Wrote this a couple months ago

Wrote this a couple months ago...


"Won't be forever, a nine to five's in-climate weather
tough as nails and thick as leather
my skin was made for something better"

Hmm Its funny how I forgot about this blog and this work 
I was doing on the site after I got the job. Its cause I didn't 
have time. I wrote this a couple months before I got laid off
I think I was waiting to be set free. Right now I don't have 
time to waste. See you at the tip top.

oh... hey

Its funny how things change so quickly, themes for one night so light they move rather swiftly. Is my tongue not worthy of truth? Doubt it, but our hearts weren't made bulletproof, how bout it? And my eyes weren't made to stare at you. Let's sing the song, do the dance like grown ups do, but they be hurting too, for real? But we can't be real in a world of acute ears and mirrors, the smoke play the roll to keep the lie afloat.  and I just wanna speak past this lump in my throat. Brush it off right, tuck it away from sight. Its a better win coming pass the loss. But its simply not fulfilling like you thought.

Doozyy

Usually when I walk down the street I'm lookin down toward my feet, so I got into sneakers so I would have something else to see while I admire the concrete sliding down streets housed by the ci-ty. Today's rhythm is a little different tho. I woke then left at about 7:35a, work is far enough away to justify this. It's cool out probably low 50's but it changes so much here that it really don't matter at times, just be ready, right? Should I have done that? As much as I hate to admit to my ignorance but dammit man, I don't know. That's some deep water I'm treading but I wanna say that she liked it. I guess I'm sorta cocky, but if you ask me I have reason to be. I kinda feel like I stepped over an important boundary tho and I'd like to think that I couldn't help making that move for a second but, I could have. Its confusing to me, chasing feelings and acting on the so willing-ly I sorta question my motivations and intentions. "It was just a kiss, and I didn't mean no harm by it." "Yeah man but that shit mean a lot, well... it at least mean that you ain't trying to just shake her hand when you see her and shit, unless you're a tease." "Ah. Yeah, I see." these conversations I have within makes me wonder which side of me it is that has the most sense. Sometimes it seems that I just do things because I can, and I lived a long time thinking I never could so its like I'm testing the waters (whack). Kinda clueless to what's too much, how bout you? Just trying to be a better person for all and a better friend to my friends, but I've shown too much again. Damn this train is already crowded and all these people on the platform want in on the party. I wanna get to work on time so I gotta jump in but I swear I ain't like them, or am I?

The people that were with me last night will get it.

Dopafied Weekend Homies



Don't ask me why the hell I wrote this... I just did ok

So they were saying something whispering in some ears about a party at these two girls' place I knew from around the way, the day was Friday and costumes were what's up but I was coming from the gig and had no costume friend so I skate to they crib and there's a keg and some kids acting silly it was packed wit drunk folks all around so I kinda chilled til the police did they thing and broke broke it up. Really that's all I really wanted then I kinda sorta started to enjoy party that wasn't really a party just chill taking pictures, that's what up. So now we skate to Chicago and Ash for another dope party at some folks pad and it was all chill and I got the feeling and was comfortable enough to get hyped up but I just relaxed and talked to some people like I normally do making moves and junk while Butter taking pictures of this dude throwing up. So me and Juan was planning big dreaming while these kids throwing back and taking swigs of they're of there favorite potions, vices over flowing but its human that's my notion. Then we changed it up and went for breakfast yep I had some fresh French toast while nigel tryin to roast Chaise from some place in NYC and most likely he was probably suc-ceed- ing, The dude even got me on a trip to NC ya see Charlotte to be exact now back to the story we dipped home after that I took a cab cause I aint wanna impose on my peeps Nikki and crash at her pad. Kinda glad that I had cause I some good not a minute was bad.


Fresh times with my peeps as we scour these streets for good times and dreams cause trying to eat.
Feed our ears with beats let our minds succeed, plant them seeds we need before we leave.

Life is just a century dream, we don't know what it mean so we search to try to get a little higher
and though we got a real short rope we still live with the hope its all about what we desire.


Day two of my weekend dude, chasing a wish, bout this girl on my mind and my thoughts are rich. So in my head she be kinda star studded and ish, Sweetest day and we posed to go out in play, at her fav Thai spot that's around the way. But things change, she aint that hungray, so she made it to my place, we talked a lil bit, I gave her her gifts, I tried to move in but she be pushed away, I think its safe to assume that she aint feeling the mood or even sitting here chillin with me in my room, and I don't wanna be rude so we talk so more cause there aint too many girls I truly adore. I'm so attached and my heart won't come back if I tryed to pull away but whatever cause the weather ain't nice everyday. Basically she ain't feeling it so my feelings for her can't stay the same see I don't even know how to be her friend in this way, cause its a tease to me and I'm at a weakness when she around and I hope that shes sees this. Gonna keep my heart in tack, so I think I'll detach, I feel like I'm giving up on all that work, I put into our friendship for all that its worth. But I refuse to be exposed when she fully clothed, I'm confused but before we close the doh (door) Have you ever had feelings? I choose to know. Dealing with the pain of a friendship I had to let go of mane. cause I 'm trying save me from them same old thangs... dig

Fresh times with my peeps as we scour these streets for good times and dreams cause trying to eat.
Feed our ears with beats let our minds succeed, plant them seeds we need before we leave.

and though we got a real short rope we still live with the hope its all about what we desire.


Day three is in the making I find my mind thanking bout the show at the empty bottle, funny is the name cause the stuff that came yesterday got my heart still feeling kinda hallow. but the show must go on my day just begun so I sway north quite a ways to see my old roommates, and mail I got a ton. So I say thanks and be of to my new place any way Hit the apple for bout four hours today get web site working while the show a CNN special bout global warming. I'm going green I think cause the future looking bleak for our planet we in a state of panic and concern cause some where on the line we done made the wrong turn, fast forward to the event and we barely got in there were no tickets to be scoring, but its Juan's birth day and he determined I made my way down the block to rock the empty bottle, fool's gold tour and tomorrow is Toronto. Had a lot of fun with my homies Juan and Butter, Nikki and lil Ashley, but lastly they were filling the line and that made me smile now I'm thinking wow we doing something right, not a lot a sleep that night but monday morning, yeah, it sorta turned out right.




I meant for some of this rhymed I but didn't intend for the who thing to I'm just writing bout my days in creative ways cause I need to journal my life, for the rest of my life, I'm document the life and times of the fly, so my chillens know how I came to be I.

Am I just at a stop sign....or a dead end?

So at what part of a decision can you tell if you've made a good one or a bad one? How do you determine if something is going to work or not? I'm battling with alot of things rightnow and one of them is wondering if I have again jumped into an idea or decision too soon without thinking about what could go wrong or the negatives of the situation.

I saw moving back to Chicago as a second chance. A chance to do right what I messed up on before, to try to make more of it than I did before. I'm here I guess to learn and grow. I saw everything falling into place....and overlooked the fact that maybe things wouldn't "fall into place" right away and rather "fall apart". See there's something about my life that makes things never go as planned...something always has to go haywire and crazy. I don't get this. This effects me in rediculous ways. When things happen my mind goes into fast foward and I do nothing but think about how I'm going to fix the current situation, what I could do and how what I do will pane out. It's troubling...because again whatever I do will not go as planned. I don't eat, I barely sleep until I feel as though I have things back under control. It doesn't matter how many people tell me, or how many times I tell myself that everything is going to be ok, my mind is still racing morning, noon and night. When my brain is in this constant motion, I find it hard to concentrate on much else. I don't want to go out, I don't want to hang out...I actually have almost no desire to want to do anything unless it seems like a step closer to eliminating my rollercoaster of thoughts or be enough to atleast make me stop thinking about them long enough to enjoy myself. But as we all know...the brain is powerful.

I really don't know why I just now decided to spill all of this on this blog, after weeks of not typing a word (sorry Brandon), but at this point I feel as though talking it over with friends or family is just uneccessary repeatition. I feel myself reaching out to people, for them to hear me, give me a kind word (because really it's the only thing that really keeps me going, I call my mother everyday for that very reason) give me that sense of drive. It's great to know there's someone in your corner.

I mean don't know what's going on with me right now...with my life, with my situation, but I am deperately trying to find my way in this world. DESPERATELY!....and I keep making wrong turns....I'm just hoping I'm not going to have to end up making a U-turn....again!

Keep your fingers crossed for me! And as for me, I'm going to try to keep pressing my mental stop button, everytime my mind slips into fast foward.
