lyrically reflective

lyrically reflectiveThursday, 27 November 2008 at 22:10why cant ya see my words choose me,
introspective
I'm lyrically reflective
boding along
to the rhythm of my own song
taking my time
to gel with my own rhyme
complications hell bent on revealing
situations that seem to be peeling
the frame work
of calm
i worked so hard to embalm
in the fractures of my mind
that i rounded into a rind,
of tough hardened lessons
from the many hard years
of self honest confessions
worked into a lattis
a complicated mattress
of Tied in strong
an self possed wrong
all worked through the mangle
real time taken
to untangle
an I'm done with tests alarm
dragged strait from
the funny farm
i tell you this
its true
I'm done with stress
I'm through
excitement enticement
phat bites of fright
once causing delight
in the bright glare of day
caught in the mayhem of the
fray
its all come around now
in standing in the bright glare
of reality's kicks
my life cant
take more pin pricks
an so
I'm boding along
whilsting my own song
enjoying my calm
letting go
of wasted alarm
an the girl that once knew
fear an loneliness
its true
is grown now an
strong
now its clear
I'm not wrong.

Nice rap..

Definitely to be performed . Good bounce, excellent attack. Read it loud Vix, move with it see how you feel physically as you attack it. I think you'll find it works barr a hiccup here or there. Kal
