WET CHICKEN

The teacher warned me about you
Your just another cackling fool
The smell of you is just not cool

Wet chicken
Not enough sense to get out of the rain
Wet chicken
Always looking for someone to blame

Sitting on your stoop not minding what you do
So privileged sitting above everybody
If told to, you would eat the president's poop

Wet chicken
Not enough sense you got no shame
Wet chicken
Living in lire's cage, you gave your freedom away

Farmer Don whoring you out just for scrambled eggs
Taken advantage of one day will cost you thigh and a leg
You will be the Kentucky fried fool to the winning team he will serve you

Wet chicken
Strutting with nothing to do
Wet chicken
A FOX will make a fool of you and eat you

QUALITY OF ME

In a place of no reputation, I look to my own destination
These dreams in this life are the cream, but there is much more to me

Quality of me
We all have dreams, we all have needs
But what is different about me goes so deep
Seeing the value in time looking forward to the next day's light

Work ethic is not about giving and taking
It is the value I get from a job well done
Even when I am the only one

Quality of me
Time should never wait on me
I should be in the moment and ready for anything
Every day should be about reality

Just because you give less
That is no reason for me not to be limitless
Service towards others shouldn't be faked

Quality of me
I might have feelings, but that doesn't make me weak
I am a soul with a higher purpose for humanity to be set free
Verifying every thought deep in my heart this is me

Only a fool thinks the world revolves around just one
Peace is not made from a gun it come from unconditional love
The soul never get tired even when it runs

Quality of me
I might have doubts, but that isn't what I am about
I have needs there much more than anything you can see

NOTES:

PRIVILEGED LIFE

This life feels like it has maid wrong turn to our destination
Thinking the next turn will be our real liberation
No one thinking they just blindly listening
Responsibility is placed on the victim, for that there is no forgiving

Privileged life
Threaten by other people enjoying life
As they cut barbecue with a knife

A closed mind is closed to the diversity of life
It is a threat to the boredom of uncultured traditions
Pride in hate does not make anyone great

Privileged life
Threaten by historical truths who really owned whom
When true love was found jumping over the broom

What is marriage the beginning to everlasting romance
Or a contract where you only get half as the lawyers laugh
Unconditional love should be the goal of everyone

Privileged life
When there is proof you are wrong
But you lie with the same old song

Stick a needle in your eye there no way to explain your lie
Step on a crack to break your mother's back (is that what Sarah's children try to do?)
With no job you lost all your pride all you got is time

GAZE

She got the walk you think you got the line
But you can't talk for you she is too fine

Gaze
You got no game
Gaze
You just so lame
With that gaze

Why you look at her that way
Like she is some kind of prey

Gaze
What you got to say
Gaze
When you see her every day
Look away with that gaze

You might be hooked on her looks
Got to get to know her so read her like a book

Gaze
This life is a maze
Gaze
If you want some
Personel fun is more than that gaze

Her feminity is a strength it will make you weak
Her voice so strong knowing right from wrong

Gaze
Can't hide from those dark eyes
Gaze
If you don't listen to the truth, it is just noise
This world is mine, and yours hold that gaze

FIRST OF JUNE

Legend a rumor puts shame to my name
As the Kingsmen sing it every day
They still get paid as it fades with age

First of June
I am still the same
But everything is new

Sharing my birthday with flag fondling tyrant
Don't want to be associated with that
My conception is a good reason for calibration

First of June
I just want to hear that new tune
Just want to feel that muse

Art is where it all starts
Something this cool has nothing to prove
Keep doing what you do

First of June
I got to find my own path
No need for directions from any man

Get up and dance like you got, soul
Just want to let you know you are a soul
Now let everyone know

First of June
With responsibility in life knowing what to do
Just want to be in that mediated mood

BOY INSIDE

So afraid think I've lost my way
Every day in secret I would pray
Is anyone listening? what would they say

Some times I dream some times I lie
What I can truly be, I hide
From this boy inside

My darkest day my brightest nights
Looking at these words, I write
Will, they ever have their own life

Caught in a dream captured in a lie
Finding my way through life is the real fight
For this boy inside

Traveled the world to know who I am
Got to learn to be my own friend
This I need to do, in this journey with no end

Reasons I dream, reasons I lie
What in life can I say is mine
Who is this boy inside

I am much older now
Living with a lifetime of doubts
Still learning what I am all about

Is it me that dreams? Is it me that lies?
Too afraid to reach for that prize
To give to that boy inside

KISS AWAY

Didn't forget how to pray
Didn't lose my way
I just don't claim a title or name

My thoughts of you come and go through the day
I just sit still inside and out thoughts of you light the way
It is just a reminder your just a kiss away

Sacrilegious is a myth when we don't forgive
We celebrate the torture of the son when killing is a sin
I just don't want to play those games

I try to control my thoughts and the way I talk
Just to be a good person is all I want
It is a reminder your just a kiss away

Preacher tells me the path to a place he has never been
Saturday laying with sister juice fruit
Sunday claiming to be better than you

Don't want to hide when I have nothing to prove
To be what you see in me is all I can strive to do
It is reminder your just a kiss away
