When my
heart mind
body
rhyme
fail
Bones turn
brittle
Old
Frail
Friends bail
Can’t mourn mercy no more
Judge me by my soul

Father, Son, Holy Ghost
Please forgive I
for sinning daily
‘gainst The Most
neva deny me
in the belly of the beast
though I forsake you
and lie through my teeth
Grief
Takin hold
and my soul
wants to breathe easy
this confession
won't come
though I’ll press through it
Humbly
till my battle is
100 loads of dirty laundry
aired out in the sun
aired out in the sun
right

I got a closet full of
Shoes and skeletons
I’ve been collecting since 6
I glimpsed my first dick
Kissed a girl at naptime
Scratched my first itch
Realized that words rhyme
Worlds been spinning ever since
Got me feelin motion sick now
Cast it all to the sea
Message in a bottle
Ocean listen to me
i got a closet full of bare bones
a trunk full of seeds
May all my secrets
hit home
and plant at least one tree
Please
But...

When my
heart mind
body
rhyme
fail
Bones turn
brittle
Old
Frail
Friends bail
Can’t mourn mercy no more
Judge me by my soul

Sometimes
My walk
be as crooked
as my mind
I curse like a sailor
but i don’t eat swine
I live a natural life
I smoke squares and kind
I went to school to write
Dropped out to rhyme
So I give it all I got
And what I’m not
Won't make me shutter
I’m at the mountain top
And about to bungee ova
Lookin’ for a thrill
Playin’ chicken in my nova
80 on the highway
Bumpin Hova in the fast lane
Cramps got me goin insane
I wanna
Rip out my ovaries
And cry in the rain
They say it’s sunny outside
the people callin my name
But I’m havin’ all these flashbacks
They’re all the same
I held my dad while he died
Burned my brain
Perm to scalp
Lord Have Mercy
Miss you, Willie James
and the pain won’t stop
The block stays hot
and if I don’t get shot
I’ll still die like my pops
Yo

When my
heart mind
body
rhyme
fail
Bones turn
brittle
Old
Frail
Friends bail
Can’t mourn mercy no more
Judge me by my soul
