never change....


I woke up out of a dream back in 2001
just about when guys were crazy about 2001
couple years later my mix tape album was done
made merry, did songs with Mitch I and Doc in one
Thanks to Alkay for the introductions in - this one
first track we did it and for sure it was done
Held the mic so firm in my hands not to be gone
I feel like Paul Pattni after the gold trial was done
Chukua Records on the beat and Praise G.O.D was done
I watched the death of a dynasty, 4G mafia now is done
Working with Tommy of chukua was a dream
I had visions of making a classic, then my world turned black
Like I was in a dark room with shades on my eyes
After Praise G.O.D I changed focus, and content of music
I got to learn how to sample a beat and make a hit
The value lessons I picked from Kizzy were just a hit
On the mic with DOC and MI did maisha and it was a hit
Darkness fell now I had to go solo and still make hit
it kinda felt right inside me, like Kanye West
Coming back from his fatal accident to beat-making and rapping
I was seen like the future coz I had grown much about rapping
This future never was, I sit in an office, pretend to be busy
I bump my head to the beat and wishing I was on stage
my stage days could be done but I’ll sit and compose a beat
Record a hit, draw punchlines coz I am anointed
I learnt from the best, OGB being one of my references
I said it before I still do rhymes on any level and will never change
Music is me and it lives and stays in me and that will never change!!

shine on...


I look up I see the blue sky, its way up high
We say our prayers looking at sky high
Coz we know heaven is way sky high.
I remember how sick I feel with smoke rising high
My eyes are clouded and I feel rather high
I haven’t been smoking or doing anything to make me this high
But it’s the trouble we face got to my head making me this sick
I feel like maybe education was not key to good but just sick
Locked in a sick world with few alternatives, men its just sick
It’s a Tuesday and I feel wasted, how can this be for real?
I got questions no one is even here to answer shit is real
The life I have lived is huge a may make some serious real
A movie in a making we looking for a producer to work the real
A star was born back in September 29th never had a chance to shine
I still buffing and cleaning working no the glow so as to shine
I am not shop closed still open, facing each day to get the shine on
When I glow, I will lite the city and ensure its bright on
So I will look up and give God thanks for the life and the chance on
I will not waste it but to work and have my shine on
As I walk in the dark valley in this life I live, I will keep on and have my shine on.

from my mind.....


Straight from my mind, it’s like bottle drowned in my head now
My best friend my nigga for a while has been dead now
I think I have said all I said but what I left I will say now
I should have said it then, but now I say it to the clouds
Hoping you are listening, I am walking around right with my head down
At some point my day feels grey even if the suns out
I live just like you said it each day at a time so let’s pray
I get high always and I see you, I miss you
I keep my ten fingers together to bring shit together
On my knees I thank God for the greatness and for life
It may be cold but I try not to feel the cold within 
I feel like my world is getting dark by the day.
I need some light to shine right in my path each day
At this rate I am fading to black and I don’t want to go
Black is never a color of hope but a color of doom
Lord I don’t want to keep talking to the clouds
Bowing my head down wondering why is this world cold
I wish I’d have some answers to the life questions I have....

Have Mercy....


I'm trying to climb the stairways to heaven like peter pan
Find that polished treasure like the pirates in peter pan
Am told whatever you do will be shown on what you earn
I do my shit good so my son see heaven on Earth
But the stress I go thru’ to do it, is so heavy it hurts
I know I have clear and will for good intentions its worth
In a verse I will speak my heart and my intentions
So pure they are and clear they are my intentions
Like a preacher I will speak clear like in church
Know there's a lesson that I'm teaching If you seeking my verse
Like walking thru’ the valley of shadow of death
Done wrong I know to climb up in places
It’s not the best but its human nature for this us
My desire is to stick to what makes sense to me
By all means necessary, just to be legendary
I am armed by all means with my weapons
Ready to defend and I know I long the way I will hurt
I am not pure but I don’t intend to hurt anyone in this.

Please have mercy on me
Oh Lord, please have mercy on me


Pressure bust pipes, pressure can also make a diamond
Pressure can kill a man fighting with his mind desires
I lost my best friend just like that pressure building
Its like he self destructed way before his time
Battled with the sense that he was there no more
I remembered I had no control over it, God did
And he took him away, I got bitter coz I am a man
And I hurt and burn while in pain, just a man.
Since then I walk with fear in me wondering what life has been
Lord have mercy on me, make me whole again
I feel like my cup is empty and needs to be filled
I have bust people bubbles and please give me a chance
Watch over my poor soul coz I have failed over again
stepped on toes to move units, not fair
I burn with hate and I feel the worlds against me
My emotions take over and keeps away my goodness
Life’s hard and its tossing me over.
I feel like without you I can’t be nor make it
Just like David you watched over him and gave him good
In his lowest moments you still made him look great
I know it you love and care for so..

Please have mercy on me
Oh Lord, please have mercy on me....
