LIFE IS SHORT

LIFE IS SHORT
AND LIFE IS A SPORT
SO WE MUST PLAY EVERYDAY
OF THE WEEK
AND WE MUST STUDY
LIKE A GEEK
UNTIL WE REACH
OUR PEAK
SO WE CAN'T SLEEP
TO LONG
BECAUSE LIFE IS SHORT
LIKE A FILM
OR A SWIM
OR LIL KIM
SO EVERY OUNCE COUNTS
SO BOUNCE
YEAH MOVE
YEAH WE MUST FIND
OUR GROOVE
RIGHT NOW
BECAUSE ALL WE HAVE
TO GRAB
ON
TO
IS
ME
AND
YOU
BECAUSE LIFE IS SHORT
BOO
LIFE IS SHORT

STEPPING STONE

A MOMENT
A MINUTE
AN HOUR
HOLDS SO MUCH POWER
IN A DAY
IF WE LOOK AT IT THAT WAY
SO YEAH I SAY
CHERISH EVERY SINGLE ONE
YEAH HAVE SOME FUN
MEANING WALK AND DON'T RUN
OR JUST SIT IN THE SUN
AND REFLECT
ON HOW STRONG YOU ARE
OR HOW FAR YOU HAVE COME
YEAH UNTIL GOD'S WILL IS DONE
IN YOUR LIFE
BECAUSE THIS TIME
LIKE THIS RHYME
IS PRICELESS
SO YOU SEE
THAT BRINGS ME BACK
TO MY FIRST FACT
A MOMENT
A MINUTE
AN HOUR
HOLDS SO MUCH POWER

A GOOD LECTURE

sins of my friends
sins of my father
man they both seem to bother me
like i'm squeaky clean
yeah like i've been such a queen
but then my soul screams
stop
because my love
you are not a cop
or a judge
so you do not have the right
to hold a grudge
so bug off
or talk soft
because you are not THE BOSS
who found you when you were loss
in sin
just like your friends
and your father
so strengthen up daughter
and fly right
yes day and night
like a kite
until you are out of sight
meaning when they see you
they only see me
yes in clouds
or in the trees
depending on the breeze
so get on your knees
and repent
because everybody was meant
to be loved

BAITING AND WAITING

HOW DO I REALLY FEEL TODAY?
DO YOU REALLY WANNA KNOW?
WELL I'M LOOKING INTO WAYS
TO ERASE MY GRAYS
AND GROW
SOME MO'
ON THE INSIDE
AS WELL AS OUT
YEAH I AM A FISHERMAN
WITH A PLAN
TO CATCH A TROUT
FOR CLOUT
IN THE CLOUDS
WHERE THE TRUMPETS
BLOW LOUD
IN A CROWD
FULL OF ANGELS
AND GOD
BUT THIS ROD
CALLED LIFE
IS NO PARADISE
AND IS VERY HARD
BUT IT IS NOT IMPOSSIBLE
SO I'M GONNA BE UNSTOPPABLE
UNTIL I HAVE NO MORE WILL
LEFT IN ME
TO BREATHE
OR TO SEE
CLEARLY
BECAUSE I DEARLY WANNA DO MY BEST
BEFORE I REST
IN THE WIND

AIR MAIL

SHERI
IT'S STILL SCARY
WITHOUT YOU HERE
YEAH I STILL CRY
SOME TEARS
WE SPENT SO MANY YEARS
TOGETHER
AND I NEVER THOUGHT
I WOULD BE HERE
AND YOU WOULD BE THERE
UP IN THE WIND MY FRIEND
LIKE A BALLOON
OR LIKE A BEAUTIFUL
MUSICAL
TUNE
PLAYING ON REPEAT
BUT I CAN'T SEE YOU
IN MY NATURAL VIEW
BUT I KNOW YOU ARE TRUE
AND REAL
BECAUSE I CAN FEEL
YOU
EVEN IN
THE STILLNESS
MY FRIEND
WHO FEELS MORE LIKE KIN
SO IT'S A SIN
YOU AND ME
ARE APART
YEAH IT REALLY HURTS MY HEART
TO START
OVER
WITHOUT
YOU
NEAR
ME
WHERE
I
CAN
SEE
BUT
OH WELL
GIVE HEAVEN HELL GIRL

THINK ABOUT MATTHEW

WE ALL
HAVE WORN A MASK
AND WE ALL
HAVE A PAST
SO WHY DO WE CONSTANTLY
CHASTISE EACH OTHER
AS THOUGH WE ARE PERFECT
LIKE GOD
WHICH WE ARE NOT
BY A LONG SHOT
I MEAN WE ARE OKAY
AT BEST
IF WE TRULY CONFESS
OUR MESS
BEHIND CLOSE DOORS
AND NOT TO MENTION
OUR INTERNAL WARS
YEAH SHOW OUR EMOTION SORES
YEAH WHAT A GOREY SCENE
BUT AT LEAST WE WOULD ALL BE CLEAN
AND AT PEACE
SO RELEASE YOUR OWN TROUBLES
YEAH POP YOUR OWN BUBBLES
BEFORE YOU JUDGE
SOMEONE ELSE'S CRUD
BECAUSE CLOWN
YOU CAN ALSO DROWN
BY PULLING SOMEONE DOWN
SO DON'T EVEN TRY
UNLESS YOU TOO ARE READY TO DIE

HERE COMES THE BRIDE

MY HEART IS BREATHING
AND MY EYES ARE OPEN
TO EXPERIENCING NEW THING
COULD IT BE SPRING?
OR JUST SUNNY OUTSIDE
WELL EITHER WAY
I FEEL LIKE BECOMING A BRIDE
OF CHRIST
SINCE HE GAVE ME LIFE
WHEN HE HUNG ON THE CROSS
SO THAT I WOULDN'T BE ETERNALLY LOST
YEAH SO LOVE DOES COST
SOMETHING
THAT MONEY CAN'T BUY
YEAH THAT'S NO LIE
HE DID MORE THAN TRY
AND NOW HIS LIVING IN THE SKY
AND IN THE SWEET BY AND BY
AT THE SAME TIME
YEAH BECAUSE HE 9IS THE ONE
WHO IS REALLY WRITING THIS RHYME
YEAH HIS SPIRIT SHINES
THROUGH ME
CREATIVELY
SO YOU SEE
MY HEART IS BREATHING
AND MY EYES ARE OPEN
TO NEW THINGS
YEAH NEW DREAMS
ALL BECAUSE OF LOVE
SO HERE COMES THE BRIDES
