I found a home to share my gift and just release
Light my spliff
And then it's peace
As my thoughts flow like semen to produce the egg
On this board I'm true in living
Ya never copping the bootleg
Versions of my word conversion
As I speak of every day things
As I sit back and decipher my existence
Never satisfied with what it brings
Always striving for the extra
Always searching for the truth
Have been on this mission for as long as I can remember
Since the days I was a youth
People told me
It's your world
And you have to make a change
You have to be the one to shine
And tell the world your name
So I've been shouting, singing, writing,
Manifesting with all my might
It has not all paid off as yet
But I'm the star that shines tonight
Thanks for listening, loving, caring,
In one of my truest and strongest gifts
In the words of Jigga Man
It ain't' where you from
IT'S WHO U WIT!

Thanks for allowing me to share a little of myself with you. I appreciate all of the feedback. It's definitely a beautiful thing.

One.




Love is Life and through Life I seek enternal Love! If for nothing else than to know me...you will love what you begin to know...Hold on to that

Everyone repeat this out loud 5x.

I'm not joking.

That's correct right there.

What's the payoff for you? Could you explain more what that line means to you? What would you feel the ultimate pay off would be?

Peace!!!

Finally succeeding at what I love to do...making a career out of writing. I believe it is the truest way to reach any soul...touch any life...and grow through your own expressive words...that's the ultimate pay off for me...to make a living doing what I love to do...

Thanks for asking and allowing me the opportunity to share why I love this gift so much! One.
