I'm Yours

So True...

Recycling

The plan to transplant these thoughts to words is absurd

How you transfer 30 years to 16 bars, 3 verses, and the word

This is my time to transform the world I see by being just me

I don’t think that this Sweetie could be my Sweet Tea simply

Because she has a pearl white teeth, nice smile and cute feet

In the end that means nothing to me and the things I achieve

She might forget about me when I’m in a dire need for reprieve

Can’t figure that these pains can change, rearrange all these stains

When I see success I know that I must refrain from being drained

My time is coming and I’m constantly learning that bridge burning

Is ok, if they aren’t on the same side of tracks where you’re learning

In the land of the brave that can’t stand all the flames

I know I should refrain from telling the truth about this reality

They think they own me since they put me on this salary

No dollar amount can amount this freedom that mounts

I been to the water and all I found was more thirsty people

Looking for someone else to tell them that they’re equal

The American mind state breeds more of the feeble

I am an entrepreneur who lived in an emotional repo

Spent two night in this Regal staring at the steeple

Fresh Face

The thought of being here without you is scary.

Thin coats of pain paint a life that feels so airy.

Mornings eyes in the mirror continually tearing

Still fixing my buttons after last night with Tahiry

It appears that we are much of the same

Same aim, same pain, same train, same claims

We don’t attempt to work through our problems

Keep letting the insolvent nonsense solve them

We are both the emotional victims of living

Still recovering from the last time we were giving

Need to take a minute and listen to my intuition

But when those legs are glistening, I’m forgetting

So sickening…

So freaking sickening…

So it’s all written in these poems that I'm scripting

Hoping these words are fixing all this bullshitting

No need to coat the words with lies that I hide

After all the different tries, still haven’t obliged

Funny how time flies when you’re sky high

Guess that’s when I’ll know if I arrived

The Journey of Love

Too many times I’ve been wrong
I guess being right takes too long
I’m done waiting, theres nothing left to do
But give all I have to you

Fixing this Ratty House

She wanted me to say something
When I actually had nothing
Always been anti handcuffing
Never known for lovin and huggin
Then I found out the only one I hurt
Is the one standing here in my dirt
Redefined my own self worth in her
And when she changed, I find a new girl
But did she change? Or was I just a frame
Picturing me in the middle of the game
And didn't realize that I didn't read the eyes
Funny how time flies when it starts with highs
Ride that wave til we reach a certain point
Then I run cause I can't...I can't...I can't
I don't need to act as if I ain't been better
But here in the cold with this thin sweater
Feeling so salty for dealing with this Peppa
Weighting my heart against all these feathers
Seems like my own angel has another angle
Guess can't keep pushing squares in triangles
So I keep thinking that things will change
I guess this is my time for something to say

Gotta Live

I Must Be Dead

Paint these thoughts and lyrics like pictures and fixtures of the spirit lifters
All about the dollar figures when you can't determine the gold diggers
Remembering that one could be your baby moms if you forget the Trojan
Pretty faces turn ugly when your thoughts were hoping she was golden
Sitting there with all your money on the table wishing you had folded
You left with nothing, she has everything and still went ahead and sold it
You just want to do the right thing when the wrong seems easier
Then you frustrated when the skeeter thinks you're beneath her
The living contradiction of man make you hold onto your false evidence
Can't play king when you are letting your life be decided by the peasants
In the end it was all a scene in the movie playing out your life's plan
You win the Oscar for Best Failure of the Year in your performance
The inclination of being better seems to make you invincible
Even though past actions were no where near indispensable
Never around when things happen, Mr. Dependable
Keep making the same mistakes trying to be influential

~The Lord's Prayer~

When I went to hell and back they weren't by my side
Now I decide that if I died, who cares if tears enter their eyes
That's why I feel more alive then taking a spirit dives to the dark side
Back at 800 Ole' English all my problems would love to reside
But bottles and swallows don't build back the spiritually hollow
And how could you lead the people when you don't even follow
(yourself)
So inside you hide the lies and times that made you cry
Spending time carving your mask and false facades
Until the right person has access to the locket or court docket
And all I want to do is be amongst the stars with Spacely Sprocket
But can't seem to stop destroying everything like Ray Crockett
Sipping and coating moments, sending the illusion that it solved them
Waking up every morning with pain still sitting there waiting
Has me debating between hating or trading in the option of failing
And the drink is baiting me to keep taking him in and leave again
So my great escape is to pen poetry to bend the face lie continuum

Lesson Learned

But I never get attracted to fans, cause the eager beaver can be the collapse of the dam
