I used to be married to a man by the name of Music…

but it's over now…he's in an abusive relationship and there's nothing I can do about it.


 

Dear World,


 

I put my heart in a box and handed it to you


 

But nobody wants that responsibility....who would've thought lil ol' me could impact so many souls and I haven't even spoke one word.  Press a couple keys and write a couple lyrics now everybody knows you inside out.  Put on a couple fake smiles and do what they want and now everybody wishes they were you.  Are you sure you want that?  Last time I checked I was on the chopping block....Judge gave me 2-4 and after that yelled Life.  That mallet being slammed into that wooden panel was probably one of the most relieving moments of my life.  Looking over at the jury who held my life in their hands just to say one word, and take it away.....guilty.  No, I didn't break the law...but then again most people who receive a sentence were "innocent" right?  Last thing I remember happening was me being born a prodigy.  Kid too smart for this world so God had to find a way to tell me to slow down....this is it.  Ultimate sacrifice, your life for someone else's.   Yeah I'm fine for the time being, thanks for asking....but the judge wrote out the rest of my life....I don't think I'll get out on good behavior, but I can try to fight my way out.  You can't change fate but destiny is always open for new things.  So now I have to make a choice...and I will...live for today, fuck yesterday and tomorrow might just be that much better.

I put my heart in a box and handed it to the world....nah....I'll just place it in the ocean and let it take sail with the current...it's safer out there on its own anyways.....I'll catch up with it when tomorrow comes.  Let's see if this jury was correct with their verdict.

My mixtape is coming soon…


 

Always,

C

What's up lil lady? This is a good post. I like when you show vulnerability. It shows you are still human still with the masses. I can't wait for your mixtape.

UMMM...THAT WAS WHAT'S UP... girl, this is like the third post I've read of yours today and I'm trippen off how much I'm feeling them.

I usually just crack the heck up when I read your post, but these are so reflective... you're in a place...maybe it's a place of change...whatever's happening, SOMETHING'S happening...good luck with the mixtape...can't wait to hear it.
