GOD

when I was alone and had nothing

I asked 4 a friend 2 help me bear the
pain no one came except...GOD

when I needed a breath 2 rise
from my sleep no one could
help me except....GOD

when all i saw was sadness
and I needed answers no one
heard me except....GOD

so when I am asked who I
give my unconditional love 2
look for no other name
except.....GOD!

 

THE ETERNAL LAMENT

From my mind 2 the depths of my soul
I yearn 2 achieve all of my goals
And all of my free time will be spent
On the 1's I miss I will lament

I am not a perfectionist
But still I seek perfection
I am not a great romantic
But yet I yearn 4 affection

Eternally my mind will produce
ways 2 put my talents 2 use
and when I'm done no matter where I've been
I'll yearn 2 do it all again.

ONLY 4 THE RIGHTEOUS

I'm Down with strictly dope "So"
That means I'm more than u can handle
"Hot" Im hotter than the wax from a candle
"Him" that's Roc he's my microphone companion
"Lyrics" full of knowledge truth and understanding
"Hobbies" rapping is my only recreation
"retire" u must be on some kind of medication
"why" beccause I'll never loosen up my mic grip
"Drugs" never cuz I'm living on the right tip
"sex" only with my girl because I love her
"Babies" impossible I always use a rubber
"Bored" rarely cuz I'm keeping myself busy
"Scratch" nah I leave the cutting up 2 Dize
"Dize?" yeh that's my D.J. he's the greatest
"Word" nah he's paying me 2 say this
"the mind" is something that I cultivate
and treasure
"Thanks" you're welcome and besides it was my pleasure

WHERE THERE IS A WILL

Where there is a will
there is a way
2 search and discover
a better day

Where a positive heart
is all u need
2 Rise Beyond
and succeed

where young minds grow
and respect each other
based on their Deeds
and not their color

When times R dim
say as I say
"where there is a will
There is a way!"


STARRY NIGHT

A creative heart, obsessed with satisfying
this dormant and uncaring society
you have given them the stars at night
and u have given them
Bountiful Bouquets of Sunflowers
but 4 u there is only contempt
and though u pour yourself into that fame
and present it so proudly this world
could not accept your masterpieces
from the heart.
So on that starry night u gave 2 us
and u took away from us
the one thing we never acknowledged
your life.


THE FEAR IN THE HEART OF MAN

(Dedicated 2 My Heart)

against an attacker I will boldly take my stand
because my heart will show fear 4 no man
but 4 a broken heart I run with fright
scared 2 be blind in a vulnerable night
I believe this fear is in every man
some will acknowledge it others will fail 2 understand
there is no fear in a shallow heart
but feeling hearts that truly care
are fragile 2 the flow of air
and if I am 2 be true then I must give
my fragile heart
I may receive great joy or u may return it
ripped apart

IF I FAIL
If in my quest 2 achieve my goals
I stumble or crumble and lose my soul
Those that knew me would easily co-sign
There was never life as hard as mine
No father-no money-no chance and no guide
I only follow my voice inside
if it guides me wrong and I do not win
I'll learn from mistakes and try 2 achieve again.


IN THE DEPTHS OF SOLITUDE
I exist in the depths of solitude
pondering my true goal
Trying 2 find peace of mind
and still preseerve my soul
CONSTANTLY yearning to be accepted
and from all receive respect
Never compromising but sometimes risky
and that is my only regret
A young heart with an old soul
how can I be in the depths of solitude
when there R 2 inside of me
This Duo within me causes
the perfect opportunity
2 learn and live twice as fast
as those who accept simplicity


A LOVE UNSPOKEN

What of a love unspoken? Is it weaker without a name?
Does this love deserve 2 exist without a title
because I dare not share its name
Does that make me cruel and cold
2 deny the world of my salvation
because I chose 2 let it grow
People tend 2 choke
that which they do not understand
Why shouldn't I be weary
and withhold this love from MAN
What of a love unspoken
no one ever knows
But this is a love that lasts
and in secrecy it grows


WHY MUST U BE UNFAITHFUL (4 Women)

MEN!
u shouldn't listen 2 your selfish heart
It doesn't really have a brain
Besides keeping u alive
its existence is in vain
"How could I be so mean,
and say your heart has no place?"
Because mortal men fall in love again
as fast as they change their face
I may be cruel, but think awhile about
The hearts that u have broken
Match that with the empty vows
I am not saying females R perfect
Because men we know it's not true
But why must u be unfaithful
If her heart is true 2 u!!!!

WHAT I SEE!
With my eyes closed I can c
we have a chance 2 discover ecstasy
but the clouds of doubt have made u blind
so u R afraid of the emotions that u may find
I know that u've been hurt before
but this is no excuse 4 u 2 ignore
the seed that cupid planted, in hopes that we could sow
This infant emotion deserves 2 breathe so why won't u
let it grow
A neglected flower will wither and on it's own it will
surely die
But with honesty, passion, and mutual respect we can
soar beyond the sky
So please don't follow what u c follow the rhythm within
your heart
Believe in my though u cannot c what lies within the
Dark
THE ROSE THAT GREW FROM CONCRETE

Did you hear about the rose that grew from a crack in the concrete?
Proving nature's law is wrong it learned to walk with out having feet.
Funny it seems, but by keeping it's dreams, it learned to breathe fresh air.
Long live the rose that grew from concrete when no one else ever cared.

SOMETIMES I CRY

Sometimes when I'm alone
I Cry,
Cause I am on my own.
The tears I cry are bitter and warm.
They flow with life but take no form
I Cry because my heart is torn.
I find it difficult to carry on.
If I had an ear to confide in,
I would cry among my treasured friend,
but who do you know that stops that long,
to help another carry on.
The world moves fast and it would rather pass by.
Then to stop and see what makes one cry,
so painful and sad.
And sometimes...
I Cry
and no one cares about why.

MY DEAREST ONE

There R no words 2 express

how much I truely care

so many times I fantisize of
feelings we can share
My heart has never known
the Joy u bring 2 me
As if GOD knew what I wanted
and made u a reality
I'd die 2 hold u or 2 kiss u
or merely to see your face
my stomach quivers my body shivers
and my heart increases pace
2 give me $ or lots of gold
would not be the same 2 me
I prayed and watched the distant stars
and finally u came 2 me!


LIBERTY NEEDS GLASSES 
Excuse me but Lady Liberty needs glasses
and so does Mrs Justice by her side
both the broads r blind as bats
stumbling thru the system
justice bumbed into Mutulu and
trippin on Geronimo Pratt
but stepped right over Oliver
and his crooked partner Ronnie

justice stubbed her big toe on Mandela
and liberty was misquoted by the Indians
slavery was a learning phase
forgotten with out a verdict
while justice is on a rampage
4 endangered surviving black males
i mean really if anyone really valued life
and cared about the masses
they'd take em both 2 pen optical
and get 2 pair of glasses

NOTHING CAN COME BETWEEN US

(4 John)

let's not talk of money
let us forget the world
4 a moment let's just revel
in our eternal comradery
in my Heart I know
there will never be a day
that I don't remember
the times we shared
u were a friend
when I was at my lowest
and being a friend 2 me
was not easy or fashionable
regardless of how popular
I become u remain
my unconditional friend
unconditional in its truest sense
did u think I would forget
did u 4 one moment dream
that I would ignore u
if so remember this from here 2 forever
nothing can come between us

IN THE EVENT OF MY DEMISE

In the event of my Demise

when my heart can beat no more

I Hope I Die For A Principle
or A Belief that I had Lived 4
I will die Before My Time
Because I feel the shadow's Depth
so much I wanted 2 accomplish
before I reached my Death
I have come 2 grips with the possibility
and wiped the last tear from My eyes
I Loved All who were Positive
In the event of my Demise

WHEN YOUR HERO FALLS

when your hero falls from grace
all fairy tales r uncovered
myths exposed and pain magnified
the greatest pain discovered
u taught me 2 be strong
but im confused 2 c u so weak
u said never 2 give up
and it hurts 2 c u welcome defeat
when ure hero falls so do the stars
and so does the perception of tomorrow
without my hero there is only
me alone 2 deal with my sorrow
your heart ceases 2 work
and your soul is not happy at all
what r u expected 2 do
when ure only hero falls 

GENESIS

The Rebirth Of My Heart

(dedicated 2 Renee Ross)

First there was nothing
Not even the faint echo of a song
Loneliness was daily 4 me
until u came along
There was a gleam of stars in your eyes
I thought I'd never feel this way again
But u were the one 2 reach into my heart
And find in me a Friend
I could not ignore the magnetism
that I felt when u were near
And any problems plaguing my mind
would suddenly disappear
It was the rebirth of my heart
The day u became my friend
Because I knew from the moment
I held u that I would find love again


I KNOW MY HEART HAS LIED BEFORE
I know my heat has lied before
but now it speaks with honesty
of an invisible bond of friendship
that has formed in secrecy
Coming from me this may seem hard
but 2 GOD I swear it's the truth
We R friends for eternity
and Forever I will always love u
With All My Heart & "Spirit"

LOVE WITHIN A STORM

We mad love within a storm in the midst of passion and chaos somewhere, somehow our true bond of friendship was lost In the eye of the storm

The rain always falls harder

Those who prevail this trauma will learn 2 bring their love farther

But now the storm has passed and the seas of our friendship R calm

But as long as I live I will remember the love within the storm

THE POWER OF A SMILE

The power of a gun can kill and the power of Fire can Burn The power of wind can chill and the power of the mind can learn The power of anger can rage inside until it tears u apart But the Power of a Smile especially yours can heal a frozen Heart

LIFE THROUGH MY EYES

Life through my bloodshot eyes

would scare a square 2 death

poverty, murder, violence and

never a moment 2 rest

Fun and games R few but treasured like gold 2 me

cuz I realize that I must return 2 my spot in poverty

But mock my words when I say

my heart will not exist unless my destiny comes through and put an end 2 all of this

ELIZABETH A DIFFERENT LOVE

I remember when u were LOST and your soul was in the wind

It was at this awkward moment that u and I become friends

But then your soul was found and u discovered celibacy

But with this u forgot about me and our bond was a memory

And now I c u felt it that bond we made before

I pray 2 God it stands and severs never more.

THINGS THAT MAKE HEART BREK

pretty smiles
deceiving laughs
and people who dream with their eyes open
lonely children
unanswered cries
and souls who have given up hoping
The other thing that breaks hearts
R fairy tales that never come true
and selfish people who lie 2 me
selfish people just like u

THE SHINING STAR WITHIN

(dedicated to Marilyb Monroe)
Secrets R hidden within the clouds
of Darkness,
And in this place no on Dares 2 Breathe
in Fear of self-expression
It has been this way
forever and a day
until she came 2 shine
with a spark of innocence and questions
only 2 be answered with Darkness
not just Darkness but hte silent kind
that steals your soul and kills your mind
There was no compassion
for this thriving star
only exploitations
and confused jealousy
u saw no hope and brought the end
Never acknowledging the star within

U R RIPPING US APART

Before u came the triangle never broke,

we were bonded and melded as one

but as the 2 pushed u away

The one got weak and embraced u

and now u r ripping us apart

The worst feeling of helplessness

The greatest pain has rested in my heart

The vision of heaven fades

and the nightmare of loneliness has started

My hero has been defeated by you

and now what can I do

watch as u destroy us and our love is finally through

I know the worst is here I feel it in my Heart

u got into the circle now you're tearing us apart.

PRIDE IN THE PANTHER

Can You See the Pride In the Panther As he grows in splendor and  grace

 Topling obstacles placed in the  way,of the progression of his race.

 Can You See the Pride In the Panther as she nurtures her young all alone

 The seed must grow regardless of the fact that it is planted in stone.

 Can You See the Pride In the Panthersas they unify as one.

 The flower blooms with brilliance,and outshines the rays of the sun.

A YOUNG HEART WITH AN OLD SOUL

How can there be peace?
How can I be in the depths of solitude
When there are two inside of me?
This duo in me causes the perfect opportunity
To learn and live twice as fast
As those who accept simplicity…

UNDER THE SKIES ABOVE

My child is out there somewhere
under the skies above
waiting anxiously 4 u and me
2 bless it with our love
A part of me a part of u
and a part of this love we share
will protect my unborn child
who lives dormant out there somewhere
Sometimes in my dreams
I imagine what it would be like
How could I properly guide him
when even I don't know what's right
Whether he is born in wealth or poverty
there will be no deficiency in love
I welcome this gift of life
given from GOD under the skies above

 

1st IMPRESSIONS

Just when I thought I'd seen it all
our paths crossed and met
and I knew from the First glance
that u would be hard 2 4get
your eyes attracted me First
but you reeked of sultry confidence
I couldn't wait 2 touch lips
and kiss with my Heart's intentions
when we did it was what I expected
and 4 that moment we erased the tension
of the awkwardness of First Date Jitters
and the initial Blind Date First impressions
we kissed again and I felt the passion
and this was CUPID's blessing

1 FOR APRIL

2 me your name alone is poetry
I barely know u and already
I can't explain this feeling I feel
4 APRIL
I want 2 c u from the moment
u leave my side till the moment u return
My nonchalant cold heart finally has eyes only
4 APRIL
So now I risk it all
Just 4 the feeling of joy u bring me
I accept the ridicule
in exchange for the words u share with me
All of this & much more I will do
4 APRIL

March 1st - THE DAY AFTER APRIL

Today I wake and feel even lonelier
But I c positive potential
My heart shook much like the quake
Then the pain was gone
The arctic breeze formed the fortress
Barricading my fragile heart from Pain

It is not that I don't love u
and it was because I did love u
that I must move on
as long as I breath
I will remember
"WE AS 2"

JUST A BREATH OF FREEDOM

Held captive 4 your politics
They wanted 2 break your soul
They ordered the extermination
of all minds they couldn't control
4 u the fate was far worse
that just a brutal homicide
They caged u like an animal
and watched u slowly die inside
As u Breathe your first air of freedom
on the day u become a free man
Raise you Regal Brow in Pride
4 now you R in God's Hands
The life of many were given
so that the day would one day come
That the devils in Power at Pretoria
would pay for the evil crimes they've done

JADA

U R the omega of my heart
The foundation 4 my conception of Love
When i think of what a Black woman should be
It's U that I first think of
U will never fully understand
How deeply my Heart Feels 4 U
I worry that we'll grow apart
And i'll end up losing u
U bring me 2 climax without sex
and u do it all with regal grace
U R my Heart in Human Form
A Friend I could never replace

IF I FAIL
If in my quest to achieve my goals
I Stumble or crumble and lose my soul
Those that knew me would easily co-sign
There was never a life as hard as mine
No father - No money - No chance and No guide
I only follow my voice inside
If it guides me wrong and I do not win
I'll learn from my mistakes and try 2 achieve again

WHAT OF FAME?

everyone knows ure Face
The world screams ure name
Never again R u alone

FATHER
Father forgive us for living
Why are all my homies stuck in prison?
Barely breathing, believing that this world is a prison
It's like a ghetto we can never leave
A broken rose giving bloom through the cracks of the concrete
So many things for us to see
Things to be
Our history so full of tragedy and misery
To all the homies who never made it home
The dead peers i shed tattoed tears for when I'm alone
Picture us inside a ghetto heaven
A place to rest finding peace through this land of stress
In my chest I feel pain come in sudden storms
A life full of rain in this game watch for land thorns
Our unborn never got to grow, never got to see what's next
In this world filled with countless threats
I beg God to find a way for our ghetto kids to breath
Show a sign make us all believe

WHAT IS IT THAT I SEARCH FOR
I know not what I search 4
But I know I have yet 2 find it,
Because it is invisible 2 the eye
My heart must search 4 it blinded.

And if by chance I find it,
Will I know my mission is achieved?
Can one come 2 conclusions,
Before the question is conceived?

Just as no one knows
what lies beyond the shore,
I will never find the answer 2
what it is that I search 4.

YOUNG NIGGAZ

Now that I'm grown I got my mind on bein' something
Don't wanna be anotha statistic out here doin' nothin'
Tryin' to maintain in this dirty game
Keep it real and I will even if it kills me
My young niggaz stay away from these dumb niggaz
Put down the guns and have some fun nigga

Yaayee!!! 

Comment by John Potash on October 11, 2011 at 4:55am
I liked Starry Night best from those above too. It reminds me of Kidada Jones saying Tupac loved Don McClean's Starry Night about Van Gough and she played it on his death bed and his body started to shake as if fighting to wake out of his induced coma. it was so sad but i had to put it in my book because the lines were so befitting.

like the artwork and new poems added....2pac poetry is really deep, strong and feels really complete...like he was writing it to make his mind up....or express himself completely after he made his mind up...

that's a good one Tedan...wut inspired it?
