Faith

I choose to speak to whom I choose
I feel it is hard to let go
Because of my heart
For so long
I have been sitting in the dark
Admiring the light, staring at it
Eventually coming to realize
It surrounds me
and this
This is where I need to be
Enveloped in positivity
And realizing my faith
Loving Allah
Doing all it takes
Being real with myself
Making better choices
Examining the problems
And fixing them as needed
Better believe it
Because all it takes it hope
Forgiveness and compassion
It's not a joke
Live life to the fullest
Focus on your health
And your family
Your heart
And then your wealth
You know the feelings you've felt
Let the positive
Encourage your thoughts
Keep the right intentions
& Be careful where you walk
& To whom you talk
Have faith
Strong Faith

Untitled

Exposing myself
Questions asked
By myself, to myself
& I wonder
Do you even care
Are you really too caught up
To be there
I know I bug you
Bet you can't stand it
I can't stop you from living your life
& We leave empty handed
So I'm just suggesting
We should just try to live better
Should have stopped you
What can I say
You're gonna do it either way
& So am I, but it's my choice
My choice to stop
& Do better
Live better
Feel better
Rock sweaters
Still be happy
In any weather
No you won't get me down
I stay up all day
All night
What the f***
Anyways
Still have love for you
I just can't let it go
Tryna guide us right
& I hope it shows

The Remedy...

Gave you all of me
& Where are you now
Purely a mystery
I made mistakes
Didn't listen
Time after time
In the end
It's only you
On my mind
Best thing
I never had
I wanted you bad
What am I to do
I guess I gotta
Let go
Wherever you are
I wanted
To let you know
I forgive you
Can you forgive me
Can we just be us again
The good friends we were
Chilling and talking
Now it's all obscured
Come back to me
I always hope
& in this life
Loosing someone
Is not a joke
Take it how you like
Need you tonight
& Each day after
Will you come back
& What was the factor
To make you leave
I wish you had stayed
I would have
Loved you any way..

Random

How many times did I let you get what you wanted
& You still wanted more, what are you here for
Taking advantage, you have no right
Was it really worth the fight
Despite it all, I won't fall again
If I do I'll get right back up
Lessons learned...
Random.

Why Do You Smile ?

I know what you're thinking
You're at a loss
When I'm sad & lonely
I holla @ the boss
My one and only mother
Ashamed to have hurt her
Pray for forgiveness
Nothing major
But major's a witness
Of all the things I've done
All the times I felt lost
Who would have known
That I would come to find myself
True Happiness they can't take from me
My heart loves and it loves
I pray you'll find another way
& Maybe someday come to say
That you love me babe
You always have to let them go
Damn, It never felt this good before
Cause I feel you here in spirit
Simple words, I love when I hear it
Sad to say I need space
Cause I have to focus on me, this face
Won't be showing no lies
Nothing to hide
Take what you wanna take
These are my innermost feelings
& You won't make me break
Dealing with fate
& What kind of future I'll have
Cuttin' back on the negatives
& All that is bad
You need to move the fuck on
Cause I'm not interested
Ain't judging you
I know you'll get this when I say
I truly believe that Islam is the way
& I ask Allah, please do not let me stray
Allow me to be me, each and every day
Because I smile just knowing
That you're helping me find my way.
In Sh' Allah there will come a day
When all of the good things I pray
Will become a reality for the next today...

Takes time for the Sun to shine...

I Wanna do things proper
Get them done, out of the way
I don't want to really waste my time
Waiting to be found by some lover
Who will make me feel more alive
Cause really you know, I'll ride
But don't you go thinkin' that way
I wanna keep it goodie good, no lies
Legitimate checks coming in line
If I ever took the time to find
Somebody like you it would be impossible
People are truly unique & you are unstoppable
Have me standing still, amazed and yet
You're so far away
Even though I know I should be focusing on me
You cross my mind, interested in you
The only thing I adore more right now
What to do
R u Cofused ?
To love & to loose
What are we gonna do
When I just talk shit
& You never come through
Still need you more and more
Got me singing the blues
Dazed but still mentally aware
Some people act like they just ain't there
Reckless behavior, you better be ware
Stay the fuck away from me
You got me scared
But I fear Nothing but Allah
Guide me on the straight path
Let them feel my love
& Not judge on the mistakes of my past
Because it only really made me, me
This person that I am
Can't you see
I could go on and on
To let you know
That my love for Allah
Should really show
I count on Allah
& I know
All will be well with time
Takes patience for things to grow and shine
So I'll just focus on myself and grind
& Make sure I maintain myself cause happiness
Happiness is a friend of mine
Oh the many things that makes me smile....

Karma is Instant...

What do you want from me
That you didn't already get
Karma is instant
Has me in a fit
Would never force your hand
Before I forced mine
Unless you gestured first
Now it's all on my mind
Some love turns us blind
Think then, it is really love
If it could be so cold, yet kind
Fake love surrounds many
They keep to it, rock it steady
It's just a lifestyle
Don't get caught up
I wanna touch & feel true love
I've had enough
With those who play games
Only to get in there
So you took as much
As any other, ya hear
Claim if feels nice
When you hold me near
Karma is instant
It's just the way life goes
Ups, Downs, Friends, Foes
Who in the end might
Come to like you
Thinkin' about you tonight
What am I to do, only what's right
Feels better to get it off my chest
Than to fake a smile & not say the rest
I still think you're the best
Unless someone else proove you wrong
But that could never be
Cause each person got a different level
That they on
Whats that song
The one I made about you
Wish you could hear it
What would we do...

Be Yourself...

Mentally stressed
Do what I do best
I don't even know what to say
It's all in the wind
It's blown away
Hopin' you would come and say
All the things I been needing to hear
Needing you near
But it's just a memory
Over, disconnected
Like your phone
Remember when
When you used
To leave me all alone
& I would patiently wait
Wait for you to come home
What a dog's world we live in
Everybody just trying to eat
Hungry for better health
And self knowledge
Is how it really should be
But their motives
Money makes so much sense to them
How many have you lost
To that mind-state
& Can we just elevate them
Got me off mine
Girl, I'm ready to stand up
These are my rights
Naw, I ain't gonna
Let no man touch
You must be out your mind
Told you so many times
Like they should have told me
Too much going on right now
I gotta get back to the old me
The real me, be myself.

Whoever You Are... (To Me.)

I wanna love you any way that I can
I wanna reach out and stretch my hands
Only in a dream cause you too far
Thinkin' bout you, how we gaze @ stars
Wondering what your up to, wherever you are
You seem to close to me to let go
But you're not mine and I already know
So me, I'm not strong enough and it shows
If only my fingertips I could learn to hold
Islam on my mind and Allah guiding my soul
I wanna be with you babe, till we grey and old
Only in a dream cause you too far
Thinkin' bout you, how we gaze @ stars
Wondering what your up to, wherever you are
Whoever you are...
