Magnets.
We argue with our heads held high I guess that’s what happens when you’ve learned never to discuss your feelings You’d rather be wrong and hold on to your pride Then to admit that there is more to it inside That’s why I’ve learned to let go of people that don’t want to be around Stubborn people aren’t compatible with each other Like two...

I saw your name.
I saw your name on a paper, folded through the middle Had to do a double-take and squint my eyes a liitle To realize it was all in my head The page that bore your name instead Displayed the name of a car dealership in south bay So I disregarded it, decided against throwing it away. There it laid, on the fire escape down the hall I thought it wouldn’t affect me at all That is,...

In my head.
I don’t like what I see when I look at my reflections Reflected in true colors, Showing mine without looking inside. I’m very self concious in an unconscious way. It gets in the way more then often To tell you the truth, I think I stress myself out More than anything in specific I just don’t like the person who stares back at me from the mirror in the bathroom ...

Truth.
Love is supposed to be selfless If this is true then I’ve never been in love My loving has been nothing but selfish A man is supposed to keep his word If this is true then I’m less than male There’s no credibility in the things I’ve promised. A real friend is always there If this is true then I’m very fake These severed ties are a testament of my lack...

Fighting.
I used to think I had the fight in me Though in retrospect, It must’ve been the Bud light in me I’m finding it harder every day To fight the demons and the things they say Fight off memories, in my head they play It’s getting harder to keep these things at bay I wouldn’t say I’m weak… Out loud, at least I’d say I’m tired, tired of...

What if?
What if. Two words that constantly have me dwelling on the past Thinking back to the forks in the road that lead me here I wonder how many wrong turns Ive taken blindly It’s the feeling of “what if” that binds me To the errors I wish I could’ve corrected in that instance It keeps me from sleeping while the task seems so easy to the rest I spent so many nights...

The life I borrowed.
I’m living on borrowed time// keep forgetting this life ain’t mine// it makes you feel insignificant,// a small asterisk in such a vast timeline// one day I’ll decompose// worms and maggots will eat up my skin, my clothes// it’s a pretty bleak outlook, I know// pessimissim is one of my biggest foes// I can’t help it, death seems to be lurking// I know he’s...

Just for you.
I won’t write about girls for you anymore// this artform is being drowned by sappy metaphors// aimed at some of the silliest whores// whose charm somehow sway our opinions// I tell you, it’s an obvious dominion// then you got the ones who are worth the verses// future lawyers, teachers, & nurses// but even an honest living// doesn’t equal a heart that’s giving// beauty...

Somethings are better left unsaid// before I opened my mouth// I should’ve thought it through// But there’s something about you// That made the words wanna spew// But somethings are better left unsaid// See, something went wrong in my head// because I could’ve sworn it was on lock// Must’ve been the metronome from my mental clock// That made me so sure that my feelings I...

Bathroom Confessionals.
I’ve got too much to say to not let it out once in a while// motivated by the wicked, the corrupt, & the vile// through all my trials and tribulations I’ve evolved my voice with style// to carry my worries and sorrows, maybe the load will feel lighter// and when I get over the obstacles being thrown at me I’ll start being regarded as a fighter// the grip I have on life,...

Quit Lying.
You need to quit lying// I can see it seep through your teeth// if those lies had a color I bet they’d be black// and I bet if you saw it you’d be quick to take them back// no one asked you to fib// to make up stories about how hectic you live// to make up excuses for your absense// I’ve gotten used to the lack of your presense// I only asked for one thing// for you to be the...

Shit's Tight.
I just wanna write… I wanna let this take flight, Keep flowin till it gets bright, Keep writing till it feels right, Have my homies saying, ‘Shit’s TIGHT!’ I might be struggling But the struggle is the potent fuel That drives me to make these lyrical jewels If it’s not your fuel, my friend, you’re one of many fools You really think you’ll win if you keep playing by these rules? There are...

No ideas original. There’s nothing new under the sun. It’s never what you do but how it’s done.
