5 A.M.

I wanna wake up next to you and have those early morning conversations, you know the ones when we repeat our life’s affirmations, I want to be next to you as you sleep and be lucky enough to breathe your air, I want you to wake up and catch me in a stare, I want to be your dragon Slayer you know I’m right there, I want this moment to always reset and repeat, the only thing I want to change is the sheets, you made me want to land the jet, you made me have memories I could never forget, you turned a boy into a man and for that reason I will always hold your hand

WHERE IM AT WITH IT

Im at war with God trying to rewrite his words he says one thing I do what I prefer, fork in the road I go straight; at least that way it’s a 50/50 fate, I have more victories than I have losses, I can politic with the masses and converse with bosses; but that’s the part I’m trying to rewrite I’m trying to get them all to see they’re bosses in their own rite, I hope my words reach someone and inspires them to be better than I have, if I made it through they can definitely withstand the wrath, keep your head up redemption is closer than you think, keep your head up no matter what you can’t sink, keep your head up never hit the ground, keep your head up you can’t tip the crown, keep your head up the babies looking up, keep your head up, it’s a half full cup

COULD A SHOULD A WOULD A

The past is the past let that shit die, it is what it is stop asking why, for every great day it has to be an antithesis, for you not to believe in that is just ridiculous, things don’t always work out some plans are made to fail, if everybody got into heaven it wouldn’t be a need for a hell, people die everyday from stray rounds, and some people cry out for help and we turn away pretending not to hear the sound, the world we live in is a messed up place, case in point the good people usually finish last in the race, we can smile and continue to pretend, or we can free our minds become something else and transcend

VOL. 2

They want me to talk about bodies they want me to talk about drugs, how is this poems from the trap but all you talk about is love?, I had to reel em in first and get their attention, in Vol. 2 I’m going to write about everything you just mentioned and how to Dominique Dawes your money to ascension, stay away from detention, step lite around contention, avoid your name being mentioned through the grapevine, tell you how to react when it’s ape time, been there done it, no 50/50 if you in it gotta be a hundred, but make sure you really wanna run it, take the good with the bad, and subsequently your kids might end up without a dad

MOMMA TOLD ME

They said it was supposed to hurt at the end I look around and see no family nor friend, I can’t believe the wolves got me heaven or hell I’ll be waiting for whoever shot me, I remember a flash of fire a voice saying it’s time to retire, I was fighting you know I shot back but they flanked me and hit me in my back, they would be organized when they came at me, I wasn’t ready they beat the cameras I couldn’t see, I still was thinking that I could defend my home until that second one hit me in the collar bone, I dropped the hand of God that’s when I knew it was over, only thing that could save me now is a swat team or a four leaf clover, I might don’t make it running threw my head then everything my mother ever said, I really think I should have listened, now Im covered in blood about to be missing, my babies whole life ran through my head I should have been a soccer dad instead, it’s still better than jail or a jury trial, with my last everything I picked up the phone to dial, you gotta be kidding me, no signal; got damn Sprint, with my last breath I started to repent

JULY 31ST

You are forever in my heart and your always on my mind, I pray every morning so we’ll be just fine, this kind of love I don’t think can be measured, being your father is my absolute pleasure, last time I saw you, you blinked fixed your eyes on me and smiled, I can’t explain the euphoria I got from holding my child, my gift from God received on July 31st, I’ve been a different man ever since your birth, I made a promise to you and I intend to stay true to my word, I’m just trying to be the father that you deserve, forever in my heart and your always on my mind, I pray every morning so we’ll be just fine

7🌞31

Got all these tats just to see if I still bleed, dont smoke anymore they took the place of the trees,
all the  bullshit  in my life young me supersedes, my super hero from my super seed, call daddy I’ll be there with super speed,
anything I have is yours; true  indeed, tryna better my life so by example I can lead, on the back of my arm forever will be our creed

SAY IT AIN’T SO

Word on the street is that you’re leaving me, I know that can’t be true baby believe in me, what have I done to bring us here? Don’t over correct let me steer, darling what would my life be like if you weren’t near, a little selfish I know, but I promise you I’m not doing you wrong when I’m on the go, I’m trying to illuminate our future and ease on down the road, I swear it was a lie told, if you knew what was on my mind this would be a mute conversation, I think it’s jealousy that put a battery in your back to fuel your emancipation
