I'll get things kicked off.



I can't be judge by man or even judged by God

The only one who can judge me is the creator of God

So u can throw me in jail take away my liberty

But freedoms in the mind I hope U hearing this with clarity

But freedoms in the mind I hope U hearing this with clarity

I'mjust a black man not a case for charity

As I'm released from the ultimate ways of controlling

How thought provoking do I own what i'm holding

How thought provoking do I own what I'm holding

And you look at me as if I am joking

But why is this so hard for you to see

When all I need is for you to say you agree with me


I'm back and ready to attack.

When all I need is for you to say you agree with me

But of all thecults/religions on Earthis there 1 true belief

Still feeling used,caged and restricted

Opposite tide to the world - truly conflicted

I'll have fun on my own.





Opposite tide to the world - truly conflicted

But who Am I fooling

Trying not to portray what others have depicted

When its with myself that I find my self duelling

When its with myself that I find my self duelling

But still ambitious and active so my body i'm fuelling

To go far, as far as my imagination can grasp

I aimed for the sky and ended up reaching the stars

I aimed for the sky and ended up reaching the stars

Tohopefully realise that dream that seem so far

And not forget, that my life is ajar

But on I will go, until you see, that I have reached that place where I longed to be.

But on I will go, until u see, that I have reached the place where I longed to be

And that is a place surroundedby myextended family

Asking "why?" to the wrongs in reality it seems...

I should be asking "why not?" to the utopia I see in my dreams

i should be asking "why not?" to the utopia i see in my dreams,

I mean what i say, but often not say what i mean,

we always argue and strife for equality,

instead on concentrating on being what we aim to be,

But life is never really fair


So why should I not bother to care

When all I'm asking for, is a listening ear.

When all I'm asking for,is a listening ear
to express to you my sorrows,and fear.
Life seems hopeless,there is somuch pain
is it just me,or is the whole world insane?

Walking next to those that seem so unconscious

But surely they can see the pain that still remains

And hope that one day we putright what wronged us

And hope that one day we put right what wronged us

And loosen ourselves from the invisible binds;

We'll progress with ease, and not struggle to find

What we think we have lost, which lays hidden in our minds


Coco makes the heart grow fonder...
or maybe just grow to want to kill yourself.
