The Fallen Star
They could never understand what u set out 2 do
instead they chose 2 ridicule u
when u got weak they loved
the sight of your dimming and flickering starlight
How could they understand what was so intricate
2 be loved by so many, so intimate they wanted 2 c your
lifeless corpse this way
u could not alter the course of ignorance that they have set
2 make my people forget
what they have done for much 2 long 2 just forget and carry
on I had loved
u forever because of who u r and now I mourn our fallen star
The Rose That Grew From Concrete
Did you hear about the rose that grew from a crack in the
concrete?
Proving nature's law is wrong it learned to walk with out
having feet.
Funny it seems, but by keeping it's dreams,
it learned to breathe fresh air.
Long live the rose that grew from concrete when no one else
ever cared.
And Tomorrow
Today is filled with anger, fueled with hidden hate.
Scared of being outkast, afraid of common fate.
Today is build on tragedies which no one want's to face.
Nightmares to humanity and morally disgraced.
Tonight is filled with Rage, violence in the air.
Children bred with ruthlessness cause no one at home cares.
Tonight I lay my head down but the pressure never stops,
knowing that my sanity content when I'm droped.
But tomorrow I see change, a chance to build a new, build on
spirit intent of heart and ideas based on truth.
Tomorrow I wake with second wind and strong because of
pride.
I know I fought with all my heart to keep the dream alive
A Young Heart With An Old Soul
A young heart with an old soul How can there be peace?
How can I be in the depths of solitude When there are two
inside of me?
This duo in me causes the perfect opportunity
To learn and live twice as fast As those who accept
simplicity
In The Event Of My Demise
In the event of my demise when my heart can beat no more,
I hope I die for a principle or a belief that I had lived 4.
I will die before my time,
because I feel the shadow's depth. So much I wanted 2
accomplish before I reached my death,
I have come 2 grips with the possibility and wiped the last
tear from my eyes.
I loved all who were positive, In the event of my Demise
I Cry
Sometimes when I'm alone I Cry, cause I am on my own.
The tears I cry are bitter and warm, they flow with life but
take no form.
I cry because my heart is torn, I find it difficult to carry
on.
If I had an ear to confide in, I would cry among my
treasured friend, but who do you know that stops that long, to help another
carry on.
The world moves fast and it would rather pass you on by,
then to stop and see what makes one cry, so painful and sad
. ...And sometimes... I cry and no one cares about why.
Ambition Over Adversity
Take one's adversity, learn from their misfortune, learn
from their pain.
Believe in something, believe in yourself. Turn adversity
into ambition,
Now blossom into wealth.
