Born Sinner

Nothing’s ventured, nothing’s gained
Nothing feels right in this infinite world
This life is a strict teacher
Everyday i turn the page in this examination
Am i here for material possessions or spiritual virtues?
Or to hide behind a metaphor, what am i here for?

Half way out of my mind, half of me is malicious
Vicious life, harsh life
Half of the kids on this troubled estate
Are baby daddies, yolo dons, college fuckups
A black blossoming flower raised in dirt diamond dirt
Grew up in insanity, struggled in poverty
With no dough to show, felt depraved and low

It’s a dog eat dog world, I keep digging myself into a horrible hole
Fell in love with a whore, a broad
And I couldn’t afford, temporary pleasures
She was a rough rider, i was a sensual kisser
I made power trips to see her, which were an arm and a leg
Distance was a bitch, but I knew she had that golden glow
To drag dark stones that were submerged in my crooked smile

I keep securing my spot with the devil
The devil is intelligent
Bad sweet sins feel soo good
But yet soo wrong
I’ve got to repent a marathon, that’s soo long
But what’s the point if I’m going to do it again
I guess I’m just a born sinner

My home was hell, fell down 7 times down the stairs
My alcoholic abusive step father
Slashed, whipped and beat me
Strangled, fought to kill me
At times i felt like God didn’t like me

My sweet sins were not roses, i saw myself as twisted thorns
My real dad died in a car crash
I was soul shattered, soo lost and soo gone
A black blossoming flower, raised in dirt diamond dirt
I hated the night time because destructive thoughts
Would haunt me and torment me
In all directions, trouble followed me
Left, right and centre

The demons in my psyche wanted me dead
The hood put a lucrative price on my head
Girly ghosts under my bleeding bed were my imaginary friends
The silence would whisper tortuous pain
And all my life i was infatuated with shining lust
Thinking it was eternal love

Broke promises, broke hearts
Slept with many, trusted none
Sold some bricks, brought some ice
Told sweet nothings, handed over some dreams
Walked with regret in my pocket
My surface, solid, hard as a rock
But deep down in my valley i was dying a thousand deaths

Deep down in my heart, I’m a fighter
Released the pen’s pain like a writer
Self hate ran through me, so I burnt myself with a lighter

 I keep securing my spot with the devil
The devil is intelligent
Bad sweet sins feel soo good
But yet soo wrong
I’ve got to repent a marathon, that’s soo long
But what’s the point if I’m going to do it again
I guess I’m just a born sinner

At times i felt to runaway but where would i run to?
Boxed in the land of the snakes
Friendship fakes, family fakes
And all i had was poetry
Only she knows what’s right for me
She was there for me, when no one else was there for me
Been through soo much at a young age
And she was there to soak in the words on the page

I guess I’m just twisted thorns repenting for ravishing roses
I guess I’m just a born sinner

Read between the lines

It’s an error how I was born in this era
Ahead of my time, like I’ve seen my future before
Made some mistakes, I’ll possibly make some more
I’m sinfully good, like an angel with demons
Painting a picture with words, a poetical Picasso

Travelling solo, not influenced by yolo
I don’t need to fit in; I don’t need to wear polo
Addicted to fatal attractions, material distractions
Narrating to God my sins, Qiyamah is around the corner
Generator to generate, elevate, motivate this generation is needed
Embedded behind these covers is my dark side, my love side
Labyrinth of thoughts, emotions in a maze going through a faze
Abandoning temporary things, adopting a long term mind set

Set up my trust to be sceptical of everything
Me & the mirror have mutual differences
Searching deeper for the soul of the man in the mirror
Punishing myself with criticism, faults & terror

If you dig deep into my poetry, you’ll find diamonds
Gold minds in these gold mines
Treasures to distract the scars
I’m two clouds away from the stars

Dreams imprisoned in a cage is my fear of failure
I’m rough around the edges, fighting the shackles of laziness
Mind is a closed warehouse full of craziness
In a perfect world with imperfect people
Imperfectly understood
Thirsty for knowledge but high on lust

Tired of living in this matrix
Tired of making effort with effortless
Worth soo much more than worthless
Put my Foot through the door, they will adore
My leg in the end will make me a (legend)
My circle gets smaller day by day
Praying to the lord everyday
Through thick & thin I’ll find a way

A world living off promises sold by professional liars
I don’t want sweet sorrows, just friendly fires
Black on black romance, my eternal desires

Real is just not real anymore
Dishonesty is everywhere, trust isn’t here anymore
Fornication everywhere, love is just not here anymore
Ignorance is everywhere; knowledge is just not here anymore

Read between the lines
My poetry is deep like gold mines
Read between the lines
You can’t put me in a box or veil me behind these blinds
Read between the lines
It’s you that I want, mind, body & soul
Can’t you see my struggles to obtain you as my lifetime goal?
Read between the lines
Time is my enemy, my inner me is battling my other me
What I love soo much is killing me
What I yearn for soo much is confusing me

Opinions couldn’t begin to define me
My heart defines me, truth hurt me
Fate has me, chasing success verily
Trying not to panic, I’m a hopeless romantic
Hopelessly out for quality & respect
Expect me to make a mistake
Take me as I’m, what you see is what you get
Read between the lines

More than a woman

If canoodles could make everything better, I would give you tongue tied trillions
I don’t think you understand what you mean to me
The world only see’s your inner broken mirrors, but you’re beautiful to me
I don’t care about your size, I don’t care about what media emphasize

The average Joe would possibly try to change your image
But you’re beautiful to me
Nobody seems to understand the picture you paint, but you’re Mona Lisa to me
Everything about you locks me, locks me up deeply

Your intelligence sparks a revolution within me
Your words smoothen my mind like a metaphorical massage
Every time you compliment me, my head explodes into tiny little flowers
I know your past was bitter sweet, tears of molten heat

But I’m here to prove to you, I’m different
I’m not a smoker or a drinker, just a lover and a thinker
I don’t do groupies; I’m hardly with my male friends
My feelings are never buried, I keep honesty on display
There is no doubt, whenever I look into your enchanting eyes

I see a fabulous future with you
There’s soo many fishes in the sea
But none of them have got that certified material for me
You’re the only chocolate mermaid for me
You steal the show, you win me over
I’ve never met anybody who can shake earthquakes in me
Earthquakes of ground breaking happiness
And my happiness is golden

My mother called you '' precious ''
That’s a sign, in a few years to come sipping on that wedding wine

Remember when, we were troublesome teenagers
And how I brought you those expensive flowers
We would talk for many hours
All those sleepless nights, pillow talks, jokes & laughter
I used to think you were a mystery in a maze
I was your secret admirer with these ambitious kisses to kiss you 
I never saw you as an imperfect person even through your smile was a disguise
A disguise to hide your deepest scars and lies upon lies

You went through hell and roads nobody could tell
Paths nobody could sell, like a freedom fighter you made it out of that cell
Your courage, your strength, your energy
Is beautiful to me
If I can’t make your heart azonto and make your butterflies twerk
Then my efforts are in vain, they won’t work  

It’s a chaos catastrophe if I’m not your king in the kitchen
Your homie at home, your Shakespeare in the sheets
Your kisses speak erotic heavens to me
Your sex game is narcotic Nintendo’s to me

You’re weird, wild and wonderful
Educated, funny & beautiful
It’s a poetic problem when we’re both poetically turned on
On fire, wet Fridays and romantic fire
You’re my one and only desire
Better than all of these basic birds
Basic bitches, you truly have me lost for words

More than amazing, more than a lover
More than a woman…

Aaliyah - (Birthday Tribute)


I'm tired of writing 4 page letters; God has got to let you out of heaven tonight
I was wondering whether we could have a red candlelight dinner
Just you and me
No cameras, no extravagance, no fuss
This ever growing bond, nothing can come between us

I feel like Romeo when he first met Juliet
It’s not fair that the good die young and you were among those on flight
Scattered and breaking into pieces
If you hadn’t taken that plane, who knows? What destiny could have had in stores?
Soo angelic and heavenly

In my mind, in another life, you were my wife
And you wore a white dress with white swans dancing in the ponds
White limousines parked outside, white pebbles and white pearls spread across everywhere
Pure, perfect and precious

America misses you and the world is asking about you
Your voice soo touching, blooming and beautiful
Baby girl, it’s your birthday and I’m infatuated with caressing you poetically
Softly & romantically, smoothly and calmly

You’re more than a woman, more than an artist, more than immaculate
Let’s leave heaven, dress up, I want to show you, your present
It’s a shame on mother earth, you’re not present
Your fans, friends and family all anguished over there
You’re standing over there and I don’t know what to tell ya
My eyes go in lust, you look lush, luxurious
Voluptuous and scrumptious
Seeing you is a fetching luxury
A girl like you is one in a million

We salsa dance by the Susquehanna
Back and forth
We need a resolution before you go back to your heavenly home
It’s been lovely, your lovable, my lover that loves to be loving
Queen of damned, Aaliyah disappears
Like Trish and Han, Romeo must die
