
Damn your heartbeat,
beats to mine,
buzz like a honey bee ,
beats me off my feet,
less defeat,
more supreme,
that heartbeat...
Beat 1 Beat 2
beat beat between
the sweetness of your teeth,
where your taste I recieved,
beat twice,
nice and precise
to the pulse in my eye,
beat again, win my heart,
beat my game, eat your heart...
eat eat beat beat...
That heart beat...
I can repeat...
Whether team A or team B
These heart beats...
make a cadiac team
