almost gone…

Monday, December 26th, 2005

There was a time (oh so long ago) that I once had a cell phone to get in touch w/ folks. Well, the phone went on hiatus after chargers ceased working on it, and also the bill couldn’t be paid either. So, that lead to a sudden silence on my part to people I once [...]

self imposed

Thursday, December 22nd, 2005

Picture perfect suddenly went for a dark turn
Being lost without you scared up some harsh words
Now all I offer is apology after the same apology
Not too little too late, this is unedited honesty
You once talked with me and hours passed by seamlessly
Forgot about the day and wondered if you thought of me
the same way you [...]

Recap of: “Christmas With The Crunks”

Monday, December 19th, 2005

Got there when it was just a trickle of people falling in, then steadily there was a good stream of folks showing up. There were some people trying to downplay the way the show was going to turn out, but it was always known the natives would come through. Over 300 people came, and the [...]

what?

Friday, December 16th, 2005

Yesterday was a gooden. I went into the ujio and tried to get someone on a song. Instead of working w/ them, I actually ended up redoing the versed of another song I did on my own. No probem though, we’ll finish up the song the other guy was supposed to be on later. So [...]

A Quiet Confession

Wednesday, December 14th, 2005

Yeah I’m hushed, touched gently without compare
Giving myself without worry is something rare
Whispers no longer drifting, waiting on some luck
These words never spoken are now given in complete trust
Don’t have to tuck them away saving them for another day
I only have to figure out how to bring them in another way
Taken back to younger days, [...]

the native connection

Monday, December 12th, 2005

There’s been an evolultion of doing dirt around here
Just like the surveilance they use to try and see clear
We don’t have careers, our years reflect something else
Our words aren’t about work, we got other stories to tell
Scars, stitches, bruises and welts on the out and inside
This was long before we stepped up to the element [...]

finally, a song…

Sunday, December 11th, 2005

The song is at least started now. I laid down all four verses and the hook. I didn’t get them all to sound on point, but that’s just some fine tuning on my part whenever I can get timed booked for that. Voice tracks need to be raised in volume, but it’s workable for now.
Booked [...]

Needless Contemplating

Thursday, December 8th, 2005

This one kept going a different way, then I’d look it over at that point in writing and try to restructure it to fall back in line. I’m thinking it made it out alright, so here it is for public viewing. Just to clear up things, it’s not directed to anyone in particular, as many [...]

Turning The Tide…

Tuesday, December 6th, 2005

I was planning on posting up about the weekend, and while writing it, got sidetracked and didn’t do it. Then I planned on rewriting what I tried to write earlier, and again, something got in the way and natta. Then I wrote up a long entry, but the content touched on too many things I [...]

particulars

Tuesday, December 6th, 2005

I was on the phone w/ a friend tonight, and it was a lengthy conversation about different things. We laughed, and also exchanged some genuine thoughts and ideas. We know some of the same folks and one in particular is central between us. The central piece isn’t so good these days though.
This central person was [...]

Warrior Recollections

Thursday, December 1st, 2005

Once looked for signs to rest my worried eyes and tortured mind
Once tired of trying to climb so others can see my shine
So I’m still dedicated to the grind day in and day out
No one else was looking out for me when it came to pay out
But when I made out with my share, all [...]
