Only Love

This is no fairytale
No roses or veil
No one will sing
There is no ring
There will only be a memory
A line in a happy story
I will love you for eternity
I respect your simplicity
I admire your sincerity
There will be no questions
I gladly accept your intentions
I will proudly bear your name
For we are one in the same.

Delilah

She takes what she wants
Gives you what you get
With her smile and charm
You will take her arm
She glitters like gold
But bears no soul
Her love has no connections
She is the mother of deception

Her poison is sweet
You are swept of your feet
No woman can compare
She has a stylish snare
You are under control
Her intentions are now bold


This is no longer a fight
Easily given after many nights
Your heart is tangled
Your thoughts are strangled
Wild, you are now tame
As Delilah openly conceals her aim!

Lady of the Night

My lips are red
My conscience is dead
My face is painted
Love`s most hated
High maintenance low self confidence
My body bears the evidence
I am a foe to most women I know

Walking proud, shameless shroud
Reality is dim, my chances slim
It's dark and its cold
The scene is old
I am the lady of the night,
I will be alright!

BLACK PEARL

You should have no cares in this world
Instead you are tricked out of your wealth
Your lineage is old, it cannot be sold
Black Pearl your beauty is time
Everywhere I see you your royalty shines
Children sit at your feet, you are so divine

Black Pearl you still kept your smile
Although its a struggle you survive
Black Pearl it will never be right
Always say a prayer at night
For the Lord is your Shepherd your only light!

Son of Slavery

Born of a woman planted by a man
I know not who brought me to this land
I roam I die I I know history is a lie
My forefathers were brave even though they were enslaved

New language new rules, I accepted like a fool
How will I cope? My generation has no hope
Moving around from place to place
Time is the master of my faith
Born of a woman planted by a man
Where do I belong?

My arms are strong my heart is weak
I know you know that spells defeat
Trying and trying to be my best
Am I the only one on this quest?
My stress is black my shackles are white
But still I fight the fight

Traps are set for me similar to the ones of slavery
But now I can't see them physically
The system was designed without me in mind
They set poverty and crime like whips to my behind
Born of a woman planted by a man
I have no identity, a black man is what I am

Winner

Blind pioneers, illiterate millionaires
Life is what you make it
Don't stand in fear
Success is very near!
Believe in yourself
When others wouldn't dare
The world waits for you
To make your dreams true
Stand firm on your feet
Accept no defeat
Make patience your friend
You will be the winner in the end!
