Poetry 101

Nope, this is not a lecture on how to write POETEY! RAP as you know it is derived from a combined word “Rhythm and Poetry”. Below is a short one I’m planning to put into music...let the Rhythm fuse with the Poetry.

[Verse 1]

Is it safe to say " That I love you?"

If I give you my heart will you love me?

If I share you this feels will you hurt me?

' way you cool down my pressure, dey hot me

I don hear couple things, enough from your homies

24/7 all day like they kobe

Ears pinned down like the Old Gs

And the sound of these bull is like shit to me

All of the talk wey dem talk na just commentaries

High on your love dem be calling the pharmacy

Spiritual being not a match for the Pharisee

Look at me winning But that's coz the far I see

Yeah

They said never bother yourself

But me, I am mad over you

I heard its a waste of my time

Ogbeni its too late I'm over the moon
