Freestyle Flow

It's been awhile since I wrote down a rap
better yet something poetic
where people go, damn I get it
Something to perk up your ears
and get your heart racing
because someone has just opened your eyes
to so many new places
I miss the way I use to let the words slip from my tongue
the way they rolled through my mind
like a heart beat
a pulse
a rhythm
and then that was that
I had to get it out of my mind-rewind
and do it all again

There's more to me
than what you see
just ask me
and you will know the deepest parts
those rooms locked inside, only visible in the dark
No secrets, no sewn shut lips, no more broken hearts
I have so much more to do as I live
I have a blank slate on the way to my future
as I walk slowly, I remember who knew me
I remember all there for me
I remember those who cared for me

This isn't working out the way I planned
so if you don't mind
I'm going to start again
A little shorter this time
and I might have some cheesy rhymes
but it's just time, and a clock ticking by
If you have nothing to lose
then you can just run on through
the brick walls of reality
but just phase it out as haze you see
What's a day without the sun
What's a night without the stars
visible or not, we have city lights
Connect the dots one by one
Rushing will not cancel out being late
rushing is what makes crashing such a mistake
open your eyes
and be mesmerized
by what there is to see, that you couldn't as you ran with the breeze

I think I'm getting there now
hit me up with some inspiration some how
it's all deep inside
I'm calling it out of hiding
but it's playing a game
it's making me insane
I have more to say than random keys clicking
against a blank canvas
I'll think about it
but for now
I will dream
