Seems everything i do just leads me to darkness
Wtf am i to do to fkin stop this?
I keep running cuz there no point for me to be walkin
Stepin up to the plate, takin a swing at life
This is ma second chance don't want it to be ma strike
Ima hit home runs for da rest of ma life
Till the day comes, and i'll see the light
People out there thinkin thier lives are bad
Other humans in the world where everyday is sad
No food and water, living life on the chance
Jus be happy for what you have
Family, friends is all we need
*** material things
like that has no true meaning
I just want people to be understanding
People look at what they have
And thats what other people dream to have
You dont take advantage
Cuz we think life isnt a challenge
Asumming we could get by just livin like a savage
Ive made changes in my life, cuz ive had these thoughts
I do what i love, go to school for it, and give a shot
So make changes in your live if needed
We only live it one and can't never repeat it

OTHER POEMS WRITTEN BY richardlopez559
What Happens After This?Live your life like you are dancing in the rain and nobody is watching. Skip the rumors like your heart skips a beat. Fall in love and just let it catch you. Because at the end of the day, life will move on with or without you.  |
And so I see it, the ways of the World.On the day that I Die, I see the world. On the day that I'm Born, I see the world. On the day that I'm Loved, I see the world. On the day when I Live, I see the world. On the day that I Love, I see the world. On the day that I Suffer, I see the world. On the day that I Believe, I see the world. On the day that's Dark, I see the world. On the day that is Bright, I see the world. Then a day comes, where my eyes close. I see a world, on the day that I Die I see a world, on the day that I'm Born. I see a world, on the day I was Loved. I see a world, on the day that I Lived. I see a world, on the day that I Love. I see a world, on the day that I Suffer. I see a world, on the day that I Believe. I see a world, on the day that's Dark. I see a world, on the day that's Bright. And so I see, what needs to be seen. To live once again, in a world that I've seen. |
"Part of the Problem"I live in a world where im part of the problem. Thoughts in my head but nobody to solve them. Lets see so where do I start? I'm sitting behind a computer, just typing down my thoughts Behind a gun, there a human shooting another human. FOR WHAT!?!?!??!! FOR WHAT?!?!?! It feels like there's nothing I can do! I'm trapped in a box and not a single clue Be honest with yourself for just one second If you got off your computer and tried to change the world... Could you do it? By yourself? With no one to help? To the People of the world...we are nothing but rats They feed us poison so we could die slowly.... I'm part of the problem that with to be a part of the solution....

Free Mind, Bird Cage. The Homeless Flower.Walk outside, take a glance at the flowers What do they think? Is it the final hour? I hope for the hopeless and they never become homless. Asking for money outside of the usual liquor store. I spare some change that sitting in my back pocket. The Flower and the homeless can you make that comparison? I type what on my mind, it flows free like a banana growing from an apple tree. Free Mind, Bird Cage. Freedom isnt free if you have to pay to live.
Hoped you all enjoyed! Peace, Love, Thank You! |
Loss Of Respect for the Spoken and Written Words.Loss of respect for the spoken word So motivational and now speaks so little Now, people worry about what other people think But do you blink to let tears flow to your cheeks? Or is it just another act to cover up a real opinion? Do you wanna see flashing lights? Or broken light bulbs in your mirror? One that signifies a quality life with no real pride Or the other that defines one hardships and struggles that molds reality? Ask yourself a question... "Am I writing to get attention? Or to make a Point?" "Writing to make a change in history? To teach the next generation?" Loss of respect for the written word.... Sadly, real poetry is left unheard.

If I Had Every Penny In The WorldSo much autotune, so little rhyme step into a world, without a dime Wish i found a penny, every penny in the world will i have enough money, so i could feed the poor? If i had every penny, will it open my doors? Will it bring me happiness, or will people cry more? Can I Bring WORLD PEACE Where everyone can eat and go to sleep and night under the white moonlight? If I had every penny, can i still be friendly? Or would it change my character? If I had every penny...... Every penny in the World....... |
Flower Treat Me like a criminal, put me into jail And then go rape you girl Cuz we aint worth Just another dollar, dead people for war And if we make it alive, we get forgotten the next day Guess what im trying to js... |
People in the WorldThere people in this world that i should of met But probably will never meet People in the world that cant talk, but say alot when they speak People in the world that never get see,but truely know how beautiful this life really can be How i stare at the stars, but they staring at me I hear death calling, no worries i got caller ID Like method man, there is a method and people in the world that on meth they OD They say the apple dont fall far from the tree You see? But the seed is closer, when closer to me There are people in the world that wanna be them But you can't be yourself, that why im writing this poem

Deal With the DevilDeals with the devil, could it be a blessing for some? Trying to make a better life by making cheap music Instead, he watches his parents come from work each day drunk. He's an only child, not popular in school, and had bad grades All he wanted was success, took it to the extream one day. Just to prove it, he knocked at hells door, he just wanted help He had no skill on the mic, plus no job, so that meant he was poor Nobody understood how this character felt He asked around, and the devil made an appearance himself Filled this persons empty head with spotlights and roaring crowds at concert shows Even a half hour special on how came up selling dope and blow and helped a small town develope and grow He thought that was dope, he signed the deal.... All he really need...was support and Hope.

Stuck in the Silenceeh-hem I got something to say...will you take a listen Imagine my voice and listen to this image im trying to send so you gain some knowledge People dont know this but they keeping you hostage eventually, no jobs, no money wich means you cant pay your morgage youll live in these dirty streets and for a couple bucks ill be stuck as the one cleaning up As far as these politicians...nothing but repititions, year after year, empty promises to take us out this fear And what do we do? Nothing Vote for a group of people that say they promise to vote for the president But if they decide not to and you only vote once? aint that something They bring in the puppet and we'll have to suck up and continue live until theres that person that says "SHUT THE *** UP" and then we do what? we try to bring peace by them means of violence apparently thats the the way to do thing... |
