Please don't be broke spoke my brain to my heart,
So my heart told my brain stay sharp,
And please don't be broke said my wallet to my pocket
So my pocket told my wallet stay smart,
And my soul told my feet to be careful of the street
Where they beat, so my feet turned cold
Worried if my ex, told my next, that I'm a cause of stress,
And the stress told my spine now fold,
But my mind told my back to get back until aligned,
Sent a line to my lips - like rhyme,
And the rhyme skimmed the skies, till it fell into your ears
Told your eyes, to your fears, be blind

Seeing around, we're around dreamless,
Judging by my jeans, life'll never be seamless
You, call her a bitch, I switch that to a seamstress
Weaving us a tapestry, rapidly truth will seem dressed,
But in the naked flesh. truth is hurting
Till your flirting with your death, I see the many friends
I laid to rest, I promise you I'll do you proud,
Grandfather I can feel your glance, in a lance of light
Shining through the clouds…

Here's where you really have to hold on,
Learn to write, when you go wrong,
What have I left to me, when I'm gone but old songs,
Cut my story short, saying so long

I hope that you relate to me,
When in many ways my own family don't
Now I could offer you fairy tales,
But well, I'm well aware reality won't
So I don't dwell on what I never had
Simple things like a safe home,
Words will never hurt you, my virtue
Is that mine will break bones,
Yet to destroy is all too easy,
To create, now that's hard believe me…
And my creation is here,
I hold this verse immersed in hurt
And shed no tears… after all
It's just a song.
And then i'm gone.
