HARD GOSPEL
Who knows when ones last breath will be?
Maybe, just maybe, if we do, we might live differently.
If that is your truth, then you’ve been living wrongly.
For we all know that our life ain’t guaranteed
Which is why we need to live it with death in mind
If tides should change and cool breeze turn storm
Will YOU pray for the same of what you’ve done
Or be fearful of what is to come?
Life is full of errors and scams
But don’t get lost in the terrors and shams
Isn’t it ironical? No one is sure of tomorrow
Yet, everyone makes plan for tomorrow
Show me a man who ain’t scared of death
And I’ll show you one who hasn’t live life
Show me a man who ain’t scared of dieing
And I’ll show you one who is scared of living
Isn’t it ironical? Heaven is most people goal
Yet, evil is all that is in their soul.
Show me a selfless human
And I’ll show you the horrors in his ways.
“do not be overly righteous” says the wise one
“Why should you bring ruin to yourself”
Still.. “do not be excessively foolish” he continues
“why die before your time?”
Don’t see life as black and white
For the grey part do also exist.
Never say that “it can never happen to me”
Rather, pray that it never happens to you
Yet, live like it had just happen to you...
LOVER BOY..
If tears could express how I feel about you, Darling, fuck river, I will cry you an ocean.
If the distance to your heart is has far as the heavens, I will build me a tower of Babel.
If the sun only brings a smile to your face, like Joshua, I will tell it to stand still.
If the moon is the source of your happiness, then I promise, no light shall shine on
earth again.
Gold I don't have, silver I have none but this love of mine is as precious as diamond
itself.
I know I have trust issues, blame me not but the ladies that came before you.
Wish I met you first then their would never have been a next.
If you hear the trumpet blow, fear not, it ain't the end times
Just an announcement that another bad guy has fallen in love.
LETTER TO HER
After meeting and knowing her
No other lady looks great again
Against all hurdles and bar
Boldly, I jump even in heavy rain
Everything makes sense with her
Love! Is that you I see again?
But all ain’t bed of roses for
Even the roses have their thorns
Lies is all I’ll be spitting, if
Ever I tell you, she’s a saint of no scorns
Many times I doubt her but
At all times, I love her.
THE IF TRUTH..
I keep feeling like a cheat
Sometimes more like a shit
Something not what looking at nor
Holding a candle out for
Yet most people around me think me great
Showing feelings and respect I can't hate
But scared of accepting or acknowledging because of my what ifs
What if, they find out I’m a scam
What if, they see thru d charade
What if, they finally see me as a sham
What if they identify the masquerade
Swears, it is tiring trying to be good and not being able to truly help
Always feels like my hands are tied
So many lives I would love to change but just can't
Worst of it is,
A lot of people know me
But not a lot know me well.
A CHAINED MAN
Tryna do right in a world of wrong
Where the bad feels good and the good is wrong
I guess I had to pour my heart into this song
With all I’m feeling, I doubt I can hold on for long
Fams say “keep calm and try to stay strong”
Taking the advice but still weak as I lose air in my lungs
Yeah, I feel chained by my moral principles
Unable to do things that other people do
Following directions from an old map in a
New word of no principle
Love to live life quiet and simple
But I know that’s impossible
With so many hurdles ‘n’ struggle
To scale through.
So, as I lay
I doubly pray
that from my dream I don’t go THROUGH.
REALITY NIGHTMARE.
Welcome to my world
Yes, a world filled with shattered hope
Yes, one of unclaimed dreams
Where lies the graves of hope
Yes, a place where fantasies becomes nightmares
And nightmares becomes reality
This is a place where scales are unbalanced
For lady justice is unjust.
Home, where the good is bad
And the bad is great.
Where faith is lost but we hold on to Fate
If the lady can't see our tears
Maybe the sisters will hear our wails.
UNTITLED
Why stand still, staring at the closed window?
Look around, I promise you'll see an open door
For every lost chance, is a new opportunity
And with every mistake comes a new-gained ability
Don't despair, you'll surely reap what you sow
But do beware, if you've been an ungrateful soul.
