INNOCENT THOUGHTS OF A GUILTY MAN

"I meant to love you" he said, as he stared in her eyes. It was his moment of truth to see through all of the lies, A beautiful lie, for him to lie next to someone so beautiful These illusions that we've created in our mind look what they do to you. We knew it couldn't work but yet we spent the time to work it, We knew we'd never perfect it but yet we hoped it could be perfect. Was it worth it? Yes indeed, every minute we spend. Who's to say it's not real even though we playing pretend? But even when you pretending you still know that there's an ending, Your heart wasn't available for purchase, so I was only renting. And times up, the door to your heart has a notice of eviction. And it's not really a surprise because I created this prediction. I'm no good for you, and I can see now that you know that. I'm no good for me either, but there's no way I can go back. A cursed soul with a haunted heart is never easy to love...

Me and all my friends we no fall in love, We just do the drugs and go out to the club. Wildin' in the Uber we might tear it up, We hunting for the girls who like to give it up. Macking in the bar you know how we do. And we like some local stars they all know my crew. What's up girl? What's your name? Where you from? What it do? Yeah I've had a couple drinks, okay I've had more than few. Summertime in L.A. it's summertime in the city And they wearing booty shorts and tank tops looking pretty Tight sundresses and sports bras it's a parade of tig o bitties And she smiling at your boy, yeah I think she wanna get with me. OMG OMG side boob falling out her shirt, LOL LOL all that ass that's in her skirt. I'm a have to go and flirt, I'm a have to put in work. I'm a buy a couple shots, let em know what I am worth. Let's go party at the crib, there's a party at the crib. Go and get them girls right there, we gon' show e...

I can't even explain how much you be on my mind, You probably think it's never cause I never give you time, And I never have the time, that's me usually lying, Cause I'm lying in the bed next to some chick and I'm lying. Talking bout all the places to see, all the things we can do, Knowing that all of these things I'd rather be doing with you. But she ain't hit me up so I ain't hitting her up neither, It's like I need you to give me purpose, feeling like Justin Bieber. Staring at your number in my phone like I might delete her, But I might get drunk and lonely and I'll know I need her. Missed call, missed call, I see them but I'm sorry, It's summer time in Cali' and I'm somewhere at the after party, We're we supposed to Skype today? Damn was that today? But I'm passed out on the couch because I drank the night away. And just when you get too far away where you try and leave me, I reel you back in with good...

The anticipation had been building in the last few days before we were all together again. It's amazing how quickly life goes by and how much you don't realize you miss in the lives of others. Facebook can never really keep you in touch with someone like a good conversation. And even in the dying age of personal communication, time well spent in person with a friend is still one of the more priceless things you can share. This trip, started like all the ones before, with handshakes and hugs, smiles and laughs, and the warming embrace of old friends as we arrived one by one into L.A.X. "How you been man", we asked as if we didn't chat everyday online? But to have a face to the words was comforting, to be able to see the happiness of their expression. We were a blessed group of friends who had the freedom to make a trip amongst all the crazy. After all that's what it's really about, being able to take the time away from it all, and take a moment to b...

Charles Hamilton said "there ain't nothing like a Brooklyn girl" I guess that's true when all you know is Cookman girls And your body so southern, but your attitude north, And I'm living out west, she'll have me changing my course But of course, I try to play it cool to all the others Cause you know how it goes when you playing distant lovers I call her Miss five five, I call her Miss green eyes I call her Miss everything, everything but mine But all good in due time, I know that I'm due time And I know that she know that if I go I'm a do mine Daydreaming about her, oh what a beautiful life To get lost in them curls, oh what a beautiful night. Spend our summers in Brooklyn, and our winters in Venice LA sunshine, pouring right through are windows Walks through central park, skating Venice boardwalk Shopping in Soho, or Universal Citywalk Life is love, and love is a dream Ain't nothing like a Brooklyn girl, I hope you know what I ...
