"Damaged Goods" ((freestyle))

Look Mista!
Rollin' in Molasses, Blackberry 
Facing
Identical circumstances as eye did last January
His world hurts like "Losing Isiah" like Halle Berry
Executive Decision?
Nawh, faith evaporatin' losin' his religion, holed in like a pigeon
Feelin' caged like bright yellow twin canaries
Did a whole damn year like Mary
J Blige
Pucker up, kiss my ass!
Kiss da kissing games goodbye, no Hi-five!

Life on pause, "Short Circuit" like Johnny 5
Might as well be dead
Can't remember last time eye felt alive 
Piano wit no keys
Lost my will to drive
Shine scribbled notebooks so you could see inside 
Damaged goods, Damaged pride, Damn it! I
Can't re-stake my claim in da beholder's eye
When there's no love you slowly die, word to da Most High

Goin' blind like Ray, eye can't see da sky
Rain mist, Black fist
No Power!
Sand runnin' out da hour glass every hour
Moments devoured
Screams showered like echo's of a heinous villain
No man made penicillin for da pain I'm wieldin'
Da picture dat eye paint on pads dries fast like acrylic so you gotta feel it!
Notched wit a small window
Don't miss da ceilin'

Opportunities gone, passed by em' on da pharcyde like cars peelin'
New Jersey Drive skid marks on dem streets skillet
Gilded?
Nope!
What he jot on pages, worth more then shillings 
From what dis artist on da canvas is concealin'
Wit so much is givin', so much is demanded
Tryna draw strength from close companions
Instead of aimin' cannons, chrome at his dome in a lonely panic
Pulse frantic!
Heart gigantic, wit a huge hole da size of da Grand Canyon
To supplement for da agony, he tried to cram it
Wit positive thinkin', to negate da negative antics 
Flesh n spirit at a very slight disadvantage
When da Lord bring you to ya knees n you get reprimanded
Ya humbleness becomes EXpanded!
Repentin' for ya sins to be extracted, when you was too caught up in da madness couldn't see pass distractions

Brain cells

Stymied underneath da hood, in da hood we damaged goods surrounded by surroundings in our own freakin' neighborhoods 
Frozen where time stood
Same schematics once you line up da future graphics
This ain't a past habit
This somethin' all relate to, when we finally take da masks off n ya self faces you
Nothin' new
Line up da graph, you see da traces too!
Attitude reflect leadership n we definitely in need of it
And if you reading this n you hatin', you can eat a dick!
I'm a breath of fresh air yo!, so let me breathe a bit

Most of you cats is fic
Probably don't even do half of da stuff you spit
Behind a keyboard talkin' tough like Usher caught up "In The Mix"
Far from reality, where da pliers? get a grip
My fortress is embodied of that of a grown man when I'm eyeing this
When I speak, It's from a perspective of what I'm out here really livin' kid, dealin' wit
Don't gotta harp on what I keep Tuck like Justin close to me like a women to a man's rib
Real recognize real like deez bars behind da steel
One Kiss from a rose on ya grave, da casket Seal
Hawk
On screens, guts spilled, I'm here to build 
Rock out
N if you can't roll wit dat, fuck how you bastards feel!
My lyrics touch nerves, appease to da mass appeal
"Poetic Shine"
He his own theater, wit a lot to reveal
Check discographies fam, I'm a rappin' reel!
A rabid dog like Cujo off da chain dat a sic em' get em'! lyrically bite yo' head off fo' real
I spent years buildin' up my brand n my shield 
Like my "Poorhouse" affiliates who put in work, stayed true to da craft n never sold dey soul for no amount of bills
Enemy of da state, head for da hills
My people still brushin' wit da fire in my neck of da woods
Boxed in  
Damaged Goods!....

"Lyrics To Da Message" ((freestyle))"

It's funny how some don't even care about lyrics
Da plot is da core of the spirit
Just wanna turn it up!!!
What?
They ain't listening, I'm from an era where it wasn't all about dem benjamins just metaphors n tight sentences
Pen, paper, pad story skilled filled images
Tongue flippin', bleedin' opponents til' they hemorrhagin'
Had to be nice wit da led to get penciled in
Heads spin from wicked exorcist lines
I get this weight off my chest wit furious strength, exceedin' limits goin' beyond
Wrists benchin' bars where a fast mobile signal respond
Hold on to ya seat, or grab da edge of da pine
Remember how we used to go back n forth wit a rhyme?
It ain't da same since deez corporate entities flooded da game
Real honesty riddled wit pain
Hip hop was a voice to speak out what most wouldn't even talk about
Ball dribbled off of they leg n went outta bounds
It's all watered-down listening to how it sounds
Boom-bap beats to make da gravel pound
Under ya feet
No matter if you free-styled or scribbled on sheets
It was an outlet for all to release
Let out ya inside's n harness da beast
Corrupt neighborhoods, government n police
Geez!
All they do is target our grief
Monitor our movements wit digital devices n creep
Mad years, couldn't get any sleep it's rough in dem streets
This is where we n da narrative meets
I hate da shit dat they do n don't feel it like a parapleg
This been going on ever since my ancestor's hung from a tree
Future lookin' like it's resembling da past to me
Even if you cease to resist, they still shoot you down n leave you dead in yo' piss  
Yeah!
Y'all need to start listening!
Pay attention n homage to da real lyricist's
I'm still tryna find dopeness in cats music
Where is it?
We gotta build like Egyptians did da pyramids
But when it comes to positive shit on da airwaves cats ain't hearin' it
Misguided info
I'm pointin' at my temple, open ya mental
Read it backwards, simple!
ortnI ad ot netsil n saN ekil ti "dniweR" 
Dis for all my peeps n my kin folk
I go hard when my fingers hit da keystroke
Won't let deez fake beings take what we wrote
Eye C-notes!
Leaning like the tower of Pisa 
In a minor like a Alicia
Gimme those Keys so eye can unlock da ETHER!
Dat flows throughout veins in da features
Too many decadent hiphop impediments
Shit is sickening! n Shine da medicine
My ledger is incredible to da Letterman lasting decades n late nights to all my veterans
Jugulars eye bee stingin' n severin'
Rappers need to stop fillin' kids heads wit dat garbage dat they be peddlin'
Talkin' bout how y'all be poppin "Champagne" like Evelyn 
Cars, clothes, money, n hoes
Sendin' wrong messages to da youngster's dat be at ya shows
Fuck all of dat yo!, it's about dat flow
Stayin' grounded, true to ya self cause it's an illusion when none of it's left
Da many faces of death
Ya character presides ova everything dat you chef
Cook it up, put it out n serve somethin' dat won't let us regress 

"Lyrics To Da Message" ((freestyle))" by Shawn Stare

"Changes" ((freestyle))

People up n changed on me
Clouds over my head, started rainin' down on me
No two days are da same, remember dat homie!
Fake alliances become phony
Caught up like Bokeem, in da middle like Monie

But no Love there
Once you see da dynamics then things come clear
Futile relations
Day in day out, trabajo trainin'
Emotionless
Cut-off, from ya aspirations
A heart bleedin' profusely from lacerations

Trapped in a filthy finicky foul nation
Desolate fields
Drudging towards a destination
No occupation
Searchin' self
Monastery standard evaluations

We are God's creations
But nothin' nice

Tight grip!
Our necks stay in a vice
So-called Illuminati?
Human sarifice
Killin' each other wit no regards for human life
But we see dat in inner city neighborhoods every night

Power of a dollar
Best believe you pay a price, some even pay it twice

It comes back two-fold
Ten times worse, when you sell ya soul
At da pinnacle of dat stroll
You find out when it's silent, 6 feet below!

They say if you love somethin' you should let it go
Have patience
Plant da seed n watch it grow
Eye don't know
Why I keep writin'
Somethin' inside tells me to keep fightin'
Tryin'
To right my wrongs even if eye don't understand what da Lord has goin' on

So eye soldier on, through da changes
When on da canvas, eye wanna be erased 
From da paintin'
Gotta be in my shoes to comprehend da depth of my language
Eye don't care about being famous
And I don't pay attention to critics cause a million people got opinions comin' out dey anus

Dis REAL conversation
Not a sitcom where "Everybody loves Raymond"
Things I quill go ova heads, can't be measured by a ruler
I got BIG BALLS dat can't be neutered

Amen!
Hallelujah!

And when my time is up on earth
Hope you learn somethin' from my notes to produce a better future
Maybe our children, need better tutor's
Cause it seem like we keep droppin' da ball on dat
Lost in a stupor 
So tell me, where's da teacher's dat really care about da students?
Parent's included
Who's educating who?, when our paths are parallel in angles
Side by side but meant to be a force in congruence 

"Changes" ((freestyle)) by Ra Shine McKoy

"Rappin' To Ya"

Godson 
Child of God
Pack arenas when eye enter center like da Izod
Yeah!
No iPod
Dis flow come from tape decks, dat BOOM BAP in ya basement
Tight lyrics, productions of a "Dope Beat" like Boogie Down have you goin' ape shit
I sound like nobody bro when I face lift
Kill tracks!
Unplug bodies
"Bring Em' Out" like T.I, cause they caught in da matrix
A non-reality datz just makeshift
Concoct food for thought man, bring me my apron!
Bring em' back to life like Jesus Christ
Shawn Stare
Vocals are in tune
"We Are One" like Frankie B. & Maze wit da mic

Dis my battle cry for tears dat fall from heaven skies
Dead peers
Dead scrolls
Literature n music fills a gaping hole
Like Rakim, "I Got Soul"
Don't lose yourself like Em cause datz when, I grab da wheel like K. Lamar n take "Control"
Homey tried to slide da jab but missed me wit dat tho
I never left my friend, I'm layin' right in da fold
Light up da page like a oven y'all when it's cold

Den keep it hot like da pilot fire lit on a stove
Sprinkle da seed
Watch it grow
Degrees slowly fall below
Beware of kiss of death under mistletoe's
Women camouflaged as hoe's

Datz not a good look!

Datz like a bad jux or a nice song wit a fucked up hook
People look!
My compositions a open book
If you wanna know what's inside of me, all you gotta do is read
A.D.O.R what I scribe behind da PC
I "Let It All Hang Out", like da baddest chicks cleav
age
Still ain't nothin' but a number like Chi Ali
Best believe 
Before my "Time's Up" like Jadakiss on earth n I gotta leave
Y'all gon' feel me like bible quotes passin' thru ya blood stream
Extract & intake I purify patrons like a dialysis patient
Haters failure is where eye succeed
You kidney
You kiddin me?
Get baptized in my poetry, eye cleanse thee

I'm DA MACHINE!

Eye let my pain bleed, like ferociousness of a slave peeved
And eye don't care if you've been my peeps since grade 3
If you cross me once!, I'll cut you off like gangrene
Soak it up!, let it hit yo' nugget like Jersey native
K. Faried
Potna, this is "More Than Love" like Amerie
No fee!
I do this for free, check da discography
Til' death do we part
Words n I are a nucleus like monogamy
Try to separate us, I'll divorce ya whole colony
Nuke all monstrosities cause I'm a nuclear warhead dat will destroy all ya property
Sea~gal
Eye take this seriously like I was "Under Siege", this how I breathe
Get to da root of things, extension stem to da leaves 
Don't give a shit about what you got, I'll bruise ya eg
O!
Most think it's a game?
Til' situations sneaks up on em', smack em' wit a different train of thought on dis dirty rail
Follow da trail n you can track da smell

When it rain, it hail!((HELL))

And when bones come outta closets 
((Smh)) Oh boy!, do they smell
Government got us programmed inside to da freakin' outer shell
Melon cells swelled
All da proddin', mutltiplyin', subtractin', simplifyin'
Meanwhile
Badges gettin' off, n all our children dyin'
Real talk!
Step behind da wall, observe how they walk
Companies still closing down, a lot of niggaz gettin' laid off
It's not what you know, it's who you know
Still see da pay off?
So many more dat made off just like Madoff

"Weekend at Bernie's" playin' dead wit yo' attorney 
Some don't get caught, they just neutralize da journey
But what do eye know
I'm just rappin' to ya
Straight
No plastic filter
Digest it or not
True stories lived n sewed folks, wit an angled plot
Imprisoned in bars
3 meals n a cot
Planted like a monocot
