Broken Glass
I was dumb then
foolish and ignorant
An arrogant self image
But when i looked
In the mirror
All i saw was
Broken glass
foolish and ignorant
An arrogant self image
But when i looked
In the mirror
All i saw was
Broken glass

Trust
If we succomb to treason
Then we shall object with reason
For if trust is betrayed
Then so it shall be slain.
With the fall of thy word
Truth shall go unheard
For if we trust not one
Then our credibility is zero
And there shall be none
Gone are the days
That we used to live
Of the times our wicked ways
Bathed us all with sin
And now is the time
That we dine with wicked men
Then we shall object with reason
For if trust is betrayed
Then so it shall be slain.
With the fall of thy word
Truth shall go unheard
For if we trust not one
Then our credibility is zero
And there shall be none
Gone are the days
That we used to live
Of the times our wicked ways
Bathed us all with sin
And now is the time
That we dine with wicked men

Dirt road
The dirt road was dark, and desolate. Empty of any type of life, the sides containing old willow trees. I was driving my truck, nothing fancy, just some beat up ford. It was about 4 AM when i first saw the creature. Suspended from the branches, looking down at me with those red eyes. Piercing my soul, seemingly searching for something. I stop the truck, go in reverse, and its gone. No longer there, gone like the morning mist. I label it as my tired mind seeing things. But that thing, it looked so real. I keep going, to my house at the end of this dirt road. Only a 10 minute drive, nothing to...

Phone calls
I cringed as the phone rang, the headache raging through my skull just wouldnt let go, and i made my way to it. As i closed the gap between me and the phone, a mere 10 feet, i felt a sence of unease befall me. I took it as my allergies getting the best of me. When i picked up the phone, all was silent. Until a sudden, ear shattering laugh filled the room. I screamed in utter surprise, then my shock turned to anger as i realised it was just some kids pranking me. Little bastards thought it was fun to call people at 12:00 AM just to agitate them. Then i remember that, i too did the same as a...

Caged Tigers
These tigers inside my head
All tear, and scratch to be let out
They run about and clash against my walls
They scream and they screetch
To be let out
These tigers in my head
Are of the most vile breed
For they are the child of my evil and greed
These tigers are not to be tamed
For they are my master
And i am their cage
All tear, and scratch to be let out
They run about and clash against my walls
They scream and they screetch
To be let out
These tigers in my head
Are of the most vile breed
For they are the child of my evil and greed
These tigers are not to be tamed
For they are my master
And i am their cage

Best not to dwell
I am a loose cannon, i got a screw uncrewed inside my head
Im afraid i might lose my mind
Its a kind of fright, that screams at you at night
It makes you cry and want to die, and the frightning thing is, i dont know why
I could be happy and not give a damn
The next minute, i could have a knife in my hand
With the point up against my wrist
Hoping to taste deaths sweet kiss
Funny how it all happens, but now im here rappin
About life,and death
About the line that divides my head
One wants me dead, the other alive
So now i fight to...

A rose
The rose blooms
It rises to the sky
Forever seeking light
You are my light
My way out
This life is my tunell
All the lies my walls
Even a rose is confined to its garden
But without light
It never grows
You are my sun
And i am your rose
It rises to the sky
Forever seeking light
You are my light
My way out
This life is my tunell
All the lies my walls
Even a rose is confined to its garden
But without light
It never grows
You are my sun
And i am your rose

soar
I wanna fall in a cloud
And soar through the sky
I wanna look down, and see your eyes
I wanna walk down the road
And see the cars
I wanna feel hope behind these bars
I am inside a shell,
In my own prison cell
Where all my dreams died
then fell
But you are my key
You are all i need
And now i plead, will you stay with me?
I have found that you are my queen
I know i sound pathetic
But your thoughts surround me
Now do i lie here awake
Do i cry myself a lake
Or can i have you, all my love for you to...

Empty
Held within our hands
Empty in all the lands
Compassion is all but gone
Love is but an old song
The birds have flown away
Never to whistle their lullaby in future days
And the flowers grow no more
Dead inside their homes
Empty in all the lands
Compassion is all but gone
Love is but an old song
The birds have flown away
Never to whistle their lullaby in future days
And the flowers grow no more
Dead inside their homes

Flakes
Snow flakes are never the same
A white rain befalling the land
Obscuring the torn land
And showing an endess, timeless paradise.
No two flakes are the same
But they both blanket the sands
That we trod
A white rain befalling the land
Obscuring the torn land
And showing an endess, timeless paradise.
No two flakes are the same
But they both blanket the sands

String Theory
With space not so far away
With the end of days upon us
I look at the lases that bind us together
These strings tell a story
A little theory says that these tell the future
But do i need to know when i die
Do i need to see what horrifying monstrosity defeats me?
I look down at my strings
Connecting to other human beings
And it hits me
My monstrosity is humanity
And with this knife it plunges its claws at my heart
I feel my blood pour out
And my fear float away
And i look down at my body
Another puppet to add to the parade of everyday...

Not fake
Now i sit down
society looks at me and frowns
They try to label me
Try to make me see the darkness in me
That they see, but when i look at the mirror
I only see me, not some lie to despise
i know who i am and i dont need to pretend to be someone im not
So they can try to change me
But all they'll succeed in is hardening
My own belief
Im not a thing to grieve
My life might not be like yours
But you can bet that ive had my share of hurt
Felt myself be pushed down on the dirt
But i'll stay true to myself
I am who i am
Not some fake...
