1. When I see myself
When I see me
I see me driving
A GMC or a Cadillac
But before that I got to wear these
Books on my back
I need to get an education
Because every job is dedicated with it
Education is the key to all doors
And knowledge is power
The power is yours
Use it and don’t abuse it
And that’s what I see when I see me

2. Yo he did it again
Obama took the win
In office he’s back
Republicans think it’s wack
Romney hit the road jack
Don’t come back
Not even after
Four years

Why?
Why is the world so mean?
Why isn’t the earth green?
Why do people kiss and tell?
Why do we have a place call hell?

3. Why do we do people who kill,
Wonder why they’re in jail?
Why do the government bull sh**t?
Why did take so long for Bin Latin
To get hit?
Going back to the government,
Why doesn’t the government tax
rich &
And tax poor?
I think the rich should get taxed more.

Reality
When I feel sad
Or mad,
I’ll read or write.

4. Reading is a gateway
I use to escape reality.
Writing is my only way of
Expressing myself.
When I can’t read or write
Reality is opponent
I can’t fight.
Why does reality
Have to be hard to face?
A question left unanswered,
Like the missing cure for
Cancer.

5. What is life about?
Is it nothing but
Happiness and joy
Like the joy you see
When a kid is playing with his toy
Or
Is it nothing but pain?
When you have nothing to lose
But all to gain
Or
Is it crazy and insane?
I don’t know but I know this
Life is too short and you only get one
So live loose and “ENJOY LIFE”

My love is true
When I say I love you
It’s true
I love and only you
When I say I think of you
It’s true
I think of and only of you
It’s true
When I say I dream about you and only you
My love is true, truly for you

7. Morris johns
Roses are red
Roses are red
Violets are blue
I love you
Roses are red
Violets are blue
The sky is pretty
Almost as much as you
Roses are red
Violets are blue
You love and I love you
Morris johns

8. Everything
I Do
Everything I do
Everything I do, I do for you
When I dress nice it’s for you
When I work out it’s for you
When I’m away from you
I think of you
When I write, I write for you
Everything I do, I do for you
Because I love you
Reality gateway

9. Reality is an enemy of mine
So I use reading and
Writing to escape
Him all the time
When I read my
Imagination runs away
Where we end up
Both of us feel free
In this place there’s
No suffering and
No pain, no people
Running around insane
No crime, no need to
Worry about time
But when I write
I can paint murals
With my words
I can paint a picture
Of a bird

10. A pretty bird color of blue
Flying around with nothing to do
But with my words
You can hear my bird
Hear it sing hear the bell
Ring as it fly pass
I see this bird fly in
During class
It’s like it flew off the page
Using my words I start new
AGE
