In life we encounter many people, and emotions to overcome or in fact deal with. We look at others
and feel they could never know the things we have gone through! The fact of the matter in most cases
we’re all the same!

Walk a Mile In My Shoes
Feelings Trapped Inside
There is a feeling that I have deep down inside
That makes me laugh when I really need to cry
When the tears just won’t form the only thing to do
Is come here on Face book and share my thoughts with you
I rarely find it hard to write what's on my mind
Normally when I do this it comes out in a rhythm
How this comes to be I really don't know
Maybe I’m not writing from my mind but from deep within my soul
Not everyone can share his or her inner most thought
Though if they learned to do so it could help them a lot
It's really not wise to keep feelings trapped inside
Sooner or later you'll explode and people could die
Within My mind
Each day brings us closer together then we were before
Is it because of this that our love has grown more?
There is an everlasting glow about you every time you smile
That seems to be relaxing like a passing cloud
No we don't need to have sex in order for our love too remain
We just share our feelings, our thoughts, and other simple things
We even go out at times to two separate clubs
Before the sun rises’ we are back to our love
We don't cheat on each other and people find that hard to believe
Because our desires are satisfied as well as our needs
A relationship like ours is so very hard to find
This is how I think of us deep with in my mind
My Son Hykeem
I've missed a lot of things in your life that I know I shouldn't have missed
I haven't taken you fishing or even seen you catch your first fish
A lot of things were going on in my life even still that's not an excuse
I realize now I should have put it on hold and focused more on you
You can forgive me if you choose too but don't ever forget how you felt those years
Cause by remembering you will insure the cycle won't repeat amongst your kids
You and I have a lot of catching up to do getting to know each other again
Know that I will be your father first but most importantly I am also your friend
Seeing you at your grandmothers made me feel good inside
There is a lot of me in you an I can see it in your eyes
Although things are rough and hard now the best is yet to come
Contrary to what you may believe I'm proud to have you as my son
You have already hit your bottom, so now your destined to do great things
Look at Malcolm X when he was younger now he's remembered like Martin Luther King
No matter what it is you’re going through hold your head up high
An answer every question with truth while looking them straight in the eyes
If nothing else you'll gain that persons respect no matter good or bad
That was something that was told to me from your Pap pa AKA my dad
I love you Hykeem don't ever forget this no matter what’s going on in your life
Take thing one day at a time there’s no doubt in my mind that things will be alright
Marchelle
Maybe I was seeing something that wasn't really there
And maybe it was a waste, all that time we shared
Replace my heart with a piece of coal and bury it in a park
Crazy to think I would fight for love that keeps pushing us apart
How did this happen after years of being so set on being cold
Ending the first time I seen your eyes like a fairy tale had unfold
Live, laugh, and love was three new things in my life
Little did I know all this had a very high price
Evidently now it has come to an end and it is what it is
Sometimes love must be let go to get what you give
What's Civil Rights
The rights guaranteed to U.S. citizens and residents by legislation and by the Constitution.
Civil rights protected by the Constitution include freedom from types of discrimination.
An individual's personal choices are protected by the freedoms to choose personal activities
Saying citizens have the right to express their self; and to preserve their personal privacy.
Not all types of discrimination are unlawful it seems, if you look at the Trayvon case
The right to stand your ground law turned out to be a big mistake
Discrimination in some way or form is always going to exist
Something as simple as a hoodie is a prime example of this
Practice of personal prejudices of an individual interferes with the protected rights of others.
This is discrimination that interferes with the protected rights of others and is unlawful
No state can remove or abridge rights that are guaranteed by the Constitution.
So tell me how Zimmerman went to trial but still eluded conviction
Once again we’ll march on Washington to protest what’s not right
It seems the issue of equality somehow continues to cause strife
Civil Rights cover the basis of race, color, religion, sex, and other things
But this is just the foundation of Dr. Martin Luther King’s dream.
I Appreciate Thickness
Everyone has that something that they can really appreciate
From a gory scary movie to the view of a landscape
Some people enjoy the art and skill that sculptures put into clay
Others just enjoy the story plot unfolded in a play
But I enjoy the simple things that don’t come from finesse
For me it’s a women and I appreciate thickness
Top heavy bottom heavy but petite in between
The clothes don't even have to come off and it still looks good to me
Nice and firm up top round and soft belo
That way everything stays in the same place when they take of their clothes
I like to see women in a form fitting dress
Oh yeah that’s what I'm talking about I appreciate thickness
Not Anymore
Before the sun rise or the rooster crows and the stars fall from the sky
The night holds us in the depth of her womb creating secrets to bring too light
All the while we're creating them we smile because we're living life to the fullest
You know how it began you turned a stranger to a friend then shortly get affectionate
Searching for something that is lacking in your life although it seems wrong it feels so right
Maybe you had an argument that made you lose sight or even lonely cause they're out of your life
But the not having to hint nor ask or plead for that feeling you felt once before
It’s like we just give everything and get nothing in return but no not anymore
They were together in the roughest of times he held her up while she held him down
Mentally and emotionally they were as one like dirt and grass on the ground
Everyone that seen these two together agreed that they make a good pair
Some even speculate that they'll be getting married in a couple years
Behind closed doors when tempers roar do you know what they argue about?
The sexual needs between the two just doesn't seem to be working out
They try to change until they seemed like sex became a chore
I thought they would always be together but no not anymore
I've noticed what we do to get someone somewhere down the road fades away
In retrospect it could be that one little thing that causes your love too stray
Life is so full of choices that govern the course or path we make
All it takes is one bad choice to have your smile erased
Everything isn’t about just us most times we most think of others
You get what you give is now how I live so go an run for cover
Say what you mean and mean what you say is what I always implore
Cause when love turns to tear from bitterness or fear it will grow not anymore
Believe
Before I get started let me say I haven't lost my mind
I haven't gone crazy nor done drugs in a long time
Even saying all of this you'll still find it hard to believe
I know I did when out of nowhere this appeared to me
I needed to clear my head this morning personalities broke my sleep
Sometimes salt water calms them down so I headed to the beach
Miles and miles of sand with water rippling a shore
Not another soul around who could ask for more
I don't know why I'm telling you this I know you won’t believe it
Cause I still find it hard to believe and I'm the one who seen this
Any way after a mile of walking everyone calms down
But off in the distance barely in the water I seen something moving around
I thought I was the only one out here I guess I thought wrong
As I'm looking at it I say to myself I think my mind is gone
The closer I get the slower I step cause I really can't believe my eyes
Everyone in my head said what is that there but I wasn't sure how to reply
I don't know why I’m telling you this I know you won’t believe it
Cause I still find it hard to believe and I'm the one who seen this
Finally I get close enough to make out a real big fish
I'm talking the size of a shark and I wasn't trying to get bi
Evil E pointed out to me that this fish had hair
What in the world kind of fish is that whatever it is it's rare
Then all of a sudden the tail went in the air and it turned and looked at me
The first thing that came to mind was I was just having a dream
I don't know why I'm telling you this I know you won’t believe it
Cause I still find it hard to believe and I'm the one who seen this
I pulled my phone out an took a picture cause with this I’m a get paid
The first one ever to photograph an actual living mermaid
That's right I said a mermaid an I knew you wouldn't believe me
Just taking in the sun while lying on the beach
She looked me in the eyes and smiled but didn't say a thing
I was so amazed at this beauty I was seeing
I don't know why I’m telling you this I know you won’t believe it
Cause I still find it hard to believe and I'm the one who seen this
But just in case your doubting me I know what you want to see
Look at the picture below then say I now believe
Stupid Mess
The other day I had an interview for a job I probably won't get
For some strange reason I keep forgetting I'm allergic to stupid mess
This man called and said he found my resume online and my skills fit his need
So we set up an interview for a formal meet and greet
Early I was about fifth teen minutes trying to set a good appearance
A half hour later he comes strolling in talking about can you wait about ten minutes?
Now even though I have a smile on my face my mind is saying this
You’re the one that set the time here comes some stupid mess
I'm thinking this is so unprofessional but I already waited this long
Yes I'll stick around a bit just too see what’s really going on
Finally he calls me in for this interview but he wasn't in the least prepared
Mind you this was set up last week it wasn't something just pulled out the air
He asked me what kind of work am I currently doing and I quoted my resume
Oh yeah he said I see that here with a look like he was amazed
Did you feel out an application yes as you requested I've done it online
He started to explain the position to me and I said that sounds fine
He tried to explain the pay with excitement and I gave him a look he won’t forget
No I wasn’t trying to be ignorant I'm just allergic too stupid mess
Listen if I'm already making x amount of dollars how can you offer me less
Trying to make it sound like your handing out gold and don’t even have a benefit package
You may think I’m not the sharpest knife in the drawer so let me say this to you
Settling for less than I am getting now isn't something I'm willing to do
I told you what I was making when we talked on the phone before we scheduled this
But it seems to me that wasting people’s time is a practice of your business
Our time was the top of the hour but almost a half hour later we begin
No sorry I was in a meeting no type of apology nor explanation
But I thank you for wasting my time and gas this has been an experience
Oh, I'm no longer interested in your job I'm allergic too stupid mess
Make you say yes
Everyone has a limit to what they are willing to do
No one can make you change your mind like it's a golden rule
I'm not coming over I'm out with my friends is probably what you say
Hanging out late without your love is supposed to be okay
Or when it comes to sex acts some are pushed out of your mind
No, that’s nasty or no that shit hurts are a couple of famous lines
In short there are limits that you haven’t crossed yet
Some day you will find that good sex will make you say yes
It will make most of your limits will run out the door
Put you right to sleep instead of you looking for more
Not saying that the sex is so good it makes you suck your thumb
I'm talking it's so good your legs tremble long after your done
I am here to tell you there is something you haven't experienced yet
Once you do you'll realize that good sex will make you say yes
I know your saying that I’m crazy you even think that I’m a fool
But get a taste of good sex and watch what it can do
It doesn't matter what's your sex the result will be the same
In hopes that you can get some more you'll be open to some change
You'll watch lifetime with your girl where you normally hit the bar
And ladies while he's watching these shows he's holding you in his arms
A lot to please a man is not really what it takes
If you can give your women good sex she may try an reciprocate
See limits aren't engraved in stone there just things we choose not to do
Though s of you that by chance have had some good sex know that it's the truth
Union Meeting
Last night I had a union meeting with everyone in my head
It lasted about two hours but in short this is what was said
You already know why I asked you all here so let's just cut through the chase
I don't know what's going on but I got this bitter taste
I don't know who’s putting all this sugar in the tea but you better cut it out
In the freezer theirs three big cups of tea what’s that all about
Who in the world turned the AC on down to sixty degrees
I had it set on eighty I suggest you leave it be
All those dishes in the dish rack if they're clean put them away
Why do I have to do this stuff each and every day
Who took a piss this morning an didn't bother to flush
Oh no one’s got an answer? There’s no one here but us
Whoever is supposed to check the mail does it more than once a month
I bet you would check it every day if something was coming that you want
Some of you need to find a job since you have all of this free time
I come home and the TV's all loud like you done lost your mind
That’s right we got to make some changes before my temper trips
I'm sick and tired of all of you this doesn’t make any sense
You there Mr. Evil E do something about your moods
You’re going to get us all locked up with your bipolar attitude
All of you are supposed to be helping me with writing these poems
What happen to the inspiration lately I've got none
Not days or weeks but months have gone by and I haven't written one line
What is everyone on vacation or something or is everything in the world just fine
You had better get this brain back to work I'm not saying it any more
I can always read a book but the book I read should be yours
Oh God
All my life you have been right here
Through all the laughter, rage and tears
Even when I didn't want to go on
You were right there and you made me be strong
When life is full of darkness and I start too loose sight
You are right there with me too shed a little light
Thank you for your help, your love and support
Thank you for providing when I come up short
Thank you for allowing me to see another day
Thank you for the guidance and not letting me go astray
Your face has never been seen even though you’re always around
Still we offer you our praise beginning with the word Bismilllah
You are the most gracious, the most merciful of whom I know
The master of the Day of Judgment is you standing alone
How perfect is my lord I tell you he's the most high
You don't have to take my word just give him a try
Thank you for your help, your love and support
Thank you for providing when I come up short
Thank you for allowing me to see another day
Thank you for the guidance and not letting me go astray
You not just watch over me but also everyone I love
When you feel they can't bare anymore you call them to the heavens above
Maybe when it's my time too rise we can sit under the loke tree
Just so I can take a life time to thank you for all you've done for me
At times I feel unworthy but your always on my side
I know that’s where you are cause a few times I should have died
Thank you for your help, your love and support
Thank you for providing when I come up short
Thank you for allowing me to see another day
Thank you for the guidance and not letting me go astray
CHRONOMENTROPHOBIA
They ask how we fear something that doesn’t inflict pain
When in fact it pains us each second that time ticks away
Here it is your day off from being on the grind
It seems you should have kept on since I don't have the time
We have to work to get what we want and work too keep what we have
Love without work in a relationship will quickly come to pass
They ask how we fear something that doesn’t inflict pain
When in fact it pains us each second that time ticks away
Time sits still for no one time is made to change
Time to open my eyes an realize our time no longer remains
You don't need to be in a relationship if they can't give you your time
I realize no one wants to be less then second for things to remain fine
Time to come to grips that it's not time to reminisce
Time can't be rewound not even with a wish
Constantly looking for the time that I for some reason didn't make
Thinking you’re not going anywhere in time was obviously a mistake
They ask how we fear something that doesn’t inflict pain
When in fact it pains us each second that time will ticks away
You warned me about this time and time again but I just didn’t comply
Now that our time has come to an end there’s no need to wonder why
Show the world you love her and she will do the same
Keeping her waiting to spend time with you in its self is just a game
You’re telling her you don't care how she feels in your mind this is fine
But let her do the same to you and you'll probably lose your mind
They ask how we fear something that doesn’t inflict pain
When in fact it pains us each second that time ticks away
Will you ever be only hers or is she just wasting her time
How long is she to wait for this must stays on her mind
If given a time limit would you comply probably not
No, cause it seems like work trying to beat the clock
They ask how we fear something that doesn’t inflict pain
When in fact it pains us each second that time ticks away
Sharing the one you love somehow makes the love just fade
How can you ask this of someone if you wouldn't do the same
Let’s take a second to plant a seed just a little seed in your mind
I've heard that only aged wine begins to taste better with time
The thought of your love with someone else is something you won’t like
But that thought of you is going through their mind is supposed to be alright
Mentally, physically or even on paper in time it's all the same
Life is to short and time is running out do you understand what I am saying
They ask how we fear something that doesn’t inflict pain
When in fact it pains us each second that time will tick away
I See You
not someone I find is weak
not someone that’s bitter or sweet
simply someone that’s down to earth
straight with you even if it hurts
If you’re in need if she can she's there
that is why this poem I share
I see you even though we are far apart
Make no mistake you’re in my heart
Trouble with Me
My mother had a great deal of trouble with me but I think that she enjoyed it
There was always something going on, yeah I was a trip
I remember not long after my sister was born I started down this path
Let me tell you what I did to her this should give you a little laugh
Everywhere I went for some reason she just had to tag along
Why she has to go with me why couldn't she stay with my mom
One time after it rained I asked if I could go out to play
Guess who came out with me or do I need to say
I told her let’s make mud pies and said that they tasted great
Wasn’t until we were called in the house that I found it to be a mistake
My mom had a great deal of trouble with me but I think that she enjoyed it
Even though the most common outcome was me bending over getting my butt whipped
Remember when the teachers in DC went on strike, well I went on strike too
My mom would drop us off but I wasn't staying at the school
This went on for days then weeks before I made my mistake
I let my sister tag along now watch how It escalates
No more than two hours could have passed before my mother got a call
Sorry but do you know your daughters not in school, caused a big alarm
Frantic she left her job on the hunt to find her precious daughter
Did they say her son was missing? No! They didn’t bother
But when she got home all a wreck with tears all in her eyes
The first person she seen in the house shouldn't have been a surprise
Yeah my mom had a great deal of trouble with me but I think that she enjoyed it
She said I shouldn’t leave my sister so she can see I can be trusted
Once she went in my room one day when I was hanging outside
She found some weed I left rolled up on my bed what was on my mind
My butt was in the fire to get to the point is the least that I can say
Before my father got off work I decided to run away
I walked all the way to Gray Hound and jump up on a bus
I was going to my Aunt Margret’s house but somehow I messed up
The bus went passed my exit but I said I'll be alright
Well I was till the state trooper picked me up walking on the Pa. Turnpike
He asked me for my name and where I was going too
I told him what he wanted to know and he said I'll take you
But when we got to New Stanton he said sit right here ok
A few minutes later he returned and said so you’re a run away
My mom had a great deal of trouble with me but I think that she enjoyed it
Maybe she enjoyed it is a stretch but I know for some strange reason she won’t forget
I love you enough to let you go
Nothing has changed but this you should know
I love you enough to let you go
An I wont cry as you head out my door
I hope you find what you’re looking for
Yes, I'll think about the good times that we shared
How the time somehow just disappeared
How good you felt all in my arms
How it felt when you knew I’d cause you no harm
I'll even miss the texts when the morning comes
An the smile on your face when we have fun
A lot of things will be missed but just so you know
I love you enough to let you go
I won’t fight to keep you it will do what it does
I've fought from the beginning now it's all up too you
Don't worries we'll still be friends if that’s what you want
But things will be different I'm not going to front
Evidently I loved you more then you know
That's right, I love you enough to let you go
I Want You
I want you to take a few minutes to see how far you've come
I want you to think about the things you did when they said it couldn't be done
I want you to call up a few of your relatives the ones you only see at reunions
I want you to say that they've been on your mind, your just calling to see how there doing
I want you to call your parents and your child also grandparents if they're living
I want you to say what they haven't heard in a while, that you love and miss them
I want you to enjoy that little bundle of joy that always brightens your day
I want you to remove all that negative energy and tell them to stay away
I want you to know you’re a child of God without condition God loves you
I want you not to have any fears cause he's watching all that we do
I want you to read Psalms 40:4 when you think your out of luck
I want you to see " Blessed is that man that maketh the Lord his trust."
How It Began
Man I met this girl last night her body is off the chain
Girl I met this fine ass guy, yes fine girl I’m not playing
I had to run and talk to her and my words were just a flowing
You know he never took his eyes off mine with all this I was showing
You know I had to check to make sure she wasn't a ghetto chic
Girl I’m serious he was exploring my mind he seems so intelligent
Her voice was sounding sexy she didn't wear makeup or fake hair
Crazy cause I was just leaving the gym girl I had sweat everywhere
I think on our scale ide give her an eight but I didn't get to see her feet
I'll give him a call in a couple of days, no you better make that three
I think I'm going to take this one slow let whatever happens happen
I got to feel him out to make sure he's single before we see what’s crack in
I shot her my number a said call me first, Man yes, she's gonna call
Girl don't let me find out he was runner up at last year’s players ball
If this works out you can best believe you can have my player’s card
If this works out at least I can say I didn't meet him at a bar
I’m about too head to the house so be safe and keep it real
I’m sitting here watching lifetime some movie called Spit Fire Grill
What You Think
I thought I said in the beginning how we were going to play this game
Remember? Say what you mean and mean what you say
Then too you don't remember that's cause it seems that's not the case
You say what you think I want to hear but that's really a mistake
A relationship is built on trust an you trust in what you believe
If you can't believe the words I say, how can you trust in me
Say I said that I'll be home all night an when you came I wasn't there
You can't get me on the phone what feelings would that bare
Most of all you'll be mad as hell cause all you'll think is that I lied
Attitude will harbor, as I look into your eyes
Even if I try to explain, you'll believe what you want to believe
So tell me what the difference, if the same things done too me
Telling me something that you say you’re going to do
But in the back of your mind you know it isn't true
Have me looking for it but when it comes time
No form of contact like it just slipped your mind
Then when we do talk, I already knew
It's like it wasn't even said an everything is cool
Flip the script a minute put the shoe on the other foot
If you expect and don't receive something from me how good would that look
My Plans for You
I hear the Reaper calling you but he has to wait in line
No I don't want to kill you, just explore what's on my mind
Killings just too quick and I want you to enjoy our moment
It’s been about six months of you pissing me off, now you’re gonna know it
I have real big plans for you and I, the first plan was four weeks
A lot of blood and bruising for you, then I thought of something sweet
No need to make you bleed or even, put a bruise on you
There are a lot of other ways to inflict pain, and that's what I'm gonna do
First we'll start with a water-board technique, it takes a little finesse
A beautiful way to start the games although it will leave a mess
You don't know what I'm talking about let me paint a picture for you
Strap you too a board, dunk you under water, I think for 45 seconds will do
Over and over I'll do this again, until you beg for a break
Yeah I'll let you rest a minute or two, while I pour urine all over your face
If you should get hungry, I made you some Fese Ala king
Let me put these rubber gloves on, it’s time for your force feeding
It took me a week to make this dish, you know how many dogs I had to walk
I only have 5 pounds right here, I hope it hits the spot
Boy you’re really stinking, I think you need a bath
So back in the tub with you my friend, relax it won’t be bad
I'll drain the water out first, you see now, I can be nice
Put you and the board back in the tub then fill the tub with ice
No this will not kill you although you'll pray to be dead
The trick is think of other things, put warm thoughts in your head
I'll be back before the ice is all gone, I need to change my clothes
If you need to use the bathroom go on a head, no one will ever know
How about Judas cradle, never mind that just take too much work
Plus as the seat impales your orifice you'll bleed, and plus that hurts
Tell me do you want to sit or stand, for what is coming next
OK you can stand hands cuffed behind your back, and raised above your neck
You should have said sit, this positions kind of foul
See I am going to bed, so you'll be this way for a while
So many ways to torture you, for death you soon will pray
Get as much rest as you possibly can tomorrows a longer day
Have a Drink with Me
Have a seat, relax yourself and let me pour you a glass
Indulge in conversation and share a few laughs
This here isn't water so you better drink it slow
Let me add a cube of ice so that it's nice and cold
So tell me how have you been, what's new in your life
Well, I really can't complain nothing is causing me strife
Yes I have three kids myself only they're adults now
Seeing how well they've grown really makes me smile
When we were growing up, I didn't imagine having kids
Kind of crazy when you think about it, but I'm glad that I did
How you doing with your drink? Do you need a little chaser
Do you want it for the color, or would you like to taste her
Here you go how’s that? Did it tone it down a bit
Yeah I know it burns the chest, drink it to fast you'll be out of it
I'm waiting on my other half, she’s running a little late
Dealing with this woman is nothing short of great
I try to keep a smile on her face an she does the same for me
There she is coming through the door, I'm glad you two can meet
How you doing baby, where have you been
This is my other half, this is an old an dear friend
Let me take your jacket, relax and have a seat
Ciroc on the rocks or Misquato for your drink
No she's waiting on her husband, I figured we could share a table
Her husband just singed a recording contract with a major label
He was with a local band and is finally making it big
All his work is paying off speak of the devil here he is
Nice to meet you this is my other half, won’t you have a seat
Your wife was telling us your good news, can I offer you a drink
Now that we're all together can we eat cause I am starved
Seriously I am so hungry I could probably eat a car
Everyone drink okay? What do you mean what about me
I've done a lot in my past so now I really don't drink
My Funerals Poem
As I stop to look at the foot steps in the sand
I ask the other set when they plan to lend a hand
No reply was given not even a sign was shown
Yes there are two sets of footsteps in the sand but I am alone
I've heard the grass is greener, on the other side
Well I've crossed the river twice an let me tell you that's a lie
I have been so many places and I've done so many things
Been in love with a lot of women that ripped my heart from me
Then there are the women that somehow remained my friend
A friendly note from time to time and a picture now and then
Although we didn't hang out you still mean a lot to me
Cause the time we were together wasn't a waste just wasn't meant to be
Now as I look at these footsteps I notice there is one set of prints
No, I'm not alone anymore, I'm being carried into the mist
As I look around at your faces I beg of you not to cry
I'm not feeling no pain anymore every things gonna be fine
My eyes aren't on the sparrow cause he tried to bring me back
I've been ready to be with my father in the heavens what’s better than that
My new house has been built by a famous carpenter know to you as Jesus
In front I have cathedral doors I can't wait for you to see this
In my yard, the grass is ever so green and very soft to the touch
All I can do is stand here and smile cause I like it so much
In the distance I here this music playing it sounds a bit like Jazz
My address is 3669 Golden Gate drive, feel free to stop on passed
I'm gonna have to go now they are having a party for me
Everyone is here looking good, Relatives who passed before me
No there is no need to cry, it's time to celebrate
Wow a lion and a lamb are under my tree sleeping like they are mates
Let’s all stand as they take me outside
I get to lay in a limo for my final ride
Just so you know, someone was slipping
At the house there is no Mumbo sauce for the chicken
I know you'll miss me and I love you all too
Remember here in heaven we are watching over you
I Love My Steelers
The Pittsburgh Steelers are a professional football team based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
They have fans everywhere known as Steeler Nation, and they show up when they are playing
The team currently belongs to the North Division of the American Football Conference in the National Football
League
The Steelers were founded by Art Rooney, as the Pittsburgh Pirates on July 8, 1933
They've played in and hosted more conference championship games than any other AFC or NFC team.
No we didn't make it this year but that's alright with me
I am a die-hard Steeler fan and never will I jump ship
That's right, I bleed black and gold, Steeler nations not a myth
The Steelers share the record for most Super Bowl appearances with the Cowboys
Did you see how they got scalped by those Indians? Boy oh boy oh boy
The ownership of the Steelers has remained within the Rooney's since its founding
Every home game in the biggest Luxury Suite, Mr. Rooney's there with his family
The stadium Three Rivers Stadium which hosted the Steelers for 31 seasons was replaced
Now they host here at Heinz Field, I just love what they've done with the place
To start twelve thousand tons of steel was used too forms this iron curtain
This horse shaped stadium has a beautiful view of the city that's surrounding
Two hundred and seventy-five locker spread through four locker room just for players gear
I forgot to mention University of Pittsburgh's Panthers also host right here
Over sixty five thousand seats and TVs all over the place, four hundred to be exact linked to the main score
board
Seven passenger elevators, five escalators and four ramps to get between each floor
But it's in the Steelers locker room where the magic actually begins
Before each game asking God to watch over all of their Friends
Change
It is imperative in life for success you need change.
Change of associations, change from old ways.
Change of the way we think is a challenge of its own
But that's the one change that strengthens the mold
Not all change is good, yes some change is bad
Though being afraid to change hinders discovering that
From time to time we need to change at least one thing
Then sit back and evaluate what that change brings
For years the fear of change has held mankind back
That fear is what took so long for a President that's black
We can't stay in our comfort zone like a baby in the womb
We have to take a chances and try something new
Even if trying something new causes us to fail
At least we tried to crawl out of our shell
It doesn't have to be major start with little things
Wake up an hour earlier and see what that brings
Getting to work early you can pre-condition your mind
It will make your day go better but you won’t know until you try
Change your attitude on the outside even if inside remains the same
No one wants to be around someone with an negative attitude each an everyday
Change doesn't happen overnight believe me it takes time
Change means you need to take action and it starts first in your mind
Feel Their Pain
The trials and tribulations
Of a bewildering bleak relation
Is causing hesitation
When at first there was none.
It seems time for deviation
From the sweet and joyful sensation
Has infiltrated mediation
And somehow has just won
The thunderous sounds of hearts breaking down
Like a tree in the forest when no one’s around
Can be heard by even the deaf
Plain expressions on their faces
As they try to be tenacious
Leaving it to Gods almighty graces
To show them what is next
They have known another for only a spell
Harboring feelings I dare not tell
Only to through them in a cell
No perhaps on an asphodel
Unguarded memories an thoughts unveiled
Would inspire a book that surely would sale
About their romance and betrayal
To the darkness where now they dwell
The sadness the sorrow fills their
Moods of shamble feeling less answers
Is all they can stamen
Singing impassionate songs
Like they are plagued with a cancer
The loss of their love has them
Like nothing else matters
Hearts now crushed as If they were battered
I hear what you’re thinking but I don’t have a answers
A Cat in a Hat
Last night I got lost and ran into this chap.
Strange looking guy that looked like a cat!
I thought to myself, someone slipped me some smack
That’s a six foot cat in a red and white hat
I asked him for directions to the nearest bus
He paused for a minute until a thought struck
" Did you say the nearest bus" he said with the look of disgust
"Surely my friend you are out of luck"
"What do you mean out of luck?" I asked all confused
" Simple, I never heard of one until I met you!"
You never heard of one that has gotta be a joke,
They’re like stars in the sky or soap on a rope
Soap on a rope ? What does that do ?
I thought that was ridiculous this guy is missing screws
Tell me do you even know your name? Of course he said it's Sam
You say your name is same? He said, indeed, yes Sam I am
Ok this man is a nut case I thought to myself as I started to walk on
He said, excuse me friend do you even know where you’re going
I said that t I'm not going far but I'm moving away from you
This cat said he knows who could help me out I stopped an said you do
Yes, indeed he can help you out and he's a doctor too
I said well take me to him and I hope it's not far
He said it's just around the corner by the rising star
lol by the rising star now isn't that cute
The name on the door read Welcome to Dr. Suez
A Few Of My Favorite Things
Posting my poetry, so you can look at it
checking back frequently, to see if you comment
writing and sharing what’s going on with me
Is the first of the few of my favorite things
Watching a movie without a distraction
be it drama, horror, romantic or action
cuddling with someone that’s special to me
no doubts are a few of my favorite things
Candle light dinner with lobster spaghetti
chicken and dumpling ooh stuffing with gravy
watching the sun set or a fall country drive
are also my favorite so don't look surprised
when I run late
or my heart breaks
and I’m feeling sad
I sit back and think of my favorite things
then soon I don’t feel so bad
watching my girl sleep oh she looks so precious
fireworks in July no whenever they have it
little kids playing is so hard to believe
that these are a few of my favorite things
watching my Steelers whipping on the Ravens
people yelling at a movie knowing they cannot save them
watching my girl melt whenever we kiss
nothing out there is better than this
when the suns late
and there are snow flakes
covering the grass
I think of a few of my favorite things
and then I don’t feel so bad
I'm Thinking
Oh yes I'm thinking about you,
Thinking of who? Thinking about you!
I’m thinking about the smile I keep on your face
and how easy it is for you to make mine not fake
I’m thinking about how good you feel in my arms
how relaxed you are knowing your protected from harm
I’m thinking about our phone chats from one to the next
and if you can’t talk then here come a text
I’m thinking about the times we spend... together,
It seems the sun will always shine even in stormy weather
I’m thinking about how you slept when I cooked you dinner
also how you looked after you ate like you found yourself a winner
I’m thinking about that gift that was hard to believe
I’m thinking that it will always be a part of me
I’m thinking about how your smiling as you read each line
smiling ear to ear like you got away with a crime
I’m thinking about disappearing and I thought you should know
I doesn’t matter what I’m thinking, what matters is what I show
It's All My Fault
Is it always your fault cause I don't take the blame
Well I'll take it this time for thinking things changed
I'll take it for assuming that you trusted me
When I knew you only see what you want to see
It's even my fault for everything in the passed
And for fighting for something I knew wouldn’t last
The questions and lecturing I brang on myself
No reply or answer I could give would help
It's also my fault for being amazed
On how you never hear what I have to say
Yeah it's my fault for thinking you belong to me
And tell folks I'm not available or free
It might even be my fault your dads scared of me
I bet he won’t never pull another gun on a US Marine
I guess it's my fault we don't spend quality time
Cause I'm always home or is this a lie
It's probably my fault someone told me
They seen you at the movies with a guy that wasn't me
it's gotta be my fault that you smell just like cologne
Funny how you put on perfume before you left home
To be clear it's my fault that I no longer care
I don’t care what you do cause I’m out of here
Proverbial state of mind
wrath is cruel, an anger is outrageous, but who can stand before envy
I've found that when he that is soon angry, dealeth foolishly
be not envious against evil men, neither desire to be with them
a forward man soweth strife. A whisper separates chief friends
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy path
If you are ever in need of guidance, look to God and ask
the hoary head is a crown of glory, if found by way of righteousness
be not a witness against thy neighbor without cause, an deceive not with thy lips
drink water out of thy own cistern, and also out thy own well
whoso ever calls unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of hell
the hand of the diligent shall bear rule, and the slothful shall be under tribute
a wise son hears his father’s instruction, but a scorner heareth not rebuke
a false witness will not go unpunished, and he that speaks lies shall perish
So tell the truth at all cost, even if you think they can't bare it
fear of the wicked shall come upon him, but the desire to be righteous is granted
for the Lord givith wisdom, knowledge, and understanding, to eyes that aren't blind from it
Evil men understand not judgment: but they that seek the Lord understand all things
God said, I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me
Pain
Every second of the day
somewhere it’s the same
but it only hits when its someone we love
hits and burns like a fast ball in your glove
the undeniable feeling of pain
shared by everyone like love and shame
when a Dr. comes out an says nothing more then I'm sorry
the spirit is gone, nothings left but the body
when a divorce has been granted, actions mistaken
that time you shared somehow seems wasted
a mother with child that she never can deliver
is the most unbearable that I am aware of
then again the greatest pain is one mostly shared
the inability to ease the pain or suffering of whom we care
their pains we can't feel but we suffer all the same
all we can do is sit and watch the one we love in pain
nothing that we do or say can make the pain subside
God won’t put us threw more we can bare!
Alhamdulillah
Pain is a part of all of our lives, others more than some
But God is watching over us, and soon it will all be done
Black Women
I love my black women this I can’t deny
more beautiful than a painting that’s rare or Devine
From the first one stolen from Africa you stood out from all the rest
your spirit, mind, beauty and strength to men have been a quest
your beauty was like a curse which is why they gave you clothes
just to hide or say cover what the slave owner hold
your spirit so great it could cause an up rise
the same thing about you that’s often scrutinized
But in the depth of your mind is where the real work is done
it’s there the planning of any cause won is done
I love my black women and all of her strength
to carry and bare a child given up her life for it
other races look at black women and try to mimic them
even tan themselves year round so they would have darker skin
Collard greens and corn bread they eat hoping for some luck
luck in achieving their life long goal of obtaining a big ole butt
I love my black women but what they need to know
always act like you have some class and stop dressing like your just ghetto
how you dress is what you attract and how you talk is what you get
If you’re gonna act ghetto all the time in the ghetto is where you'll be left
you'll never be his main girl your just a trophy chic
the main girl will be on his side around family and on business trips
I love my black women but do you love yourself
In bars and clubs drunk as hell in clothes that rise by them self
leaving with strangers you just met that night
three days later at the doctors cause you don’t feel right
Oh yeah, you used protection! Trophy chic it still the same
If you see him out in public he won’t even remember your name
Unless your good at what you do, if I’m not being a little too blunt
he just might remember your name and address for the next release he wants
I love my black women without doubt, oh yes, oh yes I do
so open your eyes black women, this is a reflection on you
Love Professed
I’m in love with this women, yeah I seen your jaw drop!
Tron professing love? When you are, then why not?
I really wasn't positive just thought I was getting soft!
The crazy thing no matter what I couldn’t shake it off.
My kids and my niece were the only ones I said I love you too
But the way this women makes me feel that’s no longer true!
Like an addict hooked on crack, I just can’t get enough.
Her eyes, lip, smile, kiss , her ever so gentle touch!
She's the last thought on my mind before I go to sleep and first when I wake each day.
I don’t know what she's doing to me, but it's really feeling great
During the course of the day, like the sun in the clouds, she pops in an out of my mind!
Then she sends me these texts,( " I LOVE YOU BABE") that makes me smile every time
I know what you’re thinking, AWWWW ISNT THAT SWEET!
That's why it's in her arms, is where I yearn to be.
This feelings so strong, so strong and deep!
It makes me feel as though I’m complete.
She is like a warden, holding my heart in her jail!
This women’s name is none other than Marchelle!
Yes we have our problems just like the next,
But they help us grow so this is my love profess!
Tears
I don't see how something so simple can somehow sooth your pain
That falls without warning unlike an April's rain
something that everyone can make
Yes, even you make no mistake
How you make it is simple too
The only thing required is letting your feelings show though
It happens when we're happy also when we're upset
Allergies play a role if you haven't guessed that yet
Cynthia Freeman helps with words in her books
Marvin Gay showed the world when his life was took
That right they're tears and they fall everyday
Can someone please explain how they somehow sooth our pain
You've Got To Go
The times we spent together were kind of nice
Except for the times we fussed and fight
I really can't remember what the point of it was
All I know is I was never in love
You see, I don’t need someone that's young in the mind
The point of fact is your just wasting my time
You’re not a women but just a girl that just wants to play
But I don’t have time for your little kid games
So if you want, go cry and blow your nose
then get your things cause you've got to go
She Don't Want You
I know you must be hurting but it is way too late for that
She has moved on to someone else and she aint coming back
So many chances she has given you and still you didn’t change
now she doesn’t give you time and day you want her back again
the truth is she don’t want you and she's move on to something better
someone that loves her inside out and you wish he never met her
But if in fact you were doing your job he would never be
Now you've found on the other side the grass isn't even green
How do you get her back? Sorry it's far too late
He has showed her love she couldn’t imagine an it's feeling great
You say we need to talk cause you see her glowing inside
Jody got her heart and gone so your only wasting your time
Mentally, and spiritually are only two way she feels his love
when it comes to physically they are fitting like a glove
Finally she's getting hers no more wasted time
Look man she don’t want you so get that through your mind
Marine Recruit
Life as a recruit used to be kind of hard
Drill Instructors asked questions just to catch you off guard
If you blurt out something that they think sounds uncaring
" You must be out your stinking mind!" yes you just lost your bearing
Losing your bearing as a recruit is a serious offense
Your composer gets altered as the Drill Instructors seem pissed
You could tell if they were pissed by what next happened
He looks away then smiles here comes his satisfaction
Get your ass on my quarter deck will be the next thing you hear
foaming at the mouth like he's been waiting for years
See the quarter deck is where the Instructors has fun
down up, up down, side strattle hop, now run!
No one wants to be the one on the quarter deck
cause the Instructors have fun and pain is what you get
The worst of them all is the one that can’t be done
He say push till I get tired Oh yeah that’s the one
it seemed like the nights were short and the days seemed so long
It was driving us crazy but we still pushed on
Then when we went to the riffle range shooting off rounds
It was like roots and trees depending on each other even games had settled down
without my weapon in a war I just might die
But with my weapon and platoon Dessert Storm I survived
Now we are coming upon our birthday to all my brothers far and near
I say Semper Fi let pour some out for those who aren't here
Just friends
Let me refresh your memory of what I said from the start.
Since now you want to act like I have you in the dark
Stop looking at me like this is some kind of surprise
I told you I only date women that are sexually Bi
Bi the water Bi the house Bi the time you figure out
Bi the windows someone’s peeking you will hear a loud shout
Bi the Station Bi the park
Bi the way it's not even dark
Bi and Bi a lot of place not always in the same spot
yes for real and Bi the way I like to keep it hot
You like to keep it simple so do what you do
For me each time is different and spontaneous too
So you and I having sex , maybe someday we will
when I’m drunk out of my mind and you slip me a pill
Sorry I don’t drink like that and haven’t for awhile
That’s why I’m still going on when others tap out
No we aren't compatible if we were I probably would
Until you started wasting my time then it wouldn't be good
I would stop giving it too you like a women does man
over the very same thing I said before it began
do yourself a favor, don't doubt, and believe
you may think you can hang but I'm out of your league
What I’m Thinking
Oh yes I'm thinking about you,
Thinking of who? Thinking about you!
I’m thinking about the smile I keep on your face
And how easy it is for you to make mine not fake
I’m thinking about how good you feel in my arms
How relaxed you are knowing your protected from harm
I’m thinking about our phone chats from one hour to the next
And if you can’t talk then here come a text
I’m thinking about the times we spend... together,
It seems the sun will always shine even in stormy weather
I’m thinking about how you slept when I cooked you dinner
Also how you looked after you ate like you found yourself a winner
I’m thinking about that gift that was hard to believe
I’m thinking that it will always be a part of me
I’m thinking about how you’re smiling as you read each line
Smiling ear to ear like you got away with a crime
I’m thinking about disappearing and I thought you should know
It doesn’t matter what I’m thinking, what matters is what I show
FEEL THIER PAIN
The trials and tribulations of a bewildering bleak relation is causing hesitation when at first there was none.
It seems time for deviation from the sweet and joyful sensation has infiltrated mediation and somehow just
won
The thunderous sounds of the hearts breaking down like a tree in the forest when no one’s around can be
heard by even the deaf
Plain expressions on their faces as they try to be tenacious leaving it to Gods graces to show them what is next
They have known another for only a spell harboring feelings I dare not tell only to through them in a cell no
perhaps on an asphodel
Unguarded memories a thought unveiled would inspire a book that surely would sale about their romance and
betrayal to the darkness where now they dwell
The sadness the sorrow fills their mood a shamble feeling less answers is all they can stamen singing impassionate songs like they are plagued with a cancer
The loss of their love has them like nothing else matters hearts now crushed as If they were battered I hear
what you’re thinking but I don’t have a answers
In Here
Each night at eleven thirty they come and put us in our cage
Until five thirty the next morning this is where we'll remain
I agree that six hours of lock down isn't worth crying about
If you compare it to the months and years you'll serve before your out
We live in the actuality of the same mess just different day
The same people always fussing as the rest play the same games
Some claim to found religion; I say they're dumb as hell
Three out of five will lose it again once they get out of jail
We do get three meals a day, but I've yet to get one hot
Maybe that's how they found religion, being thankful for what they got
At least we get hot showers and lye soap to wash the germs away
It's safe to say that’s the hottest thing I received my entire stay
I see a lot of correction officers for short we call them CO's
Some of them act like dicks most the time while the others just want to make it home
Just like any other place you have to watch who you call a friend
Cause any dirt you do when the shit hits the fan will all come out in the end
Some will smile in your face as they scheme behind your back
Feeding you all kinds of negativity but never addressing the facts
Oh and let’s not forget the judge that holds your life in their hands
Some will take the time to listen but most don’t give a dam
So tell me my friend, is this where you’re going to be?
That's what we said, before the end of time we'll see
Back to the old Tron
On a scale from one too ten I rated you an eight.
Because of this you told yourself that you can't be replaced...
Sorry to bust your bubble baby but you’re telling yourself a lie
You can be replaced by someone else just as easily as can I
You see, it is easy to get someone with your looks, keeping them is the trick
Thinking the world revolves around you in short LOL is just bull shit
Everything I do an invested in you, should have been done for someone else
Someone that shows me more affection then you have even shown yourself
I don’t know what kind of guys you’re used to, but baby I'm not pressed!
I can have someone better then you in thirty minutes or less
You think I can’t find one that looks better then you, well give me about three to five days
Too sort through the girls to find a women that has no time for games
For two weeks I’ve been thinking on this in hopes that you would change
But I can’t make you love me if you don’t! See that’s all I need to say
No, you truly don’t love me; you just love the shit I do
So what I'm doing now is setting you free, Yes that's my birthday gift too you
It is, what it is and what it was is now gone
That's why I'm going back to the old Tron
Eye Opener
Everything is for a reason so take your blinders off
I wasn’t going to share this at least that’s what I thought
Ponder about this and look real deep for a while.
First lets go back, way back when you were a child
It was the closest thing to being free and anyone could find a job
Seems to me those times are so far gone like it was just a mirage
If you had a disagreement you settled it with your fist
Now days, they’re pulling out guns, what are they chicken shit?
I remember going to my grandmother’s house and they never locked their doors
Can’t do that now you have to lock everything even your lawn décor
Sickening when you think about it all you can do is shake your head
If Dr. King had this dream those famous words wouldn’t have been said
When we were young we listen to most of what the adults had to say
Young in’s now only hear their names, as the rest just gurgles away
Even the government is different they used to have our back
Now they only care about their money which was your money taxed
The government is so messed up now like parents that wants a divorce
No one wants to compromise, but it’s the kids that really get short.
Did you know our government sold guns to drug cartel’s hoping they’ll kill each other
As brother Malcolm said the chickens came home to roost, and no, it can’t be covered
The commander and chief can’t even get any respect and it’s not just his color
You see he was raised a Muslim an these racist fear his change will inspire others
They call him your boy, Barrack, tar baby, all but the title he earned
I thought elected by the people for the people was what we learned
Well somewhere along the line someone flipped the script
It seems like the government is only working for the rich
Everything is for a reason and yes I see yours
I am not blind to what you want to implore
Though I have to admit it seems a sound plan
Weaken his followers you’ll weaken the man
Except we don’t follow man we follow a cause
That was your first and most hurtful flaws
Then if crime gets bad you can declare Marshall Law
When you started to put cameras on traffic lights it really told it all
Tell them they can't smoke in buildings and see what that does
This from the peoples elected Gov.
Once Marshall laws in effect you can get rid of who you want
Tribulation will follow if I’m not being to blunt
The last days before judgment are close at hand
If you don’t seek the truth, you’ll never understand.
Hamada Helal
I am on my knees facing Northeast, with my hands cupped at my chest
Hamada Helal for I have done my best
Bismillahir rahmianir rahim, I have chosen the path of truth
More in depth of the path I was taught as a youth
I say Hamada Helal for the time I was astray
Hamada Helal for not knowing the right way
Hamada Helal for the pain I cause today
Lost in the smoke of humanity my friend has shunned me away
Because of my belief in Allah and I let them walk astray
Hamada helal, I should have grabbed and held them tight
Giving them the message of Prophet Muhammad (puh) but I was unprepared for the fight
I have read that the eye are the light, the light too ones soul
Well mine are now brighter; yes I know that you know
For you alone are all knowing and alone sees all
Only your forgiveness will I seek if I should happen to fall
I thank you Allah for blessing me with what I need
Instead of the things that I want you said be and so it be
This path is such a long path so let me just say
Hamada Helal if I stumble on the way
When the Ride Is Over
I was thinking of all we did and the good times that we had
Trying to figure out what went wrong, why did it turn bad
I gave you a part of me that can never be returned
When the ride is over I take it as a lesson learned
The first thing that came to mind was to bust the windows out your car
I told you don’t cheat, just go ahead and leave, from the very start
Instead you try to run your little game like I’m dumb, and you would not get caught
But I’m not dumb no not by far, contrary to what you thought
Standing there, you can't even look me in the face, because of what I found
How did you meet, an how long have you been messing around
Just an old friend is not going to fly, so think before you speak
The only thing worst then what I found, would be you two between the sheets
You text professing your love to them, like I don't even exist
Lying beside me at night, like you aint doing shit
I said when the ride is over, I wouldn't even be mad
But if you don’t pack your things, and get out of my life, your blood is what I’ll have
God Will Heal Her
Her heart is broken
I can feel her
It hurts so badly,
But God will heal her
Each day brings new pains
Still her mind stays pure
The kids ask me what to do
I say “God will heal her"
She is in and out of hospitals
Still she presses on
With a smile on her face
No, the pains not gone
She sometimes sings a hymn
When there is no one around her
Trying to ignore the pain and make herself calmer
In and out each day
Seems to be the same thing
She just wants to get away
Just wants to be pain free
Little does she know?
Two angles are watching over
When the pain can no longer be bared
Surely, God will heal her
Way Back When
I remember way back when I held Sassy for the first time
Almost made me cry, and she's not even mine
She was tinny as well, let just say she was small
With a set of lungs on her that could be heard down the hall
I remember way back when adults used too always snitch
Every time I turned around, I had to go get a switch
Man, I went through so many, there wasn’t much left of the bush
Then my grandmother said," Get one from that tree" not whipped but whooped
I remember way back when I had, to stay on the porch because it started to rain
Adults really got on my nerves, man, that's all I'm saying
Way back when gas was only a dollar twenty-five, we used to cruise every day of the week
Pass a gas station now and look at the price, all you want to do is go home and sleep
Remember way back when shirts had fly away collars, and everyone was sporting a fro
Plead shirts, platform shoes, and skin tight bell bottoms said that you had soul
Way back when it got dark in Whitsette we played a game called I spy
Remember? I spy, stickem in the eye, who's not ready? Holler I. "I"
We all have a whole lot of memories of things we did back then
Towan I thank you for the Title of Way Back When
Not Finished With Me Yet
Before Dessert Storm, my mom and I talked a bit
I promised her that I’ll be back because God's not finished with me yet
So I attacked the war without any fear
The war is over but the dreams are still here
I traveled the road of drugs and I probably should have died
Till one day clear as day a voice came in my mind
It said look here Tron you need to get off that mess
Clean yourself up I'm not finished with you yet
So I did and for eleven years I have been clean
I’m never going back, you can best believe
I've been through depression from one week to the next
I had to keep moving forward because he's not finished with me yet
Though each night I await death, in the morning I get a blessing
Like all I’m going through is just his faith testing
My D M gave me a daughter who is too me, more precious than a flower
Seeing her puts a smile on my face, even in my darkest hour
My sons are now men and I’m proud of them I confess
I will see the great things my kids will do; God's not finished with me yet
He blessed me with creative writing, so since he's not finished with me yet
I'll use this blessing to make you smile and get me form one day to the next
The brutal truth
I have really been thinking on what to say, or even what to do
The point of it all, is the feelings I have for you
A lot of time has passed, and we've been through a lot
Took all the love I have, in return what have I got
A whole lot of head ace, and I am feeling like a fool
Got me fussing at myself because there is no one here to fuss to
Now I have a message I really want you to know
It’s time that I reveal it to you since you’re always on the go
The last word between the lines is where the message is contained
See that's the brutal truth of why the locks are being changed babe!
Let me help you out since you want to act like you’re slow
The point of it all is you got to go!
This dream again
I’ve just awaken from a dream, a flash back you might say
The noise the rush and even the smell was present clear as day
Every so often I have this dream; I guess it’s something I can’t forget
The good thing it hasn’t been a problem for me, well at least not yet
Gently I’ll walk you through my dream and try and paint you a picture
First we are in the middle of nowhere in south west Asia in case you hadn’t figured
It’s about 9:00 pm, 2100 if you please Jones and I are in the fox hole shooting the breeze
We cover the cherry of our cigarettes while we smoke so we won’t be seen
From us too twenty yards to our left are two more holes then a LAV track
A light armor vehicle company and Bravo had been attached
I can smell the diesel fuel in the night’s cold air but really couldn’t see that far
The Iraqi’s had been burning oil all day so we could barely see a hundred yards
Off in the distance I can hear Iraqi chatter so everyone was on their toes
Jones gets you some sleep Lippencott keep watch, and keep your ass in that
You see I found it hard to sleep in the hole so I always climbed my ass out
Go to sleep behind the hole why not? Jones was looking out.
All was quiet threw the night other than the dam chatter
Jones, here comes Staff Sergeant Gordon, I wonder, what’s the matter
I just got the word from headquarters he said, today were going in
Get some chow, fill in these holes, and check your mop gear and weapons
After all this was done we had a prayer then his speech before we got on the track
I noticed the look in his eyes, he was scared but he tried to talk all relaxed
The company is full of young gun hoe Marines and we all are ready to go
Then we heard those three most beautiful words, alright Bravo, lock and load
We climbed up in the track and buttoned up the doors
Weapons are all on safe, with the barrels pointed to the floor
Count off for the head count, Ok we got them all
Rittenower fired up the track and off we went, balls to the wall
With all this gear on it’s hot in here, felt like it was hard to breathe
The terrain was ruff, ride was bumpy, and riding in a sardine can is how it seemed
Fifteen to twenty minutes go by an we get our first encounter
Iraqi tanks in the open comes on the radio I hear; “he’s turning to fire”
Just when we hear that boom, boom, boom a M1 fired first
Targets destroyed over the radio comes and we all give out a loud out burst
Five minutes to the trenches, everyone recheck your gear
Lippencott wait till we come to a stop, before you jump out there.
See I volunteered to be the first one in the trench, following a grenade
In practice I was jumping out while the track was moving, they said it wasn’t safe
Two more tanks are coming our way and the M1’s are on the ball
They fired we fired canon smoke fills the air Jones nods at me as I think “kill them all”
Visual Orgasm
You have my blood boiling as I wait for what’s next
You have my pressure up so high that I am starting to sweat.
The way you’re coming across and the way you look at me
Has got me so excited like I am living in a dream
If my heart beats any faster it just might have an attack
So move a little slower, oh yes just, like that.
Hold on a minute baby, I am having a muscle spasm
Sorry I was mistaken, it was a visual orgasm
When you walk the pictures on the wall even turn and star
And even though your soft spoken your heads not full of air
Five foot three, thirty-six, twenty six, and just fit
With deep brown eyes now that’s a nice twist
Your lips make my mouth water with each word you speak
Oh this visual orgasm is starting to get sweet
Let me return the favor, Here have a seat in my chair
I see you brought your scarf so I wouldn’t mess up your hair
Let me take your heels off baby, and gently rub your feet
You know first a little foreplay before working on relief
You must have had a long day; your calves are rather tight
Let’s satisfy that freak in you, with a hot orgasmic night
We are not going to rush this, were going to enjoy each sensation
We'll stop for Tanqueray commercials, but only in moderations
Let me seduce your mind with a few lines that come straight from the heart
But first you better get comfortable and let me know when I can start
Too please or not too please will never be the question
I've studied this so long you would have thought it was a profession
As I begin to kiss and caress you, I'll start here at your feet
Slowly I'll work my way up till face to face we meet
An just when you think I'm done with that I'll work my way back down
I bet you can't stare me in my eyes while my tongue is moving around
As the puppet master I’ll have your body under my control
First an arch in your back then a gasp for air now slowly your eyes will close
Look at that sexy smile I guess you think it can’t be done
SWV wrote a song called Weak and yes baby I’m the one
I’ll treat your body like an ice cream cone, not a drop will I waste
Not even when your pulling my dreads and your hips have me on the chase
A multiple orgasm baby is really what you need
That visual orgasm made you smile cause that’s where you want to be
I’ll let you catch your breath a minute but as we take our short break
Your clit will twitch, your thighs will tremble and your leg will start to shake
But don’t worry baby it’s natural it just means you want some more
How about some chilled strawberries you seem a little warm
I’m glad you put your scarf on cause your hair would be a mess
Hum, since these strawberries are chilling on ice let me work up too your breast
As my breath melts the ice in my mouth I’ll let it drip on your waist
The tease makes you gasp for air then puts a smile on your face
Drip, drip, run, run then I’ll finally lick it back up
With your nipples between my figures out loud you’ll think I want to fuck
So with my mouth on your tit, and the head of my dick on your clit I’ll excite you a little more
As I squeeze your other breast you’ll moan to let me know you’re sure
The warmth of my dick on your wet creamy clit will put an arch in your back
A soft gentle kiss and spread of your lips I’ll be in and you like that.
Inside your muscles start gripping my dick like groupies that want to have him
Hold on tight baby the penetrations crazy as I end your visual orgasm.
Modern Day Slaves
Thousands of African where stolen from their homes,
Sent across the ocean to someplace unknown!
A lot of these African died along the way.
The ones that survived the travel were made to be slaves!
After they got there they were sold just like land,
Not just sold but separated by the hand of a white man!
When I say separated, I mean from their family!
Oh yes, this was the way of their new society!
They were handled like animals with whips and chains.
Worked hard in fields and had no shelter from the rain!
Men and women alike were raped by their so called master!
Even if they told someone they wouldn't be helped because they don't even matter.
This went on for years and after so many tears they even attempted to escape!
But if they're caught starting right from that spot they are made examples of the mistake!
The mistake wasn't running away, the mistake was getting caught.
For the ones that managed to get away, well freedom is what they got!
Modern day society is still infested with slaves.
But social security helps keeps track of us, so that we never can get away!
Dr. King had a dream and most people believe that we have overcome.
Here is a rude awakening my friends, we've only just begun!
You would think in my former life, that I march as a Black Panther
But in reality I'm just a deep thinker looking for unspoken answers
They tax what we earn during the year before we even see our pay!
After having the audacity to make us file so they can take more money away.
They know we don't want to pay taxes so they rub it in harder.
Right after your name and address they go and ask us for a dollar.
This from the same people that held a party in Boston, where they threw tea into the bay!
They didn't want to pay taxes then, so why should we today.
Seriously is it really our fault that the budgets in the red or the officials that were in office?
They never asked us what too spend the money on; Even now we can't stop it.
Let me decide not too paying taxes any more I'll get picked up without hesitation.
This new age Master will send me on my way to what I call a Federal Plantation.
So the next time you think the government needs praised.
Remember this; you and I, are just, modern day slaves!
The Beauty
I have witnessed a beauty as bright as the summer sun!
This illuminated my spirits when I thought that sadness had won.
My thoughts were darker than the midnight hour.
Raining thoughts of sadness like an April shower.
Maybe I needed the rain for this beauty to appear.
Because now that it has my vision is real clear.
There are other things to focus on, other than this pain.
I've never felt sadness like this, and I hope I don't again.
My eyes were burning uncontrollably, like a forest fire!
Imagine shampoo in your eyes; also know that it is milder.
My mouth feels full of cotton with a tennis ball in my throat.
Until I saw this beauty, I thought there was no hope.
Now the tennis ball is gone and the cotton is turning to candy.
Although my eyes are still irritated, they just feel a little sandy!
Yes! I feel a little better, and I'm singing a better tune.
For the beauty that made this possible, I just want to say THANK YOU
A Friend
A friend is someone that is there for you,
Someone you can tell your entire problem too.
A friend will listen without you having to shout,
In fact all they want to do is help you out!
A friend can tell whenever you're hurt.
Even when you try to hide it guess who notices first.
A friend, that's right as if you didn't know!
With a shoulder to cry on and a tissue for your nose!
A friend somehow whenever you’re down,
Can find a way to make you smile.
Where ever you are through thick and threw thin.
I want you to know that indeed I'm your friend!
"IF"
If our parents really loved us they wouldn't get mad,
Or attempt to interfere with the love that we have.
If our parents really loved us we would know that they cared,
When we had a problem they would try to be there!
If our parents really loved us they would know for sure,
That nothing that they do or say will keep us apart any more.
If our parents really loved us they wouldn't get uptight,
What matter is we're happy not what's wrong or right!
If our parents really loved us they would try to understand,
All these years I've respected them now that's what I demand.
If our parents really loved us like I really give what?
Instead of talking behind our backs they should bring it straight too us.
If our parents really loved us it would be easy for them to see,
Also condone the love of ours we all come from Adam and Eve!
If our parents really loved us it wouldn't make a difference,
What matters are we're happy plus our race is not that different?
If our parents really loved us, no I'm not saying that anymore,
All I feel is our love for each other and that I know for sure!
You Had Me
From the first moment I seen you your beauty captured me
Like a black panther in the zoo that forgot what it was like to be free!
For me to get to know a female has never been a trying task
If I wanted to get too know them all I had to do was ask
I wanted you to be special no games or fancy lines
I laid everything down on the table, and no, there are no fine lines
I gave you a letter explaining myself, and how I was feeling you
But no reply was ever given, today that still remains true
Are you flattered or interested keeps going through my mind
I guess in reality I am only wasting my time
It took a long time for me to grow these dreads
But for you in the name of love I was willing to cut them off my head
I told you they are my strength and you thought it was sweet
Listen, real though for you I was willing to be weak.
It seems I was the first is what you wanted me to know
The first person in your entire life to ever buy you a rose
Valentine’s Day you told me that I made you weak
I feel that way held in your arms cheek to cheek
I think this has gone on long enough you don't want me in your life
Oh yeah, baby you had me, but this here isn't right
To me love is not a game to be won by one
Or something to do and call it fun
Love is an emotion shared by two
An emotion that I wanted to share with you
Winter and spring
I have sat here and pondered on the things I want to say.
In reference to the season, so now, without any further delay.
Let me speak about winter other than its wet and so cold!
I'll touch upon the warm things, such as the loved one that we hold.
Let’s sit by the fire and watch the flame do their dance.
With that special someone in our arms, "now that's a vision of romance"!
Every now and then we'll get a hard race in our heart,
As the flame split's the wood and we hear that loud pop!
I enjoy it when the female jumps up into my arms
Because I know that she knows I'll protect her from any harm
I guess that you can say the winter months means romance to me
Just like most other I can't wait for the months of spring!
Spring is like Mother Nature is in her nursing hour
Giving her new born strength with the sun and April showers
As the flowers bloom the grass will grow green
That's just to touch on a couple of things!
Easter Sunday the kids look forward to the egg hunt at church
They all look so sharp in their new out fits down to the girl’s new purse
At Easter Sunday’s dinner, we'll grab a hold of each other’s hand.
To give thanks to the one that gave his life for the sins of all man
There had to have been a lot of love in him to give his life for us
After being betrayed by a man I believed had earned his trust
This is what spring means to me. I guess you now wonder:
What can I find to pick me up in the coming months of summer?
Shoot the Gift
Thoughts of you mess up my hair
So as I twist my hair above
I'll think of you and making love
Go ahead and smile but know the truth
Then seek advice from Dr. Ruthe
Comprehend to her words and know there not lies
Then invite my warmth between your thighs
First let me excite you with my long gentle tongue
Guaranteed to get the juices flowing, Oh yes its' begun
Your heart will race as I nibble on your inner thigh
As I slowly move up you'll begin to close your eyes
Praying that this is not just an erotic dream
As I lead you on the way too pure ecstasy
Then after you get there and your juices get to racing
I'll introduce your clit too my closes friend Jason
Don't worry about a thing I'll put him in gently
See I just want to make love too you physically and mentally
Ooh baby I have notices your thighs are moving further apart
When you give me the chance you'll feel me in your heart
As you look deep into my eyes try not to stare
They'll have you reaching for things that aren't even there
Deep inside I will go leaving no wall untouched
This is the process of love making not a good old fashion fuck
But if you want a Fuck, well baby we can do that too
Just be advised the motion in your ocean will surely hypnotize you
I'm talking in, out, side to side
Working it so well you start trembling in your thighs
Love juices and sweat you know it's getting hot
In your head your saying "yes, baby don't stop"
I know I popped that lock, because still you cannot sit
So give me the time and Day that you and I can shoot the gift
Within My Mind
Each day brings us closer together then we were before
Is it because of this that our love has grown more?
There is an everlasting glow about you every time you smile
That seems to be relaxing like a passing cloud
No we don't need to have sex in order for our love too remain
We just share our feelings, our thoughts, and other simple things
We even go out at times to two separate clubs
Before the sun rises’ we are back to our love
We don't cheat on each other and people find that hard to believe
Because our desires are satisfied as well as our needs
A relationship like ours is so very hard to find
This is how I think of us deep with in my mind
Feelings
Feelings are emotions that are hard to explain.
They fill you with joy and sometimes with pain.
The feeling of love is the most painful of them all!
For it builds you up too take a fall.
Once you fall you start to cry!
Lying in bed just wondering why.
After crying all day and all night long,
You turn on the radio and here a love song.
You've tried to change the station but it's just a waste of time.
Here comes that old feelings playing with your mind.
To top this off from days to weeks, to mouths sometimes years.
Until a new love these old feelings will bring tears!
Story of a King
I have a dream, were his famous words!
They express the things that we all looked for.
His slogan and song was “We shall overcome ".
Many people believed that this cause could be won!
He made his contributions to this cause.
The Declaration of Independence states it all!
So we hold these truths to be self-evident.
For life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness,
"All men are created equal" is what he once said.
As he fought for the rights of not some, but all men!
When this king received a call about Rosa Parks.
He decided to lead the blacks on a boycott!
Oh this king was threatened but still protested on.
Although the company gave in this kings house was bombed!
This king won the Noble Peace Prize in 1964.
Not for helping just blacks, but all people poor!
Then on April fourth while in Memphis Tennessee,
A shot was fired that hit and killed Dr. Martin Luther King.
Thought you should know
Last night before the midnight dreary,
On a whim witness something eerie!
In the past I had never seen clearly
Or maybe I did, I can’t be sure.
Let’s just say it’s something I never paid attention to before.
Government buildings are steady wizen.
Well after the close of business
While their champagne glasses fizzes
Our tax dollars are wasted some more
A news team got and examined
Their electric bills and who would have fathom
The bills were so unimagined
And on public records my lord.
How does seven hundred thousand sound to you?
In one month just over a million too
Our tax dollars working for whom
Why should we take this anymore?
While they’re relaxing in the bliss
Of the tax paying labors hip
The rich keep getting rich
And the poor just stays poor
This makes me kind of sour
Cause as they waist our tax dollars
The governments quick too holler
The budget is drained like an over worked whore
“We hold these truths to be self-evident”
Is the waste of our dollars so irrelevant?
We’re supposed to pursue our happiness
Happiness in what? In our government?
Well friends you can all start clapping
The government sees that we're not napping
Cause now there is a constant tapping
No a steady rapping from there chamber doors
Thank the media for the show
Because finally we all know
In tribute to Edgar Allen Poe
Quote the raven, and say” Nevermore.”
