Stand back

Written when I thought my writing was too deep for anyone to be able to relate to or understand

My mind is like a whirlwind
Better stand back because the fuse is shorter than it should be
You want to tell me that I’m too authentic, but I think that’s pathetic
To write is to live for me, and that is why I am back writing
Better stand back there’s been a sighting
It can be as scattered as the world after a tornado
Picking up my life’s pieces, with no where to release them
The things going on inside of my mind right now, it’s scary sometimes
Is it because I haven’t let the words out and think my thoughts are crimes
Better stand back, because I have decided to share my thoughts on paper
Wait come closer, because I have decided to put God in my lyrics
Sometimes I’ll offer you a glimpse of what’s going on in my mind
I know that this poetry I am writing is the masterpiece God designed
Sometimes I get discouraged and other times I times I feel like I can’t write
Reason being because I don’t want others to feel sorry for me,
If you need to stand up to get a better view inside my life, then what you doin’ sittin’
I tend to not like crowds but I want to share my poems with the masses
Stand back or these words I spit may hit you
The heart is tender, but my mind is full of emotions
What a quandary, I find myself in just my words and my world and I
My room is where sometimes I write words, but my pillow is soaked with tears
For me, writing makes me come to life, but sometimes I want to lock it up
It feels like somedays are better than others, we all have ups and downs
If I’m not feelin’ it, you aren’t seein’ it
If you want a glimpse of what’s going on inside my jungle
I suggest you bring an ear to listen and don’t forget to bring a machete
My thoughts like brush, but they sometimes get in the way of light
If you don’t understand what I am sayin’ then please move on cuz I ain’t playing
A real life passion of mine is to tell a version of my story, but to bring the world hope
God has blessed me, and even when I get down and I feel like I don’t deserve to write
I try to fight, but my God never asks me to write something I don’t believe in
Look up at Calvary, and you will find forgiveness for all your sins
