The director calmed me down and told me I was being too hard on myself. He went on to say that I wasn't quite as bad as I thought, but needed to tone things down a bit.

I was told once if I kept breaking things on my legs, that I wasn't going to be able to walk soon, you know? I wanted to be a pro skateboarder, but it was too hard. I was trying, but it wasn't going to happen.

City High Anthem
They just gave up on our entire generation
So we were all pushed to the side cuz we didn't see the world through our teachers eyes
When all we needed was a little bit of motivation
But because we wore our pants saggin' y'all labelled us gangstas
And said we wasn't worth the time
There are so many things I never asked you
There are so many things I still don't know
There are so many things you never told me
And still so many things that I will never know
and why

He Told Me I Was Beautiful
He told me I was Beautiful,
And I was feeling so alone...
He told me I was Beautiful,
It was such a serious tone.
He told me I was Beautiful,
It must be a curse word!
He told me I was Beautiful,
And made sure that I heard.
He told me I was Beautiful,
And that he wanted to keep me.
He Told me I was Beautiful,
I felt trapped and wanted to flee.
He told me I was Beautiful,
But I do not love him.
He told me I was Beautiful,
You know what?
I really don't care....
Because when he kissed me,
I wished I wasn't there.

I Wasn't Over You
Girl no matter where I go
I call you after every show
In your voice I hear a funny tone
Somebody's holding you
Now you see me on TV
I thought you'd be proud of me
Somehow things have changed (oh yea)
I wasn't over you (over you)
I was away from you
And now you've left me (oh baby)
When sky's are gray
I wasn't over you (over you)
I was away from you
And now you've blown it all away
When I'm on stage with 98 Degrees
Trying to make a way for you and me

WhAt sHe Did tO HiM
He loved her more than anything alive
He thought she was the reason for him to survive
He’s always been fair to her
He always told her that she was the reason for his glee
But yet he never knew who she’ll become
And what person she’ll soon be
He thought she loved him as he loved her and even more
But soon he’ll find out that all this love was before
She will change and leave him with no hope for love or trust
He will find out that this love became iron rust
After all he’s done for her...she was never grateful indeed
She will soon tell him that he wasn’t the guy to need
He will be heartbroken, he will lie in despair
Desperation that has no cure and is impossible to repair
He will find it hard to acclimate
He will find it hard to accept
He will soon throw away all her precious things
Things so valuable that he has kept
Nobody can be trusted anymore
Since all this trust was before
It is hard to believe in the word love
Since love is what initiates problems before they are acted upon
And soon he or she that is loved
Will with no doubt
Be internally gone…

Where Were You When I Needed You
(p. f. sloan/s. barri)
Don't botter cryin'
Don't botter crawlin'
It's all over now
No use in stallin'
The love i once felt
I don't feel anymore for you
This time i'll even
Open the door for you
You walked out
When i was down
Well now i'm well off
And look who's comin' around
Where were you when i needed you
Where were you when i wanted you
Where were you when i needed you
Where
You're looking good
It's hard to fight it
There's no use explainin'
I've already decided
That livin' without ya
Is worse than without ya
I won't spend a lifetime
A-worryin' about ya
Things got rough
And you dissappeared
Now i'm back on my feet
And look who's standing there
Where were you when i needed you
Where were you when i wanted you
Where were you when i needed you
Where
You were so young
And you were so wild
I knew you were nobody's
Innocent child
The first day i saw you
You really got me
I thought i could change ya
What good did it do me
Things got rough
And i couldn't wait
Now you're trippin' back
But babe, it's too late
Where were you when i needed you
Where were you when i wanted you
Where were you when i needed you
Where

Something Of Value
All that I need to hear from you
something of value but something untrue
All that I wished that I'd find within you...
See how what she wanted and she needed
Tore it all down in the end
Some how like a sickness she infects me
She's simple but deadly my friend
All that I needed to hear from you
Something of value but something untrue
All that I wished that I'd find within you
Stings when I see all the ways that you...
Took me for granted and told me it's through
Picked from my pockets and smiled
Empty is nothing and nothing is you
Think I'll just sit for a while
See how what I wanted and I needed
It wasn't enough in the end
somehow with a quickness I forgot her
I realized she wasn't my friend

It's a dumb question, because I don't look at things as a black director, just as a director, so ask me as a director first and we can segue into the colour thing later.

What Mattters
In the silence of myself
I find that the game
Was not worth the fight
For what I thought was needed
Wasn't what was needed after all
Everything gathered becomes
Old, lost and broken
No longer useful
What was really needed
Was lost long ago
When we said goobye

One More Time
Behind my eyes
I keep my truth from you.
No one enters
This secret place,
The barrier only I embrace.
Time is fleeing now
They say,
Take time to look inside
And face... the change.
Dig down deep
To find the man I thought I was.
A dog on a treadmill panting,
The master pulls the leash, laughing.
Now I cant remember why
I needed to run, needed to try so hard.
One more time around
Is all I ask for now,
A star to seek by, wind to
Take me home again.
Work hard in life boy,
Theres paradise in the end.
Year after year we struggle to gain
The happiness our parents never claimed.
They told us all we had to do
Was do what were told, buy what was sold,
Invest in gold, and never get old.
One more time around
Is all I ask for now,
A star to steer by, wind to
Take me home again.

I'm sorry I'm just a Human
Im sorry
I am sorry I am weak
I am sorry for your pain
I am sorry I was the one that hurt you
Yet again I am sorry for the tears
I am sorry for the trouble I brought you
That I know I have made you shed
I am sorry that I could not make you
Smile today instead.
I am sorry things are not different
There is so much I am sorry for
So many things I should have done
Or said, now and before
I am sorry that I am human
If I wasn’t so damn frail
I’d have nothing to be sorry for
Because I wouldn’t have failed.
I am sorry that I let you down
When you needed me most
I am sorry that I wasn’t around
For all eternity
And though it probably doesn’t help
Or somehow make things right
Know I will be sorry all of my days
And sorry all of my nights.

Who am I
been crying for a day
I haven't found out my place
Why am i here?
What pourpose do i have?
I will never know
I don't know why i do the things i do
I don't know why i mess up
I was told if lifes a struggle then you're doing it right
But why me?
I don't want life to be so hard
I'm sick of making my parents disappointed in me
I need to change
don't know how
never asked for help before
it's something i hate doing
you show weakness if you ask for help
i've grown up being told don't show weakness
even crying is
this girl that walks around is me but she isn't really me
the real me is dead and won't ever return
she said goodbye the first night i drank again
she said goodbye after johnathan said he needed space
this girl that you see is just an image trying to get through life
i wish this wasn't me but i don't know how to tell you any different
this has been me for the longest time
not a day goes by that i don't think about ending it all
Who am I?
i'm so lost i need to be found

60 Miles Per Hour
How does it feel to treat me like you do?
When you've laid your hands upon me and told me who you are.
I thought I was mistaken, I thought I heard your words.
Tell me how do I feel. Tell me now, how do I feel.
Those who came before me lived through their vocations
from the past until completion, they'll turn away no more.
And still I find it so hard to say what I need to say.
But I'm quite sure that you'll tell me just how I should feel today.
I see a ship in the harbor. I can and shall obey.
But if it wasn't for your misfortune, I'd be a heavenly person today.
And I thought I was mistaken, and I thought I heard you speak
Tell me, how do I feel. Tell me now, how should I feel.
Now I stand here waiting...
I thought I told you to leave me when I walked down to the beach.
Tell me how does it feel, when your heart grows cold, grows cold, cold.

I Thought I Gave Up
I thought I gave up,
I thought I was done,
I thought it was over,
I thought you won.
I thought I was done,
with you and your games,
turns out I'm not,
because of your gaze.
With you and your games,
comes along a broken heart,
I wasn't ready for it,
but now I have no choice.
Comes along a broken heart,
but truth be told,
I never wanted to,
let you go.
But truth be told,
I wasn't ready for it,
because of your gaze,
I thought I gave up.

My dad said, 'The thing that I was told that was really helpful was that I mustn't be afraid of the things I was afraid of when I was five years old'. The shock of his childhood had put him in this defensive crouch against the world, and he needed to know that he had a nice wife and kids and it wasn't the same any more.

I Thought I Told You That (feat. Faith Evans)
Theres a boy that Im into, hes so fly, so cute
I dreamt of, him every night, he had me, on cloud nine
Thought I could trust him, why?, he said to me when I needed him
He was there for me, then I found out he did the same
For every girl, with a pretty face
I just wanted to believe that
He was so innocent, so sweet
He did everything for me and
People told me all along, he was wrong
But I was so naive
Dont let him do to you what he did to me
Thought I told you that, he would break your heart
He was no good for you, from the start
Thought I told you that, he had another girl
Youre not the only woman in his world
Thought I told you that, he would make you cry
I dont see how you believe his lie
Thought I told you that, I hate to say that I told you so
Take it from me, you better leave him alone
He played me the whole time, thats why Im warning you
Im not the jealous type
cause Ive already been there done that
And nothing that he says will make me want him back
It does matter what he sends me
A dozen flowers or a diamond thats bling bling
Its all good but Im not the one to be staying home while hes having fun
I just wanted to believe that
He was so innocent, so sweet
He did everything for me and
People told me all along, he was wrong
But I was so naive
Dont let him do to you what he did to me
Thought I told you that, he would break your heart
He was no good for you, from the start
Thought I told you that, he had another girl
Youre not the only woman in his world
Thought i told you that, he would make you cry
I dont see how you believe his lie
Thought I told you that, I hate to say that I told you so
Take it from me, you better leave him alone
Girlfriend, Im just trying to make you see
That its not about you, its not about me
You cant let him get the best of you this way
You gotta love yourself and just walk away
Thought I told you that, he would break your heart
He was no good for you, from the start
Thought I told you that, he had another girl
Youre not the only woman in his world
Thought I told you that, he would make you cry
I dont see how you believe his lie
Thought I told you that, I hate to say that I told you so
Take it from me, you better leave him alone
Thought I told you that, he would break your heart
He was no good for you, from the start
Thought I told you that, he had another girl
Youre not the only woman in his world
Thought I told you that, he would make you cry
I dont see how you believe his lie
Thought I told you that, I hate to say that I told you so
Take it from me, you better leave him alone

After All
Seth Swirsky)
Night-
And the world is fast asleep
I will hold you here and keep
All our secret dreams and plans
You-
Never thought our love could last
Now you've put that in the past
'Cause you finally understand
CHORUS
That after all
The times you told me that we'd never be good together
After all things you said
That made me think that you'd never call
Now you've turned around and told me
That you want to stay here forever
And you're back here in my arms
Where you belong
After all
We-
All the promises we made
All the words we never said
Never knowing what was right
You didn't know-
That the love we used to share
Wasn't 'cause it wasn't there
We'll make up for it tonight
CHORUS
We were young
And your dreams took you places far from me
I was wrong
To believe
That you'd go
'Cause here you are

Tone
Find me a tone for this poem
I am having a hard time
With putting the proper tone
Though I am pretty sure
Of its form
What form to use
The shape of the swan
A white swan
On a lake
Alone
Give me a tone
That conveys what I
Want to convey
To you
A language
That really means
What it says
Something
Creative
A path
That I must
Follow
Leading me
To you
Give me a tone
Please
A tone from
You
The one
I really love
The one
That must
Love me
Too
Truly,
Tell me
What is the
Tone now
Of this poem
Is it begging?

Chinese Arithmatic
Candle light, it burns in every hole of your eyes
It's beautiful, how much you'll never realize
So hush my love, there's something I'm to tell you now
Your time has come, around again my sleepless one
Your friend was young, hung and plastered
He never knew his own disaster
I think it's good, in fact it was faster
Cause it was you that he was after
Hold me now, as if you'll never let me go
Unhand me now, as if you've always known my name
His love was king, his love was master
He needed more, he needed always
He searched in vein for love and shelter
In every soul, in every hallway
So you thought she'd be sweeter than your girlfriend Peter
Well give it a second chance cause you've yet to meet her
We got the same ideas, we got the same old fears
They're different colors sometimes, but, hey, who cares?
Just years that tears our lives apart
Just like the time that you tried to teach your cousin to walk
He couldn't do it-push!-you told him twice
Well, I do man but it just don't jive
Tried so hard to control my behavior
I tried so hard, so hard to believe you
But now I live only to deceive you...
So KICK and SCREAM!!!

Please us with your lyrical thesis,
We just chillin,
Milk'em top billin,
Silk'em and pure linen,
Me and little cease,
Malibu sea breeze,
Dom p's,
Palm trees,
Cats lay in pablo,
In milked out diablos,
The williest,
Bitches be the silliest,
The more i smoke,
The smaller the phillie gets,
Room 112 where the players dwell,
To stash more cash than burn and hale,
Inhale,
Make you feel good like tony toni tone (feels good),
Dig up in your middle like monie (yeah),
Don't know me,
But your settin up to blow me,
Try to style,
Fly up north with a homie (yes),
It's style is dondatta,
Playas stay splurgin',
Game so tight,
They call it virgin...
[112]
Oh i need to know,
Where we stand,
Do we share this special thing called love,
I know i do,
What about you,
I just can't get enough of the time...
I need you in my life,
Where do we go,
What do i do,
I can't live without your love,
Thinkin' of you,
Makes me feel,
Like i am the only one for you,
[chorus:]
Girl i want to be with you,
No one else,
Only you,
Why can't we just,
Make it happen,
Baby, i need you in my life...
Every time i'm with you,
Never want it to come to an end (thought i told you that we won't stop),
You always make me so happy,
You'll always have a place in my heart...
I need you in my life,
Where do we go,
What do i do,
I can't live without your love,
Thinkin' of you,
Makes me feel,
Like i am the only one for you,
[mase]
Now you can hum all you want to,
Cum all you want to,
Money i'mma front you,
Girl i wanna flaunt you,
I'mma always want you,
When nobody want you,
If i die now my love will still haunt you,
Mase ain't the one that will pay for your phone,
Mase be the one that will take you home,
Even though i'm not the one that gave you the stone,
All your days alone,
I could make you moan,
Everybody know i got more bounce than the ounce,
Bad boy get more money than you can count,
Why i'm buying things you can't even pronounce,
I'd do it to your cat for a large amount,
And when the beef come you know where to be found,
Why i be around till the winner is announced (the winner is),
So there ya go girl with thousands in ya palms,
Why you can't let by gones be by gones...
[112]
Where do i go,
What must i do,
If i can't live without your love,
Thinkin' of you, makes me feel, baby,
Like i am the only one for you,
