(poem)

Pain and sorrow in my soul


From the lies you told to me


Can you see the struggle in my movement and eyes


A strange life of misery


Feeling so alone inside


But crowded on the out


Blame me for being so ruthless


Shame me for the bad things I did in the past


Tame my mind from thinking so shallow


For I'm so weak that I live in your shadow


I've lost myself in your rules and can't be found


But still I'm bound to you


Infatuated in you


But you don't feel the same


We love differently


You believe that hitting me is love


That a woman is supposed to surrender to her man for all to give


And if little as an opinion slips out my mouth i would get beat til my mouth swelled shut


But i can't leave


I can't escape from what I know


I can't go out into that cruel world and expect everything to magically be fine


So I suck it up and take the beating you give

Half Day Of School (poem)

Yes it's a Thursday n' it's a half day
Seems like the last day
of school
Niggaz be fightn' n' actn' a fool
Boo hoo cryn' cuz they got whooped
Gun shot buyn' that's why these people dyin

Lyin to protect themselves
Phony ol' niggaz that's why they got them masks

Laughn' so hard cuz they got you on these pointless trails

Tryn' yo best not to slip
Dip into the game of gangsta
Goin insane cuz you in the game
N' this shxt just to much for you so you try to get out

But Wait!
Once you step in ain't no steppn' out
Either you in the streets or you die on the streets
Which is it gon't be?

Yo so called "peepz" makin' you chose
Got a mother and two brother's so you got hellaz to loose
But in this game it's either you get killed by other's or by yo own people
You say I can't take this shxt nomo n' ya'll have a shoot out

Well we all know who gon't win
Betray the gang or kill a friend...

See how they betray you
You go all out for the niggaz n' they end up fuckn' you!

Now you see how these wanna be gangsta'z be havin on they mask
To bad you had to die to realize them foolz

It all started with a Half Day Of School
