Heartbreak City

Next Stop Heartbreak City, this will be the last stop all passengers must disembark the vehicle

Hello I’d like to welcome you

To Heartbreak City

Got the moniker of mayor

Elected head of all committees 

We haven’t talked in a while

It’s just I been kind of busy

I need some distance from Ole Miss

I might head down to Mississippi

I just need to hear you say

That you’re missing this hippie

Right now my pockets are on skinny 

But I’m going to make a billion off of this penny

Burden of success is really heavy

For all the times that I’ve fallen

Know I’ve gotten up plenty 

With the lessons that I’ve learned

My mind’s on the edge of deadly

She’s the only one

That makes my heart so unsteady

Well if enlightenment’s the goal

Than the ganja the key

I just need you to love me

Know I’m begging you please 

But little did I know

Your expertise was being an extra tease 

You’re the reason why

I have a heartbreaking degree 

To put my heart at ease

I need a love me back guarantee

I mean there might be fish inside the sea

But I can’t even swim 

Maybe it’s time to switch it up

Trim it up & I’ll hit the gym

Love knocked me down

With one left to the chin 

But with these tattoos on my skin 

I’m the answer to your wish

Aptly known as a Jinn 

Next exit’s heartbreak city

Would you like to come in?

Great man absolutely astonishing and the flow. Most importantly came from the heart. Keep being awesome sincere poet to another you have a gift to connect with your enlightenment and share it with the world. God Bless man. keep writing sincerely your friend in poetry and life. P.S That one lyric " Make a billon off this penny " and so many other lines are provoking.
