A steady hand and a content heart.

Two things I never had.

Finish what you have started.

Five words I always say.

I'll get it done, I'll get it done.

I just can't finish today.

From the days of old they say that freedom is a mindset...
but as I grow old I'm having a hard time keeping my mind set

Slave mentality, even with spirituality.  Returning to my *****
like we living here in savagery.

Few will understand the words from the pen in my hand,
but it's not hard to tell that they are mightier
than the sword of any man.

Gentle, gentle, gentle, don't lead too loud
You wouldn't want to attract a crowd
This here is still for "us"
The ones who built a trust
I remember who you are,
and with me,
Loyalty doesn't stray too far.

How can you be an overgrown unicorn running through a grass field just
to get to your achievements?
How you can be a being that's accepted by everybody and don't have any
enemies or crazed fanatics?
How can you live a normal decent life without the violence and corruption
on every corner you turn to?
How could you be a positive influence when everything you've done in the
past comes back to haunt you?
they don't wanna see you succeed,
they don't wanna see you achieve,
they don't wanna see you graduate,
they don't wanna see you educate,
they don't wanna see you build a company,
they don't wanna see you making money,
they don't wanna see you go to college,
they don't wanna see you have knowledge.
In The World that we all live in today . I Say **** Em Lets move on,
The doubts and cheap talk comes free to ignorant people,
most of you can't even write sentences,
when in doubt don't let words get you down,
In a country , if you are black , they put you down,
Art Imitates Reality , that's what a good friend just taught us
last year , i ain't saying no names,
Can't be silenced in a world where if you speak the truth,
you could expect to be aimed,
Freethinking all time , I can't be tamed,
Family issues in my own home , And I'm blamed,
Conditions come worse than expected in this life,
Hope your minds not too closed just to beat shame,
we all got problems that need be solved,
Negative people remember your name,
and it seems every year the property value goes up that's the real shame.

in worn out
dogmatic truths
to others and our "self"
- we lie
but wouldn't it be
much better still,
to see with each
an every loving "eye"?

All I have to do      is care, tend to you
and when you flower,     I will feel human.

It took so much not to stop and stare ,
When you were going away ,
It took so much to hold back tears ,
While you indifferently went your way ,

I loved you then ,
And I love you still ,
Thinking about us ,
Brings in me a thrill ,

But it hurt when I heard ,
That you never really cared ,
I wanted to react ,
But I never really  dared ,

Now you are gone ,
And I'm gone ,
And its all over ,
But I love you still !
What can I do ?
