Title: Girl, it's about you....
Genre: Pop culture
Verse 1
You are beautiful
So amazing and wonderful
Your stunning looks are so thoughtful
Your admirable character is really colorful
I admire how your keep your body careful
Liking how you can't stand a fool
That's not being prideful
Enjoying your being prayerful
I know it's avoiding being spiritually fearful
Verse 2
I love you
It's all I see about you
You are all I see in view
I chose to see you in the ladies' queue
We will be together, forever when it's due
For now, I'm working out our future few
You are just the chosen few
To light up the men's clue
As to what how a woman's love can be an everyday new
Verse 3
Your smile is my inspiration
That encouragement from you is my motivation
You cuddle is my habitation
Your support is my appreciation
With your advice, I'm others' imitation
Your intelligence is my direction
Your independence catches my attention
Despise our quarrels, there's hardly any lingering fiction
What you say and mean are nonfiction
Verse 4
With you by my side, I can make my beat
The world will know you're my hit
When I'm with you, I see no defeat
Being with you, I always rise to my feet
As a huge influence, I put on the best of life's kit
Seen as a healthy meat, you're always what I love to eat
Because you are a good washer, that's my I'm neat
Hearing you alone makes me develop more wits
You're my health: that's why I'm fit
Verse 5
You are truly my one and only
That's why I'm never lonely
Your company makes me lively
It amazes me how you always look so lovely
Friends told me they saw another man with you lately
I decided to act a little childishly
But you made me realize how your words are guided faithfully
When I set my eyes on you, the chemistry is timely
Always treating me and my peeps kindly
Girl, it's about you...

Title : What happened?
Genre: RNB
Chorus
How Come?
As I set out, I met this young boy, all alone
His face looked pale, reminding me when I was home alone
I looked at him in pity, and was led to ask him a question
"Why are you seated all alone", I asked in compassion
He stared at me, "I don't know"
I was surprised. So I asked, "how old are you"?
"Seven" The boy answered
"What about your parents" I inquired
"They left me because they couldn't pay their rent"!
I was surprised when I heard him say that
The boy was folding his arms looking angry, even at heart
I stared at him, turning my head to the sides
Wondering, "why should he be exposed to such tides?
He looked at me, while seated, asking "who are you"?
I warmly answered, " I'm the grown version of you"
He frees his hands, excited. "That's great" he said
"Where did you stay before your dad and mom left you?" I asked
To my surprise, he answered, "I don't know"
He looked so indifferent.
I didn't get what he meant
So, I asked, "What do you mean"
His hands were pointing upwards. "I don't know".
He looked at me so angrily
I had to treat the situation gently
I chuckled, requesting "Have you eaten?"
The boy said "No!"
He stood this time in an akimbo manner.
"Can I take you to my place to give you some food"? I suggested
"I don't wanna eat!", he boy declined.
"Okay, do you mind coming to my place to stay?"
He answered "No"
"Why?" I wondered.
" My parents told me not to do anything with strangers!"
"Wow! But they left you all alone!"
"Yes...But I love them as my parents!" He answered in confidence.
I had to ensure I found a means to save him from the mess
Before I reported the case to the Children's Home Authority,
I began ruminating over the conversation with the young boy.
I asked, "How come?"
Long story short: The young boy has grown into an full adult, doing well for himself!

Title: What's life
Genre: Spoken word
Chorus
What's Life(4ce)
Verse 1
I began to wonder
Should I ponder?
The thought gets harder
Even father
As I work on it further,
Could such a thought be at present better
Or should one forget about it sooner
Or think about it later?
It's confusing rather
As a child, I asked my father
He told me "life is reacher and reacher"
Didn't understand how that would matter
So I asked my mother
She said " life is a matter that's heavier"
That understanding wasn't easier
But I remained calmer
Until I grew older
To ask "What's life"?
Chorus
What''s Life(4CE)
Verse 2
I heard people told me:
Life is a game;
Always make sure to reach your aim
Life is a playground
Remember your background
Life is a dream
Pursue without a dim
Life is a competition
Bring out your best in that situation
Life is a prize
Be wise paying the price
Life is an opportunity
To mess with its availability
Life is a lesson
Use your reason
Still in the mood of learning I asked
"What's life"?
Verse 3
As I grew in age,
I realized:
Life is a contradiction
A blessing and a curse
An abundance and a scarcity
A purpose and vanity
A truth and a lie
A reality and an illusion
A purpose and an emptiness
A journey and conundrum
A thing of pain and gain
An incidence and a reflection
I looked inwards,
Still not satisfied
I delved into more inquiry
What I got made me not worry
"Life's what you make of it" I read in a hurry
But still asking
WHAT'S LIFE!
Chorus
What's life (4ce)
