Just Live ur Life
Why are you like this?
"You haven't just changed a bit"
"But; you changed' complete(ly)"
You've lost that smiling face
Now you're up with that angry gaze
You're not like this before
You used to be a lovely boy
You aren't cool no more
rolling your eyelids-up
reacting without uttering words
So, your enthusiastic-al world...
has develop to being lonely and bore
Why are you silent?
You only sigh' then...
briefly smile' and
keep mute and look tiring
Is something baffling you?
Why are you quiet.. dude ...

Try not to give up
When your world seems upside down
And the goings seize to turn around
Try not to give up
When the mountain keeps getting high
And you strive till you loose your thigh
The night may seem to be filled with fright
But don't be scared of the reddish sky
Cos' tomorrow; it'd be alright
Move, my dear; keep moving on
For the sun is still shining up
Even if the goings turn-out rough
Try not; to give it up
If the world treat you with grave disdain
And nothings seems to sway your way
Don't give up; don't be afraid ...
And the goings seize to turn around
Try not to give up
When the mountain keeps getting high
And you strive till you loose your thigh
The night may seem to be filled with fright
But don't be scared of the reddish sky
Cos' tomorrow; it'd be alright
Move, my dear; keep moving on
For the sun is still shining up
Even if the goings turn-out rough
Try not; to give it up
If the world treat you with grave disdain
And nothings seems to sway your way
Don't give up; don't be afraid ...

Rich Man; Rich Man
Rich man; Rich man
Where is your dignity
people's sweat is your evening Schweppes
Their suffering is your hobby... funny
Their hungry tummy is your stomach yummy
Rich man; Rich man
You'll never know peace
For the riches you steal
And the things you give to buy that dignity
Rich man; oh Rich Man
Cruel and unsympathetic; with your evil-mind politics
Enslaving weak mind; with your rich man policies
No one dares challenge what you did or say
Anyone who dares tell the tale; won't live the coming day
Rich man;...

True Love
Enough is enough
Don't tell me there is true love
No, I don't wanna hear such a disgusting stuff
True love should be independent
Wholeheartedly aligned; not indented
Lovers shouldn't feel indebted
For the love they co-invented
"I love you to the moon and back"
"The stars are the witness to our...
rhythmically beating heart"
"For you only; my heart' beat forth and back"
Well, all those might just be brutal lies
Lies and lies; until those lies have no more space to lie
Okay; tell me; what is this thing called...
Don't tell me there is true love

You will remember me
There will come a day;
When you'll miss me
And you'll wish I'm still
What you're then; blind to see
Maybe on that day; you'll realise...
I live my best...
As ah honest man
And a friend indeed
Who always lend...
A helping hand...
when in need
You'll get the ploy
That I was a lonely boy
But a caring son
A loyal lover
And a buoyant brother
It will get clearer
That I was a corporate nigga
A competent teacher
An original gents
An OG; yes!
You'll understand...
That...
When you'll miss me
And you'll wish I'm still
What you're then; blind to see

Cruel Days
Money scarcity
Lack of security
Violence; atrocity
Low circulation
Impromptu calculation
High prices
Unpaid taxes
poor gets poorer
rich gets richer
Parent starved
Kids orphaned
High demand
Less earned
Borrowing for debts
Corruption, theft
tampered future
More expenditures
Paid goods not delivered
The delivered not paid
situations fluctuation
power escalation
Accumulation of misfortune
Battles not won
Death of loved ones
Youth hooligans
More crimes committed
A life...

Tired
I'm tired
I really need to retire
From this life; entire
Situation getting dire
Efforts sunk in mire
Why does it feel like fire
to get my desires
Or at least acquire
A little bit of my desire
What does it require
for me to spa up higher
If this is how I'll live till I expire
Then I'd better retire
From this life; entire
I really need to retire
From this life; entire
Situation getting dire
Efforts sunk in mire
Why does it feel like fire
to get my desires
Or at least acquire
A little bit of my desire
What does it require
for me to spa up higher
If this is how I'll live till I expire
Then I'd better retire
From this life; entire

Scars
I've sinned
I've been sinned against
I've grieved
Times and times again
I've made mistakes
Pained;
but faked I'm great
I've take the blame
For ah hearty sake
Put my heart at stake
burnt the steaks
licked the icing
and left the cake
I've lived with snakes
Caged in their toxic jail
Bear their poisonous ache
But still lived till date
my dream got raped
right before I wake
My love-filled way
Plagued
and erased
off this worldly page
I carry scars ...

Her and I
She's the angel you'd fight the devil for
And I am the hatred you'd give up love for
She is the heaven you'll go through hell for
I'm malignantly toxic; you can't help, but ask more
She's the light you'd go through darkness for
And I am the earthquake preceded by cloudburst
She is the sunshine after a thunderous downpour
Well, I am a terror; no height I wont bring you down from

Prodigal Son
Prodigal Son*
I'm the prodigal son
Born with a gold-silver spoon
Mummy said when I was born
She was on her caramel top
Showing her Rïchïë stunt off
They call me the prodigal son
Platonically coz
I'm Sardonically born
By the gold-digger mom
Now, I'll tell you more
Of how this prodigal son
was practically born

Yea, papa was a thug
Mama was a flirt

I could be
I can be your love
Your hearty mate from above
I can be your parachute
Making sure you never fall
I could be lovely
A caring buddy
I can be your shield
Who carries your burden
I can be your spaceship
Show you the galaxies in my heart
I can be your paradise
A precious home you'd forever dine
I could be your lightning
A thunder striking
Crushing the mountain that
stands across our path
I can be your soldier
Fight and win your battle
I could be your shoulder
Lean on me; let me...
