You're so psychedelic,
You burst into vivid colors
In the style of a kaleidoscope,
Because only something so beautiful
Could represent
Your light

You're my favorite hallucination
I imagine your hand reaching out,
I try to grab it,
then suddenly you disappear
Like the smoke from my cigarette
Into the thin air
I am clamoring to breathe
Today I saw you
For the first time
In months
Oh, how familiar..

The wobbling knees
the shaky breath,
and clammy hands
That all come from being stricken
with love
and lust
And being lost in a feeling of lonely morose
As I watched you walk away.
All I could imagine was kissing your lips. I can taste you in the air.
Soon I'll leave this all behind
I'm California bound
I watched the sky bleed red last night,
It was a beautiful sight,
Maybe God cut the sunset with a knife,
Left it to die, or maybe
Bleeding is a new way of life?
Under a guise that maybe
Daytime isn't what I'm supposed to like,
And the devil's filled with spite
So he takes away the light, like,
"My shadow... touches"

Darkness, creeps, over, me,
Why, am I, scared?
Darkness, creeps, over, me,
God told me, to be-ware
I, didn't, listen
Devil pulls me, by the, hair

He said

You know your idolized reality?
It's a lie, my disciple
Can't hide your broken mentality,
You can write these peace cyphers
But what does it change, in actuality ?
Not a **** thing, young writer
Let's skip the formalities and say that
At night, I creep up in ya head like,
"I'm here, start running"


Darkness, creeps, over, me,
Why, am I, scared?
Turning, to the, word, but
God, wasn't, there,
I, should've, listened, but I
didn't, really, care,

Last night, the devil crawled in my bed like,
"Make space, we're sharing."
A tale of Two Citiez - J Cole remix
To quote your favorite movie,
"Don't you forget about me.."
I could change your world
With a touch of my lips
And a brush of your hair
I would once again
Be your center of gravity
You're the smoke I can't catch in my glass
The sand I tried to mold that ran between my fingers
I couldn't make you stay,
So you slipped away
With a grit beneath my nail
And the smell of stale smoke
Still lining my nose
