~Remember Me~

DeWayne Terrance King II

June 10, 1992 - November 7, 2010

This world is full of many different things

But never underestimate the tragedies it may bring

Life will present many different paths

Misgivings, frustrations and mishaps

The wrong route will present itself a million times

So let your conscious ring like wind chimes and choose to shine

Your feet will get tired and you will want to take the short route

Never take it, for when you do trouble can come about

Nothing is easy in this life you will see

So when you are down, remember me

Don’t let the world fill your heart with hate

Demonstrate an escape by carrying faith

Seek GOD and allow him to choose your destiny

Don’t let the world blind you so you cannot see the iniquities

Think of the good instilled inside of you

And it will give you what you need to make it through

Think of all the memories we had and be glad

For life allowed the good to outweigh the bad

Think of all the love I gave before my soul was set free

Carry it inside of your heart, and remember me

Hold It Down Until We Get There

WORDS

Pull the trigger, shoot me as I run

From the phrases ricocheting from your mouth like a loaded gun

So you say I am nothing, nor will I ever be

Worthless and I am no one is how you just defined me

Take my sanity, toss it to the ground

From the sound of vowels and constanants transformed to nouns

WORDS

A tainted token of a spoken mass of negativity that grows

With pain so unbearable so, think as you let them flow

From your mouth, they scar, it is a proven fact

That once said you can never retrieve them to take back
Words are like a clock spoken every second on the hour
Be cautious they are deadly and holds so much power
