So you wanna be a rock superstar
And live large, a big house, five cars, you're in charge
Comin' up in the world, don't trust no fiat
Gotta look over your ledger constantly
I am grateful I have money.

A poem I wrote last summer.
What is a Goat?
Does it swim under water
Or stay up & float?
Does it know all your lies
Your truths
& all you don't know you hide?
Is it a pristine state of mind?
Or a prisoner dilemma
locked up in time?
Does it birth out a rhyme
Or murder a hood
full of chickens & swine?
Is it anxious or excited?
Imbalanced or ignited?
Does it wake up & choose love
Or is it a Great Indecider?
Is it here with us now
Or was it you in the mall?
Did it grab on your balls
When you were so small?
Does it remember it vivid
Or is it too timid?
Is it hunchback invalid
Or tall like an Enid?
Does it not make a sound
Or scream to be found?
If you carry it around
Does it weigh you the fuck down?
If you catch a look see
Does it give you a wink?
As you stop to think
All the swirly whirly ways
It sits there in the sink?
Intense & so rich
Yet not quite a stink?
Don't ask me about it
I barely woke up!
You think I found it?
I call it dumb luck
I begged to taste it
Yet always got stuck
On torn page 23
From my dad's recipe
It said "give a fuck"
... "about p"
About P what?
What the fucking fuck fuck?
About P as in pussy?
I already do easily
This shit doesn't make sense G!
There's something I'm missing
I just can't see
I don't need it perfect
I just want it completely
I start sniffing the air
I feel it coming to me
As still as the moon
& dark as the Erdtree
Of course it's P for People
I understand so clearly
Like when I said Let Him Cook
But you thought that I mistook
Failure for doubt
Big ego for clout
Mass warfare for bout
1 lil seed for sprout
Go within when without
Hash a sum for an out
Check a tag for a route
When you're lost
In spicy sauce
Then you'll have a good idea
What it means to be a boss
So watch this king for a fall
I always brush when I floss
I never eat when I get full
I always share to pay the cost
& I never go look down
On those not livin in a house
So while you just sit there & argue
About who should not wear a blouse
I just keep enjoying my life
As a Goat, not a mouse

I wrote my own bars to this legendary track by Kendrick Lamar. 1 of my first completed raps, so it has a special place in my timeline.
[They Not Like Us]
_
You not like me (x3)
No
_(x3)
You not like me (x3)
Wait
Where all my haters go?
I thought I wasn't shit
& I move too slow?
You didn't see me work 20 years on my soul
You didn't see me rise up trauma like a roll
You didn't see me dance round ones on the flo
Like a fat ass stripper on a wet ass pole
You thought I'm playin
When I said I'll be back
You said it's a lie
He's a 1 hit act
I was born underground
I don't need yo ack
Did it all in the dark
Don't tell me bout lack
Walk miles from school
With the heavy backpack
No shoes on my feet
& rain on my back
Hopin dad shows up
sees the notie in my Slack
The rats in my closet
Going clack clack clack clack
Hooptie mo hood
Than a 7-9 lac
Door don't close
AC don't crack
Looked down on my nuts
There's none in my sac
1 fit for my clothes
I never seen a rack
& Still I keep walkin
Even if I drop dead
Cuz yOu nOt liKE mEE
Even fuckin in the bed
|(Chorus Agh)
Ahhh, now look & see
The bottom of the pit:
So foggy mystery
Now look even harder:
Your reflection & me
You see that swirly smoke
That's an old memory
When I didn't have shit
For a quarter century
Yea you really dug in
All the shame & guilty
A long time it stayed
As my only identy
Had to leap in the quantum
To change reality
So now tables turned
& the shoes don't fit
What the fuck that make you?
Lil dumb bitch
ah huh yup yup still got my shine
ah huh yup yup still got my shine
(Bridge)
Now you can write a thank you note
& You can save that lil quote
At the bottom of your pocket
Or the middle of your tote
& You can memorize it rote
& You can add a cute emote
I never did learn how to float
& never ever gonna choke
& If you ever see me drownin
You can go rescue the boat
Cuz I can live under the water
like spongebob digs a moat
Cuz you
You
You Fucking You
|(Chorus Bitch)

I wrote my own verse & hook to this hilarious banger by Lil Dicky. See if you can spot the truths/lies. 😎
[Save Dat Money]
_
2. truths. 1. lie.
2. truths. 1. lie.
2. truths. 1. lie.
hey hey hey hey

I gotta pay for sex cuz my dick too small
I only last 2 minutes & I'm under 6 foot tall
I was born with gold spoon
But also silver paddle
I go hard in the trunk
But my sub never rattle
Its only made of paper & a lil bit of glue
I only got the Js cuz I was tryna be coo
You think you really know me?
This my outer igloo
But my insides so warm
Like a fresh side of poo
I never pay my debts
Cuz I'm a piece of shit too
I tried to finish college
But I fell asleep in school
I wanted to be a singer
But I sound like
Suffocating in a flue
Yeah, I do
I only got tree fiddy
& a lil sat of Bitcoin
If you see me in the street
You can holler where's your shitcoin?
If you know me from the past
You might say I moved up fast
But it's only cuz I used
A bit of cream to make it LaaaSt
R O E L that's my name spell
Always been a big squeal
Never been to hell
From heaven I fell
Big forehead can't you tell
Never once tried to sell
Might have been a big fail
If I karaoke
I just do my own material
Let me get in my zone
Like clearance retail
We have rizz at home
A myth I'ma disspell
But if you get preggers
I'ma buy Plan B pill
|(Chorus)

I wrote my own verse & hook to this classic by Immortal Technique. This time, it's about Bitcoin.
[Caught In a Hustle]
This is the way
This is the way
They say the odds of btc as money is impossible
Like the upcoming everything bubble is laughable
& we don't need rescuing, addict tweakin fentanyl
But I never lose focus, my HODL is impeccable
The price is volatile, if misunderstand education
This re-shapes the whole world
A total transformation
& nobody is raped in economic deal striations
Immutable timechain, fair situation
Like your inner child voice, whispering for your path
Realignment regardless, what you did in your past
So now you're tired of science, & you wanna talk math
How bout 21 mill, & not a sat more than that
It's funny how with your friends, you'll be schemin for cash
But never thought about deflation, in a wallet that lasts
The Matrix War isn't over, but this New Earth Order
Nakamoto makin money in cyber snowball boulders
I would like to raise my wealth to grow super saiyan soldier
& everyone can decide how inheritance transfers over
So I work hard to trade my lil fiat for a bit
Like El Salvador buyin the discount on every dip
They said it'll reset to shit, just keep on watchin it
But they never read the code, in block 0 Genesis
I say your fiat's a snake, & it squeezes the soul
Hyper-inflating every day, like a dragon dildo
So if I should ever fall
& get caught in some trouble
Let em know that I tried
To bring hope to the struggle
From demorats to
Deplorables lost in their bubble
Zap sats in the hood
& let's wormhole a tunnel
Learn your 12 & remember
They can never break in
Your mind is resilient
Like the freedom that's within
Honey badger once told me
If you don't save yourself
How are you supposed to
Invest, in anyone else?

I wrote my own verses & hook to this masterpiece by Jadakiss & Nas:
[What If]
What if the weed don't work?
What if the drank don't purp?
What if the smoke don't smack
Like the hash in the yurt?
What if you starin at your guts
Cuz your mind go berserk?
Did you really go crazy
Cuz you lost your self-worth?
What if you thought about killin
Cuz they didnt see the hurt?
What if you're 1 act away
From puttin em all in the dirt?
What if you feed the bad wolf
& starve the good kid squirt?
What if you make a choice now
...To pay attention, short skirt?
_
What if you never stop to smell
All the flowers that bloom
What if you never took a risk
Cuz you addicted to doom
What if you never blessed us
Cuz you sleepin in your room
What if you show off all the gifts
Like the bride & groom
_(x2)
What if the Universe
Was waitin on you to make a move
What if your Ancestors love you
Even if you never prove
What if you never live aligned
Like the shoes in my groove
What if you never get co-signed
Cuz you stuck in your rules
What if you never seen your woman
Shine in all her glow
What if you never heard your man
Say I love you once mo
What if you never leave your fam
& Not say it's time to go
What if you ... remember grace
As you walk out the do
|(Chorus)
Mother's Day. Father's Day.
There's also Grandparents Day.
There is a Children's Day, but ironically, we don't really celebrate that here.
Even though it's kids that need so much love to grow up healthy.
Thank you to my inner child ❤️ I love you
