Rap Roll Call...



If I remember right
I remember one time
One time
I watched a performance one night
I remember as I applauded
As I applauded in my head I performed my own instalment
My instalment about the difference between poets and rappers
The difference between real lyrical lyricists and real lyrical actors
As I remember on the night the poet had the audacity
The audacity, to leave out Marshall
I remember I shook my head
As in my head I said let me audacious and say
And say in matter of fact Marshall, Matters
Marshall, Matters and so does
Pac, Nas, Snoop, Hill,
Eve, Mell, Flav, Gill
T.i, Luda, Fiddy, Kweli
Def, Flocka, Soulja, Stalley
Salt, Pepper, Wale, Yeezy
Joey, Jay, Free, Jeezy
Run, Common, Cam, Kelly
Lux, Solomon, Mook, Nelly,
Ness, Tech, Diddy, Busta,
Asap, Gambino, Wu, Bubba
Brown, Cole, Remy Game,
Big Boi, 3000, Dre, Mase
I dreaded it
I dreaded it but I even added Wanye
I dreaded it
I dreaded it but I even added Chains
I remember in my head I said
Poetry and rap are intermixed
Chained together like two slaves
Poetry and rap are interlinked 
Every diss-track, Every E.P, Every mix-tape, Every album, Every internet leak
Matters
Its matters because in matter of fact
It’s actually poetry being carried on the back of the beat…

A Prophet's Block...




I’m
I’m going to
I’m going to build this
Build this story, brick by brick by brick
Brick by brick by brick by brick by brick by brick
Brick by brick by brick by brick by brick in the shape of a py ra mid
to ask  the question
What is   
What is a Writer's block to a Prophet's bricks?
Lets begin;  


Brick
The father,
The father gave the son,
brick, brick, sight to see, brick,
brick, sight to see something, brick, brick
brick, which others couldn’t see, brick, brick 
                                            brick,brick ,brick, then the father, brick, brick, brick   
brick ,brick, equip the son with a stick, brick, brick
brick, brick, brick, to part the sea, brick, brick, brick, brick   
brick, brick, brick, brick, to indeed, brick, brick, brick, brick 
brick, brick, brick, brick, to lead the meek, brick, brick brick, brick
brick, brick, brick ,to a world of freedom of speech, brick, brick
brick, brick, brick, brick, ironically, brick, brick, brick, brick, brick   
brick, brick, brick, it all started with a speech, brick, brick, brick, brick  
brick, brick, brick, brick, brick, with the Pharaoh, brick, brick, brick, brick brick 
It all started with a speech, with the Pharaoh, as the son began to plead, please let my people go,
brick, brick, brick, brick, brick, please let me people go Pharaoh, brick, brick, brick, brick, brick    
 brick,brick, brick, Pharaoh let my people go free, Pharaoh, let my people be at peace brick, brick, 
brick, brick, brick, brick, Pharoah, let my people be at peace, brick, brick, brick, brick, brick, 
brick ,brick, please, remove the chains, Pharaoh, from my people’s feet, brick, brick, brick, brick  
Please, remove the chains, Pharaoh, from my people’s feet, Pharaoh, it took strength for him to say,
brick, brick, brick, it took even greater strength for him to say, as he, dropped to his knees, brick, brick 
Farther, please, break these, bricks in front of, the eyes of my people, brick by brick, for they refuse to see

The Existentialist Lyricist...

Now everybody from the six sixteen
Put your motherfucking hands up and follow me 
Everybody from the six sixteen put your motherfucking hands up
look, look,
I just have enough time
I just have enough time to keep it real
Just have enough time to keep it real so let me tell
So let me tell HueManny-T how I really really feel
Tell HueManny-T how I really really feel because the truth is
 The truth is it truthfully seems to me like HueManny-T 
Like HueManny-T has been popping pills
Been popping pills it seems to me 
It seems to me HueManny-T 
HueManny-T is afraid of whats really really real
 HueManny-T is afraid of whats really really real within reality
Really really real within reality forreal 
Forreal so let me keep it real with HueManny-T  
HueManny-T as you were on the mic 
As you were mic I stood silently questioning your sanity
 I stood silently questioning your sanity as it seems to me HueManny-T 
HueManny-T you been living in a fantasy
You been living a fantasy with new hope
A fantasy with new hope it seems to me HueManny-T 
Its seems to me HueManny-T on the mic 
On the mic you just cant cope
  You just cant cope so truthfully 
So truthfully I felt the need 
I felt the need to pass you a dope rope
 Pass you a dope rope and tell you to hang yourself 
Tell you to hang yourself while I give the other guy  
 While I give the the other guy my lyrical rope a dope
 My lyrical rope a dope while I take lyrical aim at your frame 
Take lyrical aim at your frame and watch you go up in smoke  
Watch you go up in smoke but don't worry HueManny- T 
Don't worry HueManny-T as i've already prewritten your eulogy
Prewritten your eulogy and supplied it with jokes
 supplied it with jokes just like how did HueManny-T
How did HueManny-T choke?
 How did HueManny-T choke before I gave him the rope?
Before I gave him the rope did he finally?
Did he finally legally change his name from HueManny-T?
Change his name from HueManny-T for the greater good of humanity
For the greater good of humanity how the hell 
how the hell you gonna have HueManny-T
How the hell you gonna have HueManny-T written on your grave stone ?
On your grave stone ill tag my tag next to the words in loving memory
Next to the words in loving memory so your family 
So your family can remember me but truthfully
Truthfully i'm done with you and the jokes
I'm done with you and the jokes because the joke is
 The joke is J-Justice you the joke
You the joke J-Justice 
You the joke J-Justice as your hailed by the kids
 Your hailed by the kids and even their dads
 Your hailed by the kids and even their dads even their moms
Your hailed by the kids and even their dads even thier moms even their dads mistresses
Your hailed by the kids but they don't even know who J-Justice really really is
They don't even know who J-Justice really really is so you tell me J-Justice 
You tell me J-Justice where the justice really really is?
  Where the justice really really is in matter of fact tell me 
In matter of fact tell me J-Justice where J-Justice really really lives?
Tell me where J-Justice really really lives so I can live out your nightmares J-Justice 
Live out your nightmares J-Justice and sit outside J-Justice's crib
Sit outside J-Justices's crib to live out my dreams J-Justice 
To live out my dreams J-Justice to show you J-Justice what justice really really is
  To show you J-Justice what justice really really is by introducing your face to my fists 
 By introducing your face to my fists to adjust your lips
  To adjust your lips to show you what the real world really really is 
To show you what the real world really really is with all its injustices
With all its injustices and with all the starving kids
  All the starving kids and with all the people that are left homeless
 With all the people that are left homeless and all the the people that are left hopeless
All the people that are left hopeless and all the people that are left hoping
All the people that are left hoping and all the people that are left moping 
All the people that are left, moping, hoping, hoping hopeless, hopeless, homeless and homeless
Homeless and let me not forget the starving kids J-Justice

A Surrealist's Solution...


   

The memories to this one I have none
The memories to this one I have none so I was retold this one
I was retold this one and told it had begun one on one
I was retold this one and told then it became two on two
I was retold this one and told then it became three on three
I was retold this one and told then it became four on four
I was retold this one and told then it became four on four then I one
Then I one ended up on the floor on all fours
On all fours because I was all for fighting four
The memories to this one I have none
The memories to this one I have none for all I know I was on all fours at four
The memories to this one I have none for all I know I was on all fours at five
At five I still had no memory of this one so I tried to add the four to the five
I tried to add the four to the five at six
At six I tried to add the four to the five as I found myself dressed to the nines
I found myself dressed to the nines as I tried to add the six to the four to the five
I tried to add the six to the four to the five to put together two and two
To put together two and two but I was surprised as I somehow surprisingly solved one and five
I somehow surprisingly solved one and five at seven
At seven I still had no memory of this one so I tried to times this time with the five
With the five I tried to times the one to the two to the two to the four to the six to the nine
To the nine I tried to times the six to the four to the two to the two to the one to the five
I tried to times the nine to the six to the four to the two to the two to the five to put together two and two
To put together two and two but I was surprised as I somehow surprisingly solved nine
I somehow surprisingly solved nine so I subtracted one
So I subtracted one as I anxiously ate I somehow surprisingly solved eight
As I anxiously ate I somehow surprisingly solved eight at eight
At eight I still had no memory of this one so I tried to divide this time with the nine
With the nine I tried to divide the eight to the one to the five to the two to the two to the four to the six
To the six I tried to divide the four to the two to the two to five to the one to the eight to the nine
I tried to divide the six to the four to the two to the two to the five to the one to the eight to the nine to put together two and two
To put together two and two but I was surprised as I somehow surprisingly solved five
I somehow surprisingly solved five at nine
At nine I still had no memory of this one so I tried to times the five to the nine
I tried to times the five to the nine but I was surprised as I somehow surprisingly solved four and five
I somehow surprisingly solved four and five at nine
At nine I somehow surprisingly solved the solution and put together two and two
Put together two and two finally realizing that my mind's memories would forever be lost in time

Public Service Apology...

Well as you have probably guessed from my last post that I have begun to write once again. As I still strongly believe that I still have things to share. I still also believe I still have issues to resolve within myself to offer myself resolution. This post is to publicly apologize for calling 'The Beast Within A Boy' my final post. After time away I have thought about my premature statement long and hard and I believe it was foolish of me to think my journey had ended. Its ironic that I named my last public service message 'Every Ending Brings Forth A New Beginning'. My latest post can act a new beginning, so in reality my journey has just begun...

Kindest Regards
Just Another Brother

Cafe Jouissance...



I remember the day I woke up inside
Inside the café to the bittersweet sweet smell of decafe
I remember telling the waiting waitress inside the café
I remember telling the waiting waitress about the delightful decafe
The waiting waitress had caught my watchful eyes
The waiting waitress waited watchfully
The waiting waitress waited watchfully waiting
The waiting waitress waited watchfully waiting for the catch
In matter of fact there was a catch
Imagine that in matter of fact there was a catch
Imagine that in matter of fact there was a catch and it was a chat
We went at it
We went at it as we chatted
We went at it as we chatted and acted
We went at it as we chatted and acted at the counter
We chatted and acted at the counter but every chat up line she counter acted
Imagine that the counteraction led me to act so I acted
Imagine that the counteraction led me to act so I acted with action
I acted with action
I acted with action which led to a reaction
I acted with action which led to a reaction which was passion
Which was passion but at least I can now passionately say
I can now passionately say she now wakes up next to me
Wakes up next to me in a new reality
In a new reality with her thought finally free
Finally free from the café and bittersweet sweet smell of decafe
