SPEED

Will I ever have the time

Thoughts shoot right through my racing mind

Life’s got me feeling emotional

Time to mime

Being myself is takin energy

Believe me i’m tryin

To be unbreakable like my sign

A Lion

STOP!

Meet my friend, Ryan

He’s Hawaiian

Watch him fly away & drift through space

A Dandelion

On his way to the promised land

Straight to Zion

But Wait !

Rage shoots through him like nitrate

At this rate we’ll have to kick him off the ship

He’s dead weight

Cmon man concentrate

Calibrate right through your buffer state

You want to speak to her

Now these verbs you can conjugate

“Let’s go swim before it’s too late”

Negative habits put to rest

Time to develop some positive traits

As you sink with her the night sky illuminates

Look! she says “right in the sky there flies a drake”

I kiss her before my thoughts have time to fabricate

Peering into my profoundly dark eyes at a perfect rate

She says; “Kareem you’re life I hope no one ever confiscates”

This moment’s got me feeling like Alexander the Great mixed with the capital of Kuwait

Mind wide open staring right through my controllable fate

I take 4 breaths & yell

“ CHECKMATE !”
