first of all, Eminem killed this more than i ever will. he is one of my favorite poets and a huge influence on my style. check out my rendition of his deeply personal classic! feedback much appreciated, if you have music of your own, feel free to share!
Petey Lee - Mockingbird (free verse) - YouTube
peace & respect
*Lyrics*
I'm finally moving on in my heart not just my mind/
The pain is gone with every dawn as i take part and watch it rise/
I can see your eyes, cold as ice, freeze me til i crystallize/
Sometimes we bleed inside just to know we're still alive/
But i revived after i died, yet i was tied down by regret/
That sinking feeling when you're thinking of all the things we ever said/
I was laying in bed with memories replaying in my head/
And only God was by my side so i chose to put Him first instead!/
We broke bread til i was fed then our relationship began/
When i put my plans in His hands and became a better man/
Please understand that because i've loved you so/
I had to let you go for us to grow like a rose underneath the snow/
Cause we were so outta control, like two birds in a cage/
Young & crazed and full of rage, your smile set my world ablaze/
Our lips would graze as hips engage, you were afraid that things would change/
From honeymoon to break up stage, i carry scars that'll never fade/
At any rate, i had to recreate myself or detonate/
And fight for this life that i elevate for i'm really not the type to wait for fate/
When i make a mistake, then i innovate, no stressing just progression
Cause there's always a lesson learned from every failure and rejection!/
You question my profession but my fans believe i'll make it/
I may not be a doctor yet i've always worked with patients (patience)
I'm often imitated tho they can never replicate it/
I'm too creative in my spaceship as i sabotage the matrix!
