Please offer genuine feedback, good or bad. I’m just starting to branch out into my writing... xD Time to Get a Clue Monday, August 20,
Up and Down,
Man...
That’s all my life has ever been...
Is just up and down...
BUT STILL
When you see me walkin
I aint walking with my head down
Nah, I’ve got my head held high
My eyes are always aimed at the sky
Especially at night
When I hit the green
Letting my mind take flight
Up past Mars
Through the nameless stars
Shit, everybody is asking me where I get my might
Brah, ‘God’ gave me true sight
So I can win the fight
And get up out of this world I call a zoo
So listen to these words and you might get a clue
How to play this game we call life
Cause guess WHAT???
Everybody’s got strife
It’s not how hard you get hit
It’s how fast you get back up
Screaming FUCK YOU BITCH
It’s ok to fall
Just don’t unpack and crawl by
You might live, but your soul will die
Its not a sin to cry
And if you think these words are lies
Shit, you’ll be begging for money while everyone just walks on bye
You gotta learn to spread your wings and fly
UP PAST MARS
THROUGH THE NAMELESS STARS
Y’all should see the beauty in this galaxy of ours
But nah, you’re more worried about that new phone
The one so expensive you took out a loan
When you could have taken that money and flown
Out of the depressed state your in
And y’all wonder how I do nothing but win
It’s only because I’ve learned not to condemn myself for my sins
Wake up and fight
Wake up and see the light
Realize that it’s only a simply plight
To change your perceptions
It’s easy to make those corrections
All you need is to take those daily reflections and put them to use
How do you think I learned to control my centimeter fuse?
Sometimes I think my faith is misused
Just like his was in the Jews
But what do you care?
You have your juice to drink
To bad that needle can’t make you think
Can’t make you right
Shits a temporary fix to a permanent problem
But y’all to blind to see it happenin
All the while y’all think I’m here rappin
Dumb mother fuckers
Must of come from a Lot Lizard and her trucker
Your misplaced faith just makes me pucker
All the while your so happy you got to fuck her
Too bad B.C. aint Vegas
That disease wont leave you shameless
So stand up and scream “FUCK YOU WORLD I CAN TAKE THIS”
And watch how quick those demons become faceless
I pray you take this as truth
I’m tired of seeing everyone walking around like we live in a same doped out sleuth
Don’t even know what sleuth means do ya Coop?
It’s alight, I teach kids to be couth
They seem wiser in their youth than you or I
So why don’t I just lay down and decay?
Because my bounce-back skills have no delay
And STILL
No one is listening to a word I say
Just living life day by day
Working yourself to the bone with no time to play
No skills to hone
No light to be shone
GET THE FUCK UP
Run yo ass out of this zoo
And one day you’ll get to come back and hear all these monkeys asking
“What did you do?
Who The Fuck Are You?”
And you’ll answer proudly,
I’m not a bitch as monkey behind bars pouting
Shit you might even learn to love speaking like a hick always greeting the pigs like “Hey Howdy”
For once you’ll have no anxiety
Talking to those who held you down with piety
Being one of us
Esteemed so highly
I’ll be waiting silently for my brothers and sisters
And after the long journey you’ll learn to love those blisters
Those scars
They’re proof you aint a zebra behind locked bars
Humbly saying I earned my scars
And realizing that life is more than just fast cars
I pray hard
That you get the truth from this lame ass bard
When that day comes
Aww Yea
You’re going to look back and say...
“Shhhiiittttt, that wasn’t so hard after all,
I guess you were right,
all I had to do was stand up after my fall
and show the world I know what it means to brawl”
On that day, I’ll be waiting to cover your nakedness in a shawl
Because you had the strength to stand up,
The courage to not live life in a crawl
And we’ll stand above all
Picking and choosing which door we go through down this long hall
Just don’t forget to turn around and give a hand to those that fall
And maybe, just maybe
We can fix this world destroyed by Katy
Laughing with each other,
Joyously thanking the love of our brothers
That kept us from becoming just another statistic
But fuck it,
If you don’t get what I’m laying
It’s because your a parasitic tic
Living life throwing a fit
While all those have ascended ditch you like a popped zit
Exclaiming “we don’t need the negativity of some two-faced bitch”
All because you read and listened to my shitty poem
One day you’ll be reminiscing
One day you’ll catch yourself whispering
“Thankfully I got to know ’im
His rant saved my life
And I’m no longer bothered by life’s strife”
