Changing Ways
CHANGING
WAYS
No
New Year’s resolution for me
No
promises that my demons desist
Less
time focusing on streets
More
time focusing on degrees
Evaluate
the benefits in me and
more
time running in my cleats
Not
so many people understand me
A
few more just my family
Not
so many people wanna help me
But
I’m gonna focus on my health and wealth
Less
running my mouth
More
taking it down
Less
running the streets
More
running in cleats
Change
after all… is good
Change
after all
Is
all I know
Gotta
make
This
time positive
Before
it goes.
Nameless....Angel
Nameless….Angel
Nameless Angel,
it’s
been 3 years since I been witchu
I remember them nights when I
stepped
down
and cried for you
you
was only 13 and I was 14
you
were too slow for those bullets
to miss you
lately
I’ve been sleepin’
dreaming about you
and
I ain’t talking about
those good times
I’m talking about July 27
when I saw
you on the floor bleedin’
your heart out
just
to say I left that lifestyle go
but not sincerely
I
did some hatred crimes so
I could feel you, bro
I’m silver lining just to
feel
you again
we
was once rivals but we’ve
become more than friends
and I sit here locked
up
wasting my time saying less
but this tag on me says
nameless
because I don’t know who I
am…
without you nameless Angel
and
sometimes I wonder
is Florida even
safe for me to be out there
being called a thug is not
something
I wanna be called this year
Nameless Angel, hopefully
later down
the line I’ll be able to see
you
up there.
Dog Leash
Dog Leash
Dog leash
oh god, please help get these
dang fleas
cause
I’m stripped of my freedom
and I can’t speak
every time I try to bark
it’s like I’m make believe
they scream “SIT”
I follow
they scream “TALK”
I bark
short temper little dog
but my heart not small
I’ve been through hell and
back
I mean look at my inside it
be nothing but straight black
I give you the puppy’s eye
so you could see through my
damn eyes
yeah, I know you don’t gotta
tell me though
my world is like a fallen
galaxy cause I can’t even
navigate through it
Oh god, please help me get
these
dang fleas
cause I’m tired of being
pulled
by this here leash….
Turn Back Time
Turn Back Time
If I could turn back time
Nine years ago
I would fix my thought process
If I could turn back time
To tell somebody I needed help
I wouldn't be writing this
poem
If I could turn back time
To tell everyone the truth
I would be in a better
position
If I could turn back time
To tell my mom I love her
I would do this in a heartbeat
Now read from bottom to top
And see what I would do now
If I could turn back time
Not Giving Up
I
Made this Poem Because I Want to Let Everyone Know I’m Not Giving
Up
It’s hard to get from here
to there
If you never get out of bed
You lie a lot to fool your
friends
But you fooled yourself
instead.
It’s harder to get from here
to there
If you set your goals too high
Then nothing ever works out
right
Too soon you no longer try.
But the hardest way to get
from here to there
Is when all you ever do
Is count up the years and
miles to go
Then you’re through before
you’re through
So how do you get from here to
there
Well you first must believe
you can
Let no one tell you
differently
Its your life and its in your
hands.
Then turn your dreams into
your goals
And see what you need now
To satisfy the requirements:
The why, the where, and the
how.
At first you’re overwhelmed,
of course
There is so much you don’t
know
But keep your faith, be strong
and sure
For you do have a way to go.
Take careful steps and do them
right
Take pride in each thing done
Don’t look to far ahead of
yourself
Just that next step yet to
come.
Before you know it you’ll be
there, friend
Your dreams will then be real
And you’ll be standing where
I am now
Telling others how good it
feels.
You’ll tell them not to quit
themselves
To have faith, though it’s
hard to bear
So they will know it can be
done
They, too, can get from here
to there.
