My Life Created

Look at my life look at my place look at my face
I am what I am but I am different from the rest I have bigger lips
I have bigger feet and bigger hands
Don’t get me wrong I am also stronger than the rest
An athlete born naked and I just keep getting better 
I always wanted to be at least six foot tall
But I am not quite there though I can shoot the hoops with my brothers
And they wonder where these feet give me defeat
You know my mom and dad divorced when I was only two
Now my mom has addictions that make her unglued
My dad is military tough and so he expects me the same
See I am what I am my life created not to be hated
Not to be judged or disrespected not to be unheard or shut out
For I am rapper a poet a performer 
A person telling a story with a reason and no ryhme just
Telling about time and the world in its crime 
Hoping someone will listen be a person of peace unlike hate
For we have all been created in birth the same

I have to tell you that none of the poems have really been about me
They are only thoughts ideas and energy of what I know of people and the world around me
Granite part of me is there in these words but mostly I am referring to others that I reach out to and are very much like me
It is crazy how these thought and words just pour out of me like water out of a pitcher lol
