Poet Introduction
Word bender
Real Music
Real dope rappers
Who write good flows
Not those whackers
Whose IQ ‘s low
Real emcees
Not them fake gees
Whose violence fancy life they pretend to live
In their video scene
Make them obscene
Rap shouldn’t be getting kids trapped
In a junkie life
Imagining wrongly outside the map
Now most of these kids had swapped
Their real life with that rap-gee crap
Things need to be done asap
Before things get out of bound
Before these kids gets out of hand
Rapping should be about feeling
Happening...

The woman of my rib
The woman of my rib
The one that makes me complete
The woman of my dream
My semi; my eve
She’s sleek and black
Fair or partly dark
Tall and slim
Doesn’t need a hill
To bring out the curves of her hips
The woman of my rib
The one that makes me whole
With the heart that gives me home
She ‘d filled my every hole
With the smile that gives me hope
She’s thick and white
Short and fat
Doesn’t need a cream
To bring out the beauty of her skin
The woman of my rib
Is intelligent and wise ...

Falling
I fell in love
Striving to get back up
Struggling to get away
But damn! I never stand again
She fell in love
Loss the remote control
To her heart and soul
Unable to feel whole alone
We fell in love
Tried hard to avoid the void
Brilliantly paralyzed; beautifully disordered
Falling parallel towards each other
All those time
I try
To dust myself off and stand
But it seems I’m forever strand
All my life I’ve never been this
Addict to someone’s bliss
You’ve got that something that I believe

All my life I’ve never been this

The woman I love
The woman I love
Feast amidst the star
Jealoused by the beauty god
The star wish they shine as her
The woman I love
Bask in the morning light
Wrong is not a word in her world
Everything she does is right
The woman I love
Is poetically romantic
Her words were the rhythmic rhyme
That make my heart beat a thousand times
The woman I love
Makes my heart beat back and forth
And she possess the torch
That guides me home when I’m lost
The woman I love
Gorgeous and mightily blessed
Sexy even in ah hijabi dress ...

Chess with the devil
And so I walk in
Into the devil’s inn
And Aye! I found the devil sitting on his usual chair
In that dark room filled with smoky air
Still seated facing his golden chess
Thinking who’s next he’d trick to hell
Knock! Knock! Is anybody in
He already knew it’s me
He pull his metallic door stylishly
Raising his hand Hi-ing me
Ehy man; here you are again
Tell me; this time, what’s your aim
Tell me; without me; what have you attain
After all; you understand my style of game
He offered me a place

Dear me,
Dear me
Forget about the words
Of the people of this world
It's just an act of disdain
Trying to make you stray
From the right-fill way
That leads to that pearly gate
To some you're genius; to others you're dull
To some you're religious; to some you're worse
To some your approach
Is rude and cold
Some thought you're bestowed
With ah gentle soul
To some you're a hero; to some you're a curse
To some you're a weirdo; so they tag you with a kkk cult
To some you're slow; so you're not their kind
And to some folk; your...

Fallen Angel
I learnt you used to be a king
A closer kins to the the Supreme Being
I learnt that you used to be a god
You could control the moon with just a word
I learnt you own a diamond throne
With crown made of gold
I learnt you were there
At the creation of the first sapien
You were so closed to the stars
The moon neighboured at your backyard
You dine up in the sky
And you were so higher than high
But the creation of ghasty Adam
A creature so I am (proud)
Tricked by not-so-innocent Eve
Gat you misconceive
You challenged...

Beautiful Brilliance
Beautiful Brilliance
Beautiful brilliance
The type that ignites
A weak heart
The type that surpass
The compass
Of this earth
Beautiful brilliance
Wonderfully scribed
Painting the skies
Bright and wild
With its glittering smile
Beautiful brilliance
indescribably beautiful
Far beyond physical
That makes dying flowers bloom
And make the world feel brand new
Beautiful brilliance
That makes the grass seem greener
Beauty; so brilliantly made
Makes the stars look beautifully gray ...

Rose
I walk the street
Of the town labelled "Iroko hill"
I found this tree beautifully lined
The seeds and fruits dully aligned
Like a burning smile
On a sunny sky
The branch and leaves
Looks gorgeously green
Like a flowery beam
A sirius; it seems
The trunk and branch; tall and inclined
The flower glows
I wish she was mine
But I got the answer No
I picked a seed from a bosom branch
To give me hope
I plant this seed into the ground
I hope it grows
That after some years; if I'm still around
It'd yield a...

They Were Here Yesterday
They were here yesterday
They were here yesterday
Acting like they wouldn’t fade
All over the place
Showcasing their beautiful face
Their 6pack on display
The only thing they can’t devour is age
Now there they lay
In an everlasting grave
In ah non-stopping pain
Rust and decay
They were here yesterday
Powerful and filthy rich
Looking twenty-five when they’re fifty-six
Coz they’re dully fit
Balling at the peak
Immortality is the only thing
They couldn’t reach
Coz their kryptonit kit
Wouldn’t...

HURT AND PAIN
These days I guess I don't deserve to live
I felt disheartening
Hard to live; happily
Hurt and pain is all I could feel
Work ain't going fine
Life?; "not treating right"
Everyone telling me how bad I be
Trashing me
Battering
When parent blasphemy
Like I don't deserve to be
In this fa-mily
Friends don't wanna hang with me
On their Nike clique
Coz my dressing style is seeing
As lowlify thing
Girlfriend telling me
What a non-caring freak I be
For I'm just heartlessly being
Like a robot machine ...
