Storyline # 1 (part 4)
used to be a deadbeat,
until I found heavenly peace,
curved my life,
worked hard for my daughter,
so when she's older,
I can really say that I mold her,
the cold reality of the world,
begin with the cold reality of my flaws,
my flaws get locked jaw if I don't evolve,
bye, bye,
to all my flaws,
determined to step away,
focusing on never fall,
then I got the call,
became a single father and couldn't applaud,
my baby momma died in a car wreck,
we were never per-fect,
but we took care of our preci-ous,
now...

Storyline # 1 (part 3)
At times I feel like,
I then outgrown my friends,
My blessings too big,
And I'm surrounded by fish with no fins,
How could you swim?
If you never had dreams that roar,
Inside your spirit, sizzling like a fish on a skillet,
Feeling like I'm being reinvented,
And ones around me isn't fitted,
What a sad feeling,
The people I grew up with,
And got comfortable round,
Was the ones not fitted,
God told me leave that town,
So I pound on my chest,
And trust my heart,
Because at the end of the day,
I trusted God from the...

Storyline # 1
My tats reveals life,
I'm starting to see through,
Clear view,
I'm starting to see the bright light,
It cancels out the shady life,
I used to,
Live through,
Gun shots hit me,
I still got the proof,
One scar, two scar, maybe three,
I lost consciousness,
Maybe more,
Went through,
Turned over my bad life,
Birth of my first child, made me live right,
Tattooed God on my torso,
Tatted the cross on my back,
These not just designs,
This is the life I live by,
I'm committed like a kid that...

Two Close for Comfort
You continue to protect the close,
But do you know,
Constant protection is detrimental,
To your own relational growth,
Birds don't fly with caterpillars,
Sea animals don't live on land,
Some things aren't meant to fit together,
Like a bad plan,
Capture me now or let me slip away,
The choice is yours,
Do you have my back or will you back away,
What's a relationship without support,
It's like walking in a dark tunnel without a torch,
A marriage bond for divorce,
Just an appetizer without a full course,
Because even...

Uncover
Solid surrounding,
I'm feeling completely grounded yet I'm elevating,
More determined that ever,
Because the finish line awaken,
Taking my steps even more calculated,
Pride doesn't imprison me,
So I'm still concentrating,
Even though my world is surrounded by real gold,
And diamonds that are the finest like nice wine,
My current state is speaking to me saying you're doing just fine,
Invest in your future and keep God happy,
Only a few years away from birthing your plans of a beautiful family,
One day you'll be a pappy,
...

Worldly Love
Love is in the air,
The economy is getting better,
Seeming like people starting to care,
Heard of no killings today,
Seems like we starting to dare,
To live different,
No more killing lately,
Look at us loving different,
Races and creeds,
And people who succeed,
At being different,
From us,
We bleed the same,
So to hate someone similar to you,
Is insane,
Hoping to live full of love towards everyone,
While limiting the pain,
Is it possible?
Who can stop my dreams from pressing go?
I believe I can,...

The Blind Man
The blind man can truly see,
If he opens his eyes,
And see what we see,
The fact that he's blind,
Is only self belief,
Stigmatized by a society that tells him,
He can't see,
Sometimes you must open your heart,
To open your mind,
And your eyes follow suite,
It is with the heart we lead sometimes,
And tough times,
Our mentality helps us get through,
The times when our eyes,
See we can't make it through,
What if the blind man had vision?
How much would his life change?
Eye sight is meaningless,
To our...

Black People Problems
Black people problems,

Police suspicious,
Because he drives a Range Rover,

He reaches for his wallet....

One of You
Trying to lead the flock,
Though I'm part of the flock,
Not a black sheep,
So I blend in with the flock,
Do they choose to listen,
Or close their ears to my thoughts?
I'm just trying to help,
Though I need help myself,
Hopefully, I don't come off as perfect,
Maybe then, they'll allow my help,
Feel like a broke kid made millions,
Without anybody else,
It's no fun,
If others can't touch the wealth,
Made it here by myself,
Big mansion with no one there,
Drop messages to ones who drool,
About the success my life...
