Repent

Repent

(Repent definition, to feel sorry, self-reproachful, or contrite for past conduct ; regret or be conscience-stricken about a past action, attitude, etc.)

I like to get away from the world that we're living in
I see kids killing kids, and me killing kin
And when the end comes, you can't repent your sins
You though your wrong was right, you thought you'd win

But you deceived yourself from the first minute
Acted harsh and abrasive, up until the finish
Black eyes red knives, anger diminished
Murder was the case, but yourself your killing

Violation of innoscence, and your own rights
You only haunt yourself, when you sleep at night
You did the dirt, you took the life
We all know its a facede of pride
Your conscience is the tool, that will make you see the light...

Escape
Repent
Receive life
Live! Not survive

This is why it hurts

This is why it hurts

See my mind it suffers in silent’s
Suffers from the in directs and the hypement
Hyper mentality of my rightly guarded insanity
So it gets you mad and only comes out when I'm angry b

Cause all the emotion is locked up in a cabernet
Looks are deceiving cause its more like a safe
And every time you get the code wrong
I add another digit and build up your hate

I can see the hope disappear from your face
And you patients turns into impatience
Cause you can no longer wait
Me and you are no longer on the straight

Ups and downs and twists and turns
Lights this house on fire, and lets it burn
Nothings going to change, when anger churns
When are we going to grow up, when will we learn

I can't open up
That’s why the burdens burden all, and it hurts

Looking

Looking

Looking for words of wisdom
All on a layer of skin
Searching through the depths of my tissue
For the cells that could barely win
All of my imperfection
From all of these molecules comes sin
Trying to figure out the friends and foes it's like I see through tints
So I've got these blurry eyes
My blood vessels filled with the greenest stink
The trees came and freed my mind
Meditation, it's time for me to think
So I'm here looking and searching
Seeing past black white cream yellow grey and pink
I don't judge books by there covers
Cause that just shows that my mind os thin
So I'm patiently waiting
For the day where I can remove my mind from this brink
So I won't be done with my soul searching
My main focus is me that's why I'm looking in

Dead Comer Alive

Dead Comer Alive

The way you act is like you put me in the cold earth
No life in your eyes, what's your soul worth? 
Yes I'm jealous of yours, mine had no birth
Sometimes you make me wonder why the earth turns
Why my heart still beats? And why my gut churns?
Why you got me feeling wicked? What purpose do your cuts serve?
Love for you long gone, dead ends and no swerves
For change in my heart, I'm dead to you, no nerves

The silence from your tongue, doesn't match your eyes
I can tell you're thinking, and there's to much pride
It's like you put me in limbo, cause the loving died
No kissing, hugging and touching, that's why I'm not inside
But I'm shut out of your cold world, to much to hide?
If only it was that, I can't see you slide
If only you knew and you could read my mind
Then I wouldn't be in this comer of love, you'd be by my side

Moreover, they say that shit happens for a reason
I've always been in bloom, cause I'm not about the season
That's why I stand tall like a tree, life in my stem is what I'm feeling
And I bare fruit, for my poetry to be peeling
Cause my past is out the window, and my hope through the ceiling
And I pray for the thought of me in front of you kneeling 
That's why I'm here, sitting here revealing
To you they made me dead or deaden, and you're my only sense of healing

Habits

Habits

Money is on my mind again
I wonder why my pockets are empty
I'm trying to count my blessings
But my blessings haven't been plenty

My luck nearly ran out again
Back to zero, back to the start
I don't want to know what rich is
I just want enough to maintain a heart

So it finished again
Or did it just end prematurely 
But it doesn't matter now
I'll brake old spells, surely

So here I am again
I raise my glass high above my head
As a toast to all these habits
I look forward to good ones, and leave the unfortunate for dead

Watch this space

Watch this space

I heard Shakespeare say it once 
But I'm far from him 
Trying to touch heaven 
Like I'm far from sin
But forget being sky high
Cause i've got human limbs
But what I wouldn't do 
For the taste of wings
So I can fly up to the seraphs 
And hear the angels sing
Switch all the jewels in the crown
And rearrange the king
Flip coins, save pounds
To gain the bling
And sit at zero miles per hour
And let the haters watch my stainless spin
Dreams are dreams
Don't forget to watch this space I'm in

Man

Man

Man cannot live by bread alone
Because his mind must feed also
Upon the things he reads and the things he hears
To build him up, even more so

Meaning that the man must think
The man must reason and please his thought
So his mind ages and his life experiences
What wisdom is, he cannot be taught

So he goes out in the big wide world
And he is sat on and shat on and trampled
He crawls he runs drives and flies
And at times, he weakly ambles

He starts off in his mothers bosom
He suckles like a lamb
And from life's luke warm milk
He eventually becomes a man
