Implementing Intent

Reinvention's the invention,Invented through intervention,From negligence and resentment Through retention of habit We're dependent on redemption,Exempt ourselves from exemption,Pretending we're the exception,It's ourselves we can't forgive Comprehending independence,Understanding self-acceptance,Can depend on the few friends whoWere present when you felt shit Self-investments and amendments,To transcend us to contentment,Discontented when the endingDoesn't always go to script ©...

Unapologetically Me

Got those around you who you thought were 'You', who love your energyWhen it comes to the reciprocal, half energy you seeI may be sorry, I may not be if I don't seem like I'm meNot doing things for you no more coz now I'm doing things for me Don't have to share exact beliefs,...

Metamorphosis

You can't live your own truth, because your truth hurtsSo you do what's not you, because that's what worksChoosing who approves you due to what desertsyou, through the blues, but enough about me Refuse to view issues, because you're so immersedIn amusing or news, what distracts or divertsDon't diffuse what ensues, excuses pre-rehearsed,Never reaching the...

HypOverlyCritical

The fantasist and egoistInside your head can't coexistConsistent traits of bitternessCan't be missed once you've witnessed this That twisted narcissistic shitIs mystic to the hypocriteLove to dish it but won't admitPush beyond where your wit's end sits Enlist in someone to assistWhen enterin-to the abyssDismiss this it ain't my businessResisting from the truth they twist...

One For ‘They’

It's funny that a baller takes the knee and it's still problematic, And when we stop the knee can we stop the racism while we're at it? Gave Saka, Sancho and Sir Rashford all that shit coz of their blackness, Because they missed a penalty, they put their hatred into practice "The knee's not working,...

Versus The People

This world bleeds,Control and power supersedesOur human needs,Replaced instead by ruthless greedWe should be free,In violence discontent will breed,And those who leadTake advantage of authority We ain't blindTo these headlines aligned with crime,Ask yourself whyDecide to side against mankind,Skip doing timeBecause social status is high,While people dieIn Colombia and Palestine And this ain't new,These two...

Note To Self

When you don't stand for something you'll fall for it all, Short of walking your talk instead opting to crawl, Recalling all shitstorms and pitfalls, causing stalling Causes you to hit walls, take your eye off the ball Only playing yourself if you're playing the part, Roles of light and the dark played by your...

The Nostalgic Paradox

Another collab with the very talented Ace. Great minds as they say Your laugh comes through the soft breezeYour touch through the whistle of the treesIt’s you, because together we are oneThe stars, the sand, and the sun At rest is when we are at easeLiving presently in our memories,It’s us, because together we are...

But Why Digress?

Your busyness don't mean productive but that's not my business, Criticism is not constructive divest my best interests, Ignorance in ignoring good influences who invest, Even living without the wisdom given, I should digress. Suppressing necessary lessons lessen chance of success, Selecting every avenue except accepting what's best, Rejecting what's already proved and yet you...

Unspoken Words Cry

So much can be said by saying nothing at allSo much power in no wordsSo much can be read when the body talksSo much value in the unheard Whispers in the darkYour echoes leave a markThe power in your toneBecomes a reality I’ve known Words act as a distractionIn each interactionImpact just a fraction,Action births...
