American Mexican-American. I Enjoy rapping, writing, sports, and politics. I'm inspired by Bob Dylan, Neil Young and Aesop Rock. I have no specific style but rather enjoy writing about things I feel strongly about.
Are you looking for love are you looking for hope Are you looking for world peace and the end of hunger Are you looking for food and survival necessities Are you looking for time and a cure to be younger You look above the sky and beneath the sea To the left of the left and the right of the right You look underneath your shoes and inside your hat But the answers seem to be nowhere in sight. The day continues and you postpone your search The day becomes a month and the month becomes a year And time continues with the thought in the back of your mind But time seems too busy to allow the course to veer And as the ever slowing beep by your side fades The answers seem nearer than ever before As soon as the solution is in grasp Click. You go to your respective shore Are you looking for love are you looking for hope Are you looking for world peace and the end of hunger Are you looking for food and survival necessities Are you looking for time and a cure to be younger Open your eyes front and center

The root of all evil, set to victimize the people Keep us separate but equal, justification is lethal But the system isn’t see through, it’s affecting you and me too And now we must redo everything that made us feeble. Now we must all give in to this suppressive prison This world in which we live in has been filled with premonition Oppose our own volition, our morals and our cognition Listen to the vision of new accepted fiscal rhetorician You claim to be a Christian with no moral intuition But I don’t envision a Christian to think with his commission But I may be incorrect and I may need to reflect Nevertheless, it’s a greedy world what can you expect?

The Root of All Evil
The winding never-ending road begins in the forest The root of all evil is an exchange of nature’s breath The root of all evil isn’t born in any sense The root of all evil begins with a death The carcass is driven to its’ after-life It’s given a new face and a new shade of green Most of it won’t make it to hell, every day it’s shredded There is no reminder that what it is, isn’t what it seems Each and every piece that makes it, starts in the same place In this place it is still meaningless until claimed It is then transferred for some purpose Could be violence, could be music, could be life…. It continues on this-never ending path The stock broker to get coffee The coffee worker to get burgers The burger griller to eat bread The baker to ride a skateboard The skateboarder to smoke *** The drug dealer to get a weapon The gun shop owner to have *** The ********** to keep living The pharmacist to play the market The stock broker to…. We’ve reached the beginning again. The root of all evil is our fuel to survive Our fuel to achieve, our fuel to happiness, our fuel to wrath So when does this stop and what happens when it dies The root of all evil begins with a death, it’s a never ending path
