I'm familiar with the bottom I used to live there My neighbors wore the same dress code We greeted eachother with the familiar language of the Struggle Hearing the cries of the people when they were in disbelief of times of supreme demise A muted tongue from what life had done Destruction to a Middle Class family Payed a visit to my front door The Bottom caught my fall And replaced my sorrows with ambition To ignite action and propell us from the past Flowers sprouting through the cracks of concrete. The World so big zeroed in on the piece of earth i lived in A small fractured piece A shadow in the wilderness Looking for resources And then.... It was then that I found the missing pieces ....... The pieces....To BUILD A world so small had begun to grow so Tall in mY World Once living in destitude Now living amongst the multitude A Family of THREE became Many The bottom I knew all so well But a vision came to me and the idea began to swell The story unfolds as the story gets told Days are pages Obstacles overcome are Chapters And The End.....    is the Beginning And Climbing got me HERE!!!!!

The Climb
I'm familiar with the bottom I used to live there My neighbors wore the same dress code We greeted eachother with the familiar language of the Struggle Hearing the cries of the people when they were in disbelief of times of supreme demise A muted tongue from what life had done Destruction to a Middle Class family Payed a visit to my front door The Bottom caught my fall And replaced my sorrows with ambition To ignite action and propell us from the past Flowers sprouting through the cracks of concrete. The World so big zeroed in on the piece of earth i lived in A small fractured piece A shadow in the wilderness Looking for resources And then.... It was then that I found the missing pieces .......
