In a thriving city a boy was born, growing up melancholy and forlorn, thoughtful, with a poet's sensitive soul, he knew he was different and unwhole. His life would be both rose and piercing thorn. He took to the road, and he travelled far. In the Summer of Love, he found his star, and for the first time, he felt happiness. a strange new...

Jokers Lab
You know where he's at He been in Gotham, Whole city lit, He grew and blossomed. What he touches, he flips, Moves with caution, Always asks if you good Load up attachment. Map in his hands, Survives in the woods, Light up a match He’s good in the hood. Hustle forever, forever he should, Walked through a path With booby traps like the Goonies would. He grew up a...

She is music, the kind that heals, Notes that no time or touch conceals. And I was nothing—until her light, Now I echo through her every night. [Chorus] She is music, I am her song, A...

Give me a deal
Cooking up a meal, Give a deal, Hit the reel keep spinning... Flip it and win, Feel the rush just for a minute. Inhale, I prevail I want the diamonds that glisten. Talking to this toxic girl, But I got no feelings. I burn bridges sometimes, 'Cause I don’t like they children. Tryna blemish my image, I drive these hoes to a frenzy. Tryna gaslight me I talk...

Premium Member Beat the Drum Softly
Beat the drum softly, and beat it with heart, Lay down a rhythm that rises from soul; Small though indeed is the size of our part, That which it is, we can still play in full. Loud are the clashes that crash from the street, Ominous thunder that thrashes from storm; Myriad pacing of multitude feet, Let still not chaos be your...
