rest your head on my chest and listen to my heart beat 

a sorrowfully solipsistic sentiment sent straight through me

in between the needing and feeding of our egos we exist

not for breeding but misleading each other through clenched fists
 
I subsist on your dichotomy, your light and your dark

your emptiness is now a part of me, your lust is a lark

and my love is a farce to you, you treat it as such

don't need a reason to be with you, i just think too much

maybe I'll sleep with your enemy just to make you jealous

since you're so busy with those faux-intellectual fellas

faux-erudite, you know I might, be one of them

but I know how to turn it off and just bullshit with my friends

see I can be what you want me to be, just pick and choose

I ain't complaining, just waiting for you to tie my noose

then climb the tree and hang me up, we're making front page news

exclusive, abusiveness, excuse me miss, how rude

just treat me like another one of the brothers that you don't 

wanna love, I'll go into my slumber and come out when I'm 

feeling above and beyond it all, patiently waiting for your call

but when i answer i just stammer and stall, alcohol

and loud smoke cloud my vision at times

i may be living on a cloud but its far from cloud nine

i see myself as waiting in line for my chance to shine

but y'all don't see me at all, I'm in the cut, I'm hard to find

and if you're divine don't mind me I'm just rhyming and 

trying to get mine and find some peace of mind, it's fine

it's all good, i'm just mugging for the cameras

attention please, no flash photography

know what they say bout me? limitless potential 

but they still waiting to see, cause i got minimal credentials

my own worst enemy, won't you please set me free

rest your head on my chest and listen to my bleeding heart

beat
