"Tha Poet"
It's a special occasion- My presence is a gift,
It's a lyrical cup of knowledge- Put it to your mouth- Now sip.
I been struggling for too long- And speaking many words,
Wrote so many poems- And I still haven't been heard.
I still haven't received- The credit that I feel I deserve,
And it's burning inside- So I'm forced to release it,
It's right in front of your face- But you still can not see it.
If that's the case, then don't touch it- Leave it.
It wasn't meant for you- But keep this day in mind,
The day that I hypnotized you- With mesmerizing rhymes.
It's impressive how I do this- Sometimes surprising me,
But this is my expressive "music"- It never fails at reviving me.
From the death-like phase- Commonly called depression,
When I put my miracles on this page- Every word you read is a blessing.
I'm giving the world presents- You should accept my presence,
It's a rare glance at history- A rhyme writing heaven.
Remember this name- Tha Poet- Short and concise,
But straight to the point- Because I will rise.
Above the hard times- And the obstacles deployed,
The stage is set for my rising- Sit back and enjoy.
18 years ago I entered- July 2-7,
The day the world was blessed- With the birth of a Living Legend.
"Tha Poetic Son"
The time is here, no longer can I wait
I've walked in the bowels of the earth, taking all I can take
Wait!
Listen up to what I have to say
Understand the scriptures you read now...
Will one day be considered great
They're written by a man where brightness is his fate
When looking in his direction...
All you see is success's glow in his face
Ohhhhhh - That's me
Im the individual who's future is set in stone-
By lyrics, life, and poetic poetry
Come on!
Walk with me - Talk with me
Sit and spark this lyrical L with me
As we proceed to release our pain and misery
Giving the world, what we've known since the planting of our seeds
A living legend is how most should look at me
If I died today, my words would live on
Conspiracy theories like Pac - No one could except that Im gone
So I write on, and flow on - The pen never stops
Frequently flowing till the sky decides to drop
Not!
Even then Id continue...
Callabing with the best, Nikki, Maya, and the unbelievable Langston Hughes
So as I said before...
Walk with me, talk with me - Try on my poetic shoes
Feel a piece of heaven - As I consider you all brethren
And never forget this encounter - With a living legend
