Through Rhythm and Poetry
R.A.P. has led me to my life’s Philosophy
If you cant find something to live for
You best find something to die for.
August 25, 2006
Praise The Lord
I was raised to believe in God and his Angels
But now that I’m older I have witnessed new angles
Call me anti-Muslim, anti-Semitic, an anti-Christ
But I for one think that God is over priced
They say a child is a miracle, no its not
All you need is a slut riding on a c0ck
And booze makes that all easy enough
Especially with jobs that hand out a badge and handcuffs
I wont bow to a God all about destruction
And won’t even let me rub out an erection
Buildings fell just for the spirit in tha sky
Children without family lay in tha corner and cry
What kind of divine power permits such actions?
And let people fire back with irrational reactions
People from tha east came to the new land
Then force their beliefs on inhabitants that don’t understand
And label them as immoral and savage
When theyre not the ones finding villages to ravage
All in the name of a God they bow to
I wont fall into the vile trend that you do
I reject the bullshit deity you fell for
Cuz if there is a God you are just his whore
Foldin like a girl thingy thinking that you will get more
Guess what, you wont get shit, youre his cattle
But most have already fallen for the priests prattle
Lettin children go into Sunday school with a pedophile
And when they get caught the shit doesn’t go to trail
Then there are the materialistic ones
Cuttin off tha dicks of their ten year old sons
People are poor while they live it up with their gold
Toss out hard bread while others eat around the mold
Every time I reach down in my pocket I pull out lint
Cuz after taxes all my money is spent
Unsecured people wanna belive in a higher authority
But in the end it leads them to break a minority
If that’s what God is about I’m ridin’ with tha Devil
Gambling with the underdog will raise me to another level

Contradictions
I once thought I was happy
I once thought I was sad
I once thought I was something
I once thought I was nothing
I once thought I was wanted
I once thought I was rejected
I once thought I deserved better
I once thought I wasn’t worthy
I once thought life is precious
I once thought life is expendable
I once thought death was punishment
I once thought death was freedom

Life Goes On
As I look up to tha sky and see tha clouds moving fast
I soon realize that I will be left in tha past
I wanna try to make ends meet and improve
But I’m sinking in quicksand too afraid to move
Please everybody just light tha match and cremate me
And don’t spend money to hold any kind of ceremony
And don’t spread my ashes across the L-B-C
That sea is not the place I deserve to be
Nobody would come put a slug in my brain
Leaving me all alone to take away my own pain
So now I’m sitting in dark room biting down on a glock
Clicked the safety off just waiting for the shot
But I couldn’t make my finger pull back
Now I’m in the front seat waiting to fully crack
Pipe leading to the window duct taped airtight
Turned on tha key now I wait to see that light
I wait for my life to flash before my eyez
And nutin’ but tha truth shines down from tha skyz
So I’ve packed it all into this final song
So people will remember that life goes on
I’ve done a lot of bad things, selling weed
Then upgrading customers into crack friends
I wish I could apologize to tha kids mother
For being the source that turned her only child against her
Drugs were a way to make some quick cash
Not thinking or caring about whose lives it would trash
If I could I would take all that shit back
And tell the muthaphukkaz to go get their lives on track
But I can’t say shit until I look at myself
Just being around me deteriorates your health
Being around me makes my enemies yours
And you’d swear I’m the reason that the rain still pours
When a man is in the streets drowning in his own vomit
Do you think anyone will even give a shit?
Cuz as one man dies another is born
One family celebrates and another will mourn
I used to wonder but now I realize what I do is wrong
But then I’d say f**k it cuz my mind is nearly gone
But now I have trouble carrying on a full conversation
And I cant stand this life I wish I had a vacation
I sometimes I’d try to talk to the Lord
And pray that he’d reach down and pull out my cord
And if he’s there I know that he aint listenin’
It gives me time to look and see what I’ll be missin’
Theres nothing here behind me or in front
When I open my eyes I see I’ve packed it all into a blunt
But now I wonder if that’s what I really want
A few hours where everything is nonchalant
I wish I coulda told her how I really felt
But I was afraid to say something and her eyes would welt
So I wonder if she’d still be here by my side
If I hadn’t let the drugs trip up my stride
Would she accept me if I bumped into her in tha city
Or would she look down and show me pity
But that shit is in tha past, all over now
I’d give my heart to another if I could remember how
It was just about f**kin around in high school
Until I learned that the world is naturally cruel
What am I supposed to do, be a bitch?
Or swear on the Holy Bible that I will not snitch
So many people in tha world that you just cant trust
It all wants to make me throw up in disgust
I’ll fight ‘em and if worse comes to worse
Then I’ll take my role of layin in a Hearst
I guess I would apologize to all the people I hurt
Makin them seem less than a clump of dirt
I understand what I was told by the judge
And I’d tell him that I don’t hold a grudge
But now my main enemy is the one in tha mirror
The one that I should be able to trust and never fear
But I see the shit that I don’t like
And I wanna hang his punk ass with the chain from my bike
And mama please, don’t cry for me
As you can see, I’m not the person I wanna be
I’m lost, trapped, struggling in my own mind
Trying to witness a better life but I’m just too blind
Do you realize how many times I wanted to cry?
About every single time that I wanted to die
But I, just can never shed a tear
Because death is one thing I do not fear
Now my vision is starting to fade to black
It is too late for me no turning back
My life fades away every single f**kin day
As children who don’t understand continue to play
But that’s just it life goes on
So people don’t shed a tear for when I’m gone
Cuz they say you pass on to a better place
So isn’t death something that I should embrace

Peace
Tell me why Farrakhan called for peace between Ice Cube and Common
But when it came to Westside Connection and Cypress Hill tha shit kept bombin
There was no rest for the wicked, no f**kin’ king of the hill
Just Niggaz and Mexicans smoking each other makin their lyrics real
Pointless conflicts endin the lives of L.A. residents
And fulfilling the ambitions of the American presidents
Then there was the story of the legends 2Pac and B.I.G.
Accusations being made in public are then glorified on the T.V.
Was it really about the East and the West and who’s best?
Or was it more underground, seeing who could past the test
Which one is the real “G” and who could do it better
Pullin’ on the thread is what unraveled the sweater
Now what is rap left with? 50 cent hollerin’ P.I.M.P.
Then walks into a candy shop to pay for the pu$$y
And now the souls of those who gave young brothas a chance
Are turning in their grave because of raps new stance
Before Hip Hop meant action to bring about peace
Now we have minorities joining hands with the police
People aren’t gonna turn back the clock to remember Martian and X
When brothas couldn’t have a parade without pigs snappin’ necks
How can the lower class in this country better the nation
When the white man continues to deny us education?
Now look whats happening at this countries most important city
They want to finance a wall, D.C. is the new home for the Klans committee
Before rap was a way to speak out against this type of inequality
But ever since the death of the legends theres been decline in quality
Now tell me what would be the best course of action
To be able to make change and reach satisfaction
Protests never did work for the Black Panthers did it?
Fall of the towers did for a bit but now the nations split
So point fingers at the Mexicans for crossin’ the boarder
Imagine the chaos if they were to get their shit in order
These days education has become the best weapon
But they had to teach Martian and X a lethal lesson
The fear of the American people is minorities gettin’ smart
Because once that happens they’ll tear the white man apart
So they choose to get rid of the Mexicans using legal force
And not admitting who are the real providers of the terrorists source
And once we can finally hold hands and fight like men
I guarantee another April 29 will be sure to happen again
Not in any order just a few that I have written. I still need to go through and edit them but this is how they are for now. Feel free to criticize.
