Actors on the stage

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fBnhRzKcfF8 Searching for fortune and fame Lost in an eternal dayz, we’re all but actors on the stage Dancing with no shame to the tune of our DNA against the rain My fuel is the pain, stuck in this game searching for fortune and fame Elevated with no boundaries to name as I peer through my window pane Helpless I remain with every attempt to never change in this dirty game Running out of options, I’m held hostage to the role I must play on stage Destiny and fate intertwine like these words I use on the page to elevate Higher than a cloud when I wake n bake, captivated by thoughts...

~Perfectly Flawed~

The imperfections I hold in me can be seen anytime physically. Look to my flesh to get a glimpse of what I’ve been tested with. Look in my soul to know where I've gone when away from home. Mistakes came with me as I experienced this life in unknown territory. Inside my chest beats the heart of a man poetically inclined mentally. Creation was my key to survive with my soul alive within the passage of time. To escape the confines of an early grave dead with my body still alive. I had to breathe with my ink in order for me to never become extinct. The evidence of my entirety can be witnessed entirely poetically. My perfection is keen as my ink...

~Sweep Me Away~

Music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ReCwq2hLook Sweep me away from yesterday’s pain Lord, take the license plate to my soul Witness me as I grow as my flesh ages old No story can ever be told without the scars you hold Now I know what tomorrow had to teach to me My mother could never preach experience to me My father brought me to water but I never took a drink I had to grow into the man I'm destined to become Fear grew less a part of me as I grew into eternity Sweep me away from the pain I felt from yesterday Let the pen in my hand take me to a cloud called nine Because tomorrow isn't promised in time; we all gotta die So today when I wake;...

~The Price~

Music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWsOUYgCmqA We pay the price for the all the smiles & tears We pay for the time we were here, for the times we weren’t near Things are never really clear; we pay when we veer the line Like a feeling in your spine, we pay the price with our lives Every time we live and die we pay the price with our time Words never surface in time to express what’s on your mind Like the girl who never knew just how sublime she was to his eyes We pay the price like white on rice; life and death really coincide Merge my words with my life, they describe my existence inside But I pay the price with every written line, Words fail to reverse time As we wake we vacate our dreams with desires to spend time wisely But time has shown that we can’t grow unless we pay for experience We...

~City Of Stars~

Music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v3Rmio7BdTM City of stars, who is it that we really are? Questions of the mind, running forever through time. Nearing the present future with every passing light. I live on this carnival ride alive, the fear brings me to life.  Present me with clarification at the cost of total uncertainty. Will I survive through this night, will I awaken, and can I see the light? Feelings keep on surfacing inside, is there a purpose for the hurting? The pain always goes away when we let ecstasy pave our lanes. Trapped like slaves, mice lost in a maze, smoking sticky haze. Erase what was forgotten only to then remember...

~Deeper Alive~

Deeper without time, deeper as we begin to climb Align our spines, Peel back & find, true meaning in our lives Eternal and sublime, pain is really just our spotlight  High like a kite, low like we on Jose Cuervo tonight Fight to spike our pulse, we strike like lightning bolts Watch as we volt towards what provokes our desires Dream tonight, live & die, expire at the same damn time  We need a pacemaker for our minds to bring us truly alive Mummified alive, I awaken with a curse to find my third eye Witness discovery in it’s prime, we use our youth only to rise Hide me away; the police could come at any time of day Make me safe...

Am I Your Stranger??

Am I your stranger, Did I come here by surprise? to your eyes, am I another man yet to be uncovered what could you discover if you only took the time? would you judge me because I am not your brother? am I a person you'd deny, would you pass me by without a second thought in your mind? If I died tonight on the pavement would you pray for my soul to escape to a haven in the skies? or would you label another statistic in this deadly life? would it ever cross your mind that our soldiers die time after time over superficial lines and religious divides. Why is the question no one seems to put in their minds... How different are we all when we...
