Late Bloomer US Boomers All Kings Diseasy

Most men believe vulnerability means ur weak, speak on the bleak not just happy, live in ur truth uncensored, y'all social medially indentured, showing only the highlight reel, instead of expressing how u really feel, good or bad, mad and sad, be exploitful, when ur joyful, but don't get caught up in illusion, forgive my intrusion, I'm always deep, sew yet don't reap, so not superficial, rude or hypocritical, especially intentionally, I'm multidimensionally me, an openly gay double Gemini, knowingly submissive but non effeminate guy, super emotional tho, totally a stoner hoe, only indica please, I'm minimalist chic not cheap, perhaps frugal, is wishing hip hop success futile, cuz my life would be in vain, that plight's strife's wracking my brain, humanity's stain, it's insanity shame's engrained in the pained, engraved in the hearts and souls of the enslaved, beholden to cave, taught and told to behave, just remain quiet, the rich and powerful disdain riots, knowledge is revolutionary, free education is evolutionary, the US are apparently late bloomers, the youth's doomed cuz baby boomers, who refuse to relinquish and share the wealth, they never took initiative to protect planetary health, colonization killed that initiative thru a trail of tears, nowadays the whole globe's controlled by fear, injustice running rampant, 1% comfortably glamping, all kings diseasy selfish and greedy, eradicating any welfare programs supporting the poor and needy, our government's disgusting, cutting and gutting, democracy at its core, capitalism's flawed wanting exponentially more, that's simply unsustainable, some stereotypes falsely identify/label, which just fucks love up, scarcity sucks, but we willingly hamster wheely rely on luck, to miraculously help get us unstuck!

Why Not Give It All We Got

I love soul rnb pop rock and esp hip hop, but I'm at the point I need to get a day job, y'all don't crave enough to pay, not sure if it's cuz I'm too old white privileged or openly gay, or perhaps I'm to blame, getting in my own way, overwhelmed by concentrated grief, how do I maintain any hope faith or belief, even down on my knees, I'm not being heard or seen, like I'm not worthy of existence, my life's defined by my resilience/consistent persistence, am I close to done yet, with all that I've given when do I get, of course I'm upset I'm hurt, feel cursed since birth, just me and my mom, wondering can a sub become dom, gotta switch up tactics, instead of defensive get active, go after what I want, stay humble tho don't gloat or flaunt, help lift others up, spread lots of hugs and love, cuz we never know, if there's no tomorrow, enjoy each moment to the fullest, play this metaphorical game of life bullish, I mean why not, give it all we got!

Fuck No Homo Stoner Bro Poets Allowed

Indecision becomes a prison, why isn't anybody listening, I'm responsible but don't make major decisions, in my opinion evil is ruling over our dominion, and good people are getting screwed, karma's confused, I'm tired of being used and abused, shooed and poo pooed by the lewd crude prude, I'm super insecure being publically nude, and I don't know why, I'm slightly bashful but not a shy guy, by any means, considered a pot fiend, cuz yeah I'm probably high, like 97% of the time, life's just better stoned, my hip hop craft has been fine tuned/honed, I'm at the point in my life, I'm hungry to fight, so watch out, I'm rap ready to bout, now that I've got some clout, fuck this no homo stoner bro poets allowed!

No Too Soon To Say I Love U

When's too soon, to say I love u, 3 days weeks or months, I don't say it tons, just moments I truly feel it, that real shit, but it doesn't need to be said in return, u learn the yearn, over a non specified period of time, without reason but in rhyme, there's different levels, it can completely destroy and deshevel, needs to be mourned and grieved, when it's complete, I mean where does the love go, when the relationship's done tho, seems to translate into hate, I wanna break that fate, at least remain friends, that type of connection never ends, fuck sex, and y'alls definition of success, I want peace, and to be happy, which he makes me, especially lately, not in a codependent way, but it ain't easy being gay, like my dad asked he lifts me up, washes my worries away with his big bear hugs, even when life gets rough and tough, I hope he knows he's just as unconditionally loved!

Revolutionary Activism

Hip hop is revolutionary activism, but most ya'll ain't living or listening, music is supposed to be transcendent and enlightening, there's a big difference between freestyle battling and songwriting, esp since I'm only authentic and genuine, I'm much more of a humble gentleman, but that don't make me a nice chump finishing last, I don't feel the need to put others on blast, I'd rather self deprecate than appropriate, definitely ain't trying to perpetuate hate, but since I'm gay and white, best believe I'm here queer and ready to ignite that fight, to help love win, when will fun rebegin, I haven't had any since I was a kid, death and grief make it impossible to forgive, what's the point, if existence is just a Shakespearean tragedy I'm pissed off/annoyed, fairness and justice are fairytale fables, I'm always ready willing and able, to throw a R.A.P show on the spot, giving my whole heart and soul with all that I've got, to entertain y'all, while I navigate life's trustfall, knowing none of u will even try to catch me, does anyone else think about legacy, I'm still determined to make mine epic, probably seem crazy and eccentric, to think a faggot cracker rapper can succeed in the mainstream, selling out stadiums and winning Grammys, I don't care if u equally agree or believe, cuz only I can achieve my own dreams I conceive!

A Boss Breaking Cycles

Still trying to figure out how to break cycles that are toxic, this hamster wheel shit is tired and obnoxious, I'm pissed at god, why does life gotta be this unfair and hard, like it's simply torture we survive, seems like ain't a chance in hell on earth I'll ever thrive, even as a masculine gay white dude, thinking I can make it in the rap game am I a fool, I'm confident in myself, but nobody makes it without help, half my family is dead and gone, wondering when I no longer have to mourn, mom's health is declining, and every day I awake I'm finding, more stress pressure and responsibility, I'm only human without any super hero abilities, isn't that common sense, perhaps these are all reasons I justify staying bent, I don't drink much smoke cigs or do hard drugs, cuz I'm all about love and spreading hugs, never feel like I'm enough, no easy street all roads are tough, that's why I live to serve, u get what u give is what I've learned, instead y'all give what u get, hurt people hurt people bet, my community is broken, I've tried to be a revolutionary example being outspoken, but I'm repeatedly dismissed, equal opportunity and support are my biggest wish, am I standing on that ledge alone, my reputation and character should not be defined by who I bone, I wear my heart not my sexuality on my sleeve, I have unwavering hope and faith u best believe, I'm determined to be seen and heard, I'll use both hip hop and spoken word, whatever gets my point across, remember to never ever underestimate a boss!
