I Now KNOW What It Is...
To Be A FRUSTRATED ARTIST... !!!!

I May Not Be The FASTEST...
With Lyrics That I Kick...
Or Deemed To Be The HARDEST... !!!
Because of Scripts I FLIP... !!!

But What I Write...
Proves That I THINK... !!!!

And Kick Smart Rhymes...
About MUCH MORE...
Than Lyrical WARS...
To Prove I'm RAW...
And Deserve Applause
TRINKETS And Awards... !!!!

That Seem To Have The Cause...
of Making EGOS... SOAR... !!!!!

... Industry FRAUDS... !!!
Are The Ones Who Source...
Rent Boys And ******...
To... Answer Calls...

To BEND THIS Way...
And Bend THAT Way...

In What I Now See...
As CREATIVE Wordplay...

... CREATIVE INDEED...
Are These Industry Fiends... !!!

Pharoahe' Monch Said It BEST...

They DON'T Wanna Be...
...... MY FRIENDS...... !!!!!

So... THIS POEM...
Expresses To THEM... !!!!

"You industry cliques
can eat my faeces,
when I kick poetry
from my lavatory seat,
and then urinate
as well as defecate,
all over you fakes
and your industry games !"

While You Try To FRUSTRATE...
My Pen Meets Page...
At A FRIGHTENING Rate... !!!!!

And Continually Creates...
Wordplay That ELEVATES...
To A Time And Space...
Where YOU Are ERASED...
And Then REPLACED... !!!

WITHOUT......
NEW Schwarzeneggers... !!!!!
Figures Named  Jigga...
Or... Industry Figures... !!!!!

Who Now Paint...
... Minstrel Pictures... !!!!!

WITHOUT A...
Blackened Face... ?!?

Man Y'all Should Be ASHAMED... !!!!!
Studio JOKERS Playing Man Like POKER... !?!
Cos' It REALLY Is A Gamble...

To Find An Engineer...
Whose REALLY GOT An Ear...
To Produce For Artists GEARED...
To EXPRESS... WITHOUT Fear... !!!

And Talent That Can Handle...
Microphones And SCRAMBLE...
Words of Verse Like SCRABBLE... !!!

Because of Vocal Chords...
That Put PRESSURE On Boards... !!!!!

Because of Words That AREN'T Perverse... !!!!!
And Rehearsed AND REHEARSED... !!!!!

But... STILL Sound WORSE...
Than A NUN Trying To Curse... !!!!!

OVER... A Beat That's Weak...
Cos' Her Faiths A FALLACY...
Just Like THIS INDUSTRY... !!!!!

So FRUSTRATED... ???
... YES I AM... !!!

Cos' This BUSINESS Is A SHAM... !!!
And This Is... CLEARLY WHY...

ARTISTRY Has NO PRICE... !!!!
When What It KICKS Is REAL...
And Built Like F1 Wheels... !!!!!

NOT SOMETHING That Is Curried...
And Cooked Up In A HURRY...
To Be HOT AND EARN MONEY... !!!

These People ACT REAL FUNNY... !!!!!!
And DON'T Hesitate To STEAL...
Because They Have NO FEEL... !!!

So QUICKLY MAKE DUD DEALS...
To Keep What's REAL Concealed... !!!

I Guess They'd CLAIM... ?!?

"I'm not that great,
and, not that friendly !"

Well That's Because....
I DON'T Sleep With The ENEMY... !!!

Who ONLY Show Support...
When It BENEFITS THEIR CAUSE... !!!!!

They HELP THEMSELVES Fa' SURE............. !!!

So They've NEVER GOT TIME... !!!
To Hear My Rhymes And Creative Designs... ?!?

But When They DO...
My Art Gives PROOF...
That I Walk In BIG SHOES... !!!!!

So They're Left BEMUSED... ???
Because... What I Do...

Is WAY Beyond The ART...
That They... " Produce "... !!!!!

Did I Call It... " ART "... ?

Man That's A FARCE.... !!!!!
I Kick Nicer Farts Out of My ****... !!!
Than The CRAP They Chart...
That Gets TOP MARKS... !!!!!

TOP MARKS From WHO... ?
Those Who... "COLLUDE"...
With THEM Their Friends... !!!
Who Are Happy To Spend...
Their Time In Sheep Pens... ?!?

Yup... Sounds Like THEM... !!!!!

... INDUSTRY Crews...
Fish NEEDING Schools...
With FRESHER Smells...
Than What They SELL... !!!!!!

Which Is Their SOUL... !!!!!
For A... *** of Gold... ?!?

That Suits The FOOLS...
Who Cowboys SHOOT... !!!!!

They're Cowboys TOO... !!!!!!!
  
BROKE BACK Hounds in...
... CRoOKeD Mountains... !!!

Like... Studio Folk...
Who SNIFF THAT Coc'... !!!
And Then... DENY...
... ARTISTIC Minds....
ANY Studio Time... ?!?

So That They Can SHINE...
And Leave Them Behind... !!!

When They Get RECOGNISED... !!!

For Designs That RISE...
Faster Than DARK KNIGHTS... !!!

See I'm MADDER Than Rappers...
And **** Gun Clappers...
And MADDER Than The HATTER...
Who Runs YES INSANE CHATTER... !!!!

It Seems My Black CAN'T Market... !!!?!!!
Like Shots MISSING The TARGET... !!!!!

And So This Flows Been Charting...

The STRUGGLES of....

A....

... " FRUSTRATED ARTIST "...
It's a tough old game, where frustration can lead to poems like this !
