WESTSIDE GENTLEMEN

Wat up big west
my hood to be
I walk these streets
everyday and week
I'm cool at times
I live in crime
with theifs
and robbers
or even dealers
not pittsburgh steelers
on this westside
I walk so nice
and real polite
like sunny delight
bright days
no nights.
Excuse myself
I need no help
myself a man
and gentlemen
I am and know
who's on my side
my hood to be
is the WESTSIDE.

LOOSING SLEEP

I look and stare
but I can't sleep
I try to rest
my soul to sleep
I keep my thoughts
of good long sleep
I think for weeks
of how I sleep
I vision myself
layin down
on a beach
I loose my sleep
slowly by weks
my soul to keep
I want to sleep
I learn one day
no words to speak
I hope one day
I go to sleep.

LOST AND CONFUSED

What can I do?
or can I say?
sometimes I know
or never know
How can I live?
or What I want?
Who can I trust?
in me or them
I really don't know

What can I do?
I'm so confused
and lost
It's true
I think and wonder
How I can view
I think I'm lost
and so confused.

GETTIN TO HEAVEN

I've been so bad
in my whle life
I'm so confused
of where I'm going
I can't really see that
big bright light
that shines so far
in the dark.

I told few truths
and many lies
that glisten my eyes.
Which way can I go
Heaven or Hell?
I gotta stay strong
my view is long
I wanna hear that
gospel song.

LIFE

Life is like a picture
something you can save
or throw away.........
Life is like a book
with stories and
chapters..........

Life is like water
that you need and drink..........
Life is like a CD
that plays and stops
music...........

Life is like glass
that is fragile
and can break
at anytime.

It's not how you talk the
talk but how you carry
yourself around the way........

Everyday I think of life
as if I was afraid of
death and failue
and also shame.

I try nd live my life
not worried whats at the end
and I measure my time as if
it was the end.

I move like the force
the best that I can be
this is where I live
in life and society.
