You Missed Out

I don’t pretend to bring a lot to the table
As far as material things
But I can bring love, caring
And nurturing tendencies 
You could benefit from a love that’s just like mine 
A little psyche stroke for you
Would do you some good, my dear
But I’m not something you want

I won’t press the issue
You’ve made your choice
Your silence speaks words
We’re done

You missed out 
On me

I’m wishing you peace, love, and happiness and more
May you find whatever you need 
Even without me, okay?
Find yourself as you are lost
Maybe I should run away from the damaged ones 
As they seem to be all I date 
Hashtag danger zone, back up
This one is no good for you

Can you pass the tissue
You’ve made your choice 
Your silence speaks words
I’m done 

You missed out
On me

My bad choices in guys like you
Damaged and beyond repair
So much wasted time....
That I can’t reclaim...
I’m done 

You missed out

On me

The Future

Here or now
Now or later 
Are you ready for the next generation to take over 
Love and peace
Or some bullshit
Are you ready for the next generation to take over

We are the people 
A system of change 
Let our voices be heard 

We aren’t generation x
They had their chance
Let the millennials rise. 

Love and system intertwine
Let the future hope realize 
They have the hope to recognize. 

The future

Truth and lies 
Love and pain
So are you ready to admit defeat in this life 
Give and take
Is it to late 
So are you ready to admit defeat in this life 

We are full of love
Ready to arrange 
The next stage of our lives 

We aren’t Generation Y 
They had their chance
Let the millennials rise. 

The future

Love and system intertwine
Let the future hope realize 
They have the hope to recognize. 

We won’t be ignored 
Or forsaken
We will be the future. 

We aren’t generation me
They had their chance
Let the millennials rise 

Love and system intertwine
Let the future hope realize 
They have the hope to recognize.

The future 





I Rise...

A twist of fate
A change of heart
Finds me here now
I’m conflicted. 
A past mistake
And a new start
Finds me here now
I’m rejected 

We’re all just trying to figure it out
And how the universe places us
A bunch of pawns at the mercy
Of a guarded royalty

Yet I keep my head up
My sights set high
I won’t allow myself
To be at the bottom

I rise...
Higher...
I rise!

Where is the lie
It’s the truth that
Finds you here now
Just honestly
Don’t be so sly
Say what you lack
Finds you here now
It’s good for me 

It’s good to see what it’s all about 
Don’t let your past make you any less
Despite the flaws I can still see 
Potential in you and me

I refuse to give up
My hopes are high
All I have is myself
I’ll rise from the bottom 

I rise...
Higher...
I rise!

Don’t give up now
Know that the past
Finds us here now
And that’s okay

Love/Truth

The idea of love is toxic
Gives you hope and dreams 
Then blows when it’s not it 
Makes you believe that it could last
Nothing’s what it seams 
Still haunted by the past

Love...
A fairy tale
An illusion 

Just let it go
Just let me go
It gives me nothing to hope for
Just give it up
I’m done, enough
It gives me nothing to hope for

Yet it still want to be hopeful 
Despite hopes wasted
Here I am resentful
I’m still young I tell myself 
I’ve not regretted 
The truth that I’ve left

Truth...
A fairy tale
An illusion 

Just let it go
Just let me go
It gives me nothing to hope for
Just give it up
I’m done, enough
It gives me nothing to hope for

Love and truth
What do you know of it
Just enough 
Just enough to be dangerous. 





Before I Die

I’ve always been good at stringing words together 
But words are silly things
What do they mean?
They could direct a symphony 
Of harmony
But words are silly things

Truth and lies
Words are both
And neither
It depends on the man

When will it all make sense 
Not right now, maybe never
Hopefully before I die

I’ve always been good at listening to another 
But not at reacting 
What could I do?
I’m just one man against the world
I could be bold
But not at reacting

Lies and truth
Words are either 
And neither
It depends on the man

When will it all make sense 
Not right now, maybe never
Hopefully before I die

Hopefully...
I find my truth
Whatever it is
The difference 
In the truth 
And a lie
Hopefully... I find it someday. 

When will it all make sense 
Not right now, maybe never
Hopefully before I die

Despite The Chaos

Here I stand bitter and conflicted
Angry at everything for no reason
Ready to take on the world
I don’t know why I’m fighting anymore 

Breathe
Release
Find peace
Center and ground me

Despite the chaos of the world
The pain and regret
Find a truth and hold on to it

I’m at the alter of truth
Hoping to find clarity
In my life, is this right?

I’m tired of being rejected 
All of my feelings guilty of treason 
Regrets of the  truths untold 
Still hoping that there is something in store 

Pause
What cause
Who’s loss
Hope in it I toss

Despite the chaos of the world
The pain and regret
Find a truth and hold on to it

I’m at the alter of truth
Hoping to find clarity
In my life, is this right?

Glee
Happy
I see
That I can find peace

Despite the chaos of the world
The pain and regret
Find a truth and hold on to it

I’m at the alter of truth
Hoping to find clarity
In my life, is this right?








Check

Maybe the problem isn’t me
It’s you, check
I gave it everything did you ?
Say no?  Check
You said that you’ve friend zoned before
You did, check
At your age now maybe it’s you 
Judged you, check. 

You could have had it all or nothing 
I was willing to invest
But you faded away
Like a rat running from the rain 

I kept beating at your door
Until you turned the light off
Okay, goodbye, I’ll walk away 

So I saw the signs weeks ago
You’re out, check
Are you a coward just to say
I’m out, check
Im not a fool despite of you 
I’m here, check
So how dare you not respect me 
You’re done, check 

I don’t do passive and with interest 
I don’t deal with dismissive 
Why are you still here now 
Stringing me along for a hope 

I kept beating at your door
Until you turned the light off
Okay, goodbye, I’ll walk away

Goodbye, check
Dumb ass, check
A fool, check
Wasted, check
Check off, say goodbye 

I kept beating at your door
Until you turned the light off
Okay, goodbye, I’ll walk away

Goodbye, check
So long, check 

Ignored, check...
