I

I tried your way of life, but I must have failed
I heard no voice from up above
Or felt the invisible hand of the righteous
But I still prayed underneath the cypress
I tried to your way of life, but I must have done it wrong
I heard no angel sing through the clouds
Or felt the eyes of a loving force
But I still walk this righteous course
I don’t believe in your ways and never will
I denounce all your ways for I have my own
I am not a puppet I am not a drone
I walk my own path one I have created myself
You may not agree but it not for you to decide
No need to come knocking to make see
All I ask is to let me be
I believe in what makes sense in my life
It may not make sense to you but that ok
I just hope it will one day
I don’t believe in violence that seems to spread
I don’t worship the devil though the only devil is what lives inside
Though at time it seemed I have lost my mind
Please take no offense for who I am
I am not your sacrificial lamb
If you don’t like what I have to say
The click the x and stay away

JUST BELIEVE

I"ve been wrestling with the devil
who"s been telling me to run.
I"m having trouble staying put
since this whole thing first begun.
I"ve been trying to show you all
the pieces that I have left.
But how can I do that
when i don"t know me my own damn self?
Every now and then it gets so hard
to sooth this thing thats deep inside.
And I"m unclear of the reason
that i keep trying so hard to hide.
I cant stop fate from doing
as it chooses who to please.
In case I"ve not been clear
I no longer can just believe.

miss

Do you ever miss me so bad that it hurts?
I just wonder if you have regrets.
Is it easy to put me away in your list of forgets?
I pray that you take time to reflect.
People like you dont deserve respect
you'll be the one that evil will wreck.
Lord have no mercy
and death be quick.

Life is Pain

Life is pain,
life is everything
I'm lost and all alone
I'm a long, long way from home
Life is pain
life has gone insane
I've fallen into the dark
It has broke my soul apart
Destroys my beating heart
No one sees the flower that grows in the garden of light,
they pass it by never to see the beauty, only that dark the seeps through the night. Scattered pieces of the shell that once was life, just to dwell in all its strife. Violence has now become the norm, from the moment we are born. No more love for our neighbor, now we beat them down as if it was just working labor. We must not fear, for there is beauty here. One must just open their eyes and see the gift from the giving tree. We should be helping one another, give a hand to our sister and brother. We should work together, then we all will live forever.
Because life is pain
Life is everything

About this poem:
This poem is about how dark life can be. We should not give in to despair, there are is beauty in life but people don't stop to see them anymore. People are to wrapped up in what makes us different that we fail to se what makes us the same.

Winter is colder than sun
Sun is hotter than winter
Some cats are very meow, others are not
Mice are very tricky
Mars is not so far
So let's be together

it's funny

It is funny you don’t wear blue anymore
Wore it to shreds tore?

it's funny you look for a place to go
So Alone, quiet, inside. a long forgotten woe?

Its funny how you ceased to be you
An alien force gone all awry spent too

Its funny your heart is frozen stone cold
Dried tears congealed, in harsh light, mock your mold

It’s funny you suddenly found a place in filthy revelry
death is near... though it's time, hidden cleverly

it's not funny nor sad
just a discarded piece in some trashy ballad

Trolls

Trolls beg my beliefs, in an instance you are cowards,
To stink your smell in my land God Damn you,
In brilliant ignorance you left without saying goodbye,
Just an agreement to hit back,
How brave are you cowardly typing your muscle,
When my door is open to you,
Feed me, anger my soul, in the end I will lose interest,
Nothing you say or do can rock me,
Apart from ac/dc,
Bring it on you monster as I'm not afraid,
encourage you gut to play games,
I'm here to play.....

As Darkness Falls.......

all the signs have passed not a trace ,nothing but a empty space ,like a fighter with broken hands and only them left to give ,a burned out soul waiting to be shoveled in!, the gray clouds overhead materialize in his eyes from within crawling on the cold shallow path that's bound to give in

Dream

Its not red or blue
Its magenta
you are painting it in the sky
i've learn it
but the sun broke it into pieces
i never have your colour
in my hand
if
you still here
i've probably have heart attack
but
you are living in a dream
dream that i was riding my bicycle
around our neighbourhood
you shout
"Arrest Me!"
that night
night that made me
feel sorrow
then you've turn
into erupsion
windswept
becoming dust
piece of particle
and
never come back

Changes

Something i wrote up off the top of my head.
Felt like writing a quick rap so here's something new.

Similar to that feeling of Eminem's song Stan with a twist of Tupac.
Just a way to envision the theme/beat if you know the songs or artists and their way of rapping.

*the sound of heavy rain to a beat*
Something has been weighing on my mind heavy, it's killin' me/
If only i was capable of showing others the f*cked up shit that I see/
So they can experience the frustrations of me being me/
Now i'm exposing a combination of different emotions/
It's like both my heart and mind are having internal explosions/
Pent-up rage and bottled up hate/
Pushing me beyond the brink of being irate/
Let me skip the introductions and avoid a debate/
Because lets face it, you only get one life to live so why not just embrace it/
The bullshit that haters and privileged bitches throw at you, just evade it/
If you got dreams and a set of goals in front of you, never lose sight, chase it/
Life is too short to have miseries and worries holdin' you down, so take the negative shit and erase it/
Like a blank slate, start fresh with a new life and repaint it/
Don't hesitate to have fun by poppin' a few bottles and dancin' the night away till you get faded/
Wake up the next day, start fresh and go out there and enjoy every minute of life/
Be glad you ain't one of those people that lives in a place surrounded by starvation, famine and strife/
I may not have a lot in life to brag about, but after all my struggles i'm just happy i made it/
But that's when reality hits and i remember/
I'm still striving to overcome my self-esteem and confidence with girls, but it's still hard after so many years of being too fat, too nice and being degraded/
Finally having the chance to once again talk to my mom after so many years/
Fighting back the heartache and loneliness of not having a family to go home to would bring many to tears/
I write these lyrical bars like my father writes me letters from behind his prison bars/
Being told by the people you thought you could trust that you'd never amount to shit and end up just like your parents, a screw up, you'll never become famous or successful like one of the stars/
Being alone with nobody to love you, to hug you, just to sit down and talk to/
That's the type of shit that's hard to get through, having the haunting feeling of forever being alone cause nobody will ever want you/
And you look back and realize, so many years of your life's gone to waste and you have nothing to be proud of or accomplishments to show for/
Doubting yourself once again and realizing maybe it's true, you won't ever amount to anything... you don't even know where to start or what to do anymore/
Contemplating if anyone would ever shed a tear or miss you if you were to die tomorrow/
Maybe if you felt my pain, perhaps you could fathom the real meaning of sorrow/



Warning: This is only poetic rap. Please don't take it too seriously, or get offended/get the wrong ideas. I wrote this a couple years ago and happened to stumble across it. I thought i'd share it with people. The lyrics are based of of some of my feelings and actual things in my life that have taken place.
Please don't think i have suicidal tendencies or plan on killing anyone. It's just a set of lyrics. And was setting a mood/feeling to deliver a message.

About this poem:
I occasionally write rap lyrics and bars from time to time when i'm bored or the emotion or an idea/rhythm hits me. I tend to rap with an old school Eminem style with the Slim Shady twists to my lyrics. I tend to have darker, angry, violent, s*xual lyrics. But mostly they're just ways of expressing emotions rather than following through with them and letting them run my life. Just because rappers say things doesn't mean they actually mean or do the things they do... they're mostly metaphors and alternative ways of self-expression. Hell, it's better to get your anger out on paper and deliver a message to influence others to create a talent in expressing their emotions and getting them off their shoulders/chest rather than following through with them and letting them overtake your life and control you.

A lot of people hate on artists and musicians like Eminem because he's either considered too aggressive, too angry, too violent, too sexist, too homophobic, too crazy... but little do they realize, Eminem chose to make a living expressing his darker and pent up feelings and emotions. Rather than following through with them and actually committing the things he says. He simply says it like a story. And that's the message he tries to get across to people when he put out the "Real Slim Shady" and songs like that. To explain to people that they should be themselves and not take his lyrics and words so seriously and to heart.

After all, it's entertainment. Instead take the message and ideas and create your own way of expressing yourself in a productive manner. And maybe you can touch the hearts of others and inspire others to become artists instead of criminals or murderers, rapists, thugs, etc. Sometimes you get mad and upset when people hurt you... you have messed up thoughts and feelings but you don't actually want those things to truly happen... you just feel that way sometimes. It's like telling someone you hate them one minute, and when you cool off... you realize it was a petty and stupid reason to get mad and say those things... and you really don't hate them. It's just how you felt at that time. Now imagine if you killed someone because at that time you felt like doing it.... now you just committed something that can never be taken back and you basically ruined your life.

Some people take things too seriously and they end up getting the wrong kind of message from something like music, movies, video games, books, etc. And they totally miss what the artist or developer was trying to truly get across... Those people are the people you normally see trying to emulate the artist or character they idolize. They lose track of the message and end up trying to be the package that was used to deliver the message.

Sorry for the rant, I hope my rap could possibly make people think about life and entertainment... maybe reconsider and have a newer outlook on artists or works of art/entertainment.

Thanks for your time.
