And She Gets The Guy (Year+ Old)

And She Gets The Guy (Year+ Old)

A Poem by Rufio The Jedi

 

 

Damn, there he goes, he has to though, it has to show, f**k it, cause he needs to know, here he starts to come, so it’s now her time to go……

 

Now I know I’m not the flyest

But I’m convinced to try this

I’ve just dropped out of school

So they say I’m not the brightest

I can’t see my future

So I guess they call me sightless

They label me as prude

Cause my jeans are not the tightest

I listen to hip-hop, and a little bit of reggae

Some old R&B, and hair bands from the 80’s

I like originality, and think chuck tailors are overrated

Cool when they came out

But now they’re kinda dated

Never wronged anyone

But still I’m f*****g hated

Suicide, I debate it

I swear, me and Monroe are related

I’m somewhat self-conscious

But not afraid to let you know

I still have my baby blanket

But I’m not ready to let it go

I’m actually embarrassed I told you though…

I’ve got one goal in life

It’s that, I got to be the realest

Feelings, I’ll never conceal it

Pay no mind, I let them bill it

Now I know I’m not that flashy

But I just can’t watch you past me

All I need is a maybe or, a might be

Is it possible, you see, what I see

Now that I think about it

I think I’m wasting your time

Sorry, my thoughts, should have stayed mine

Go ahead and decline

 

And then she walked from me, all she wanted was for two individuals to become a we, which just left one choice for me, it was obvious we were meant to be

 

Well you might not be the flyest

But I swear you are the finest

We can lose our past behind us

And it’ll never have to find us

And I know some people hate you

But it’s just because they ain’t you

Damn, it would be cool to date you

Please, let nothing ever sedate you

Suicide

Yea, I thought the same

Would be dead, if I knew to aim

Keep it to myself

Cause I’m somewhat ashamed

But for some reason

You can numb the pain

& I got a stuffed bear

His name is plainly Teddy

I wanna let him go

But I’m far away from ready

And this popular s**t, is so overrated

Honestly, only a couple girls I’ve dated

I swear this pressure has me jaded

And since you say you’re the realest

Then it’s real recognize real

I gotta say it’s surreal

For you to feel what I feel

And I hate trends too

It’s like the attack of the clones

Come & go like cellular phones

One thing I’ll never condone

But it’s Bonnie and Clyde

Die with you by my side

Therefore death due us part

As long as you can abide

Life’s a rollercoaster

So is you down for the ride?

Kamikaze if you switch sides

So are we on the same track

Or do our visions collide?

I wear my heart on sleeves

But it bleeds through my hands

If you can’t understand

I mean, they beat like the band

So hold them while I ask

Can I be your man?

I really loved this. it was like a view into this boys mind. The rhyming made it flow perfectly and it was pretty witty too. Hahaha. simply awesome. I liked the parts about his teddy or blanket and not ready to let go. The ending was prefect as well. I really liked how this person was so honest about themselves. Great!

That was great. I'm a huge fan of Lupe and that gave me a whole new vision of the song

This was dope!!! You take me to Lupe Fiasco or the Pharcyde with this! Great flow, clever, witty, and real! I love the visuals and the one-liners! How you switch it from him to her was dope as well!

I think this would sound awesome read out loud, there is such a beat behind every line.
I also like the way you set it up as 2 parts, and it's just so chill, and sounds very real, not fake at all.

Did you write both parts??
Like call and response?
It was great regardless.
