Tell me What good is Potential if you never reach it fully Ran out of attention when my Elders tried to school me Made a Fool of Me Lost Focus fucking with the Foolery  Now I'm Focused on my Future Feel it pulling me Taking full advantage of this crooked system Study the mechanics of the Pully Mechanism  To assist me with the Heavy Lifting Got to play the cards the Dealers given In a way that even if you lose a hand your grinning Cuz you know that In the end, you end up winning The secret is Don't ever let um see you sweat And never think of quitting The Code Word Rest Stop Rest Room (What That Mean?)  NEVER TAKE NO SHIT SITTING Stepping I a Vice City Cypher You best not spit a written The circles Lit Cuz you gettin lit up by some hitters who feel that shits as forbidden as spitting a bar that's bitten Just taking out the Trash Good Writtens I'm just trying to raise the bar with Good Writtens And DJ Proof always comes with Good Rhythms Thus why I'm rocking with him 8ch and Proof a Team Had a Crazy Dream that I built a rocket with him People needed a means of escape  So we schemed on this tape To transport them off this rock If they Copp a listen This is Motivation Music when you on a mission to change your circumstances  when you haven't got a pot to piss in I'm a funnel of the blessing that my God has given  Generous with rhetoric , got a lot to give um But what good is dropping lava if you ain't dropping wisdom Just a bullet aimed at leaving some of your noggin missing The bars they spitting are Identical to the ones in prison  Meant to imprison inner-city citizens In this system Instead of committing that sin of attrition I'm a Jeweler committed to fixing some gems that make your vision glisten Mann, I aint pushing no pipe dreams  Or filling the pipes of feens to improve my living conditions These are practical lessons I'm spittin meant to improve your Quality of Living  Good Writtens

The Bus pulls up  Doors at the front open up like a Mouth  And the Mechanical Dragon swallows me up Plastic Metro pass is swiped Hear the bell as the 2 quarters plus 2 bucks automatically deduct Move pass the passengers seated in front Them seats by the window around the middle are the ones that I want It's all about Location when you riding public transportation The one by the exit  That's some prime real estate fam The view is great and you can catch yourself a nap  Lay your cap on the metal plate But today a Pro is fully awaken My Motorola can't take in All the notes that I'm taking Feel it vibrating inside of my palm as my thumbs type at a rate that sound barrier-breaking  Training while I'm traveling towards the train station On route to promote the Art I'm trying to make my occupation   The irony, the wordplay, the cadence  So delicious if you listen you could taste them I shall not waste them  Tattoo them in ink never erase them Riders without a seat giving standing ovations  They got their hands raised High  Holding on to every bar I write for dear life At Least when Proofs Beats are in my ears That's what it feels like All around me all I see are examples of real life Far from easy  Hardworking Elder hardly eating  A single mom who just pawned her TV Cuz her kids don't need Sesame Street teaching them reading As much as they need to pay the rent and somethin to feed them See them staring out the window  Like the looking for meaning Answers to questions  A little something to believe in Or At least a logical reason Why the quality of neighborhoods decreasing the closer they get to their stop for the evening I stand and give the spot where I'm seated to a biejita, someone's Abuelita Who's been working all Weekend Although I may not understand the language she's speaking when she's says merci I know what she means and that asuat she means it MetroRail Station Approaching I ring the Bell and lean forward like M.J.

How do I begin this letter elegantly? Dearest Lissette, Angel sent from Heaven to me When I reflect upon how far we've come I cannot deny If you hadn't stepped Into my life This man would have died To say I could've made it on my own's just masculine pride Half-truth like a Vatican Lie The fact is I hardly survived X Wife kicked me out H was Homeless Waking up without my kids to kiss good morning left me soulless Physically and spiritually So Sick Bad Habits Left Me Broke and Psychologically Broken Thought I knew it all  I was Ignorant with No Bliss The image of my life all out of Focus  That's the condition that you found me in  When others turned around on him The King insides what you bought out of him Head held high in front of everyone who doubted him He's working hard to make sure that your proud of him Now How do I write this letter reverently Dearest Edita the Mother heaven Destined for me Blessed Vessel that Carried Me Inside Her The Nutrient, Protection, Affection, and Constant Direction Provider You shared all you had I took greedily A Parasite always hungry for more than you were feeding me Forgive me for the time I stole from your purse never needing it The countless Nights of Sleeplessness When I was on the streets a mess Your mental health suffered from how deep you stress You were under observation  I was underage - Oblivious They released you with a script You took with beers you would sip The combination formed an addiction that was serious Your Battle with chemical dependency was furious It's a Miracle you're hear with us  And through it all you never doubted me I want you to know I'm proud of you  Working hard to make you proud of Me How do I end this letter adequately When words cannot express Phrases fall short of satisfactory To describe how you've transformed my life Magically  All rise and bow the knee to her Majesty  Princess Milandra Monet The first of her name Cherubin sent from Heaven As an agent of Change People look at me strange when I claim  That when she cries it rains She Smiles it's Blue Skies Not a cloud remains Sound of her voice can make a wild beast tamed Even the Sun hides it's face when she's ashamed Father's of Daughters understand what I'm Saying Wanta protect your from Pain But it's Necessary To make you tougher cuz the world out there is Very Scary Life ain't no fairy tale it's Fair Rarely Just remember even the darkest night is Temporary I know you got reasons for doubting me My pride and joy, I live my life in a way that makes you proud of me.
