Greedy
cuz every smile you provoked waz another wound healed
Greedy
cuz just one look waz my fate with you sealed
Greedy
cuz each and every touch became feverishly intense
Greedy
cuz prior to love i didn't believe it this immense
Greedy
for memoriez that can be so firmly encased within a song
Greedy
cuz the vacuum created by your absence iz so strong
Greedy
cuz all that remainz are the evanescent imagez only your scent can bring
Greedy
so to each thought of you that iz conjured i hungrily cling
Greedy
for you and vestigez of your laugh that so benevolently haunt my heart
Greedy
for you, still knowing that no hereafter will unite us with a new start
Greedy
for what i can envision becuz no god nor religion providez consolation
Greedy
and guarding what'z left of you in me, like divine revelation
Greedy
i am and will be for every fragment of you i can obtain
Greedy
to feel you even if it meanz to cntinue to feel the pain

amerikkka, amerikkka: Born In The usa(Politrickz II)

i waz born here too, this grand ole usa
where the national bird iz a bird of prey(pray)?
"One nation under god" ain't that what waz said?
Oh, so "god" told them to put that noose around my head.
Yeah, it uzed to be beautiful many amber wavez of grainz
until they started spreadin innocent blood across the plainz.
But, wow, how great! What an astounding legacy
home of the free and the brave az well az slavery.
And they taught me their bible and let me borrow their god
even though him being white, like them, at first seemed odd.
But then they showed me in their bible where "god" said
i should serve my "master" here, and have paradise when i'm dead.
So i worked making them rich and me weak,
and i waz "good" and did what my "savior said and turned the other cheek.
i waz born here, and it'z great -- now that i'm a citizen,
cuz even though "all me are created equal" my forefatherz were only 3/5 of men.
amerikkka, amerikkka the land of (forced) free choicez they claim
becuz we were all forced to freely wear our slavemaster'z name.
Born in the usa, and this country tis of thee
land of hate, greed, lust, envy and non-white and poor peoplez' misery.
Born in the usa where (the white) god unmasked his face
and lady liberty waz courted by and then wed disgrace.
amerikkka, amerikkka where millionz were forced to labor
all day or face the pen, the fire, the noose, the whip, the firing squad or the sabor.
amerikkka, amerikkka my blood fertilized your dirt
while you got rich, ain't that a bitch cuz you ain't do none of the work.
amerikkka, amerikkka, yep i waz born here too, but on another side
where my father, brother, sister, uncle, auntie, son, daughter, and mother died.
amerikkka, amerikkka i too sing of thee,
of the tyranny and oppression, which you judged a blessin, from sea to bloody sea.

Happyness
Who are you to say that I am not happy?
Who am I to stand in the way of my own happyness?
I am not exactly feeling everything that I am putting forth right now.
So what am I going to do about it you may ask?
I am going to change it.
Today is as good of a day as any.
Life is what you make it.
At least that is what they say.
But I really want to know.
Who the fuck is they?
They are the people that make the rules.
Fuck the rules
Because rules are meant to be broken
Or else they wouldn’t be there
The rules are put in place to keep you in your place
So that you stay in your space
In your little tiny box.
Fuck that
I want it all
To see it all
To do it all
Okay let me pull myself back in and not fly to far off the handle
I am going to do big things
Great things
At least that is what they tell you in school.
But I ask again
Who the fuck is they?
They are the establishment that tries hard to limit you at all of the things that they want you to do.
To keep you in the mold of the blue collar
What if I wanted my collar to be yellow or maybe neon green.
Fuck that
Do what is going to make you
Happy
Do you know what it is like to live in fear of your own potential?
Because you might actually be good at something better, than that you might be great.
That is my fear
I have had people all my life tell me that I was performing under my ‘apparent potential’
What if they were wrong?
Or could it just be that I am scared because I have known that they were right all along.
Do you know what it is like to live in type of constant fear?
Well today I stand up to my fear and I am going to start doing all of the things that I know I have the potential to do.
I am going to be great at my passions
And best at my loves
Of the things that I know that I can do and do exceptionally, well.
I have decided
Today
To put my fear aside and step out on my ability
Because my faith is only going to get me so far.
And you can not walk by faith alone.
I am no longer putting my happyness into the hands of someone else.
I am going to take control of my life and do what I know I can do and stop bullshitting.
I am the queen of my world and I rule over all things that pertain to me with the guidance and advise from the one and only
King.
