about
i could never pretend to know how you felt, but i know what it feels like. this is in your memory; we fight so no one else has to. thank you for being the beautiful person you were and always will be in our hearts, as we say your name in solace, or in song.
lyrics
for Toyin; rest in Power.
would it be so ironic to have an innocent
and take her breath away?
wounded and catatonic, dead on a Saturday
after i had my way--
who knew the human spirit is so resilient--
she fuckin ran away.
i knew i had to chase her, so young and brilliant;
she had so much to say.
toying around with a nineteen,
i'll let her stay, you know what i mean:
the only way i'll get what i need.
the dummy trusts me?
little girl, so fuckin naive,
saying no ain't gonna stop me.
the only way i'll get what i need...
her name is so iconic, just like an incident
of someone under a knee.
bluecoats are so moronic; they wouldn't give a shit.
she should be thanking me.
a jail in Orange County, thinking of her again;
two counts of battery.
she tried to tell her family but nothing came of it.
her fight was flattering.
