Reminisce

Listening to your sweet voice on the phone

All I can remember is your lovely brownsugar skin tone

Like the River Nile your hair runs for miles

Eyes crystal clear, like water drops show

And proves that you're on top

Your ways of action make me want to put

you in a fraction

As for your intelligence it's of 100 black

Queens in one pair of pants

Your judging is right, like a bright moon light

I'm your inspiration not an exaggeration,

Just a solution to your confusion

Faith

The key to struggle in life is faith

Even when you're being juggled with knives

and heavy weights

The key to struggle is faith

Even if the apple you ate was a bait

The key to struggle is faith

Losing your faith is dropping your key,

Don't be like he, the first angel

to become the first devil,

a notorious abomination,

I'llcrush with a shovel

Not a physical level, but a mental level

of mind and soul

Hold your keys so you won't have to cop

a 'no please'

Just keep the faith

Girls Nowadays

Girls always talk about

How men treat them wrong

But when you treat them

Right it's a different song

I guess I was wrong to think

That being Mr. Right was pure light

Because when you treat them like a Queen

They start crushing your heart

By being so mean

You can tell them we are similar to the sun,

moon and stars,

But to them you're just another candy bar.

Girls nowadays don't need fulfilling

Because all they want is the sipping and the

dipping

Some say I'm crazy and some say I'm absurd

Or maybe I'm just a thorn bird

A bird that's aching from so many thorns

It hurts so much that I wish I was never"born

Let me warn you brothers about these girls

Because they ain't worth diamond and pearls.

I'm on Your Back

You can be a man named JackOr a girl named Sueann Black,

I'll let you know, I'm on your back

You can be a Mack that

Carries all the gacks, but

rUlet you know I'm on your back.

So come in large packs and

Smoke your sacks

Because the wack part is that

I'm always on your back

ACrush

One day I took a trip to Long IslandOnce I reached my destination

I started smiling

Something caught my eye

which made my thoughts start piling

I didn't know whether to start wiling or lying

to myself

about a crush that made me silent

Some one open the air vent

Because the way she bent

Sent enough vibrations to make my emotions

think they were meant to beJust like the sea that needing more than Gea

I'm on one knee copping no pleas

Just wanting to be with thee

So I'll combine my thoughts and rewind

Memories of crush in the heart of Caroline

God's Creation

I should praise the Lord for

filling this world V Ii th beautifulcreatures with so many features

that God knows how much I want

to see the future

To know that one day you'll be

mine. So now I can

refine my mind

In the state of mankind's

desirable pleasure

For example, the waywe exchange textures

To create a well balanced

mixture that will not weather

away day by day

So one day I willcontinue the cipher with a wife

and recreate a wonderfu11ife.

Unbalanced Times

Wherever I go all I can see is corruptionFrom police brutality to exploitation

Ifonly we had a good foundationWhere we as mankind can have gratification

Ifonly we 'could put our minds in motion

The world would be soft and

mild like dry skin with lotion

Showing love to one another like

we all drank. a love potion

But I guess that would be a good invention

Because when my eyes see reality

My thoughts become fictionI wish that there were an answer

for this confusion which can

give people a happy expression

Love at First Sight

A girl like you is always on my mindPut two 5's together and that's a dime

Which reminds me of the time we first met

When you looked so fine

That I wanted to take you out to dine

Where we could talk. together

And drink a little red wine

My heart knows when to draw the line

But the smell of your pleasurable perfume

Put me in a spell of love

tha t spells wedding bells

10



The Odd One

Being the odd one is 50 much fun

Because when the worldturns against me grabbing their guns

I'll just praise the Lord

for letting me be the odd one

Sobeat me down to a pulp by the tons

And scream out loud - Oh we've won

Because I'll let you know honey bun,

Here comes the sun

Bumingyou

from ashes to ashes and dust to dust

So.why ask why

I'm the odd one

It

Checkmate

Let's look at chess at a higher levelFor example, good versus evil

Or Angel versus Devil

Devil is what you call my Bishop

That has you in check

Don't hide behind your knight's desk

Because he'll have two tech's

to his neck by dawn

While I evaporate all your pawns

By playing a tune on a bull horn

Now the Devil is scorned by God's laws

While I break the king's meanQueen's jaw with a slap harder

than a lion's paw

Obey God's laws or get

terminated with God's loving claw
