Pen Point
Dear life, beg your pardon
I don't wanna say goodbye
Don't leave me no options
All in all, that leaves me to put my cards all in
For good causes, I'll share the pollen with you B
So let me blossom
To earn my stripes, I gotta stay solid
Finding peace under this pavement is my only issue
Underground but the growth proves the roots are exponential
My inspiration is my own potential
Letters are my own credentials
Meant to make you feel essential
Pick up the pencil
Dear death
I'm seeing darkness around me yeah
Who you gon' take next
Niggas never really beat your bounty
I pin point liquified thoughts
But staying solid as the rocks
They moving in boondocks
Clock work cause they tied up in shit
The system ain't unknot
Unlock our minds from the cell block
Life been testing me
Thank God I wrote the answers on my palm for later
Water vapor on this paper
Venting til I'm on a ventilator
Spoken word to my creator
I need something greater for me
I don't plagiarize these papers
This is purely my ink
Anguished so I plead, plead, plead, plead
I just pray to be free yeah
I need something greater for me
I can't pen point it but this is purely my ink
Hopeless so I plead, plead, plead, plead
I would pay to be free yeah uh
Dear whatever higher power hears me (Can you hear me?)
Tentatively I been out of reach
But I really need you dearly
Clearly you quitting on me I know it
You supposed to be strong for us but you put in a two week notice
Now I'm open wounded not healed
Out in the field yeah
Don't know how I'm still here
None of this feels real yeah
On this road, don't steer clear of
Obstacles in mirrors that are closer than they appear yeah
Apparently approaching hypocrisy cause I still fear
Dear America
Apologize right now for failing us
Been acting in character, we're tired
And it ain't fair to us
Fuck the system it's ran by 90 year old whites
Taking away our women's rights
What's next? Gay and black lives
Like I can't get up cause life hanging shit over my head
My soul un alived at the scene like I'm aligned with the dead
Preacher said Look right, left, say hi to neighbors
At a loss of words instead
I need hiatus
Spoken word to my creators
I need something greater for me
I don't plagiarize these papers
This is purely my ink
Anguished so I plead, plead, plead, plead
I just pray to be free yeah
I need something greater for me
I can't pen point it but this is purely my ink
Hopeless so I plead, plead, plead, plead
I would pay to be free yeah (I would)
Chosen to be standing
Time will damage any man
If they not willing to manage
Open wounds, so amused
Some are too prideful
To use a bandage
God hand me something
I can use to my advantage
If you even hear me
I don't wanna say goodbye
Don't leave me no options
All in all, that leaves me to put my cards all in
For good causes, I'll share the pollen with you B
So let me blossom
