I put everything I got/my essence my being
to these words that I speak/ to these thoughts that I think
every syllable comes from my soul/
every part of me that makes me feel whole
I’m starting to understand /the power of my words
Back when I was in grade 4/conjugating verbs
A lover of language/Intelligence that led to anguish
But Reading books every day/helped me on my way
There are so many things/that can be done with my speech
So i keep rearranging the lines/til the puzzle truly speaks
The story that I’m telling/is understanding and reasoning
The same words moved around/to generate different meanings
No matter how fast we run/time is what we face
Clear thought is/the space between time and space
and I’m needing time for space/to rejuvenate
creativity keeps my spirit alive/in this place
I’d rather write and give life/than run the rat race
when someone feels what you say/it’s such a beautiful taste
of reassurance and acceptance/my talent can’t go to waste
I can’t afford/to waste precious seconds in haste
I’m timing beats/ words and rhymes
I’m forming structures/words and lines
I’m forming life/ lines/
that cross and intersect lives
A few simple words/can make someone feel real special
and with that acquired knowledge/I keep my head level
the discipline I’ve practiced/in making the right decisions
gives me the conviction/to make these literary incisions
It gives me hope/and the ability to strive
To keep writing from my soul/and keep my spirit alive
It makes me untouched/and I haven’t changed much
I’m a rock//an impenetrable as such
If you ever need me/I’ll always be there
My heart forever open/and I’ll always care
the thoughts released/on this mic are free
from my mind to yours/is a special part of me
I hope that you grab them/cherish these life tested
ideas keep them close to your chest/I’ve invested
heavily with evergreen/cleverly worded configurations
steadily herding my minds/own complex machinations
I put everything I got/my essence my being
to these words that I speak/ to these thoughts that I think
every syllable comes from my soul/
every part of me that makes me feel whole
A Different time/A different space
I’m a different mind/I’m a different race
Abject discoveries/lovely mothering qualities
with a sense of forcefulness/a true dichotomy
its raw uncut emotion/presented scholarly
I withdraw my devotion/so you can come and follow me
I’m measured in my movements /towards destiny’s date
I’m feeling the improvement/as letters formulate
the voice I’ve been given/is such a powerful tool
I’d rather use its full potential/to wake up a fool
or pullback the wool/in the face of lies
Man its amazing the impact/you can have on other peoples lives
I’m timing beats/ words and rhymes
I’m forming structures/words and lines
I’m forming life/ lines/
that cross and intersect lives
I’m timing beats/ words and rhymes
I’m forming structures/words and lines
I’m forming life/ lines/
that cross and intersect lives
the voice I’ve been given/is such a powerful tool
I’d rather use its full potential/to wake up a fool
or pullback the wool/in the face of lies
Man its amazing the impact/you can have on other peoples lives
