Keep Them Barred

Don't accept fresh trouble not yours,
To endure...
Keep it barred.
From your life,
Don't have it start.

Don't accept fresh trouble not yours,
To endure...
Keep it barred.
From your life,
Don't have it start.

People creeping out of cracks,
With crap to attack.
Keep them barred,
From your life...
Don't have them start.

Establish the fact you are better than that!
And don't be scarred...
To arrest a peace that will depart.
Oh-oh-no!

Don't accept fresh trouble not yours,
To endure...
Keep it barred.
From your life,
Don't have it start.

Decide you'll have none of it,
And quick!
Keep it barred.
You can resist it.
Keep it barred.
Be realistic.
Keep it barred.

Let go those woes,
You may hold.
Let go those woes,
You may hold.

Decide you'll have none of it,
And quick!
Keep it barred.
You can resist it.
Keep it barred.
Be realistic.
Keep it barred.

It's Not Realistic

It's not realistic,
That everyone can live so posh.
To be massaged and sit in spas.
Or fly in private jets.
Nibbling on petite fours,
And the best of caviar.

It is not realistic,
Everyone can be a 'star'.
Followed by an entourage.
Or rush quickly to a chauffeur driven,
Corniche Rolls Royce car.
Parked outside of the Ritz Hotel.

No.
It isn't realistic,
To have someone shop for them.
While they pop champagne,
To dropp a big tip after eating something exquisite.
As adorning fans watch.
From behind guards who block,
Closer approaches.

It's.
Just not for everyone,
Realistic.
Even for those wishing,
As they sit on a dock fishing..
For Tuna in the Ozarks.

Dodging Life

Dodging life for fantasies are not realistic...
But yet goes on.
Wanting to be comforted by things we pick...
Goes on and on.
And the getting upset with regrets that are kept...
Goes on and on.
With a craving that stays forever.
With an appetite changing never.

Dodging life for fantasies are not realistic...
But yet goes on.
Wanting to be comforted by things we pick...
Goes on and on.
And the getting upset with regrets that are kept...
Goes on and on.
With a craving that stays forever.
With an appetite changing never.

Dodging life to only get what is liked and wished...
Goes on and on.
With a holding on we hope is strong,
To keep with us...
Forever!
With an appetite changing never.

Dodging life for fantasies are not realistic...
But yet goes on.
To select with a holding on...
And kept,
Forever!

Simplistically Breezy

Keeping it realistic.
Untwisted from statistics!
I've got my charm and focus going.
Watching those whose minds flow,
Unknowing...
Their balled fists keeps them animalistic.

I've got to keep it realistic...
Tired of being analystic,
About who did what to whom and where?
Why that was done in others affairs?
I am staying on top of what I maintain.
Trying to rise above those misfits...
Unchanged.
Who seem encouraged to go ballistically insane!

Dah deedee dah dah doo!
Dah dee dah.
Dah dee dah,
Dah dee dah...
Dah deedee dah dah doo!
Dah dee dah...
Dee dee dah dah dah doo!

Simplistically breezy.

Dah deedee dah dah doo!
Dah dee dah.
Dah dee dah,
Dah dee dah...
Dah deedee dah dah doo!
Dah dee dah...
Dee dee dah dah dah doo!

Keeping it realistic...
Without hatchets to bury or bones to pick.
Removed from rat races,
And those who sniff conflicts.
I've learned my lessons...
And have found for me what fits!
I'm through with that kind of messing around,
And those who take those 'trips'.

Dah deedee dah dah doo!
Dah dee dah.
Dah dee dah,
Dah dee dah...
Dah deedee dah dah doo!
Dah dee dah..
Dee dee dah dah dah doo!

Burning Dreams

I cant help but laugh

at the irony

parents telling you can do anything be anything

but then you get older and the truth is revealed

they want you to be realistic

what happen to being able to do / be anything

You LIER!

And I see so many younger kids reaching for the stars

where is my star?

My milkyway of possibilities

have they crashed and burn......gone away

I wanted to be a singer

I sung and sung and sung

you said I was really good

so I believed if i tried I would be....

years later and here I am

you tell me I'm not good enough

praising some other little girl

am I invisible?

that was my dream but you crushed it

before me wanting me to become a veterinarian

to hell with that

All I want to do now is learn Japanese

live in Japan

while publishing books

I think video games and that stuff should be as violent as possible, but age-appropriate. It should be realistic. When it's not realistic you run into kids running around shooting people and not realizing the consequences.

When I see myself in the videogame it's amazing how realistic I look. This is the most authentic and realistic soccer game I have ever seen. It is like I'm looking in a mirror. The attention to detail is incredible.

I think it's realistic to have hope. One can be a perverse idealist and say the easiest thing: 'I despair. The world's no good.' That's a perverse idealist. It's practical to hope, because the hope is for us to survive as a human species. That's very realistic.

Sensurround

Sensurround
When I was only a zygote
I still remember the time
When there was nothing to know or to think about
Except the sound of my mind
And the sound from outside
Sensurround
Down at the bottom
Sensible to ear and sternum
And the world first spoke to me in sensurround
If mom had known she was expecting
She might have gone to see jaws
Instead of picking the film where the sound effects
Came right up through the floor
And Id be differently formed
Sensurround
Down at the bottom
Sensible to ear and sternum
And the world first spoke to me in sensurround
Accidentally in a coal mine
It was found
When they accidentally dug too far down
And found the sensurround
I still dont know who conceived it
Or where they got the idea
But there it was in the aisle by the exit sign
A woofer covered in wood
To shake the world when it should
Sensurround
Down at the bottom
Sensible to ear and sternum
Made the fakeness realistic
When the action went ballistic
One degree shy of sadistic
And the world first spoke to me in sensurround
If I could swim under the water
Without having to breathe
If I could follow the trail to the ocean floor
I think I know what thered be
Down there waiting for me
Sensurround
Down at the bottom
Sensible to ear and sternum
Made the fakeness realistic
When the action went ballistic
One degree shy of sadistic
And the world first spoke to me in sensurround

More Realistic and Less Corrupt

We need,
More magic in our lives.
A magic seen before our eyes.
And one in which all testifies.

We need,
More of this witnessed each day.
To lift our spirits up,
With a warmth that keeps us comforted.

We need,
More magic in our lives accepted.
One that reflects,
A magneticness that eliminates distress.

A magic applied without promises of concepts.
One that projects a fulfilling wholesomeness.
And willingly shared,
By those aware this caring is done,
Everywhere!

We need,
More magic in our lives.
A magic seen before our eyes.
And one in which all testifies.

A magic that lifts with a spark that blazes up!
A magic more realistic and less corrupt.
A magic that lifts with a spark that blazes up!
A magic more realistic and less corrupt.

We need,
More magic in our lives accepted.
One that reflects,
A magneticness that eliminates distress.
One that 'forever' puts conflicts to rest.

The realistic

It must be a poet
Who compared a woman’s cheeks to roses.
No realistic will find a rose in a woman’s cheeks.
A realistic lacks finenesss in sensuality..

I Wanna Sang

[T] Whassup little man, what's wrong wit'chu?
[T] Why you lookin so sad - what's wrong?
Man, I went to school today
and the teacher said I couldn't be no rapper
[T] Say what? Why she tell you that?
She told me I had to be somethin, that's more realistic
like I could actually be, like a construction worker or somethin
[T] Man, construction workers ain't realistic man
[T] You can't be out there done sawin all day, boy it's hot out there
[T] Man, just keep on goin to school, get your education
[T] That way, you can be anything you WANT to be
[Chorus: sung]
I just wanna sing, can I, sing you a song
I bet you'll love it (I just wanna sing) yeah yeah yeah
(I-I ain't askin for much)
[T] Well go 'head then
I just wanna sing, can I, sing you a song
I bet you'll love it (I ain't askin for much)
[Trick Daddy]
Listen; I just wanna make music, I just wanna verse or two
In fact, man, I wanna be a rapper too
And I could probably sing the blues
Cause I got problems too, plus I growed up in the projects too
Well can you put me on your soundtrack?
Cause I got a good theme song that Betty Right could probably sing on
Yo, I just want a chance at stardom
I just wanna be more than a thief or robbin
Well, what about a remix? And I could probably make the beat
and get it done all in less than a week
And make it clean for the radio, so the kids could watch the video
Yo, but y'all don't hear me doe
Man, I just want a crack at it
If I fail I'll be back, cause I refuse to be a crack addict
I wanna prove the critics wrong
What started off with a poem done turned it into a song
Now I'ma sing it for you
[Chorus w/ minor variations]
[Trick Daddy]
Listen to me! I wanna be a legend one day, that way
I can be put in the same category with Barry White and Marvin Gaye
And have a tribute dedicated to me
Sell platinum records and win Grammys so that the world can see
you could be anything that you want to be
Play sports or make music, just put your mind to it
And yo, I ain't the typical 'American Idol'
But when I'm done, I'm sure the boy Simon'll like me
Everybody can't act rap, and no matter how real the dream seem
e'rybody can't sing
But, there's another Michael Jordan or Tiger Woods
somewhere right in the hood, plus

People Do Like To Mock A Lot

To keep a lock and key on a valued life,
With a doing unconcerned,
Or bothered by wrongs or that which is right.
To then praise idols!
Is not realistic...
For someone to say,
They live a life with a taking of risks.
There is a bit of a conflict in your admission.

To be confronted by a boulder,
With a pretending of it to be a pebble...
Or a tiny rock dropped.
Is not realistic.
But of course I respect your point of view.
People do like to mock a lot.
Are you one of those people too?
With a taking of something serious...
To portray others as fools.

Or...
Is it that you are a pessimist,
And a teasing cynic too?

'I'm neither!
But I must admit...
Your grasp of the language is hypnotic.
And your knowledge of the topic,
Overwhelms in your stunning presentation.'

Something I've Accepted

Why have you continued and permitted,
Those negative comments said about you...
With such a tolerance?
Why not refute them as you should do.
Or at least argue against their existence.

'Remember when you discovered,
My ambitions were realistic?
And I pretended to be the fool,
You insisted me to be?
And with no resistance? '

But...
I really didn't know that other side of you.

'Which one?
The fool, the realistic or the sadomasochistic? '

What are you saying?
You derive pleasure from that?

'After years of endearing my character being attacked,
It has become something I've accepted.
Without anyone knowing that! '

Wouldn't you be more respected,
If facts about you were to others made known?

'Perhaps.
But the enjoyment I get,
Is in the laughing I give back.
Especially when the facts of my life,
Are exposed and to others shown.'

That's sick.

'From who's perspective?
Now you're trying to qualify,
The degree in which I achieve my pleasure.'

There is something 'dysfunctional' about you.

'Something?
Are you kidding?
'Everything' is dysfunctional about me.
Have you heard me complaining about it? '

No.
No...
I haven't.

What We Want To Become

we say life has many things to offer for us
a name, a birthstone, some signs
and we believe it from the start
birth, and growth and satisfaction
we keep on breathing
promises, and some visions of
opulence like a bunch of ripe grapes
sweet and pleasurable
we love to continue
we still have to become
whatever that is
but most, of course, is love
we put so much about ourselves on this miracle
this thing
this feeling of elation
we become hopeful we like to become more about
what we are not
we put more on what we are supposed to be

there are times however that make us think
someone comes with bad news and this happens
almost everyday
we want to live and become what we think we are

do not be discouraged
just be realistic: these do not really happen
there are too many illusions, the desert is filled with mirages
guess what? just be realistic and learn just to be
what you are
from the beginning

What happens if a big asteroid hits Earth ? Judging from realistic simulations involving a sledge hammer and a common laboratory frog, we can assume it will be pretty bad.
