THIS IS MY LETTER TO MR PRESIDENT


[i]hey[i] mr president
i am saying this with no sentiments
isnt it evident
the fact we lost[i] homes in places we used to call residence
arrogance pride and greed
fueled by the desprate need to suceed
with so much oil and money
we still so poor desperately in need
its so crystal clear even da blind can see
dat we re suffering and living in misery
these are more than written words
unemployement wit graduates doing hand jobs
cos there is work especiallty with da loss of bank jobs
so tell me how u gonna relate to these facts
after promising a million mega watts
uninterupted power supply 247
and u still wanna come back in 2011
coruption spreading tru da country like hiv
i aint even gonna talk about the senate or the mighty pdp
mr president i hope u can see this the way i see
cos naija is own country.

dats my piece

I don't know how to show it/But I do care but I always blow it/I love you, I wish you'd know it/I break your heart but I can't sew it/Or these scars cuz I'm the one that broke it/And your face I soak it/With tears. I'm only strong enough to sit here/And try to make it up to you by writing these sht lyrics/I know it ain't enough but I want you to listen here/I'm sorry cuz it's my fault that we always git here/No matter how hard I try I can't get bolder/Especially with all this guilt held on my shoulders/I get crushed and look I can't get up, I'm not a soldier/And I keep getting older/And it's really too late/To help me/There's a time limit and they failed me/Well that's how I felt see/Or maybe all that sht just overwhelmed me/But I've already ruined your life and that can't change/Cuz I've already given you all that heart ache/And I can't wait till I can get out of that place/Cuz things will only get better at that pace/It's hard to come over, even on a Saturday/Cuz if I see someone I feel black and grey/What's gotten into me/Why I gotta make your life a misery/Silly me/I did it again, it's like infinity/I know even though you want me in your street, you must wanna get rid of me/I'm crazier than the industry

Not to sound like a chick, but I'm tired of the cheating.
Sometimes, I get tired of making love without meaning.
I mean, I wanted to cuff you before.
But, would you love me, or would the love become a bore.
This society doesn't give a crap about hearts.
They don't know how I feel when we're apart.
But, if you wanna go and sleep with grandpas?
You think I don't care, yeah, nah.
I love you, nope, I loved you.
Now I have the middle finger, f*ck you.
Go and nail those rich ass n*ggas.
Imma leave and find a girl with a sexier figure.

The Path I chose was rather one I created,
In this story every roads related,
The toll left me emaciated, tried to make it,
Came up short, my critics bellies satiated.
So Bleep this car, these tires deflated,
An empty tank, wondering if this script is fated.
Could you stand elevated through this mind of revelations?
Feeling like your hearts split into different destinations,
Beating to a different cadence, empty cause this vessels vacant,
Hands to fists, I can’t shake it, wish to give an explanation,
Why this soul went rogue to the best of my guesstimations.

These walls hold me secluded, by nature I’ve eluded,
To look back on the past so tonight I sit the student,
Before I wouldn’t refute it, but this title sits disputed,
Destitute and unproven, this struggling heart diluted,
Watch me while I do it, lace this verse and prove it.
Toss it up and chew it, consider these words my fluid,
Try to substitute my sense of intuition, but you can’t stop this movement.
Cause every phrase runs fluent, no competition could stand congruent.
I lit this candle, but they were the ones who blew it,
By blocking a dream unlived, these roadblocks such a nuisance,
If you lost your faith, I hope this next stanza renews it,
Before they tear me down again, I’ll match these words with music.
Build this castle out of adjectives, careful don’t abuse it,
Power leads to respect, but also creates confusion.

I am the ghost, the one writing in the shadows,
The poet with the pen fighting writing block battles,
You can shake this hand, but this conscience never rattles.
Tested and confirmed by the souls of these assholes,
So far gone now, might as well been swallowed by black holes,
Because they thought they could reach the tip of my flag pole,
But I’m a different breed, hard to please never on my knees,
I lacked a college degree, but no one ever took me off these feet,
My roots stretching through your minds, hard to resist a disease so sweet,
This natural resource of intellect that could never completely deplete,
I could fire literary salvos from my tongue faster than you can press delete.
An outcast with enough rhyming schemes to tie together any theme,
No matter the price of admission, I’ve reserved all of you seats,
So you can watch in disbelief as I finally produce the matching beat,
The one that pounds harder even after it hits repeat,
No fees for this demonstration, shock and awe serves as your receipt.

I dedicate this to nobody, because I’ve seen greed in the ugly,
Where they rely on others to make them their own money,
Hate me or Love me, now this bee quits making their honey,
Build my own comb to avoid something inhuman and unloving,
No pushing or shoving, or you’ll feel the sting and numbing,
I’ll walk through open flames when the rest of the worlds running,
Since patience is rewarded to the quick and the cunning,
So I open this box, let Pandora see me coming,
Because the worlds they fear are the same ones I’m hugging,
Pulling and lugging, I carry these fears because I own nothing,
A step from the past when every soul could muster something.

And now I realize there isn’t anything left here to prove,
I’ve been shunned with every single written submission,
Not what I had envisioned, I read every detail, shit I even listened,
Bent myself backwards to complete this final mission.
Write these words to link with a melodious fission,
So just please listen, see this grey and close the distance.
If it’s something you can vision,
Then you be this engine and I’ll be the pistons,
Be the coin to every well you wished in.
But for everyone against me, you can be the bowl I pissed in,
Bodies will be missing, insistent on resisting,
Every offer they give, this future I’m predicting,
You won’t be a part of this glow I’m emitting,
Because you bleeped me once, no need in fixing,
Past relationships I’m calling quits, matching wits,
Calling out the counterfeits, taking every benefit,
CallinTony Stark, we’re making new elements.

nyce posts by alex and hero am impressed

Gringing in and grinding out
Better bring your sorrow self out
Every rule I gave you seem to flout
Now i'll pin your damn ar*e like a tout
About to bout,
Take you from west to south
Advice you get out
Oh! wanna hear me shout
Brooding ill deeds long past
Spitting rhymes real fast
But at last
I've hung your shit like a mast
Dont cry, not yet
Ain't through, you bet
I'm up like a jet
Bulging checks and a fat wallet.
Care for some more?
Wanna see the encore
Trying not to get raw
The "F" Nairaland law.
Freestyling in this page
As wise as a sage
Spitting unspoken rage
cage ur aged wage
and wedge.
Outy! Ha!
(What am I saying?) Lol!

i am loving u so deeply
cant understand how i fell so easily
day and night u re my tormentor
caught me under ur spell like a confessor
and now am trapped caught in ur charm
blue eyes wit a love tatoo right under ur arm
my lady u leaved me sedated
for soo long i have patiently waited
meeting u is my greatest pleasure dat u must know
and u re a treasure like diamonds in a field of snow
am tired of this players life am tired of been alone
now searching for one like u one i could call my own
patiently waiting for meat no more da fattest bone
so come over seat next to me on my throne.

I don't want to get involved.

I've made a fool of myself.

is that all you got, abc?

it'd be a start for you
