Where is my passion
Far too much pain

Where is my passion
...

My mother whose eyes were strained
By a sadness that stained her eyes
With grey and blue hue
...

Emotionally bankrupt
Gone into receivership
Spent
Bent
...

I wanted you for my play mate
You turned out to be a stalemate
Poor headless toy
You pull out your own hair,
...

I want to get close to you
To be your friend
To share your views
To fuse
...

I accepted the part
Because I liked the leading man so much
He excited me
But the truth is
...

Not Alone

Sitting Alone
Watching the flickering lights
...

I am a big thing
I am wholesome
Substantial and self sufficient
...

Life is a b.tch and then you die
If I die what will be my reward
Snitch
Let me live and declare the works of God
...

What happens to a soul unnourished?
Does it quail
Like a snail
Or does it fail to flourish
...

I remember a long time ago when I use to dream
Dream of who I am today

I remember a long time ago when I use to feel
...

A whe me do so man
Why things a go wrong
A whe mi do so man
Mi noh understand
...

I am so tired
Tired of getting things wrong
Of making the same mistakes
Of not getting it on
...

Gloom ova de country
Time change
We naw read outta mcmillan book again
But bwoy
...

Play equals the ability
To apply flexibility
To particles encountered
And
...

Its all coming together now
Disenchanted beings
Demoralized by pain
Shame
...

I thank you god for the opportunity to live and transcend karma in this incarnation

I thank you God for a life of health
...

I must be strong
But not so strong
That nobody feel they can help me
...

You are packaged in plastic
Hidden from view
Wrapped up in plastic
Protecting who?
...

Each morning I wake up and find myself waiting
For oh so long I have been waiting
For divine ideas I have been waiting
To uplift my soul I have been waiting
...
