The highest Life
Dreams are made of what you most desire and fear
Reality is made of what is here and what you make of it

So what kind of life do we fear and desire all at the same time to live?
Their dream come true
Even the most perfect of all dreams will have holes poked in them
You can't see it because you cannot accept your dreams reality

We want to live the high life but we couldn't dream that big from a realistic view
The life we want can be taken if and only if you reach for it

Idle hands gather dust and ******* while others exercise their rights
No one can stop you unless you allow your eyes to be deceived

My love
My love can't be bought, it's priceless
Like the love we think we all deserve
Our happiness seems more like our attention span
Abruptly sidetracked by the power of instant satisfaction
Has any of our new generation experienced love without technology as an aid?
Do we lose hope more easily than conjure some up?
Let me ask you if time was a commodity, would you spend it with me?
Invisible chain
Trapped by the hand that feeds me
Weighing me down, slowly pushing the life out of me
Everyday a new chance to leave it all
But I chose to endure and thrive
To break and earn my release from the chains that hold us down
Sink or swim we pick one everyday
I'm not Michael Phelps, but I sure do earn my gold everyday
I take a 9-iron to my problems everyday knock em out the park
Never a straight shot or a hole in one
Always a challenge not so much fun
We have our moment with the hand that feeds us
Let's hope it's not more than we can chew
447 · Mar 2013
Un-filling
Empty promises
Nothing more than words to give
When it's your time I want
But like time itself it waits for no one, and neither do you

Full of false hope like filling an empty glass with air
Nothing to show for only excuses that echo and repeat themselves
Like history, but to a lesser extent and lesser importance

I've been done for a while
unconsciously fighting a battle I cannot win but will not lose

Subconcious
Her body was as good as mine
She wanted mine and I wanted hers
I couldn't ask for  more
Hypnotized by lost and overcome with desire
The spark between our bodies was practically fire
Intensity picks up, our bodies together
Like lighter fluid, ready to be lit
With the slightest touch
Like two sticks rubbing together
The flame so strong yet my hands never got burned
The work I've done, your body earned
The smell of lust and sin in the air
The feel smooth and silky hair
Not a single care in the world
But to explore each others bodies until we grow old
Bang my head on the wall
Just to forget it all
Nothing seems to fit
Like a puzzle piece out of the mix
I can't handle this struggle alone
I need to borrow your strength
To dig me out of this hole
Full of sorrow and problems galore
Without you it feels like a chore
Going down my list to see if I have the problems
Solutions no where in sight, no way to solve them
You held the remedy, the cure, the key
I make a scene no one to look and see
Why did you leave and not leave with me?
438 · Dec 2012
How do we get there?
I use to be afraid I'd never amount to nothing
Now I'm only thinking about how I'm gonna be something
Someday somewhere at some point in time
Looking over all my mistakes
showing how I made it
from all my problems to all my solutions
Call this a new age revolution
Your past don't shape your future
You do
And the only way to make it happen is to get out there
and do you
Tell ya good friends to get outcha way
Today is your day, your time, your moment to shine
Ain't no one gonna stop me when I'm bout to drop this rhyme
Thinking in my head is what I do best and you can't mess with me anymore
Cuz I ain't need you never did never will
I rhyme not for the enjoyment but for the thrill
438 · Feb 2013
Everday I think twice
I am the only one who can hate me
No one can know me better
Or hate harder on me than I
These times are tough
Some days man, I've just had enough

I often wonder how I'll "go"
Quick? Painless? In pieces?
My heart seem to be in the rut
Small, shattered to bits.
I can't feel my heart beat, unless I feel pain
But when I feel pain, the thoughts come rolling in...
Full of doubt, exuding sin

Nights;sleepless
Fights;enticing
Why everything that's supposed to be bad make me feel so good?
437 · Dec 2012
The words that came to mind
I walked, yea it took a while
What did I see you ask?
Unbelievable things to say the least
A blind man who told me my flaws are clearly visible
A deaf woman who could hear my cries for help
Contradictory? Hardly.

I've seen the labor I put into my life slowly off
My choices sometimes less than my expectations
Never settle for less than your best

Nothing could hold me back (No thing)
If you can be yourself, then you can be anyone.
What would you be?
Would you be?
Can you see what I am saying?
Can you hear what I am showing you?

Your gaze lingered like a catchy tune
All by my lonesome, nothing to do
But stare at the ceiling and think of you
I flipped through some channels to distract myself
But it was clear in that moment I needed some help
Incendiary eyes to set me a blaze
Your look got my heart roaming a maze
And I'm amazed that this phase hasn't faded away
All because of your lingering gaze
The shadows that fall onto me
Where I'm going there won't be any light
Where will my shadow fall?
Will I be followed?
The little voice speaks to me out of curiosity I humor it
What if my shadow were to disappear?
Will the little voice pass on my words?
To find a shadow, an uncertain conquest
The shadow in the background of the alley
I follow, without hesitation.
The voices and shadows guide me
Where had my shadow gone

to the teacher that held the key to my future
she saw the potential I had yet to discover
wither her skeleton key of education
she used it to unlock a power for me I would learn to use
not for good or evil just a place to start
to help make that change of heart
think about the world as your oyster
it starts out small but inside is
a world of illustrious wonder and possibilities to the teacher that held the key to my future
she saw the potential I had yet to discover
wither her skeleton key of education

Hand Me A Drink
Just sit me down, put a drink in my hand
Social drinkers, half sober people
It brings us together for a time and a half
My drink is half full let's all fill it up
We drink to remember not to forget
the memories and times we shared, we lived, regret....
Just take it easy, have a sip or two
You'll feel better once we get a drink in you.
431 · Aug 2013
I thought
Carve your name into my skull
The way you creep across my mind is so sick
Thoughts of ******* become normal
I've become complacent, thought I had you from the start
No one was fooled but we were both charmed
No where to go but each others arms
So I thought; complacent

My strange addiction (10w)
I fantasize about you unable to decipher wants from needs

Vibes
Empath I feel the vibes
That can't be described
So grab my hand and feel my energy
Live vicariously through me
When you feel uncertain
Know inside we are all still hurting
From the feelings we think we can't let out
You're not a let down but please let down your hair
Stress will turn them Grey
Know it's okay not to be okay
427 · Feb 2013
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
When you start-stop a thousand times
can't think straight or throw down a decent rhyme
Rage quit give up on the spot
It's easier than to finish?
Yea I think not.
There was a time I use to dance
To the beat of our hearts in the night
It felt so right, under the covers, felt so right
But now my feet don't move for no one else..
Sad feet with no tune to jitter bug
And I thought I knew the feeling called love
I'll never let my heart do the talking
Loud mouth...
427 · Feb 2013
Few questions I ponder
If I start to fly will my worries gravitate towards the sun?
Can I just get away to a place that doesn't exist?
Does a cave keep out the bad sounds and rebound it onto my enemies?
Will I work for the dark where no one can see my misdeeds?
Could I be the difference between life and death if I am no where in sight?
How can I see the end coming from the beginning?
427 · Oct 2014
The real world
I traded my kindness for weakness
Smiled when I felt an utter saddness
Lied to protect the ones I love
And still end up feeling empty
A misplaced urn of eternal emotion
Now I'm nothing more than a fire place decoration
I did follow one time, and i'd sure do it again
Leading never been my preference but someone had to do it
No need to think no need to worry
React on command, speak when spoken
too many people take the easy way out
But once in a while there is one
Ready to put the team on their back
But why?
To feel superior? To hog the attention?
Or inspire others to lead rather than be lead?
Maybe we should all take a second to think
Why follow when you know it doesn't go anywhere?
426 · Mar 2016
Say and do/sit and watch
Voices full of choices but no way make
Chances we are given but do not take
Minds full of judgement and regret
Especially when the outcome is the opposite of what you expect
Irony is elusive, but not unreal
Sometimes it's better to expect than to just deal
With something you had some power over to stop
But now when it's too late all we want to do is talk
About what could have been instead of what will be
I'm an optimist that's the difference between you and me
No matter the outcome for better or worse
I will not allow my path to change its direction
The same goes for the mirror that portrays my reflection
423 · May 2014
Enough said
I should have left it at hello
My pursuit is cycling
Only to prove I am insane by definition
Is it silly to have faith?
Like a drug to soothe my pain
This constant eye strain called beauty
Feels like a paranoia has taken over me
It's weighing me down but I ask
How far will I walk on shattered glass
Before I realize where to go?
423 · Feb 2013
.
.
I'm so high it gets me off
Clouded judgement, instant gratification
No worries no troubles just eyes glazed over looking like bubbles
Clear as glass my choices too
From your hand to mine yea from mine to you
Spit fire back and forth
The fun only gets louder from here
Imagination takes over words become useless
Ride the sounds, let them take you away
Forever  lost in this high today
422 · Mar 2013
IHEH
We can live forever
It's only a matter of time
What you do with it and what you don't
Handle with care, poke holes to breathe
Time waits for no man child or woman but carries on for all
I want to do it all live my life like a boss
By the time it's over, if you never heard of me it's your loss
421 · Aug 2013
Hold on
Hold your head high soldier it's not over yet
Our journey is just begun so embrace the ****
And I'll keep this smile on my heart
Because web you start to doubt and start to think
Is when this ship will begin to sink
Sturdy out minds needed only necessary
Thinking traps are our adversary
We can make it through this endless endeavor
One day at a time instead of forever
421 · Dec 2012
Perfection Deception
I'm hypnotized
By the look in your eyes
The beauty of your face
The feel of your thighs
The way you think
The endless lies
Is this right?
Am I wrong?
To sit here and take this?
It's been so long.
Since I've seen a face like yours
I've never been sure
How I found you
Or if you're real
So perfect
I could have said
To think if it hadn't been for me
*You would be...
421 · Dec 2012
What I dare not think
You use to have envy that you deserved but you threw it away without knowing what it was you told me I was your final chance at life you told me you would do it with a knife that night you ruined
For me just for attention and though you never speak to me anymore did I mention i had wish her life had come to an end there's no reason for your existence you don't deserve to be eaten by worms buried alive and left to squirm for the life I saved in vein just Do it already don't put it on hold your diluted  sense of reality is getting old yet you still tell me you're in pain now I know you have nothing better to do than lie hope the last thing you do is cry

Big picture
Yea I see your success,
But no no I won't get jealous
Yea dude, yea I see you schemin'
But you can't knock me down I'll keep on dreamin'
With the power of words, words over power
No note of mine will ever be sour'
I'll sing of the day I make it big
Victory sippin' time to take that swig

Goods
love is like the night
Hard to see but easy to get lost in
love is like a bad habit
Hard to quit and have to have it
Uplifting anyone's day, slight boost to the self esteem
A girl like that use to be my dream
417 · Jul 2013
I've been 18 for a year
Being an adult  on the fast track called life
We rush to grow up but not understand
Choices and responsibility in life
Happy beginnings would thy be nice?
Life's not fair, never was, never will be
Choose your opponent choose your difficulty
There's a reason for easy medium and hard
To test the waters, then break the limits
Or be beaten by life's tedious gimmicks
415 · Sep 2014
My sixth sense
I was dead the whole time
I watched your life and mine
Couldn't believe it, I thought I was fine
Being happy, considered a crime
"It'll be okay" I'd always chime
Thinking I'm finally in my prime
I can't believe this sour rhyme
Unripe and unpleasant green lime
Silent now my thoughts fade away, mime
413 · Jul 2019
It's been a minute
It's been a minute since I've talked to my Father
he's got 3 other kids I don't want to be a bother

It's been a minute since I've lived in the now
Always thinking about when but never how

I got problems that only I can fix
It's been a minute since I wrote something like this

I don't get down I just get stressed out
some days I feel like I'm having a mental drought
or lack of capacity to handle the tenacity
This fast-moving life is a travesty
Unable to fulfill my happiness and that's blasphemy

But I digress, It's been a minute since I've gotten my thoughts off my chest and out of my brain
It's been a minute since I've been able to enjoy the rain
Feel each droplet as it hits and resets all my pain

It's been a minute since I've had a plan
Everything in my life I wanted to do I'm just saying
I've done it, but no I won't quit
I've got ADHD so I can't sit
Still, I know I won't stop till
I break the end off this quill
Or I make some money off this so I can chill
413 · Dec 2012
Purpose(revamped)
We all have a purpose
Just needs to be found
A life long game of hide and seek
Some need to look harder than others
What is your purpose?
If it's too hard some will quit
All I can say is stick with it
What we enjoy the most could be our niche
Can we choose our worth and purpose?
Keep looking, but not with your eyes
We all have a purpose
It's only a matter of time
412 · Oct 2013
Walking with fire feet
I've shook hands with those hell bound
I say cya later. I know I will
Hands on fire soul as black as night
The fire inside me burning like my new home
I been through hell and back when the heat is on
I fire back, where the good ones at?
This worlds come to a fiery end I tell them that

Come closer you know I could whisper in your ear
Late night conversations and sweet nothings
I'll say it all to keep you near

Please rest your tired soul, in the future there are more rounds to go
I could lie and tell you I'll share some things
But right now I've told you everything you could want to know

Keep that smile to a playful grin
I promise one day the door will be open
For you to knock I'll let you in

Just give me some time
Talk about the world no doubt
And ease the strain on your troubled mind

Sleepless nights into the dreary day
Tired mind but a smile on my face
Worth the to price I can safely say
411 · Apr 2013
My first 20w
True love, miracles, and atrocities
All can be experienced, all can be found and all can be seen

Pacifist
I'm a passionate pacifist who'd never pass a fist
Torture, I never asked for this
I'm fine but I need an asterisk
I feel like my life is on a script
Waiting for me to get a grip
Why I could never turn the page
Every time I started to read I got delayed
Every time I had to stay home I was afraid
Of being a part of some ****** up escapade
Pardon my language but to a kid that's anguish
To this day I've crept in silence
Always turning the other cheek to violence
But one day I finally snapped
8 or 9 years old on the attack
I know it must have been painful...
But I took a hockey stick to my mother's ankle
To provide some context I've had enough
No one believing me always thinks it's a bluff
But now she was forced to stay home and see
Even then she didn't believe

What's a child to do in a state of panic
A kid full of love but a heart like titanic
It's not like I went and planned it
But without my mother to believe in me, I felt like I didn't belong on this planet
In due time she saw the light
Every day I had to fight
For my sanity and what little light
I possessed it wasn't right
But to this day I always chose peace
Now you see the power in believing in me?
I've been a soldier and a writer
Yes a lover and a fighter
This weight lifted years later I feel so much lighter
I'm a pacifist there is no doubt
I'll fight anyone or anything but would rather just talk it out
409 · Mar 2015
Misplaced scared faced
Mini heart attack I've fallen ill
In the bathroom or perhaps the window sill?
Holes in my pockets have a million stories to tell
I got myself asking "Where in the hell?"
Is it only me that this happens to?
Either way I'm right there with you!
408 · Jul 2017
Light
If you turn the lights on
And close your eyes
Do you still feel the same?
406 · Jul 2013
Ouch
Could I just be a cancer? Just waiting to strike
Taking the ones down with me that would have been Better off
I've not leeched but corrupted them
A process charm and wit can fix but does the opposite
I want your happiness, bottled up
For me to drink out of your decision cup
It's too easy stay far but near
Better off to not see me here...ever?

Hybernation
Dormant was my love like a bear waiting for the right time to emerge from a slump like slumber
Awakened at the sight, smell, and touch of your presence
Not enough time to dream of a love so perfect is what my heart tells me
I hold your heart to mine, I treat it as my own
Let it beat, let it beat, let it beat when I come near
I'll be the one to wake your love when the time comes
405 · Aug 2014
Prey
They call me a fiend all I do is dream in the dark
Looking around, nothing to see..where do I start?
A path is it's darkest without a sense of direction
Even more so without proper affection
Life ain't about the golden arches so you don't gotta love it
One day you'll walk in the planes high in the sky above it
Inside and out in me there's nothing to see
Penetrate my soul with a feeling of glee
Could it be, too far in the dark for we to see
Pardon me, but could this be my dark fantasy
No wait, too much on my plate, it's time to share my leftovers
We're in this mess till it's far from over, push over
Make some room, we might as well be good as dead
But with you by my side clarity is the light inside my head
404 · Feb 2013
That's it for me and you
I gave the last of what I had
To you to ruin, yea my bad

Nothing worse than sensing the end
Of a great friendship sinking below the status of a great friend

It was my fault, and mine alone
I was like an annoying neighbor ringing the bell
Not picking up your phone, your heart saying there is nobody home

You made me love like a kid and take responsibility like an adult
But I guess one of us wasn't ready to grow up...you
I don't give up, it's not in my nature or creed
But this is pointless, and the most sensible action at this point is to leave

You once made my feelings grow, eyes veer away, speech slur, and heart follow
But instead of falling into the arms or sorrow
My heart and mind can rest easy because there is always tomorrow

New time, new day, NEW
At this point I just want to forget about you
That's it for me now I don't care what you do

Rap style1
Our generation keeps saying live free or die young
before their living has even begun
It's hard to understand if I'm doing either at the moment
Seems like every moment I seize tends to freeze now I own it
My life's like muhammad ali with no feet
Just floating like a butterfly and stinging like a bee when I speak
Consider what you just heard to be an intro
To me coming as a poet with new flow

Look of pure deception never able to appease
Cleo Patra drop a man down to his knees
Hand on hand let the feelings rush
A secret desire an temptation keep it on the hush
A vicious cycle no more like history

Write it in the books to commemorate your wasted time and effort look at the mess you made
Now watch as you relapse till the memories fade

I grabbed the sky and it moved me along
I was a cloud, I was free
Floating along the blue skies
Bringing  awe to a beautiful horizon
Until we kiss the sky again

She is my want so much I need
Her eyes I'm locked anyone can see
You hypnotize me pendulum swing
My hearts in a fight like it entered the ring
But that's ok it's alright I've got plenty that you're going to like
All I'm asking is for a chance and s little respect
Instead I'm at the table with appetizers ready to pay the check
