If Today Was My Last Day

If today was my last day on earth and somehow I knew;

I’d spend my last hours with you;

I’m not sure about my fate when the Lord one day calls me;

Or where I’ll spend eternity;

 

So I want to make my last day as if it was Heaven on earth before I leave;

I’ve had money all my life but never a single day of peace;

I’ve always wanted love but it always slipped away from me;

And left me with tears at night so lonely;

 

But then we met and I finally found sanity;

Who knew, peace and love would come in the form of you;

I was always looking for something else girl that’s the truth;

So if today was my last day to live and somehow I knew;

 

Girl I’d spend every last second loving you.

The Only One I Still Miss

You are my only regret;

Sometimes I wish that you and I never met;

Even though I was too blame;

Girl ever since I’ve loved you I just haven’t been the same;

 

I keep wishing to go back to the day we had our first fight;

So I could stop myself before I ever made you cry;

Cause I need you here tonight;

I miss you more than I ever thought that I would;

 

In time I thought I’d forget about you;

It’s been years but missing you is all I seem to do;

Love since us has come in and out of my life;

But it’s never felt as right as when love was you and I;

 

I know you don’t care anymore or even feel the same;

Cause so many times I’ve said sorry but all you do is push me away;

I admit I am the one to blame;

But what more do you want me to say?

 

I’ve admitted to every one of my mistakes;

I can’t take back all the tears I once made you cry;

Or even those lonely nights alone when you longed to be by my side;

Sorry is all I can say;

 

I’ve tried it all to get you back but all you do is tell me that it’s far too late;

And that you could never trust me again;

Don’t leave me alone like this;

Cause you’re still the only girl that I miss

 

Heaven Sent

On this side of Heaven I never thought would come a day;

That an angel would ever come my way;

The Lord heard me as I prayed;

And He allowed an angel called you to escape;

 

Perfection such as yours I know must be heaven made;

Cause eyes like yours steals sunset’s beauty away;

I never thought you’d ever feel the same;

But you did and here we are in love today;

 

Please understand if I take it slow;

It’s so I don’t scare you away and you choose to ever let me go;

It’s not that I don’t love you, I just find it hard to show;

Love before you came damaged my soul;

 

But I’m sure I want to love you the rest of my life;

And If I had my way you’d already be my wife;

If you find this hard to believe sometimes;

Know that my kisses never lie…

Set The Record Straight

Rumours have it that you’re the reason I found fame;

And that every word I wrote was based on you, I just can’t believe you’re so vain;

So I’ve decided to set the record straight;

Even though you thought I loved you, truth is the girl before you occupied that space;

I used you to get over her, I’m sorry to say;

 

You were just another pawn in love’s ruthless game;

I never wanted to tell you the truth or let it come out this way;

But you challenged my talent as if you’re the reason I’m made;

When the truth is I just used you as a Band-Aid;

 

To get over what used to be, I used you as a sex slave;

Like a drug, I used you as an escape;

I may have cried when you left me;

But those were tears of joy and not of pain;

 

I may have used you as an example but that’s exactly how I used you every other day;

So really looking back girl what’s changed?

I ain’t bitter, I’m just upset at all of this;

People around my way saying you’re the reason for my gift;

 

So I decided to retaliate and tell you the shit you never knew;

Girl don’t you think if I really wanted you for life, that I’d still be with you;

I’m sure the questions have surfaced, if that was the case, why’d I run you through?

Maybe it’s because I never gave a fuck about you?

 

You were damaged and easy to fuck, Kirsten my bad,I thought you knew;

But since you claimed my whole book was based on you;

I thought I’d finally tell you the truth;

You weren’t the love of my life, you were just another fucking substitute

 

Something’s A Heart Can’t Forget

There are just something’s that a heart can’t forget;

And loving you is something I haven’t been able to forget ever since you left;

You captured my soul ever since the day we met;

And since then on you my hearts been set;

 

You showed me that real love wasn’t based on pain;

And ever since, I’ve never been able to find love like ours again;

Now days girls make love out to be a game;

And I’ve lost every time that I’ve played;

 

Where is the kind of love I once got from you?

A love that was so true;

When we met girl I was still a prisoner of what used be;

So I couldn’t give you the best of me;

 

I was a causality of love’s cold war;

I was blinded by the pain that you never saw;

I admit I should have told you the truth;

But I was so used to losing love and girl I didn’t want to lose you;

 

So I pretended to love you and lead you on;

I wish I knew that you were the one;

Then I would never have done you wrong;

But now it’s too late;

 

And I can’t get back our yesterdays;

I’d take back all the times I made you cry if I could;

I’ve tried changing your mind, but girl you just refuse;

You say that I should have weighed up the costs;

 

Before I ever hurt you and your love I lost;

Girl life doesn’t have a guide book;

I wish it did, then I’d still be with you;

But since it don’t then I’m sitting alone in my room;

Looking out the window as tears fall from my eyes;

 

The same tears I once made you cry;

I used to choose my friends above you;

And wasted time that I should have been using to love you;

Now all those friends are gone and I’m all alone;

 

Wishing you’d be the next one to call me on the phone;

Every time it rings I rush to pick it up;

Hoping it’s you but it never was;

So I argue every day with God above;

 

Asking Him If He knew I’d be blind and I’d do you so wrong;

Why did He send you at all girl?;

Yes you opened up my eyes and it’s a hard lesson that I’ve learnt;

But this lesson was unnecessary and girl it hurt;

 

I am finally the man you always wished I’d be;

But who do I give this man to now that you no longer next to me;

I treat girls like I should have treated you;

But they play the game of love and yet again I loose;

 

Is this Karma’s way of paying me back for all I put you through;

I’m not sure, all I know is that I’m still in love with you;

I only realised how much I loved you the day you told me that we’re through;

God turns a deaf ear whenever I pray about you and I;

 

Asking Him to send back the only love of my life ;

Although you’ve found someone new, my love for you has never died;

When you left you set the bar of love far too high;

Girls can’t reach that level no matter how hard they try;

I thought I’d forget you after all this time;

 

But I still remember everything we shared as if it happened last night;

I know you tried being friends and it failed;

I can’t just be friends with the girl who once stole my heart away;

You still mean more than this world to me;

 

And at times I still find it hard to breathe;

Whenever our song takes me back in time and I’m haunted by what used to be;

I come to realise that we may never get to love here again on this side of Heaven;

But when I die I asked God to give me the chance to love you once again;

 

So I can take the chances I never did back then;

Cause I’m sure you were the girl that was made just for me;

How can I be so sure people might be thinking;

I’m sure because love was never as perfect as when you once loved me….

 

MP Where I Long To Be

People say fame and money changed me;

Yes I agree, I’ve learnt that money don’t grow on trees;

Just because I’ve relocated to GP;

Don’t mean I’ve forgotten from where I once came;

 

Secunda will always be my first love come what may;

MP birthed me before fame ever called my name;

And I’ll always give MP its props in everything I say;

Even if those that once surrounded me said I’d fail;

 

I’m a tenacious nigga so I made it anyway;

And although GP is my new home, my love for Secunda will never change;

They were the best memories I ever made;

My very first love that broke my heart;

 

Me and her used to make love at the “Duck Pond”;

And I must admit;

GP is not for the faint of heart, I’ve never been one to quit;

But ever since I’ve moved here, all I’ve endured was shit;

 

There’s constant heat from the Metro Police;

And dead bodies on the highway is all I see;

I wish I could return to MP;

Where life was so easy;

 

Here “friends” I’ve made are all dope fiends;

And at every opportunity them niggas want to do you in;

I’ve only been here for 3 years, but I’ve been shot twice and stabbed numerous times by those I kept closest to me;

Women here I’ve found are A grade ho’s and bitches;

Only chasing white lines and riches;

GP ain’t what they make it out to be;

If I could I’d return to the place that own’s my heart, MP is calling me;

Over time I’ve seen that GP ain’t the place for me;

My nigga’s I miss MP

 

Thank You For Saving My Life (Dedicated To Elzano Cloete)

You found me at the bottom of a bottle;

Drowning in the depths of my sorrow;

A stranger gone too far to forgive;

A man dying with no will to live;

 

Then you held me so close to your heart;

And you told me it’s going to be alright;

You’re the reason that I’m still alive;

These are more than just words that I write;

 

So thank you for saving my life;

You came to me and picked me up from the sand;

You wiped my tears away and told me that you understand;

Guess you were my guardian angel, a part of God’s master plan;

 

We’ve been best friends ever since that day;

16 years now and the bond just gets stronger every day;

The love I have for you never changed;

Even though I’ve moved miles away;

 

I tried to call so many times but your number has changed;

I know you must think I forgot about you and made friends new;

When the truth is I’m alone and I’m really missing you;

I trust no one, I’m sure you always knew;

 

At times you’re heavy on my mind;

In my room wiping away the tears that I cry;

Regretful for moving and leaving you behind;

I miss having my best friend by my side;

 

I was always the loud one and you were so quiet;

I always said how I feel and you kept all your feelings inside;

Somehow that combination worked out;

And wherever I was you were always around;

I’m sorry for all the promises I broke that let you down;

 

If I could, I’d take them all back right now;

And the mistakes I made;

No matter what I did you always treated me the same;

For that I’ll love you always;

 

Us meeting was more than just coincidence, it was fate;

Looking back now, it was God who sent you my way;

Life’s been unfair to both of us since our younger days;

We cried the same tears, even though I problems weren’t the same;

 

It’s the little things you used to do that occupied the biggest part of my heart;

You gave my life a brand new start;

Your heart is one of a kind, more precious than gold;

Things I knew but I never told;

 

I always took your friendship for granted and I’m so sorry;

Hindsight is always 20/20;

I was young and blind but now I see;

How much your friendship means to me;

 

For all the calls you made that I used to ignore;

I’m so regretful, how now I wish you’d call;

And the next time my phone rings it’s you on the other line;

But it never is and It makes me miss you like all the time;

 

You were there even before fame called my name;

When everybody said my poetry was lame and I’d never make it one day;

You still stuck around and never cared about what people had to say;

You told me I’ve got a gift from up above;

That I’ll change the world one day, you told me never to give up;

 

You were my biggest fan before I ever reached the world’s stage;

So I always told myself If I make it someday;

You’ll be the first one by my side;

Cause without you I wouldn’t want the spotlight;

 

People always judged us in our younger days;

Said we were bound to fail;

But those same people are the one’s who now hang onto every word I say;

Luckily I’ve lived long enough to spot the fakes;

 

Thank you for always being the you God made;

Even if at times you hated your silent ways;

If you ever changed who you really were we wouldn’t have been best friends today;

And I’d have ended my life, you are the reason I never chose to go that way;

 

Zano, you are more than just a friend, you are a brother to me;

Even though I’m no longer around like I used to be;

In my heart you are always close;

You are the best thing God did, for you I thank Him the most;

 

Do you remember the first poem I ever wrote;

It was to thank you for always being my friend;

“You are like the brother I never had, I wish I met you sooner maybe then my life wouldn’t have turned out this bad”, You always loved that one my friend;

So thank you for being there even when I hurt you so;

 

Thank you for never walking away or letting go;

Thank you for being there in good times and bad;

You are the best friend I ever had;

I thank God He made you, you might not mean much to other people;

 

But my friend you still mean more than this world to me.

 

You Said

Nigga you said you’d never leave my side;

Then why am I here alone speaking on this cold mic;

Telling those in front of me about the best times of your life;

I shouldn’t be doing this alone but now I’m forced too since you died;

 

Tears are rolling down my cheeks as I remember our good times;

I’m a man of many words yet this is so hard for me to explain;

My best friend passed and even though it wasn’t my fault,nigga I feel blamed;

You were always there my nigga and I never thought that would change;

 

I’m watching your mamma weep;

You always said she was the only reason you had to breathe;

I wish I was in Heaven now with you so I wasn’t forced to speak;

You always asked me to talk if you ever die before me;

 

My nigga, yes I admit I always agreed;

But I’m lost for words and my tears are blurring my written speech;

I never thought that this day would come;

That I’d have to live without you like the night does without the sun;

 

Regrets fill my mind as I remember the times when I never appreciated your presence;

How I wish I could take them back now that I’ve learnt about common sense;

You were always there when I had no one;

Now here I am again all alone;

 

I wish Heaven had a hotline;

So I could call you from time to time;

Or God could swap my gaurdian angel and make that guardian angel you;

Cause nobody else knew me like you knew me;

 

And as the service ends and everybody leaves;

I know that my pain will never fade and I’ll never find peace;

So I’ll pray to God that one day when it’s my time and I go;

That He sends you to come and fetch my soul;

 

Smokey Skies

Smokey skies
No definite shape
The clouds are without form
Even the stars
I can see it, even though my senses are numb …but yet
I can feel,
I can smell.
The strange smell of lust filtering through the air
And I can hear
The muttered sound that escapes from deep within him
Moaning and groaning words I do not want to hear
Sounds coming from a beast
I cannot escape them
The sound of moisture
The sound of his flesh pounding into mine…It’s so overwhelming .My God …my God why have You forsaken me !
Then there is the distant sound of someone crying
By the wetness on my face that must be me
But dear Lord how can it be
I counted a thousand stars or more
And yet the end is not in sight
Then there is the pain
That must be my soul being ripped from me
Leaving a deep gashing wound
In my heart, or is the pain between my legs
Lord he is so strong, the ground so cold
The world starts to move as he goes faster
Faster and faster he goes
I stopped counting the stars, suddenly they are to distant
I’m dead and alive at the same time
My heart stopped pounding and as he rises
It started to fall
Down, down…down
Below the dust of the earth
To join up with dignity and self respect and hope
And me…
