Break beat
Stay street
Light when I sleep
Seep right through my window
Glow on my walls
Fall as the night
Write for the blogs
And the applause
In my own mind
I’m trying to own mine
No Oprah
Harpo with a harpoon
Black Ahab
Pierce through the backbone
Of the great black
With my Moby Dick
I never hit a woman in my life
Except my sister sometimes
When she got out of line
My Pops could never find
Her flaws at all
Till she got about as tall
As me
At 13
Slick serpentine
Dark moods sever me
From reality
Or the need of allies
At times I
Overload on stress
Choose pills matrix
Red blue
Who are you
A frail nigga
Flow sicker than the cancer
In my grandma
Wish I could answer
My phone when she calls
Or give her a call
And bear her burden
She
Not at all
Fuck man
Remember back in the days when
I was at her house every weekend
Thinking bout that grade school crush
Till I got crushed
By my 1st lover
And the sad fact is
I still love her
But I can’t touch her
Or let her know
How this shit hurts so
I store pain like a hard drive
And drive hard to the dark side
I’m Darth Maul
Darth Vader
& Palpatine
Build an empire
To end with these hands of mine
But I got to rise
Like the letter I
In Trajan typeface
All I want is to capitalize on my lowest case
Own a space be an enterprise
Captain Kirk with a Spock mind
Collect dimes like piggy banks
But I got one
So I give thanks
And wait the days we unite
No sex yet
I’m trying to do this right
No love yet
We barely struggle to fight
To keep going
But we keep growing
Till “I love you” phrase
Is beyond spoken
I know in my heart
That I know nothing
But I know a lot more
Than these niggas fronting
Pop told me
The hood bring out
The best and the worst in you
So what’s in you
My mind wanders
These late night ponder
Random ass thoughts
That amass to my very thought
Mind so aMAZing
Even I get lost…
