Black on Black
6:00 in the morning
Gimme a little while longer to get my rest
I set my alarm for 10 more minutes
Then I forget
To get up when
It goes off
Sleeping too good
Rather stay awake than doze off
Maybe then I'll finish
This whole list I gotta do
Cause this 9-5 is interfering
Giving me the blues
This won't last forevers
What I tell myself
But I can choose
To keep getting distracted
When I'm focusing
Or put my full effort in it
It's simple,
The armed services looking good
Got big dreams for my legacies
Like black men should
But I still fight everyday with this music
It's no way God gave me this gift just to lose it
I refuse to believe it
But I get squeamish thinking about the chances
Of making it big
My aunt and uncle kept telling me
Chances
Are you won't make it so stay safe
It hunted me forever
Locking this fear inside my brain
Man...
So on this new day of April 12th, 2016
I'll get rid of the fear that's plagued my mind since 16
Before I went to Bowie State
And pursued something
That wasn't in my heart
Just to keep my folks jumping
For joy, if I deploy
I'll leave you with this one thing
Never give up your passion
Life is passing
It seems you'll be young forever
But by the time you're reaching 25
Your months slowly turn to days
And you'll be left wondering why
You let another convince you
That your dream is not quite valid
If it's not conventional
You're better off just looking past it
And you don't want to do that
You would hate driving in traffic
Working your menial job
When your creative mind could be grasping onto something worthy
Of time
Cuz with every rhyme
I feel like I'm in heaven
Living on a cloud nine
This feeling is how life should be
Don't get so caught up on tryna live your life so properly
That you lose sight and possibly
Your dreams
