This Demon Haunted Town

I just felt like writing a rap song. Yeah... I know...

Born to do it
Yet not at the right time
Told to just screw it
cuz I ain't ever gonna get mine

With words I conjure from the deep subconscious
primordial archetypes that walk among us
Forced to remain part of the proletariat class
Never to attain; forever stuck at this impasse

Is it my honesty that's keepin' me down?
Should I flow liquefied crystals
and just BE that clown?
Nah, I launch poetic missiles

in this Demon Haunted town
This Demon Haunted town

I have talent and skills
but not the contacts
Can't pay the bills
without those contracts

Light the sable brightness, with Spirit ascendant
This is my life. Yes! And they ain't gonna end it
Must do this without mendacity
Trust and hold on to my veracity

The devil you know robs, kills and destroys
and wants to see me join him
The angels I know made me an envoy
not subject to a coward's whim

In this demon haunted town
This demon haunted town

I have glorious dreams
and I'm dead serious
to spit mind mangling memes
that lay low the imperious

Those without art, have bartered their soul
They have a head start and they're in control
What they don't understand, is it amounts to nothing
In the Kingdom of man, people are always fronting

The difference between what you will or won't eat
is just about three days
The pampered are just meat on the street
and I am not amazed

in this Demon haunted town
This demon haunted town

Whoever has the gold, makes the rules
That's what they say
When I've constructed my tools
I will have my day

Those hurts that they put down to stultify
won't be met with an eye for an eye
It does no good to be vindictive
Emotion filled logic is indicative

of acerbic malevolence
that leaves you putrid
Losing all relevance
Can't be that stupid

In this demon haunted town
This demon haunted town

But if I should ever change my mind
I'll go to the crossroads and stack the right sign
And still not care for what they got
cuz if I need it-- a mother-f@<ker get shot

in this demon haunted town

So watch who you step on
while gettin' your rep on
because your actions might impel
me to unleash hell

in this demon haunted town

Desperate people do desperate things

in this demon haunted town

Author's Note

Yeah... It's total rubbish but I had to write something and this came out. I should have saved the title for something cool involving Carl Sagan...

[Searching 4 Serenity]

I think there is one word that sums up this whole piece and that is malevolence. Absolutely love it.

[Judy Ponceby]

well rubbish or not in your opinion, still has great rhythm and rhyme. Stark imagery. Like the repetition of demon haunted town.

[Plagued Monumentally]

I love the rhyming you did in this piece. I was hoping for more of your outstanding vocabulary, but thats okay. Your rhyming scheme was all over the place, and thats what I loved about it. You always have a way to get my imagination flowing when I'm suffering from intense writers block. I don't know how you do it! Anyways, this read more like a poem than a rap, but thats probably because I'm used to you writing rap. xD

I loved this! I don't know why, but it just made me think about it for a second afterwards. Can someone say talent? Because you definitely have it.

[Misty Blue Eyes]

i agree with kenneth hun you did an outstanding job...

[Kenneth The Poet]

Nice piece of work for being rubbish. Your rhyming ability suffers from no lack of agility.
