"Pointing The Finger"

"Pointing The Finger"
Written by Chi Money






way before the age of two we'd go through intervention
through moods of aggression, all we'd need to spoon wit a friend is
a way of pointing our fingers.. to recieve food and attention
new to the lessons.. finding truth in the legends, as true adolescents
father was too strict, offspring could never move fast enough
mother was too lenient, which then became used as a crutch
a child blames themselves, who's sharing half their features
as they're pointing out each other's flaws.. always staring at a finger
three stikes n yer out, so when human mistakes are to blame
and the man in uniform gives the signal.. you call foul play in the game
so we mimic legends like Babe Ruth and gesture to the fence
but aren't lookin to wear those pin stripes, n letters on our chest
the only time we really make a point of giving props
is when it's directed to the skies, to whoever's your living God
whether it's Allah, Jesus Christ, anything other then Lucifer
as he's only down to hide from being sunned by the universe
leaders point us in a direction, but when their actless quotes fail
they end up following.. YOU in, on your backs n coat-tails
breaking your back, for the money they back in wholesales
taxed n over packed in those jails, til we make a pact n prevail
so we don't trust the sytem, that we created n are livin under
somehow we lost the upper hand, even with the biggest numbers
countries reaching out to countries, mission isn't to see who's loyal
just to breech new soil, but not for land.. they need crude oil
to be obsolete constantly n keep their economy runnin
just to Rome as the first leader.. that Constantine wasn't
prophecies of monopolys that profit off alot of these drunkin
off the power of their philosophies, a bunch of Socrates buzzin
so unless cleaning up our act is our top responsibility
then testing our problems positively, is not a probability
so take your hands down, don't let them linger in despair
you can't hold it down for your beliefs wit your fingers in the air
just quit pointing, the world is in your hands to move
which you already knew..
when you followed the fingers, n they all lead back to you

"Humaliens"

"Humaliens"
Written by Chi Money





A crowd, from a planet..






round, from which they lived in.. found us in the distance
profound of our existence.. now thousands were enlisted
to touch down was the mission.. hearing sounds of demolition
jumped out of the collision.. so astounded of our livin
they've made inventions to search.. our complexion since birth
leaving a ever-lasting ripple effect, on their reflection of Earth
the lessons were worth.. the value of a different knowledge
convinced the instant they visioned no gimmiks n trick robotics
yet kids in college.. had book smarts from kindles
so when faced with a problem? they just look off n whistle
noticed our communications were becoming extinct
unless money, deceit.. weapons sellin drugs in the streets
it was a hungry disease.. so abrubtly, some were obese
heart strung out, when others played too much wit their strings
these "Aliens" had enough of these things.. now were committed
to use our powers in their power to devour the sinnin'..
now cowards were timid.. but limits were now their decision
so reached out and found the power to come out n admit it
their presence was felt.. through the news, seven to twelve..
mourning, leading.. to stories reading,
"is the origin of these extra terrestrials, heaven or hell?"..
so humans and aliens, joined forces in hand
equal, as their extra tall frames were nothin short of a man




broke down the language barrier through audibled talks
as their minds worked as one.. but had multiple thoughts
children soon forgot about the man on the cross bleeding
started cross-breeding, n seemingly everything lost meaning
that ecstasy is.. now this new species, genetically mixed
unaware of their memory, tendecies.. mentally medically risked
they had dark roots, but skin tone was opposite in comparison
unaware of their indentity.. so they got to visit therapists
some humans were moven, like "Houston? we have a problem"
searchin for spacecrafts, it'd take more then a map to stop em
knew they'd be tempted by the apple,
the question was unraveled.. the ship was stashed in Gotham!
they packed it up and blasted.. faster then a match stick
askin how they'd land it.. asses draggin on the granite
as they landed on their planet.. like they were off to be deported
scared of the new species that was too strong to be aborted
for most it was hard to understand it.. some demanded
paniced, over-reacted.. so the earth, some abandoned
some thought it was out-landish.. n were the ones the maddest
aliens only alienated, becuase they came from another planet
soon sides would form.. which would align, to confine a war
riots of tyrants wit knives n swords.. that strike with force

would this slight divorce.. turn into a cried remorse?...

the first clan, had the blackest knight on the whitest horse
they fought for Humalien Rights.. and their life of course
the second reppin of three, were known as homosapiens
who own no alias.. and anxiously hope to ghost those aliens
leading us to the last crew, who looked bred from some incest
with egos to match the size of the heads on their slim necks
Aliens were smarter, but fighting on the home field of the humans
while the appeal of humaliens were used to be conceled in illusion
these fronts only lasted so long.. cuz as the seasons changed
these family trees have aged.. leaves contained
fallin tear drops that hit the beatin graves.. that've seen the rains
claiming bad blood will be silenced.. for those who speak in vein
so after summers and winters.. each species' numbers have withered
as they were hungry for war, tasted victory.. n still hunted for dinner




on this once lovely planet, beauty explored the horizons
til the sources of violence, accordin to science.. formed an alliance
openin the door for these giants.. wit hearts, born for a lion..
ruling the world as king of the hill that was fortressed in Zion
so once the smoke cleared, and the dust settled in the ashes
these alien rebels got a meddle.. and the devil gets his mansion
these last two extra terrestrials, were the new Adam n Eve
n the first thing they went grabbin to eat.. was crispy black in the tree
famished n weak.. they have to rise from the ashes in Phoenix
startin from A-Z.. wit no tellin what they might manage to bring it




meanwhile, the part of man-kind who found the only spaceship
roamed as the only known, so noticed their new home seemed spacious
yet hard to make any sense of it.. as their eyes n ears aren't from here
forcing them to become even more then just pioneers n frontiers
what once used to rule this land.. are past as dead policies
so their fighting for a chance to advance as far as the technology
n those that didnt have connections.. isn't livin past progression
humaliens had the best of both worlds, but didn't have a heaven

"Withered Hope"

"Withered Hope"
Written by Chi Money




a prisoned clan.. from a primitive distant land
broke free from the shackles around their crimson hands
a trait left from workin their fingers to the bone
as the foundation, eager to bring a leader to the throne
built a village with a castle that had hallways.. all gold
which was also protected by a stone wall they called "Hope"
presented peace before, but centuries of war.. were heavily enforced
by all the weaponry n force.. that could never breach the source
rivals threw sticks n stones, to put their heads on a cross
and it was pieces of hope that the best of em tossed
so they stopped the negetivity and death of their boss
when those sticks n stones..
were fit to bows, n arrows.. to get the message across
this lasted generations, but hope was withering
the granit deprecation, left most considering..
a new approach to hone the stones these holes were hindering
but those arrows n litterings.. paved the roads to victory

which evil-doers destroyed to find the best of jesus
so now street by street were smashed up, broke
attacking hope as a whole, n the rest left in pieces
not knowing peace by peace they'd patch up hope..

the wall that was built, crumbled, and resused
is the rubble in the jungle we've still struggled to infuse
its a new day n age, n we'd kill to get cash gains
so the roads to success were rebuilt for the fast lane
leavin those blind to hope, to hit the gas n then swerve
as everything went black n they crashed n they burned
stars disappeared til there were no more virgos, leos..
now all you see is everyone's birthstone read: hope
sides to this wall? there were two in its history
til those on the outside.. blew it to smitherenes
wit grenades that prepelled.. to retain in our cells
which planted the walls that we create in ourselves
so to those who'll live n die by hope, n its purpose in life
whether its by the arrows, or just the courage to fight
dont see the walls in which you live, as chalking in the dirt
when hope seems it's withering.. its just evolving with the earth

"Mysterious Ways"

"Mysterious Ways"
Written by Chi Money



*7am rings an alarm*, he hops out of bed n he sighs
for another long day workin a job he would never resign
his hands on a project that would pressure his mind
to try and mold the world.. into a better design
at the same time knowing he'd need the touch of jesus
to build a modern Noah's Ark from a bunch of pieces
of brush.. n needless, to say.. his reasons to pray
keepin his faith, seein the things that are needed to change

started with the youth, stopped a young man through God n fate
but was filled wit a lot of hate.. so went ahead n robbed the bank
which landed this bandit in a cell block sedated
payin 5 years of his life to live where hell occupated
now had bigger problems, far as death was concerned
but maybe this troubled teen had some lessons to learn

he then stopped a woman in a convertible wit some chrome rims
needin material things as she wasn't comfortable in her own skin
he stripped her of these things, showin her life's true beauty
feelin good about herself without fitting in a size 2 loosely
finding out that being someone else just isnt her style
took a stand.. in front of the mirror and witnessed a smile

he couldn't question those who found answers in their liquor
but would continue to heal the hearts wit cancer in their liver
patients have the same things to fight for, no matter the disease
which most of us only come to know after we're deceased
he felt best to ask God.. with open arms if he'd lend a hand, bond
putting his foot forth, for all of those who needed a leg to stand on

even HE looked for evidence, all the way back to the pyramid days
but since we all vision God differently, he works in mysterious ways
he would accidently bump into the girl wit the low selfesteem
n drive off with "just married" on the back of a broke limousine
cuz material things are material, which can be replaced if needed
love's blind to the naked eye, only our sixth sense traits can see it
a couple years later, she would have heart complications
an old friend who he held close, made him a heart to heart obligation
he made her feel confident in life when the only thing hypothetical was livin
as she had been living with a very rare type of medical condition
she looked at him, held her chest and offered an organ
if they would take in and raise her daughter named Morgan
expressing how hard it was to agree when he'd see his theropist
cuz they always wanted a child... but had 3 miscarriages
now the boy that robbed that bank, came out wit a hateful revenge
wasnt able to rest.. cuz ever since he was in a cradle was stressed
as he walked down the street, he saw this man from 5 years ago
stuck a gun to his lungs, as this man of faith cried tears of hope
he sighed, cleared his throat.. n sent em to the pearly gates
but that's cuz God had a job for him bigger then the earth could face
the man wit the gun in his hand, would soon face this crime in trial
which showed his blind eyes the white light that led him to find the bible
cuz even though he didnt write the book.. he felt like he could
rewriting history as he took over the job of the man's life he took
the widowed wife told their little girl, cuz all teens get curious
if you remain clueless to blessings, they'll always seem mysterious

"Tomorrow's Yesterday"

"Tomorrow's Yesterday"
Written by Chi Money


A scientist, chemist... tryin' inventions
branching out artificial wings to fly in the heavens
but in the living flesh, was bound to fall to his knees
so just became a ghost... lost in the breeze

(but in order to see a better way..
lets go back to Today's yesterday)

he thought he could change the past n have the glory, so..
grabbed his pen n pad, threw on his thinkin cap, n labratory coat
strained his brain, to screen out the greatest of facts
as he then looked deep within to find a way in the past
but by trying to change whats already been plotted after
meant he was going about everything he wanted backwards
instead of stoppin the bleedin n patchin things up..
he wanted to stop the man that went BLAM
and all the bullets that came from that black machine gun
he would build himself up with his thoughts in action
pedaling towards the eye of the storm's fog with passion
to reach tommorrow's yesterday, better then today's
as now the world as we know it, never was the same...



he traveled n changed the past, wit better designs
not knowing he made things evolve way ahead of their time
cured death, making the planet over populated
turnin beasts into theives, now famished ogres rob the nation
stripped the land.. of all pure kindess
like quotes from grandma that she offered, like this
"dont talk unless you have something nice to say"
so all that was left was an awkward silence...
the guns he brought back to the part of the past wit nothin
were now today's nucleur weapons of mass destruction
saved MLK to JFK, so we wouldnt have to grive in descretion
which shortened the life of their message, as it weakened the legend
we needed these lessons.. I hate to say sacrifice
but we were sent here for a reason, n have to face the fate we have in life
now in tomorrow's yesterday, we face a new situation
we too can reach the stars, but through limitations
so before the blast, this new wave of the future
was beyond time travel and the ways of computers
but to avoid repeating the past, you dont need the whole details
just know it would then be led, by what is now a three year old female
who will soon be the next scientist, chemist..
that has to invent a way to make things right in this second..

"A Love Patient"

"A Love Patient"
Written by Chi Money


born in a city where her lust for love, these sins shackled
knowing very well God warned her not to touch the Big Apple
the first boy she'd meet, goes back a ways now
where they'd grow as one, hold hands n play house
both were so young, lookin forward to the rest of their lives
as they would then fall in love.. way a head of their time
she was about to be 8, invited him to her birthday bash
not knowing it would come to be the worst day had
cuz he had a jerk face Dad.. who got shit faced on bacardi
and killed his son in a car crash, on the way to her party
wishing to see the light again, as she blew out the candles
sitting in the forshadows of her life, as still two of em crackled




become overwelmed, as she traveled in nature
carrying a coach bag.. but got bagged by the players
dated out the clubs with those who couldnt walk the walk, wasted
now aware that she was looking for love in all the wrong places
she'd tried finding a relationship, before finding herself
close to losing what she has left, like her mind n her health..
all the while in her journal, she jotted down her trials n tribulations
mistakes, verses new life long lessons.. creating a bible of innovation
her smile? instantaneous.. when she met a new love
after that new high it gave her, like it was the next to do drug
but then got tired of the rush, so quit wit the pain it withdrawls
getting closer to living in her own shadows, that painted the walls
 




she then noosed the strings, to her newest swing
had a new perspective, yet the view confused her dreams
n everything she knew, it seemed.. but choosed to see
the useless things.. that now werent as big as they used to be
so as her heart grew diseased.. love was the only remedy
growing old, she's seventy.. holding memories as a lonely entity
after tons of times, the love she'd find, she hoped was magical
making the most compatible.. broke, not even close to casual
but lookin back, she wouldn't have lived it any differently
even when she passed the pearly gates n was hit wit an epiphany
...found her soul mate from the past, who's last age was seven
so as their eyes met again.. it was truly a match made in heaven




wit the final chapter of her life
she turned the last page, which sentenced
a forshadowing that she'd write
with her past ways as reference

"A Touch Of Gray"

"A Touch Of Gray"
Written by Chi Money



a creative mind, creates designs
so he raised his eyes, to paint the skies
but only saw sunshine or cloudy days
could only keep his head up or drown in rain
life out the window, tear drops roll down the pain
so broke out some paint that soaked out the frame
etched in stone.. was his notes to jesus
his intellegent touch was a stroke of genius
bringing to life, flat lands to canyons
as there was no middle ground for this man to stand in
but mind was colorblind, only saw black n white
sittin under the moon with his canvas by
standin by, until he would turn middle aged
n the dark hair on his light skin would turn a little gray
the pictures he painted, used to lack depth
til he put on the shades that would aid his last sense
had a new perspective, viewing from an open mind
as he approached to find everything he hoped in life
had to keep a straight mind, level with himself
cuz these pencils n pastels he wrestled with as well
found a problem, but more then two ways of goin at it
so composed a classic on a broken canvas
to show the masses what hes grown to grasp with
through the mid tones that honed stones to ashes
as eraser dust.. he hates as much
took his vision to another level.. as he raised the brush
to the big picture, now in high definition
dispised repetition..
which in light, gave new life recognition
to ratify what pacified half his life's wonders
now was inticed to give life through vibrant colors
his artform spoke a million words, yet too much to say
so brushed through a ton of paints, to become a saint

and signed his name at the bottom, with a touch of gray..

"The Masks We Wear"


"The Masks We Wear"
Written by Chi Money

covered beauty, Maybelene
our styles soul, is ankle deep
fake faces, can hold up a lie
and pass judgement in a roll of an eye

we live under these masks, to blanket the flaws
putting to rest the emotions we hate face'n at all
boss steady trippin, got em pissed n embarrassed
he'll smile wit an animal instinct, grin it n bear it
to get those trips as an heiress, tickets to Paris
visioned since a kid when he lived wit his parents
but he hated these masks, that weighed his emotions
which made him more then two faced wit his notions
now mainly devoted to maintaining his focus
in a texas hold'em tournement, contiplating his motives
was dealt a bad hand, but still raised the risk
chasing charades, taking every players chips
limits would double until their image was humbled
vintage in an instant from the minute he hustled
but still starved for power.. took the cash of weak souls
saw his darkest hours.. through a mask wit three holes

he opens his eyes, to tunnel vision
and black clouds the sun'll live in
light to the touch, blind to whats real
as deep dark secrets, he tries to unveal

he then met a girl, wit a face of an angel
who would get laid out from Cain cuz she's Abel
changed up her angle.. n he saw a new side
through the perspective lost in the softest blue eyes
these masks he tries to dicipher, dying beside her
slips on another fighting the fire, he'd light n inspire
now shes cutting it close, in a surgeons mask
with his feelings on the table she was workin at
deep down he hurt, his soul opened in part
as there was nothin to cover the hole in his heart
the doctor of love couldn't patch em up risk free
cuz these layers we put on... are only skin deep
the makers of these masks, pattened a killin
he was the robin to the batman, but acted a villian
always played bad to the bone, so it was no wonder
the mask didnt fit accordingly with his very own structure

ego's cover made him feel bad ass
but there was nothin to touch his olive skin
as he gasps from his last mask,
that was pumpin him up.. wit oxygen

"Through The Eyes Of Illusion"

"Through The Eyes Of Illusion"
Written by Chi Money



they feed us lies that appetize our minds, all in alignment
wit the eyes we uprise to a world full of false advertisements
products strong as steel, but now everything retail is plactic
free? only to those blind to the small printed details n asteriks
happy to be alive, but where does the pain go when it dies
are there halos in disguise, above the rainbows in the sky?
its like everythings deligated to be seperated and segragated
politicians run for office, too drunk wit power to be designated
they say life isnt a party, but its something to be celebrated
food for thought?.. well..
eggs in a fryin pan is how your brain on drugs is demonstrated
these natural imperfections, get on our last nerves it seems
so half the earth we see.. acts urgently to have mass surgeries
we put on fake smiles, n wave high to our nice neighbors
as we throw ourselves out there, in a sacraficed nature
shot down a million times, but inadvertantly will try later
always chipping away at our insecurities wit ice breakers

our vision is foggy, in clear blue skies
fallen tears of joy, is what we hear through cries
dying to live, since our days of birth
as lost souls, find a place on earth

we become big headed as our brains slowly turn abscess
through subliminal messages, that have no return address
hungry for attention, some starve for some friends
but it was both Barbie n Ken that started the trend
as picture perfect... could only be framed
cloning humane, as if no one notices change
no strings attached... is how most of us love it
while the free world we live in is controlled by a puppet
do we love our companions, or are we lusting for a connection
desperate to make it honest, now trusting is an obsession
some want to see it to believe it, so heaven is questioned
til deaths in its presence, n they beg the revrend for vengence
finding these visions are more then a figment of our imagination
overcoming the impossible was the mission of our facinations
as are sight is amused wit, the world our mind is infused in
while we're all constantly living through the eyes of illusion

so with the mind of Confucius
I try to get through this
inclined high as my view is
I sigh, n keep movin

"Life In A Flash"

"Life In A Flash"
Written by Chi Money


since the day this star was born, white lights were flashin
til even the eyes of the wise have their hindsight distracted
as you can only see so much when the lens is on zoom
all the friends in the room.. have their presence in loom
this entertainer who always craved the attention
would soon change his direction when he faced his reflection
made for perfection.. on magazine covers
as tradegy hovers sanity, n numbers of families suffer
yet still the media frenzies.. over the gleam of a bentley
scratch n claw for a glance to find out the seats are all empty
lost his ways in the lights that took his every moment
n scared away his shadow as it over looked his every omen
they love a rise n fall, everyday from dusk to dawn
used to love his songs.. now just talk bout how he busts the law
so you'd have to end up in some institute or hellish prison
just to get on Dr.Phil and get another interview on television
you dont know how obnoxious it gets.. watchin these pricks
profit from chicks.. topless in the tropics n shit
standing around kiss asses as fake props in the pics
wouldn't mind the flashes, if it was all in moderation
causin' obligations, that caught the smallest observations
but good or bad publicity, his name would grow to rise
they knew how to twist stories, but that was no surprise
now walks the back alleys, to stay clear of of the madness
finding there's even more trouble that appeared in the blackness
then those same lights flashed, as he wasnt alert
the mugger ran off n threw some blood on his shirt
cops said freeze! you have the right to remain silent
as he screamed, "im not the type to display violence"
soon as the victim knew who it was, she pointed the finger
sayin the boy that just beat her, had the voice of a singer
which he made mistakes but had morals and strong electives
even the photos were seeing things from the wrong perspective
then hopped in the squad car, feelin like OJ Simpson in his truck
the news chopper couldnt miss it, had the vision from above
stayin in the fast lane, headed off a bridge wit a budge
cuz it was known footage of this could make millions of bucks
so he was chased by the world til he was colder then death
n media was the monster that pushed him over the edge
not knowin even the greatest pictures can't grasp our pride
so after thinkin back to Princess Diana in her last car ride
family photos flashed by his eyes, where the smiles were real
as the rest were just compiled through computer files in steel..

"The Goods"

"The Goods"
Written by Chi Money


he was born Victorious, yeah.. that was actually his name
grew up the hometown hero where his whole family was raised
magically became, a maverick in the game.. of both life n sports
threw spirals wit the slightest force, n mind was bright of course
was an all star QB, who wouldnt pass on runnin like a half back
he had all The Goods, so it seemed there was nothin he was bad at
so were some jealous of his math skills? you prolly would wonder
but oddly the others, would praise him like he was godly wit numbers
which in a way made em stay over qualified, for any job that he pleased
who in their right mind would swap a degree, for a mop n some keys
that'll lock up his dreams..
 
cuz now he has elegant ways, of displaying his intellegent ways
planned to be President, n be greeted by "your excellence", wait..
he would still wrestle the weight, of the devil's restraints
but developed a strength, that put hell n its rebels in a hell of a place
as knowledge is power.. preachin his word, he would prophet for hours
that power was the obvious founder, that led him to profit from powder
and the relevance was eery, in college was a chemist wit a theory
would sell meth to methodists, just to get dead presidents, which clearly
sealed his fate, behind steel grid gates, n couldnt appeal a real debate
so still he ate, those meals he hates, from these greezy filthy plates
see why? *rewinds* lets reel the tapes..
 
was so in debt could box his bills while fightin for a dollar, shit
granted he was livin, but was still dyin for a scholarship
so when push came to shove, he was pushin a whole gang
had the goods in the dope game, in the hood sellin cocaine
overlooked was his own brain.. even though he stood tall
wit a 4.0 gpa, n was the best around to throw a football
while his reflections, hit the smith n wesson his fist was clenchin
he knows he must of missed a lesson, n would never get elected
cuz he was runnin for office, sellin lies under the table
offered an escape til he became like one wit the angels
cuz his way of thinkin, paved the streets in.. tasteless treason
til faith then reached his, place of peace, by the grace of Jesus

"If These Walls Could Talk"


"If These Walls Could Talk"
Written by Chi Money


a hassled man wit fragile hands, paid a proud nation
to build me up as the foundation, of which this castle stands
imagination grew curious, of why the sky is the limit
so these walls hit the sky n beyond your site within minutes
all kinds of these women with somethin to prove in their life
are programed with confused dudes in a fly, suit n a tie
soon to provide illusional sites through Lucifer's eyes
but what their losin' is time.. and the lust of it all
so start cuttin corners, til they find the blood on the wall
the drugs n the straw.. guns in the vault..
duckin it all, talkin bout how he wasnt involved..
n had the same answers when flames enraged faster
up the walls that supported what he was incaged after
those walls were rebuilt, but since nothin is free
or obstucted to cease the construction of greed
green turned to power that made him drunk n he screamed
got bored n aggravated, waitin to fullfil his facinations
while his ego got carried away, along with his imaginations
he shuffled right by me, with out a care in the world
on the way to take advantage of this scared little girl
who's screams for help then carried through the walls
barely knew at all, but appearantly her calls..
made it to the saviours that came tearing through the halls
defense preparing to involve, those sharing who's at fault
but dna of stupidity smeared between the ceiling n floors
kneeling beforth, a force that never seemed appealing before
so as he woulda Madoff wit profits, striaght off deposits
of names lost in closets, that were taped off in boxes
guilty of ignoring his surroundings, 25 to life was given
so once the walls closed in, he had all the time to listen
then started talkin to the walls wit the voices in his brain
became voided as insane, pourin poison in his veins

YEARS LATER...

got doses of reality, once he left those clickin gates
grounded in a sound proof room, wit his pessemistic ways
but if i cant talk, why your ears pressed against my face?
respected his surroundings as he found death's a livin place
yet his best descriptive traits were left in written slates
ten incrypted plates that were read from prison mates...

but he slurred words right before they heard his breath go
saying, "these walls can talk... n im stuck in a stir of echoes".......

"Reaching For Perfection"

"Reaching For Perfection"
Written by Chi Money aka Chi Zilla

this seed was planted, cuz indeed we were famished..
so anything out of reach seemed to be the dreams were grabbin..
climbin to the apple of my eye, clawin til my arms 'er hurtin..
as I got my sights on something flawless but im far from perfect..
and i know I'm reachin for a sin, so I ask n I plead gawd..
you know I got a further climb to go then jack n the bean stalk..
askin to be lost, just to find the answer in a timeless manner
findin the highest ladder to rise a defiant master,
but filled my eye's wit patterns of a slight disaster
til my mind was battered but still kept climbin faster..
to find the pasture of all kinds of matter, so as i cried wit laughter..
i proceeded to eat, leaves n this beef, season after season it seems..
the reason he clings, to this tree that he swings to what seems within reach..

through out all the lands he kept growing
..left knowing it'd flourish if the light kept glowing
but to adapt so it can have the chance to last longer
..windy days n black clouds made the plant stronger
n to reach its peak, n eat, you had to hit the pinnacle
..its weakenst point, so the chance of it is minimal

watering down a few, plants of life with the fountain of youth
scene thousands of views to prove there were mountains to move
dying but surviving in a jungle, where animals want ya food
in the grass, movin fast up the branch, tactical wit their moves
years would go by, and now he is turning old n grey
still holds his ways, hopes n prays for golden rays
now so decayed, is his body and the life he has built
never were his eyes filled wit guilt, just pride mixed with will
to rise up and still, reach the place he was destined
that bitter sweet feeling of victory he tasted in heaven
tried so many ways to make it sway in his direction
was great in many ways, but still had days of imperfection
n livins hard, so as my head hit the bark, to take a nap..
beneath the tree, n the deceased being, laid an axe..

a lost child, who walked across miles
...of the long Nile which was a mark of his strength
he was blood to him, but the lust of sin
...caused pressure that scarred his heart within vein
but he wasnt helpless n rebelious as hell is
...just a guy in a crisis starvin for change
odds came n he got change in God's name
...part of the same, family tree his carcus remained
