King Bacon Mar 2016
He packed his desire to remain
His state of transforming himself
Into the man that he dreamed of
And has not achieved

He said good-bye with a grimace disguised as a smile
And supplicated to his crucified God on the mantelpiece
For the protection of his loved ones

And he broke through the border
As he could

If the pale moon slips
Through any cornice
Without any permission
Why does el mojado need
To show with visas
That he is not of Neptune?

El mojado has the desire to dry off
El mojado is wet because of the tears that nostalgia evokes
El mojado, the one without documentation
Loads the packages that the legal would not load
Not even when forced

The torment of a piece of paper has turned him into a fugitive
And he is not from here because his name does not appear in the files
Nor is he from there because he went away

If the pale moon slips
Through any cornice
Without any permission
Why does el mojado need
To show with visas
That he is not of Neptune?

El Mojado
He knows your truth through lies
He knows anxiety through sadness
Of seeing a freeway and dreaming of the path
That leads to your house

El Mojado
Wet from so much weeping
Knowing that in some place
Waits a kiss taking a break
Since the day on which you left

If the pale moon slips
Through any cornice
Without any permission
Why does el mojado need
To show with visas
That he is not of Neptune?

If the universal visa is issued
On the day that we are born
And it expires upon death
Why do they persecute you, el mojado
If the consul of the heavens
Already gave you permission?
Ricardo Arjona

This is for you….

She’s like my favorite poem over a K West beat.
Make me want to hit repeat, every time I hear her speak.
Messing up the entropy, whenever she is next to me.
I swear when our lips touch I ******* favorite poetry,
and your two cents is all you have to spend on me.
A greater understanding of foundation, you’re so smart for me.
Baby what you do to me?
You got me feelin' you,
cuz recently all I talk about is just you and me.

Your on my mind 24/7 kind of rhyme scheme,
Every song I write is a new reason you should love me!
See before I met you,  
all I talk about was politics the problem is
I never got the logic from the opposite you offered it.
Why do I sing I love you?
If a card can say the same thing.
What if I had words that always made you dance and sing
cuz listen how you make me feel,
I know is something bigger,
I’m vulnerable
and I’m waiting for your hugs later like…

l love like this
I never knew I could love like this  
It must be love if I feel like this
I never knew I could love like this  
l love like this
I never knew I could love like this  
It must be love if I feel like this

We are all here for a reason on a particular path
You don't need a curriculum to know that you are part of the math
Cats think I'm delirious, but I'm so **** serious
That's why I expose my soul to the globe, the world
I'm trying to make it better for these little boys and girls
I'm not just another individual, my spirit is a part of this
That's why I get spiritual, but I get my hymns from Him
So it's not me, it's He that's lyrical
I'm not a miracle, I'm a heaven-sent instrument
My rhythmatic regimen navigates melodic notes for your soul and your mental
That's why I'm instrumental
Vibrations is what I'm into
Yeah, I need my loot by rent day
But that is not what gives me the heart of Kunte Kinte
I'm tryina give us "us free" like Cinque
I can't stop, that's why I'm hot
Determination, dedication, motivation
I'm talking to you, my many inspirations
When I say I can't, let you or self down
If I were of the highest cliff, on the highest riff
And you slipped off the side and clinched on to your life in my grip
I would never, ever let you down
And when these words are found
Let it been known that God's penmanship has been signed with a language called love
That's why my breath is felt by the deaf
And why my words are heard and confined to the ears of the blind
I, too, dream in color and in rhyme
So I guess I'm one of a kind in a full house
Cuz whenever I open my heart, my soul, or my mouth
A touch of God reigns out

mama used to tell me, used to tell me...

I hope you never have to make it on your own,
but if you learn to love yourself you’ll never be alone,
I hope you work your hardest to achieve your dreams,
and I hope one day you’ll realize what you meant to me,
Go find out who’s out there for you and let me know
love her and fill her mind body spirit with your soul
and when you get it give thanks, and pray to God.
and remember one thing, remember one thing
One girl can change your world
One girl can change your world
One girl can change your world
One girl can change your world

All I..
All I ever wanted was for someone to make me feel fantastic
Imagine one day God made you have it, a bad chick.
I remember those days back in that grimy mattress
who would of thought I would of made an attachment
i’m talking about dreaming so hard it seemed like rest day
you know?
Putting those dreams in the bag, trash day.
you came out of nowhere my imagination crash bae
even better than any girl described by kanye
I might speed up with energy but then I crash
One day i’ll get you that car you’ve always wanted, be my gas
Look
Think about it
Close your eyes
Dream about it
Tell your Family about it
Let’s make this universe ours tell the world about it,
Success is on its way, I can see it in the distance
If heaven was next to you I wouldn’t see any difference
There was one opportunity i’m glad I didn’t miss it
Lonely in this world trying to find life’s mission
Now i’m walking with this girl in the heart of the mission  

I hope you never have to make it on your own,
but if you learn to love yourself you’ll never be alone,
I hope you work your hardest to achieve your dreams,
and I hope one day you’ll realize what you meant to me,
Go find out who’s out there for you and let me know
love her and fill her mind body spirit with your soul
and when you get it give thanks, and pray to God.
and remember one thing, remember one thing
One girl can change your world
One girl can change your world
One girl can change your world
One girl can change your world

My mama told me, “You’ll find your half orange on the right hour”
The time rang, I had to save her from the clock tower,
Sat next to her, we share close stories and we laughed,
But I told her I would always tell her anything if she asked
She asked,  “Do you really love me, like you say”
I told her, “ I promise to say I love you everyday”
we’ll go and explore the world from bay to bay
growing up without anything you always have to extra try
and I wanna be with you while i’m alive,
Teach me the basic thing of life like how to drive
Let’s raise the cutest kids and let’s do it right
Make sure your next to me when I love, but also when I cry
Let’s get old and play together ‘till we die
and hold my hand God will teach us how to fly
Since I met you I knew you were always an angel in disguise (in the sky)
And with you I will never have to say goodbye

I hope you never have to make it on your own,
but if you learn to love yourself you’ll never be alone,
I hope you work your hardest to achieve your dreams,
and I hope one day you’ll realize what you meant to me,
Go find out who’s out there for you and let me know
love her and fill her mind body spirit with your soul
and when you get it give thanks, and pray to God.
and remember one thing, remember one thing
One girl can change your world
One girl can change your world
One girl can change your world
One girl can change your world
Thank you for always loving me and changing my world <3

Feels like a chorus song how surrendered you render my worries
Ebbs away words once written in sand we band and
Adulthood turns less intimidating
Restless I wish to find you near or hear your voice but
Lacking your presence find peace in prayer, asking 'Is God fair?'
Endlessly encouraging me not to despair I'm aware that
Solitude is not quite alone, without being shown if I can trust in the
Spirit which sees more clearly than eyes who is here

I love, therefore whom shall I fear?

Love is patient and it is kind.

It only wants what is it's own
And not what belongs to someone else.

It admires not itself but
What is worthy in others.

It is honest but softens the edges
Of harsher words and harsher truths.

It is selfless, compassionate, and
Forgives before a wrong can be
Perceived or remembered for the very first time.

It protects like a raincoat,
Or a ferocious mother bear, and hopes
Like an SOS signal.

It is as persistent as the exertion
Of gravity and as constant as the
Existence of energy.


If I had the entire world in my hands or let myself burn at the stake for you but had not love...

Then I would be nothing.
for someone I love more than bacon.

What if I told you that your god is dead?
that supply and demand, economic forces
we trust more than the laws of physics
are not supplemented by a caring, Invisible hand?

That the holy scriptures, thin, green pages
in between the folds of a wallet
are no more valueable than this gum wrapper
blowing in the wind
Unless we all BELIEVE otherwise

Adam Smith said
"Many will enter, but few will win" -cite
What will give you a sense of purpose
or security when you try to sleep at night?

Everyone hope in the American Dream!
a capitalistic kushion to save you in your time of need
made of vapor to catch you when the stocks are falling
its appalling this heaven of prosperity
that depends on consuming more and more of the earth

Listen to The Economist's sermon
Watch how he reads the tea leaves
Will the Fed raise the interest rates this year?
We throw the dice and say our prayers.

All things work together for good
For those who love it.

Welcome to the worship of Mammon.
The question is not "are you are religious?" The question is "What do you have faith in?"
