Bits n Pieces II (10.08)

Being me’s like standing in front of the speakers,

rocking brand new sneakers.
But just for tonight.

So I’m deaf but I’m still fresh.

Gripping life with all my might cuz it’s all that I got left.
All you gotta do is pull one plug and the systems in shambles,

good God if they now knew the direction my mind travels,

I’d still be an outkast for life.
In the past I’ve been low down, but it’s only prepared me for flight,

my light has never shined this bright.

I woke up, laced up and I’m ready to fight.

Insanity’s now my bass line, I’m unfamiliar with such heights.

Sprinkle on some glitter, do I act like a lady now?

I doubt it, I clown. Sit down, you only get half a crown.

In love with the music, no man to hold me back.

Friends and family surround me and I’m never looking back.

These drums are like my smack.
Got a masters in art and a bachelors in grammar,

Still introvert, still genius, still with myself enamored.

Over tired, under paid, over worked and under laid,

it’s all good I made the grade, I’m so happy that I stayed.
This is just one of those nights, my minds filled with percussions,

so thank you for your rapt attention to my one sided discussion.
GOODNIGHT
