Composition #6: Final Project
Lost Love
Looking into his eyes
He’s staring into my heart
That’s when I knew
I had a fresh start
No worries, no lies
No pain, no games
I had a genuine fellow
That made me feel mellow
This couldn’t be true
He came out the blue
I started to feel empty
He showed me no pity
A truth through a lie
I thought I would die
I knew we were over
I cried on her shoulder
Not knowing I was the mistress
Thinking I had his attention
He showed me, well I learned
Good love was hard to find
That’s why the love wasn’t mine
Had it All Along
We were friends
Well that’s what I thought
You smiled in my face
But hated the thought
Of being my friend
And holding my hand
Through the good and the bad
Happy and sad
You thought low of me
Because you had more than me
Now I sit alone
No friends, no home
Disappointment and disbelief
I got on my knees
I prayed to the lord to show me the doors
To the kingdom above
All I needed was love
From the true friends I longed for
Then I discovered
I had him with love
Why me
I didn’t deserve this treatment
I’m on the ground bleeding
My body disfigured
I can’t even remember
How I got in this position
I got caught slipping
They snaked me when I least expected it
Now they laugh in achievement
One mission accomplished
They left me blinded
No strength to longer live
I can never forgive
The way they mistreated
They finally defeated
Me yes me
I can’t stand on two feet
I can’t show my face
Was it my race
If it was it’s clear I lost so again
I’ll just start with asking
Why me
Have You Ever
Can I ask
Have you ever
Been hurt, betrayed or lied to
I know the answers yes
Been talked about or harmed
When you were trying your best
Gave all you had to a person
And not getting close to what you gave in return
Have you ever
Walked away from the one you love
For the one you like
Been fake and talked about others
Because of who you were deep down inside
Told half of who you were
Instead of telling the whole nine
Being put in situations
Which you know you can’t deny
Been in the wrong
And swore you were right
Just stopped to evaluate yourself
Have you ever
Dreaming
I’m on cloud nine
Away from the crimes
The world shows much love
No hate and no drugs
No drug dealers
Or car thieves
This is the place I’d rather be
No liquor, no drinks
Just pretty and pink
My dream world
Spiral stairs and white walls
Yes I have it all
The money and fame
Them screaming my name
Red carpets and ropes
Kids with no tears
Forget about fears
All crystals in blue
This couldn’t be true
And then I wake up on Keeler
I knew I was Dreaming
I am not the Enemy
I am not the enemy
Why resentment me
Try facing my fears
I’ve done this for years
I’ve been through the rain
With dirt on my name
I’m pass the big struggle
Why must I be humble
Who am I
I’m not the enemy
You whimper in fear
You feel I’m not here
You swear I vow to hurt you
I want to just hold you
For the rest of out years
No need for tears because
I am not the enemy
You don’t know me left to right
My feelings are melting like ice
That’s why I can’t find the right
Words, to prove I am not the enemy
Never
She got scandalous ways
She out here the wrong way
Yeah, that pretty face
Never!
She needs some attention
Why can’t you just listen
To her it’s a privilege
Never!
She got all the looks
She just needs the books
But this girl is hooked
Never!
She was raised in the hood
They swear she no good
Man I wish she could but
Never!
She’s found in the alley
Her whole families yelling
They know that was petty
And now they regretting
Never!
Misery Loves Company
Your pathetic I will never be like you
Don’t look dumbfounded as if I’m not talking to you
Just because you’re down you try to bring others along for the ride
But not me I have too much joy, love, and pride
The soul you live in is dark and cold
You take the gun out and I watch as bullets unfold
You shoot down his dreams
Robbed her childhood
Then smiled as if everything was ok
Which was something I never understood?
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The shots are real loud
I also see that you don’t even have the same smile
I shut you out of the hell you lived in
You were a waste of life why were you born to begin with
Your pathetic I will never be like you
Don’t look dumbfounded as if I’m not talking to you
Just because you’re down you try and bring others along for the ride
But not me I have too much joy, love, and pride
You that lonely
Misery Loves Company
Blind Eyes
Heart is broken but in time it heals
Didn’t know getting into this would be deal or no deal
Silent tears fall, voice raspy as we disconnect
So gone over you time to move to the next
But I cannot move on
Guess I have failed the test
Tears get heavy as I look at my grave
It was not our future but this is what you made
Our fairy tale story was just an illusion
You lied to be but now I’m seeing the confusion
You never wanted us or you would have held on
Instead of making Lil Wayne “Single” your theme song
Wish I could see through the dark fog
The smiling pictures and good times
Me and you built a collage
However the collage was of broken dreams
Cannot be upset life is never what it seems
We have turned this between us
Into a Usher and Tameka scene
Wish I knew what I knew now, life lessoned learned
That this is what it means to be in Love
Legend or Loser
To fail or to fall
To strive until the end
Or never even begin
Thoughts run through my mind all day long
Get somewhere far in life, or just fit where I belong
Be a legend, be a loser
Gain exposer or lose composure
What’s a person to do when life is hard
What could happen when I follow my heart
Don’t want to be a failure
Identified as a loser
But how can I make it to the end
To be classified as a natural born legend
This thing we call life is hard as hell
This thing called competition I’ll never understand quite well
But I know I have to make it
Gotta get back up after taking a great hit
I refuse to be the loser
To fail or not to fail
To strive until the end or never even begin
I’ll take my chances and be a legend
Beyond the Feeling
You thinking what I’m thinking
No you can’t be
You want me to want you
But that’s not the case
So boy, get up out my face
Not trying to be rude
It’s just my attitude
I’m not trying to interfere
But why are you here
Out of my presence
You’re just a small peasant
Not trying to be rude
Just telling the truth
You want what I have
But it’s not up for grabs
Why the change in the mood
You don’t have to feel blue
Just accept the fact
That you don’t have it like that
You were wrong from the beginning
Not that type of healing
I want beyond the feeling
The Middle Man
Can’t find me left or right
Front or back
But I’ll be the man
In the middle of your tracks
You can’t twist me in your circle
Because I don’t belong in those
But maybe I’m between the numbers 1, 3, or 4
Can’t catch me in traffic
Because I fly right pass that
But you’ll always end up in my front or back
