When I'm lost to the struggles of life , my music shall carry my legacy
Poetry come to life through Backpacker Hip-Hop
Lyrics
It's hard when you're lost in the struggle
To see the light in the dark at the end of the tunnel
And then your trouble seems to rise to a new level
Your forever dancing with the devil
Tango and tip-toe through the tupips in the meadow
Until the break of dawn cracks the darkened sky
And the eagles cry from the mountain side
The world is a puddle of dry sorrow and pain
Dreams that speak through scribbled pen scripts that litter my page
As the wind sweeps the dust underneath the valley rug
The darkness slumbers shortly
Just to rise and see
That it's time is free
No man can stand to be both blind and to see
To rhyme and bleed
Is to hide behind a curtain of dying leaves that lines the trees
Waiting for the day when
The hatred and the judgment to the mic that we hold
Will die and grow old
Let us be free
You see I have someone in my life
She brings me joy
Brings me smiles
Brings me to a place where life is worthwhile
Opens up the door to better ways and better days
Helps me to grow poetically , to elevate
And lemme say without the aid
Without the days
When she's with me safe
In my arms without a care
To worry her face
Together we generate an aura that resonates
Through the darkest shadows that the devil can throw me way
So everyday I can rest assure that she's my getaway
A get-out-jail ticket when skies are gray
She knows me truly and for that to her my soul I designate
She's my fortress none can penetrate
To seperate would be pain without limits
So to finish , I'd like to look back
And say to my critics...
You can take me
You can break me
You can shatter my body
But it's the music that makes me
I will always live on
