i tried and tried to hide inside what i felt for years

i cried while hiding inside this shell for years

impatient tho...so unlike the tortoise i cudnt move slow IM SORRY

mind like a car i cant afford to be racing...FERRARI!!!!



not a rapper or an actor...my demeanor is real

i react to reality or reactions...that's not weird like teal

its just outta the ordinary...like a man showing how he feel

i want u here if not just near cuz now idk how to deal


imma poet so on this mic i aint known for my rippin

high only offa life wit u so not known for my tippin

but now its like the law to tip so i aint known for my flippin

but get money and give advice...so like Ripken...now known for my hittin



grippin my loved ones and suttin thas in pocket for protection

but I'll still trade places to meet my deathbed to show my affection

I'll let it pierce my heart cuz love keeps it in one piece

so now u'll know what i lived and died for when im deceased
