I pen this thoughts as a special dedication 2 Jean Crae of the group 'Floetry'. Thanx 4 d inspiration. SOUL SISTA i travelled through sound trying to find my soul rhythm drawn to the eccentric afrocentricity of baduism then i found Lauryn before she found Zion she was killing me softly wtout even trying vividest expressnz of thot captured on vinyl we experienced d joy of defeat transformed 2 triumph The miseducatn album was us droppin that love science i lived every day wt Ms Hill in broken silence then came d drama wt d marleys she made a break frm d rational tried 2 reconnect wt L boogie on "Mr International" just was not d same all i touched was pain she in her own world im doing solos in d rain Never ever thot i would find a Soul Sista till Jean made me 'Say Yes' ma hrt and soul kissed her 'My tears become Orphans' i repeated that line often that voice, that lisp whispered in ma ears often naturally deep u had me talkin in ma sleep reciting your poetry churning up d sheets never thot i'd find ma soul sista in d UK bt your whole vibe had me goin like 'Touchè!' Tho we've never met your ill thoughts rocked ma mental harder than d cyphaz u spat on instrumentals frm d moment i pressed play i found soul-kindred floetry, u had dat fluency needed 2 spark ma interest 2 albums later, im still discovering u u inspire me,Jean aint many women like u wish dat i cud paint u take a picture of ur soul I thank God dat he made u a story yet to unfold i wish i was in luv bt dis right here is much deeper thanx 4 inspiring me,Jean ma soul sista! |

"My Swag Vol 2" Man, I feel like I got a God visit Memories categorized in anticipation I dwell in prison visit Came in black cusz I just lost one today Shot fired in me, angers I wished never was any way Locked in my body, self conscious my voice yelling in me Like I heard my daughter crying "Open the door, daddy it's me" Ghosts flying, images crafting I can see the lords visit But my swag so high it was only a reminiscent visit Chapters I got, My swag higher than Coke cooked in a pot Back in the 80's when I never got a birthday gift from the man I wished was pop Keys to visitations n' this keyboard was all I got If it wasn't for heavens, I wouldn't believe there was God |
Re: Emceez Poetik: The Spoken Word Thread by Rapsody(m): 12:09pm On Jul 07, 2008 |

"My Swag Vol 3" Chemicals invade chronicals of man Nights despair the agony of a tragic daylight Lines of tears in oceans as Oceans proceed to sky There and now with hands tied up waving hi My past in guns now I spray words in poetry Gifts of a cripple my swag comes with heriditary Man of chronicals invade chemicals Hi waving up tied hands with now and there Proceed with into the leave wit faith and care |

Re: Emceez Poetik: The Spoken Word Thread by Shaz(f): 6:30pm On Jul 15, 2008 |
I don't know why I always key long-assed isht but here it goes [center]The Road Thatz Narrow I'm just trying key the pieces to the puzzle like a nut to the bolt Like the thunderbolt, you 'can't climb' even if you were a ladder because you hit the wrong note Fixing my eyez ahead like a groom at the altar expectin the bride The bride is coming late, the groom's still smilin' tho he got a different thing on the mind The whole congregation's waitin', some are at the reception already The Road is Narrow, Steep and Sharp like an Arrow but I still gotz go steady Holding on to the creeks as I creep around the steep edges of the motorway It's like walkin in the rain, you lose your steps and slide back all the way, there's more to tha pain You finally get back but there's too many people trying to squeeze past The air is tough, the breathing is rough, the brain can't register when to and when not to breathe fast You're being stared at like you're naked or you're clothed and everyone else is naked It's like a fat cow at the abbatoirs, all eyes on you, you're next to death, your endtime is stated Well, that's how it feels when you're climbing that road to success - no one's supportin' That's how it is when you're following your doctrine - everyone's not supportin' Thatz The Road Thatz Narrow [/center] |

Hrd Common say 'when forever gon come?' my sentiments exactly, will ma senses go numb frm listenin to d crap and nonsense we call songs? ma soul takes refuge in faith love and solitude lonliness embraces me as i display fortitude walk wt a righteous persona wt a swag and an attitude i know one day Muzik will acknowledge me a true work of d art,real wt no hypocrisy who dropped science str8 frm d heart wt no apologies until then, im a kip on speakin d TR.UT.H livin d very linez that i spit in d booth God-Hip hop is d movement! Rhyme + reason 4 youths Tha Rap Prophet got a lyrical illness a fever for believerz wt a passion 4 skillz blessed silent mic science stay feenin 4 realness [Shout-out 2 ma boy,Jduck A.k.a J-Nice tha Lyrikal Assassin] |

"My Swag Vol 4" Tears of a man I recall in smile of mine Secrets of the irony dwelled was his in dime Holy was sacrified his mine in the sake of vain Cry was his mine in the sake of pain Travelled are his soul to the valley of no more Battered are his minds in the land but he now in smile Sweats of a land prisoner, he dwelt no more Shade of the sky he resides with cheers of wine Past his image of siblings, he walked behind Rage, Anger but with comforts where he now reside Can't wait, can't see the past or what he left behind Mine cries till this day "Mama come join me where I now reside" |

Thatz cool. Rhaps. . much props. Just another verse [center] The guy's life is like a desert, there's not a soul to be found Nothing's grown in there for a while, there's an echo but no sound On the outside, ma lil' guy is broken like old OK plastics The mind is working on the next tactic, planning to get his heart back from the attic And while he's at it, flashbacks hit the times he tot were fantastic But now his life is static, a pain in the flesh like government taxes Put the memories behind him cuz he says he's way past it Life ain't bout the dough you make, but the number of practice That keeps you way above the waters like Jesus walked The effort you put to something can't leave, a good name cannot be socks(spoilt) So this guy woke up from the trance that he was in Gotta get the life goin and get it goin in the morning[/center] |

Re: Emceez Poetik: The Spoken Word Thread by ripple(m): 4:58pm On Jul 24, 2008 |
lets go! lets go beyond the inception, way before my past, when the beginning never existed the end never known, when music seemed to be dead, and humming had no tone, Lets take a walk into the future, where mistake make the present its clone the love for hatred leaving togetherness alone!, the present would have been dead, buried in either shame or pride, the then 'past' having so much to hide. lets embark on a journey into the mysterious, where our third eye sees only the abstract, scoptoma! as such we are blind to reality, but when asked to compare , we cant tell how they contrast, we cant tell how they were made or why, we just know tis way beyond the eye! lets go!!!![color=#550000][/color] am a new member yall! where is the poetry forum here |
