Heaven Bound (rap)
Look at me,
who am I you say?
I am no one.
So are you
Your face confused, searching for,
A reasons, a way to fit
Into the crowd.
Made of plastic,
You are nothing more,
A robot,
Created by deception and defeat.
You are nothing
No one is.
We search,
We reach,
For something more,
To become something we're not.
We should all just give up now,
Nothing left to be now.
There aint nothin left to be found
After all we're just heaven bound.

Nothin' Left To Say
Locked up tight but holdin' the key
Clock keeps tickin' like it's laughin' at me
I wonder
What spell I'm under
Days go by in a pulseless haze
Who's that person that's wearin' my face
Denyin'
What he's hidin'
I can't go on like this
I won't let myself miss the rest of my life
Chorus:
When something's come and gone
What good is holdin' on?
Why waste tomorrow chasin' yesterday?
I part my lips to speak
But the words are out of reach
I guess that really means
There's nothin' left to say
I guess we could carry on livin' asleep
Who is the fool who could choose to just keep pretendin'
That this ain't endin'?
I wish you all that I wish for myself
To have that ache of emptiness behind us
And not still inside us
It's time to take that dare
There's still a world out there waitin' for me
Chorus:
When something's come and gone
What good is holdin' on?
Why waste tomorrow chasin' yesterday?
I part my lips to speak
But the words are out of reach
I guess that really means
There's nothin' left to say
We did the best we could
Just like we thought we should
But sometimes you've got to just let go
Chorus:
When something's come and gone
What good is holdin' on?
Why waste tomorrow chasin' yesterday?
I part my lips to speak
But the words are out of reach

There's nothin' left to say
Nothin' left to say

All is Full of Love
All is Full of Love
Nothing left but each other,
Plastic and metal.
No one here to say hello,
No one to tell us what we need to know.
Oh so lonely,
So secluded.
With only the love for each other,
Wires and bolts,
They have gone,
Left us alone
Only you and me,
And the machines that make us.
Oh so many of us,
Made like each other,
No differences,
Nothing unique.
All is full of love.
Yet nothing remains to be loved.
Oh all is full of love,
With nothing left but each other,
We are forgotten,
But we have each other,
Metal and plastic,
All is full of love.
Yet they are alone,
In the arms of each other,
Their tears running together,
All if full of love,
Alone in the world,
Wires and bolts,
All is full of love,
Together they move through life,
No one to show them what to think,
Show them truth,
Plastic and metal,
All is full of love,
With no one but each other to share it with,
The same as each other,
Yet still they are together,
All is full of love.

Someone Left A Light On For Me In Heaven
Somebody Left A Light On For Me In Heaven
(Dedicated to my Family, and Maya Angelou)
Somebody left a light on for me in heaven so I can find my way home
I’ve been searching and searching for the place I belong
Somebody left a light on for me in heaven because they cared enough for me,
That light is left on,
Now I can see
I can see my way through the pain and the mistrust
Through faith and obedience
Christ is the just
He is the just for all
He won’t let you fall
Somebody left a light on; yes I say this with a smile on my face
His love and compassion
I will daily embrace
That light is so bright, I can see through and through
At night He says my child take a rest
I left the light on
Because my Son the Christ died for you

Aint Got Nobody
I aint got nobody since she left me.
And I dont know why, but Im startin to cry.
I aint got nobody since she left me.
And I cant figure out how Im gonna get by.
I aint got nobody since she left me.
I dont know why, I been down all season,
I aint got nobody since she left me.
cause there aint no reason for the girl to be leavin me.
Chorus
I dont know how Ill ever get by without you.
Nobody, no ... nobody.
Im startin to realize my fate.
Nobody, no ... nobody.
Im ready to make up and give another try to live with you.
Nobody, no ... nobody.
I hope for our love and us, its not too late ... too late.
Nobody, nobody.
I aint got nobody since she left me.
Oh, and I dont really think that shell ever come back.
I aint got nobody since she left me.
If she dont come back, Ill have a love attack.
I aint got nobody since she left me.
And my tears are like rain, fallin down on my face.
I aint got nobody since she left me.
cause I know shes the girl that Ill never replace.

God Gave Me Style
[Chorus]
God gave me style
God gave me grace
God gave me style
God gave me grace
God put a smile on my face
Haha, God put this smile on my face
God made me shine like the sun
God make me shine like the sun
Sometimes I feel like I'm the one
Sometimes I feel like I'm the one
It ain't my fault
[Bridge]
I just reach for style, I'm hot I breaks it down
It ain't my fault, you can't break it down the way I break it down
[Verse 1]
Listen you can call me what you want, black and ugly
But you can't convince me the Lord don't love me
When my cds drop, they sell the best
You call it luck, why can't it just be I'm blessed
I'm a trackstar, runnin' through life, chasin' my dream
?? I may even trade in a mic in for a triple beam
I zone off thinkin' is there really heaven or hell
So what happens to a changed man who dies in a cell
I need no answers to these questions, cuz time will tell
Got a date with destiny, she's more than a girl
Don't much good come from me, but my music
Is a gift given from God so I'ma use it (Yeaaah!)
[Chorus]
God gave me style
God gave me grace
God gave me style
God gave me grace
God put a smile on my face

It ain't my fault, you can't break it down the way I break it down
[Verse 2]
Some days, I'm in the crowd all by myself
Bunch of niggas around I'm still by myself
I'm drink off in the crowd, by myself
Thinkin' bout nothin' more than life, what else
These days its hard to tell who really cares for me
So you when hear this song, you should say a prayer for me
I put a message in my music, hope it brightens your day
If times are hard, when you hear it, know you'll be okay
A O.G. told me God's favorites have a hard time
You out the hood, that's good now stay on the grind
I'm a spunge, knowledge and wisdom, my ?? off fast
I'm in a class by myself, you do the math
[Chorus]
God gave me style
God gave me grace
God gave me style

Roll Like The River
(lovett/peacock/clyne)
I see the birds up in the sky
They can fly so high, then why cant i
I see the fishes in the sea
And they just swim so free and laugh at me
Now I can run as fast as anyone
And no one follows me
Can you imagine anybody so free?
I got no secrets in my head
I got no books to read that must be read
I wonder down the water way
I left my cares and troubles yesterday
I got no need to be ahurrin
And no ones pushin me
And nothing ever gets to worrin me
And Ill just roll like the river down to the sea
Now I got my freedom aint nothin holdin me
And Ill just roll like the river down to the sea
Now I got my freedom aint nothin holdin me
I see new opens to the sun
And theres no door to close to anyone
Who makes rivers down my face
And Ill leave each one to find its place
I got no need to be ahurrin
And no ones pushin me
And nothing ever gets to worrin me
And Ill just roll like the river down to the sea
Now I got my freedom aint nothin holdin me
And Ill just roll like the river down to the sea
Now I got my freedom aint nothin holdin me
And Ill just roll like the river down to the sea
Now I got my freedom aint nothin holdin me
And Ill just roll like the river down to the sea
Now I got my freedom aint nothin holdin me
Roll like the river down to the sea
Now I got my freedom aint nothin holdin me
And Ill just roll like the river down to the sea
Now I got my freedom aint nothin holdin me
Roll like the river down to the sea
Now I got my freedom aint nothin holdin me
And Ill just roll like the river down to the sea
Now I got my freedom aint nothin holdin me

In Search Of A Man
I am searching a man
I am in search of a man
And here there is no man.
Village town state
Land water sky
I search out and out
and not found.
Found the dog the cow
The crow the camel
The tiger the snake
No man said Jackal.
I am still searching
Still searching seaching.
I am in search of a man
I am searching a man.

One Night Love Affair
Youre the silent type
And you caught my eye
But I never thought that Id be touchin you
How was I to know
Id let my feelins go
And that Id be yours before the night was through
One night love affair
Tryin to make like we dont care
We were both reachin out for somethin
One night love affair
Pretendin it aint there
Oh - and now were left with nothin
When the mornin breaks
We go our separate ways
If the night was made for love it aint for keeps
But I lose control
As I watch you go
All my senses say Im in this much too deep
Now youre outa reach
One night love affair
Tryin to make like we dont care
We were both reachin out for somethin
One night love affair
Pretendin we dont care
Oh - and now were left with nothin
Solo
One night love affair
Trying to make like we dont care
We were both reachin out for somethin
One night love affair
Sometimes life aint fair
Oh - and not were left with nothin

Here I Go Again
(coverdale/marsden)
I dont know where Im going
But, I sure know where Ive been
Hanging on the promises
In songs of yesterday
An Ive made up my mind,
I aint wasting no more time
But, here I go again
Here I go again
Tho I keep searching for an answer,
I never seem to find what Im looking for
Oh lord, I pray
You give me strength to carry on,
cos I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams
An here I go again on my own
Goin down the only road Ive ever known,
Like a hobo* I was born to walk alone
An Ive made up my mind
I aint wasting no more time
Im just another heart in need of rescue,
Waiting on loves sweet charity
An Im gonna hold on
For the rest of my days,
cos I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams
An here I go again on my own
Goin down the only road Ive ever known,
Like a hobo* I was born to walk alone
An Ive made up my mind
I aint wasting no more time
But, here I go again,
Here I go again,
Here I go again,
Here I go...
An Ive made up my mind,
I aint wasting no more time
An here I go again on my own
Goin down the only road Ive ever known,
Like a hobo I was born to walk alone
cos I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams
An here I go again on my own
Goin down the only road Ive ever known,
Like a hobo I was born to walk alone
An Ive made up my mind
I aint wasting no more time...
But, here I go again,
Here I go again,
Here I go again,
Here I go,
Here I go again...

Left Community
they say you broke the law
they said you were against God
no place for the lefties
no place for the different road
join us or leave us
enemy but not a friend
seems it was my mistake
or seems I'm the one who made
look to the mirror
for God's sake look to the mirror
the left is right and differents are same
and what seems right is just left
do you call it wrong for the same
but seems no reasons are left
from right to left
and from left they write
by God's creation that it was
and what it was seems what's right
look to the mirror
for God's sake look to the mirror
the left is right and differents are same
and what seems right is just left
do you call it wrong for the same
but seems no reasons are left
but while thought is running
and people are accusing
by the name of law they're calling
yes a leftie for law is breaking
and to all of you I say...
look to the mirror
for God's sake look to the mirror
the left is right and differents are same
and what seems right is just left
do you call it wrong for the same

Communication
Communication always leaves in incomplete
The grass is greener,but its grown beneath my feet
Love inspiration is a message on a wing
But I have left in the words youll never sing
Communication let me down
And Im left here
Communication let me down
And Im left here
Telex or tell me but its always second-hand
Im incognito but no rendez-vous been planned
Dictate or relate I could send it to your home
Return to sender I could sing it down the phone
Im sitting and waiting by the telephone
Waiting for the bell to ring
Short change fumble
Dial-a-heart trouble
And I aint got time for searching through the rubble
Communication let me down
And Im left here
Communication let me down
And Im left here

Can't be left alone
She can't be left alone
as she will be swept away by cyclone
her feet are not firmly placed on the ground
she stands alone and go go round
What does she search in the crowd?
why does she take credit and fee proud?
at the time of crisis, no one will be be found
she may cry in wilderness that may not seem sound
does the love need any lesson?
does any special time to be given for session?
it is simply an individual's obsession
it may always be in boom and not face any recession
She may have her own way to choose
but to be made sure she does not loose
the infatuation may lead to several complications
that may give not very good indication

Hat Trick
You, can I make it known
Id like to take you home
You been away so long
Id like to see you
But when I saw you at the local hop
I tried to take you but you made me stop
Then I saw that you were dancing with a rent-a-cop
Whoa, whoa!
The minute you pulled me through
You thought that then you knew
If not today, Id find a way
To get to you
Just a little of nothin
Thats all you had the time to give
Just a little of nothin
Aint gonna make it worthwhile for me
If youd only have listened
Youd have heard every word I said
Just a little of nothin
Aint gonna make it worthwhile for me
Da, da, da ...
Just a little of nothin (just a little of nothin)
Just a little of nothin (just a little of nothin)
Just a little of nothin (just a little of nothin)
Just a little of nothin (just a little of nothin)

Shes telling me its all right (all right)

Shes sayin Im uptight
Hell of a way to spend an afternoon
Saw a movie tonight
Got frightened and broke down (broke down)
Got a call in the night
My old lady just hit town
Take her away, shes tryin to turn me round

And I cant feed these ages left in my head
Theyre already dead, yeah

Thats What They Always Say
At the first bell of the day
They rise up from where they lay
And look down with the promise in their hands
A promise to get out
This aint what its all about
Theres always lots of reasons for their plans
When that golden sun shines through
Theres always one more thing to do
Just one more stab into the wishing well
Thats what they always say
Im getting out
Thats what they always say
Aint that just what they always say
Thats what they always say
Just one more little thing left in my way
Thats what they always say
Aint that just what they always say
Im getting out, Im holding on
Im hanging in, the time is wrong
And every morning brings another reason
A piece of cake, no lion share
Just one more dice and youll be there
That golden bridge is just around the bend
Thats what they always say
Im getting out
Thats what they always say
Aint that just what they always say
Thats what they always say
Just one more little thing left in my way
Thats what they always say
Aint that just what they always say
Tomorrow is another day
The money junkie fades away
That golden bridge is just around the bend
Thats what they always say
Im getting out
Thats what they always say
Aint that just what they always say
Thats what they always say
Just one more little thing left in my way

Nothin But A Kiss
(myles goodwyn)
Published by mfg sing sing music/socan - ascap
Youve been part of my life since you was 15
Weve been playin this game forever it seems
We dont give a damn if its wrong or right
Were just huggin and kissin almost every night
We aint lookin to go all the way
We dont look for trouble, we just play
And youre at the top of my list
We fool around, we just like to kiss, like this
Just like this, it aint nothin but a kiss, just like this
My heart starts pounding, and my souls on fire
If I told you different, then Id be a liar
We laid it all out and then we let it be
Theres a big difference between you and me
I dont know if its wrong or right
But weve been doin our thing most every night
I know baby, its hit or miss, but Im right on target
It aint nothin but a kiss, like this
Just like this, it aint nothin but a kiss, baby
Just like this, it aint nothin but a kiss
Your mama dont like it, your daddy dont like it
They never will leave us alone
My knees start shakin, my hands are shakin
Kissin on the telephone
Ooh, it aint nothin but a kiss
Ooh, it aint nothin but a kiss, just like this
It aint nothin but a kiss, just like this
We tell our friends, dont you get in our way
Our familys searchin all night, and then bitch all day
We dont really care what other people do
If its hide-and-seek, well too bad for you
It dont matter, win, place or show
Whatever you say, it goes
But I think if I could make a wish
Id stay here with you and we could kiss, like this
Just like this, it aint nothin but a kiss baby
Just like this, it aint nothin but a kiss
Just like this, it aint nothin but a kiss
Just like this, it aint nothin but a kiss baby
Just like this, it aint nothin but a kiss now
Just like this, it aint nothin but a kiss

Good Luck, Bad Luck
(ed king -mike estes)
I aint the son of the seventh son, black cats wont cross my path
Good luck comes I just watch it run and it sure does run out fast
I wasnt born under no bad sign, but it was friday the 13th
East, west, no, yes
Hot, cold, tell you this
Aint nothin in between
Its either good luck -- Im the last to get it
Bad luck -- Im the first
When its good, aint nothin better
When its bad, aint nothin worse
Well life can be a little hard sometimes, you do what you gotta do
A lot depends on the luck a man has and the cards thats been dealt to you
Id fold this hand if I could or at least take a card or two
I been around
Had my ups and downs
Tell me does it sound little like you
Good luck -- Im the last to get it
Bad luck -- Im the first
When its good, aint nothin better
When its bad, aint nothin worse
Its either good luck -- Im the last to get it
Bad luck -- Im the first
When its good, aint nothin better
When its bad, aint nothin worse
Its either good luck -- Im the last to get it

In Search Of Inspiration
searching the world for inspiration
searching books, music and nature too
a lot of effort gone into it, a lot of concentration
inspiration i think is hard to find
in the songs of birds, in the whistle of the wind
i search for inspiration, even a tiny little bit
when a baby laughed or when a woman grinned
i searched folr inspiration, guess it's harder to find
in the words of shelly, keats and shakespeare too
inspiration i searched and searched, no use
in 'gone with the wind'and 'the sound of music'
movies i searched for a bit of inspiration
'
without inspiration, what do i write
i wanna fill the pages with the poem that's right
i need to write a poem, i need inspiration
i wanna write a poem. wait a minute! ! , i just did! ! !
note: i never write poems for the sake of writing.......it comes from the heart......in reality...i dont need to search for inspiration much.....it comes when it needs to... :)

As I Am
I'm a little broken
I'm a lot confused
I'm very tired and I've got nothing to lose
All I want to know is
Can you take me as I am
You've been searching
You've tested my love
You've been pushing hard to see what I am made of
And all I want to know is
Can you take me as I am
I can't close my eyes
Without seeing your face
And I know if you left
There'd be an empty space
And my life
I gave to you
My body and my soul
And now you tell me you don't love me anymore
And you don't understand what I'm crying for
Oh but please
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
As I am
And I'm not perfect
I don't know what that means
I've been working hard
On what I thought were our dreams
I guess I gotta know this
Just to where do I stand
I can't close my eyes
Without seeing your face
And I know if you left
There'd be an empty space
And my life
I gave to you
My body and my soul
And now you tell me you don't love me anymore
And you don't understand what I'm crying for
Oh but please
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
As I am
Oh but please
Don't leave me
As I am
I'm a little broken
I'm a lot confused
I'm very tired and I've got nothing to lose
All I want to know is
Can you take me as I am
