In life you got to fight for what is yours
Life is a game and when the going gets tough
You have to fight more
Life is hard and it is also a difficult challenge
Sometime the only thing to do is cry when you are stressed
But the best feeling is succeed or fail
Hold up your head high and [...]

We live in a world
full of false first impressions
When our primal concern
is our harmful confessions.
A wasteland of violence
fear and aggression,
Poverty, hunger
sadness, depression.
But look at the bright side
Smile at the sunshine,
Live in the moment
Rather than just dread the nighttime.
Think of the love
and the lives that we have
Recycle the good
And dispose of the bad
Yes there are things
we [...]

one door closes and several others open.
back to the drawing board with old habits broken.
thought i had a grip but realized I was chokin.
too little too late, the voice of reason hath spoken.
opened my ears opened my eyes..
to something I couldn’t realize.
good things can go bad, you can die or let ‘em go and survive.
I’d [...]

Millions and millions
of years ago,
in the middle of darkness
A tiny dot showed.
And out of it came
As slow as can be
all things as we know them
From mountains to sea.
NOT!!!
Now wait just a minute,
press pause and rewind!
Can a masterpiece come
From a painter who’s blind?
Just writing this poem
Takes forethought, design..
And I’m to believe
the world chanced from slime?
Gimme a [...]

It is my duty to bring an end to
Corruption, evil, hatred and fear.
I vow to never forget the principles of which I chose to live by.
Love, Truth and Honor
My heart is forever uttering those three words.
When evil presents the easiest path,
I swear to turn my back on it,
And walk in confidence towards enlightenment.
I will believe [...]

If I had a million dollars,
I’d still be the same.
Many would disagree,
Those who do, I can’t blame.
All that would change,
Is that I would travel much more,
To all the different places,
Where hope can be restored.
I’d provide for those who need it,
And give more than I take.
Honor is most needed,
In this day and age.
A million dollars today,
Is [...]

I Promise to Love Myself Better..
I Promise to always Walk In the Light with My head Screwed On Tight..
Promise To Be a Go Getter..
Never Let Rejection Get the Best Of My Intentions..
Faith With Out Works is Dead..
Promise I will live by that Rule Instead Of Letting My Mind Sike Me Out 2 be a dread..
Hard [...]

Strong still
Strong with an iron will
Strong and powerful and did not fell
Strong with fire like hell
Strong against evil
Strong and will meet any hurdle
Strong and must win with God’s will
Strong through faith
Strong still

Reality is seeping into my fantasy and,
It’s turning my once golden dreams into a dusk road,
Paved by sultans and kings filled with woe.
They smile as their silvery tongues,
Slithers on the edge of their hollowed promises
“Dare I say let the weeping angels bleed,
And achieve their dreams of conquering the heavens.
Dare I say let the weeping [...]

O child smile, speak, why afraid,
Utter a single word and wisdom might be laid in motion
But listen; don’t listen to these words,
Everyone listens to or sprout out of their untold tongue
But see what they fail to see,
Like me, you, and us burning under this dusk tree.
But do listen and do
Hear the voice of violence hiding [...]
