"You cant keep a good man down"


bounce bounce,
goes the ball on the floor,
knock knock,
there someone knocking on the door.
i open up,
and whut do i see,
a reflection of somebody,
is that me?
a criminal individual,
with no sense of life,
walking around his neighborhood,
looking 4 a fight.
a knife in his hand,
many weapons he stole,
people scared of him,
cuz their souls he owned.
i seen the devil,
in the blink of an eye,
a complexion reflection,
with no sense of light.
ready to die,
for the streets as his love,
no mercy at his feet,
nor at his gun.


~thats what he seen,i guess the knock was an awakening cuz this is how it is now.~


bounce bounce,
the ball hits the ground,
people walk around,
happy and proud.
a sense of light,
is all that there is,
god has blessed his life,
with her delicate kiss.
knives are down,
he owns no more guns,
his feets on the clouds,
an endless trans of love.
below he could see,
all that she changed,
the sun after the rain,
blossoms came his way.
each with her affection,
how he knew they were true,
all i could say,
is she made him brand new.
