The Book Man

im not tripping over bullshit im not getting,
i never thought jordan was better than scott pippen,
socks ripping...thats if im wearing them at all,
stop watching or listening if your appauled,
thats if you care at all..heres something ill share with yall,
i've sayed prayers not to care at all,
cause i am trippin over bullshit im not getting,
but thats when people with no legs tell me stop sitting,
they say i can move ahead...
and if i cant...just thank god that i can use my legs,
decapitated victims telling me to use my head,
if you see no living examples to use for inspiration...
my news to you is use the dead!
so many friends and family members gone...
but i know what you said,
I remember your actions,
your voice
and how you look,
if you know me
your not illiterate
im a living book.

My Grandma Sits Next to Me

REPLACE HOURS WITH SECONDS
AND THEN REPLACE PEACE INSTRUMENTS WITH WEAPONS
ROOKIES IN FOR LEGENDS,
DEFLATE EVERY BASKETBALL
NOW EVERYBODY DRIBBLE,
CAN 1 MAN PLAY MONKEY IN THE MIDDLE?
WITH LIFE AND DEATH ON EACH SIDE
AND ME HIGH PUTTING ON A SHOW,
DAMN...I REALLY SPEND MY LIFE PUTTING ON A SHOW,
PLAYED OR UNPLAYED, PAID AND UNDERPAID OR UNPAID,
LONG AS YOU SHINE IS ALL I HEAR THE SUN SAY,
BUT DADDY I NEED BOOTS IS WHAT MY SONS SAY,
DAUGHTERS WANT THEM PRETTY SHOES TO PRACTICE FOR THE RUNWAY,
SOMEDAYS I CRY WHILE THINKING ABOT THE FUN DAYS,
BUT LAUGH THINKING ABOUT THE ASSWHOOPINS...CRAZY IN SOMEWAYS,
TO LIVE AND LEARN, AND GROW TO DIE,
ITS DEMAND AND SUPPLY...
COMMANDMENTS FROM THE SKY...
BYE BYE.
