Song I dedicate to those friends I will never See again...Well meet up again
Lyrics:
The day I found my soul, I felt it
Die inside of me, yeah.
So I turn to you; life is
Like that, you know.
I have your face
In a photo in high school,
When you were alive,
But thats all I have.
And I cant remember
Who I was myself, then.
And it doesnt help;
Still I look to you as a friend
To tell me:
Who we are now, who we are.
It's who we are now, who we are.
Where does time go now,
On a wake for young souls?
You tell me,
Who we are now, who we are.
Where does time go now,
On a wake for young souls?
Like a lullaby, you sing:
Oh, ooo. Oh, ooo. Oh, ooo, ooo.
Well, the wind that blows...
It's blowing colder.
And the child that grows...
Shes growing older.
And the friends we've known,
Theyll turn a shoulder.
The friends we know,
They're growing colder, so...
It's who we are now, who we are.
It's who we are now, who we are.
Where does time go now,
On a wake for young souls?
You tell me,
Who we are now, who we are.
It's who we are now, who we are.
Woah, woah,
On a wake for young souls.
Wheres my soul? Where's my soul? Where's my soul?
Where's my soul?
Where's my soul?
Cycle of the moon brings blood to the woman,
And the blood of the woman brings birth of a child;
Child grow up, he forget himself and
Birth of a child comes someplace wild.
Even grey days beat the shade to wean,
Unbodied, unsouled, unheard, unseen.
Let the gift be grown in the time to call our own;
Let the gift be sewn, for the window's closing.
Truth is natural like the wind that blows;
Follow it's direction, no matter where it goes.
So it shall be: the earth, and the sea.
Let the truth blow like a hurricane through me.
Oh, oo. Oh, oo. Oh, oo, ooo.
If Ive been cold,
If Ive spoken in anger
To have been bold,
Forgive me. You know, I
Dont see your mother,
Not like before,
Though she hasnt forgotten...
She doesnt like to be reminded anymore.
And Annie got married it:
It didnt come with out tears.
Like the day you died:
I have nothing for these years, so,
It's who we are now, who we are.
It's who we are now, who we are.
Where does time go now
On a wake for young souls, now?
It's who we are now, who we are.
It's who we are now, who we are.
Woah, woah,
On a wake for young souls.
Other things, you know, are gonna
Fall away from me
Like a grain of sand
Slips through a good friend's hand

Lyrics from" patience" by Nas & Damian Marley " distant relatives" album.
This song and lyrics and the way it was spit...magical

Patience lyrics
[Damian Marley - Verse 1]
Some of the smartest dummies
Can't read the language of Egyptian mummies
An' a fly go a moon
And can't find food for the starving tummies
Pay no mind to the youths
Cause it's not like the future depends on it
But save the animals in the zoo
Cause the chimpanzee dem a make big money
This is how the media pillages
On the TV the picture is
Savages in villages
And the scientist still can't explain the pyramids, huh
Evangelists making a living on the videos of ribs of the little kids
Stereotyping the image of the images
And this is what the image is
You buy a khaki pants
And all of a sudden you say a Indiana Jones
An' a thief out gold and thief out the scrolls and even the buried bones
Some of the worst paparazzis I've ever seen and I ever known
Put the worst on display so the world can see
And that's all they will ever show
So the ones in the west
Will never move east
And feel like they could be at home
Dem get tricked by the beast
But a where dem ago flee when the monster is fully grown?
Solomonic linage whe dem still can't defeat and them coulda never clone
My spiritual DNA that print in my soul and I will forever Own Lord
[Hook]
[Nas talking]
Yeah, Sabali. Thats patience. That's what the old folks told me...
Discovering the World before this World. A World buried in time.
Uncover with rhymes. It gets no realer.
[Damian Marley: Verse 2]
Huh, we born not knowing, are we born knowing all?
We growing wiser, are we just growing tall?
Can you read thoughts? can you read palms?
Huh, can you predict the future? can you see storms, coming?
The Earth was flat if you went too far you would fall off
Now the Earth is round if the shape change again everybody woulda start laugh
The average man can't prove of most of the things that he chooses to speak of
And still won't research and find out the root of the truth that you seek of
Scholars teach in Universities and claim that they're smart and cunning
Tell them find a cure when we sneeze and that's when their nose start running
And the rich get stitched up, when we get cut
Man a heal dem broken bones in the bush with the wed mud
Can you read signs? can you read stars?
Can you make peace? can you fight war?
Can you milk cows, even though you drive cars? huh
Can you survive, Against All Odds, Now?
[Hook]
[Nas]
It's crazy when you feed people the truth you don't know how they're gonna react. You're scared of wrong doers, people that just ignorant, You're scared of the truth, be patient for now.
[Nas: Verse 3]
Who wrote the Bible? Who wrote the Qur'an?
And was it a lightning storm
That gave birth to the Earth
And then dinosaurs were born? damn
Who made up words? who made up numbers?
And what kind of spell is mankind under?
Everything on the planet we preserve and can it
Microwaved it and try it
No matter what we'll survive it
What's hue? what's man? what's human?
Anything along the land we consuming
Eatin', deletin', ruin
Trying to get paper
Gotta have land, gotta have acres
So I can sit back like Jack Nicholson
Watch n-ggas play the game like the lakers
In a world full of 52 fakers
Gypsies, seances, mystical prayers
You superstitious? throw salt over your shoulders
Make a wish for the day cuz
Like somebody got a doll of me
Stickin' needles in my arteries
But I can't feel it
Sometimes it's like 'pardon me, but I got a real big spirit'
I'm fearless.... I'm fearless
Don't you try and grab hold of my soul
It's like a military soldier since seven years old
I held real dead bodies in my arms
Felt their body turn cold, oh
Why we born in the first place
If this is how we gotta go?
Damn.
This goes to all the wisdom and knowledge seekers of the World. Sabali, Patience, yeah.
[End]

Thank you
what is of tomorrow ?
When there's nothing or no one to follow?
When your sunshine gets casted in a cloud, gray of sorrow?
I search for the truth, past my once age of curious youth
past the time of my last fallen tooth
In guidance I still look up to you
forgive me of my sins
I love you
I always wanted you to be proud to me
that's why I stayed away from the penitentiary
stayed in school and got a degree
Because you were always looking out for me
Your teachings help define me
During the worst of times, I lied to you, wife and lied to me
Now as a father, experience and wisdom to my seeds offer
Teach of the learned mistakes of their careless father
but to nothing regret because these were lessons
not to forget nor for a second neglect
I just want to thank you in this most precious day
when things look dismay
I just want to thank you of the teacher to me you became
You brought me back to live truth
you killed my once devilish youth
killed my lies with the tears in
my eyes
and for that I eternally love you
Your Son

Dedicated to those w/ a loved one in trouble and you feel helpless..
The saddest sight
as she decays in front of my eyes
I heavy sigh,
pain soo strong like the loss of my son
soo much potential
yet sadness & desperate clouds her mental
that she just gives in
to heavy drugs like heroin
and sinks into a mental trip
everytime her mother and I talk to her
she says " were just talking shit"
yells & cusses, with dried spit and dry cracked lips
every other hour you can see her chain smoke cigarettes
God help, because you know we've tried,
rehab more than three times
yet still she lies,
high is seen in her eyes.
multiple lawyers paid many times,
soo many times watched my mother Cry.
Wondering " Why "
Which angers me, but found out it won't solve anything.
but only enabling
Offer love and support, and
hope one day she can shed dead skin and spread her angel wings
and let love sing
where pain has once been
sunlight to where there was once rain
I remember your first words were my name, was I not your bothers keeper
but reaper that added to shame ?
my head turned as You lived in the fast lane
because I was busy with my own,
I'm sorry,
sorry that many times I didn't come home,
sorry father and mother never really had the "happy home"
I bet you felt alone
and your world couldn't understand
and ran into the arms of another lonely young man
that had the " Love"
" the happy feeling drug"
that morphed emotions numb,
please don't let it succumb
Safety, health and peace I wish her
Because God knows I miss her,
please I ask...
I ask to bring Back my sister...
as she decays in front of my eyes
I heavy sigh,
pain soo strong like the loss of my son
soo much potential
yet sadness & desperate clouds her mental
that she just gives in
to heavy drugs like heroin
and sinks into a mental trip
everytime her mother and I talk to her
she says " were just talking shit"
yells & cusses, with dried spit and dry cracked lips
every other hour you can see her chain smoke cigarettes
God help, because you know we've tried,
rehab more than three times
yet still she lies,
high is seen in her eyes.
multiple lawyers paid many times,
soo many times watched my mother Cry.

Dim the Lights, pop the cork, light the candle, set the bubble bath on standby, open the window slightly for a cool breeze, and don't talk, let the music talk to you.....

A Father's Prayer 8/14/2007
To be a father,
wisdom from experience must offer
though I may be not be the most perfect example
love must not be thrown in a hamper
always unconditional and teaching
while y child grows & grows, knows & knows
for a meaning seeking to be reaching,
TO the Lord we be kneeling.
My child, I smile when you smile
comfort you and kiss you when you frown
When grades are good and chores done,
That dress will be bought, and reward won,
It will be given to you because Daddy loves you
I only ask for the truth and confidence
Never arrogance and disobedience
I may not always be right, but with my pure heart I shall guide
Love your mom and kiss her good night
Daddy will never be cruel,
Only spank you, discipline to teach you rules
I love you more,
Than eyes can ever see, ears can ever hear
When at moments of fear, just
Look at the mirror, for you have noone but yourself to fear
There will be a day, when I wont wake
But with the genes we gave and teachings trained
I will never be too far away,
Daddy is but a memory away
Look to the clouds on a bright day
Or dark in a feeling of dismay
A soft kiss will be felt in the cool
Soft mist, because “DADA”
Will always be there &
Will always love you
wisdom from experience must offer
though I may be not be the most perfect example
love must not be thrown in a hamper
always unconditional and teaching
while y child grows & grows, knows & knows
for a meaning seeking to be reaching,
TO the Lord we be kneeling.
My child, I smile when you smile
comfort you and kiss you when you frown
When grades are good and chores done,
That dress will be bought, and reward won,
It will be given to you because Daddy loves you
I only ask for the truth and confidence
Never arrogance and disobedience
I may not always be right, but with my pure heart I shall guide
Love your mom and kiss her good night
Daddy will never be cruel,
Only spank you, discipline to teach you rules
I love you more,
Than eyes can ever see, ears can ever hear
When at moments of fear, just
Look at the mirror, for you have noone but yourself to fear
There will be a day, when I wont wake
But with the genes we gave and teachings trained
I will never be too far away,
Daddy is but a memory away
Look to the clouds on a bright day
Or dark in a feeling of dismay
A soft kiss will be felt in the cool
Soft mist, because “DADA”
Will always be there &
Will always love you
..K..
Hey Mami, what cha doing tonight?
Mabuhi, G.bless and long life
glad not to be with ex-wife
A time of stress, argue & fight
I'm finally living it right
and just wanna say I got u in sight
soo appetizing I want to bite, kiss,
recite poetry to miss,
and expose you to my thoughts of devilish
your smile is cool
like an Ice cube it keeps me tranquil
sometimes your name weighs heavy on my brain like an anvil
looking at you in your orange dress
sparks a fire of desire
in which I will cool down tonight with a cold shower
& tell her I like her on a note with chocolate & flowers
When alonr I kiss over 500 times on her neck
while she slaps my hands keeping me in check
" hands to yourself!"
my mind and eyes say " what the hell?"
And by my actions she can tell,
Damn I must have done something dumb, plus it's 4 in the morning,
So to sleep, I might as well....
by the way, it was cool to puff a little
weed, definitely been a long time for me
20 minutes later it gave me munchies
While feeling High, we took a taxi to LaLive
we ate sushi & drank wine
temporary solace of divine
On your bday, It was your day,
eating at restaurant at 21st floor restaurant,
overlooking the city
in all it's splendor and gritty
and by the way did I mention
" you look way more than pretty?"
And I calm & cool
Smooth & charmin, like Dean Martin
After the meal with cool view
"what's next" u said
I say "let's shoot pool!"
no car so taxi again taken to seven grand bar,
mojitos and rum n coke ordered
the last dude I played pool
I murdered,
acting like Tom cruise "On the color of money,"
on my pool shark skills,
and yes I got the tongue to pay the bills,
drinking as if I had gills.
Listening to the live band, "we chilled"
But in my mind, I anticipate,
The kiss from my date
"look babe isn't the singer great"
K said
I say " yea, she put soul to it"
you reply " she's white,"
if she was, I said " she has a bad tan,
overcooked medium, and slightly looking like a man."
But to her music I'm a fan
" cmon follow me, hey ma'am loved your singing voice what's your nationality?"
she said black and cherokee,
I looked at K and said "haha now you owe me."
she smiled as she left to the Bathroom briefly....
Her perfume scent drugging me
anyways, silence is all I heard in the crowd as K in her orange skirt approached my way in seductive walk, without any touch or talk, she gave me pleasurable pain, & grabbed my shirt
My hands touched over the "lump" part of the skirt, each kiss like a sensual flirt ..Lol, and yes it did work
wanting to proceed more than centimeter, i want like an inch.
eyes Never flynch cuz i didn't want to miss, this miss
Even while writting this , I cannot describe this...
So I'll end the page, with the memory stained, a friendship taking off like a plane, afar from which it came...
that tomorrow will bring a new day ;)
