From the womb to the tomb and all that falls in the middle
Looking for the answers to what one would call a riddle
A little space of my own that I could occupy
Because I’m all full grown
Let the days go by like a talking heads song
Me and my girl fight, yeah she says I’m headstrong
And I’m dead wrong, like Marshall and Christopher
She wants my time more than anything I can give to her
I’m not being mean, I’m just being me
I’m trying to learn to slow down and really see the scenes
Instead of trying to skip through the pictures
Live it, not just sift through a scripture
This is for the oxygen that’s feeding my lungs
And the feeling that I feel when I be in the sun
And now I keep it hip-hop until my conscious stops
Cause if you look at my life, that’s how I got to the top

L - is for the life that your life that you’re living
Not what you’re missing but the love that you’re giving
I - love being alive
And that’s why I strive to survive
F - Life is journey
Enjoy the process and write your own stories
E - Everyone is free
To be what they were meant to be

When I write about life sometimes I think twice and
Try to be concise with what I’m writing
Because young minds are listening
And they’re seeking direction from these stars like a bedouin
Isolated like a desert when
We need an oasis some place that we can settle in
Instead we get distracted by illusions
And go off course like a race horse that’s losing
Take a walk in my shoes then
You can criticize about the path that I chose when
These roads ain’t the same
Cause mine ain’t been paved I had to make my own way and
I ain’t never stayed in my lane man
I’m a player and a coach I wrote the game plan
With little regrets
Right now I’m on the bench man but check it I got next

Fly away with the wings of thought
And my thoughts never gave me through the naughts
Take a journey out to the lands of far
Leave the rest behind and break some hearts
New journeys start when old friends separates
That’s when our word destiny reallocates
Here’s new inspiration so indigenous
And new relationships were established
Millions of travelers, on my way
But none of us here are ever meant to stay
We greet each other then snapshots the side way
Then wave um goodbye and watch their back fade away
Now my bag is fully packed
With memories of the past and
I reset my sail and maybe next February
I’ll be back my beloved L
