about

Prologue marks the introduction of my literary works.
A story of a boy who finds his talent, yet is consumed by temptation.
A metaphor of a connection and relationship with Jesus Christ.
This is the beginning.

lyrics

lyrics:
these rap cats is lacking mad skills and popping mad pills
while dropping fat bills, they plot a mass killing spree
on the minds of the children and give 'em a deal for free
tell 'em that money means everything and tell 'em real emcees
are the ones who fill up and give up all their will for free
but what does that even mean in the mind of an adolescent?
dreaming of dreams, hoping to catch a blessing
out of the air and find a scheme for happiness that doesn't have a message
only reading that money changes you up
fame gives you the dames, praise makes you a god
blame means you a fraud, and fakes pay you the love
but is that the end of it? so many dangerous goals
to go chasing the thrones full of deceit and lies
but the people's eyes seem to be savoring those
now that's some food for thought, but the kid blew it off
more suited for suits, cool views, and the newest pot
that he got from the dude down the street
peddling, meddling with the new stuff that was two thou' a piece
but he paid it like he had the cash stacked in a black room
along with his soul, packed with an unlock able phone
ring, ring, ring, the sound he heard through his ears
chiming perfectly, impervious to curses and fears
was it purchased? who knows, but regardless
it disturbed the quietness and the piety imitated by darkness
targeting the cortex and the vortex of the mind that seemed unimportant
at the time, but then he opened his eyes
viewing everything in sight, the mind was blown with surprise
the left lobe thinking right, the right one thinking left
"why am i flawed? what's the point?" he writes, numb with distress
eyes wandered back to the screen, reminiscent of adam and eve
guilt was filling up his spirit, picture the sadness of He
He, whose name is I AM, with the God man sitting on His right hand and His majesty feeds
all creation, and it worships. bursting forth
and purging past the murkiness while breaking through the surface
visions of this knowledge got him flocking back to the Shepherd
brands of a leper removed, given a badge from the Perfecter
scepter grasped in His holy hands, revealed the branding
branded on his soul before the forming of the planets
and coursing through his veins, the full portion of Christ's compassion

so he grinds for the King, he writes for the King then he rhymes for the King. (3x)
