"waitin" poems
I feel like a friend-- a true friend, is more than a profile on a website. And peace is more than a handshake agreement brought by the outcome of a gruesome fight. I know that self worth is more than someone's opinion, and in no other dominion but mine own to foster and care for.   And I can see that happiness is more than having money, sure, cause most of us laugh everyday here, and come on, we're dirt poor. And I pray the human soul is more than Casper's counterpart, somewhere between the heart and the pancreas. And God, faith is so much more than cryin' and dyin' over spilt milk between religions. And in case you were confused, "I love you", is more than pet names, bed games, and *** Music is more than pimps, hoes, and MTV Shows, and T-Pain singin through a computer. Believe that life is more than grades and degrees, or drugs and disease, or the 'ABCs' of success that some old man wrote a thousand years ago. This poem has to be more than words strewn together to voice my discontent at the status-quo.. Hell, the word "more" itself is more than a one-syllable statment that what we lack in the present is just a larger quantity of the **** "we already have", and no! The power of your silent agreement is more than that of my voice alone, so... What is "more"? In many ways, "more" is the friend you never had. More peace in the world would end all the mindless bloodshed. More respect and selfworth would bring beauty back to youth, especially to the women in the world, that sell their unique souls to look like the cover of Cosmo. More faith, that grants serenity in the times of hardship, will be the soothing hand of an Angel on our shoulders as we say, "I love you" to our enemies, martyrs for a better world. More positive music will inspire us, to be the change we want to see in the world, today, instead of, "Waitin' on the World to Change "♫ ♪ ♫♪ So ladies and gentlemen, make a decision: if you want to be critics and vipers, war mongers and hope-snipers, ignore my intention, and live with more division. But, if any of you are artists starving for meaning and inspiration, if you envision a world of more than... THIS... Then let a word change a feeling, change a thought, change a meaning, change your mind... And get more out of life.

I've gotta knife in my hand, My life's dissolving like sand, I don't know what imma do this time, I'm just waitin for the bells from heaven to chime, I put the knife to my wrist, I wanna restrain but the knife is saying "no I insist", I wanna close it, But he's my bestfriend and everyone knows it, My arm shows it, I have one chance and I'm about to blow it, Drip drip drip the blood flows out of the slit, I can't stop.... Oh ****

Bestfriend
BY ARCASSIN BURNHAM waitin for the mornin to open its eyes, Shes waitin for me, but dosent know that dawn has found me, she mocks the sun, your ignorance is a bliss, one step from a kiss, i guess i should have known better, so beautiful as love itsself, But inside, evil as sin, when, when will the morning come, love aint going anywhere, im always here.

When the music's over When the music's over, yeah When the music's over Turn out the lights Turn out the lights Turn out the lights, yeah When the music's over When the music's over When the music's over Turn out the lights Turn out the lights Turn out the lights For the music is your special friend Dance on fire as it intends Music is your only friend Until the end Until the end Until the end Cancel my subscription to the Resurrection Send my credentials to the House of Detention I got some friends inside The face in the mirror won't stop The girl in the window won't drop A feast of friends "Alive!" she cried Waitin' for me Outside! Before I sink Into the big sleep I want to hear I want to hear The scream of the butterfly Come back, baby Back into my arm We're gettin' tired of hangin' around Waitin' around with our heads to the ground I hear a very gentle sound Very near yet very far Very soft, yeah, very clear Come today, come today What have they done to the earth? What have they done to our fair sister? Ravaged and plundered and ripped her and bit her Stuck her with knives in the side of the dawn And tied her with fences and dragged her down I hear a very gentle sound With your ear down to the ground We want the world and we want it... We want the world and we want it... Now Now? Now! Persian night, babe See the light, babe Save us! Jesus! Save us! So when the music's over When the music's over, yeah When the music's over Turn out the lights Turn out the lights Turn out the lights Well the music is your special friend Dance on fire as it intends Music is your only friend Until the end Until the end Until the end!

Erotica Epitome
I run a dotted line around this block, traces of me are everywhere though they are hidden under the footsteps of 100 feet stamping my poor identity in to the ground. C'mon, You know me. You've seen my face many a times I'm the one with the earbuds in smokin' the cigarette strolling through the park, And the one with the white collar sittin' at the bus stop waitin' to start another Tuesday. I'm the one with the fist in the air and a joint between my lips at the rock show. You know me. Maybe you haven't seen me because you just look right through me every time you walk past me. I am just another face in your daily grind, Not even a familiar smile or a friendly display Just eyes, a mouth and a nose placed in contemporary fashion to give enough background color for your masterpiece painting. How thoughtful, You're really using just one piece of me.

*Remember Jerry 'cross the street? He never said much But I've placed my life in his hands Time and time again He's no longer a boy, Ma But I don't know how to say He'll never be a man And Thomas, who stayed with us last summer He was part of my squad Was as straight-laced as ever But we were knee-deep in wickedness I hope he met God And Andy was my partner Always making me feel small So I had a man's resentment for him But he was truly very kind Putting my safety first Because he left me behind to re-wrap my bandages to stop my stump from bleeding, right? Oh, and we fought see, my pride was hurt I was no pantywaist, I still had a leg But he just laughed, said he'd come back so, I've been lying in bed alert 'cause I'm still waitin' for that man lying face-down in the dirt But Ma, I'm coming back to Canada And I only want you cryin' happy tears But know that I won't visit our little town Not for a long, long while And maybe never our street Not that home-road of the twelve ambitious young men and little Peter, sneaking into the bustle While only fifteen Mother, please believe me I love Newfoundland But I'm heading over to Alberta So try to pretend I'm fully gone as well Please don't tell ~ the only one to survive the shell was your boy who's gone through hell I hope the rest were sent to heaven.*

Mother, keep this letter quiet.
just like a rainbow cast over stormy seas, you shined your light and it just surrounded me, illuminating life's pure beauty, earth and seas, and stones and trees, and birds and bees, i stumbled bumbled right off your buzz, your honey kiss, sweet sticky lips cant get enough, and i know im not falling in love, i dont fall down, not when you're around, im rising up up up, just like a light inside of crystal caves, the more i watch you the more the darkness fades, and i let your sweet voice lead the way, it leaves me dazed for days, maybe its infatuation, caused by recent separation, my situation's even testin my own patience, now im sittin waitin, for some kind of new creation, im blamin' fate and, i find im hatin', way too much and way too often, need new touch, escape this coffin, my heart is stoppin, and surely droppin i miss your fresh perspective, smart and consciously selective, perfectly hectic, thats how i expect it, and i know im not falling in love, i dont fall down, not when you're around, im rising up

[Verse 1: MGK] Every day I, wake up, to the same **** In the same house, with the same bricks In the same clothes, with the same kicks I might as well be in jail Caged in, stairin' at the wall waitin' for a change but Dad telling me I gotta get a job Couldn't pay the bills so the lights turned off Them Cleveland boys got it hard Oh my god, we been living like this too long Just to lose it all in a week My people too strong Get it? Me and my boys be gone Puffing on **** like this the lawn Me and my boys tired of being here That is why we gone They say we wouldn't amount to nothing, huh? Y’all thought we was bluffing, huh? Fought every temptation **** I guess I’m David Ruffin huh? Nowadays, we don’t gotta do that dirt, tell my boys they good And nowadays my little girl won’t have to work, moved her out the hood Look man, I done been through it all, and I’ma ****** if I got this far And if I let them strip me of this message let these haters take my heart This for the ones that had it hard, the ones like me, the underdogs This for the ones that waited for them clouds to fall, please god let it [Hook] You can't see my tears, in the rain Underneath it all, we’re just the same, same, same You can't see my tears, in the rain All around the world it’s just the same, same, same You can't see my tears, in the rain So I let it rain [Verse 2] And they mad that I made it out the city But if you look I'm still out in the city Before everything I had clout in the city Two other states and never bounced on the city Shout out to everybody that’s proud in the city Everybody cheering in the crowd from the city Everyone that never had doubts in the city Cause they know I represent what we about in the city And I’m still laced up, tell the world that’s nothing changed Till it’s hundred dollar bills in my pocket, then nothings change If my team ain't with me, then I don’t wanna thang, tell them I'll go broke before I run out on my gang EST over everything 100 thousand plus, cult fan base yea that is us, my songs tattooed on they body troubled youth, we bad as **** and what?

Lord oh sweet Lord, why You gon' n' chain me to this porcelain throne. (Got me missin' drunken uncle's racist rants, 500 pound aunt's heavy pants, grandpa's yellin' 'cause he can't hear...) Stuck on the worse of toilet seats while the family gorges itself n' eats. (grandma starin' in all out fear at cousin's piercin's n' tattoos, sister rollin' eyes at decrepit views...) No tattered paperback nor newspaper fo' me to read, big o' slab of turkey n' p'tatoes waitin' fo' me to feed. (mum been sweatin' in the kitchen dad been swearin' 'bout religion, lonely neighbor chuggin' nog...) Here I am Lord, when will I get out? food's gettin' colder n' I'd love to stuff my snout. (little ones outside pettin' the dog, others discussin' St. Nick, knockin' on the bathroom door for a trick.) Lord oh sweet Lord, how will I survive? You left no clues. Instead, You come n' given me the Christmas toilet blues.

Traveling, just rambling along on this lonely old road All my life, on this journey of mine; I've been carryin' a heavy load Still contemplating on my last trip, my mind's already full People can say, this life got my ***** to the wall Can't stop livin' this life, already miss my ***** My baby waiting at home, can't sleep on the wheel, or I'll end up in the ditch Hittin' seventy five, hopped on speed Singin' along with the radio, wishin' I had some more creed To look forward to a better life,but nothing can beat this Me and my rig, can you dig this Highway is a playground, this truck is my toy Back home, there who waits for me is my little boy Trucker hats, cop sunglasses, even a mullet can make it a full redneck gear Can't recall the last time I took some time off, must have been like 10 years Screaming past rural towns, honking at hot chicks in fast cars Every night, I'm a stranger at a run down bar Just lookin' at the pictures in my wallet To give up all this, hell no, I rather eat a bullet My baby, my dog, and my little boy's waitin' for me Freedom is my highway, this rig is my guiding light for me HELL YEA!!

Trucker's Anthem!!!
Take your quill and pen some notes Love lyrics in melody  Songs of passion and romance Write them, love, just for me Strike a chord, hum a note Give the words music sweet Make my heart go flutterin' tappin' Sweep me off my feet Then sing them baby like you do But sing them soft and low Don't pitch a note too high, my love For off key you do go Clear your throat and gargle Then sing a pretty tune  Drink some honey lemon tea Then smoothly you might croon My hearts a buzz with throbbin' romance But then it goes off course Your love notes go all awry, sorry And you my love sound hoarse So sing me a love song baby Try not to go off key I'll waltz into your waitin' arms  Love- dancin' you and me

Sing me a love song baby
Bobbin my head to Public Enemy Lookin' like a misfit Chuck D Sittin' in the corner  clickin' keys Drinkin' honey green leaf, not coffee Not the normal old dude in a coffee shop Shakin' his head to old school hip hop Writin'  poetry and he just can't stop Hope the baristas don't call da cops Soon be closin' time in dis five and dime Kicked to the curb, but I'll be fine Got my tea, my raps, and my rhymes They killed the wifi, coulda lost lines Waiten' for my daughter outside dance But I'm da one jamin' out my pants Refusing to listen to dance moms' rants Bein me, that's always my stance

Waitin Like a Capital G
I spoke to your Guardian Angel, He Said you were doin' just great, He said I could visit you sometime, But I can't seem to fit through the gate. I want you to know I miss you, I think of you a lot, But since you're not here With me, my dear, There are lots of things, I'm not. I'm not out there workin the corner Leanin against the wall Waitin for cash, fixin the ash, On a pipe I'll smoke in a hall. I'm not dope-sick and pukin out on the porch floor, Worried how long till you come through the door. I'm sorry I couldn't have stopped you I admit, I didn't try hard, I wasn't aware when you left me there, Death was waiting downstairs, in a car. I know now I couldn't have stopped you, Or even have made you wait, Destiny knocked on the door that night, And told you, You couldn't be late. I spoke to your Guardian Angel, He said I could stop in my mind, Blaming myself, Or anyone else, You were part of God's plan The whole time.
