"HOLD YA HEAD"

Funny how we parted ways
Not really cause we both had a part to play
Ya love was like Luther, I was So amazed!
At times cool den turbulence
Simple!
Plane!
I held you down thru da rain
In da bed
Made you came
You did da same
Reminiscin'
Callin' out each other names
Pinky Pinky
Lovin' how you gave me brains
Returned da favor
Ate it up
Til' ya sprouted
Like a geyser, bangin' on da headboard frame
Ice!
Whip Cream!
Hand-cuffs n Chains
But on da outer walls is where our love was stained
No trust!
Communication
Just very hurtful words
In our slang
We let it linger
Frank Ocean
Both was numb like Novacane
House became
Silent!
As we remained
Happiness
Turned to arguments, plus stress n pain
Our relationship
Suffered in da mist of other things
Soon
We didn't even have unity
Was it you?
Was it me?
"Where Did We Go Wrong?" Like Jeffrey Osborne n LTD
Guess we forget to work at it
Left gears in Cruz control like Penelope
It's hell to see!
Somebody everyday n you know dat she
Don't view you in da same capacity
When y'all first met
Dat shit stings deep inside n makes you feel worthless
You know da show is at da end of it's run
Curtains!
Den comes da flirtin'
Temptation everywhere you look is lurkin'
Come home from workin'
Who ever get there first
See each other car n keep goin'
Tears flowin'
Remain strong, too much pride to let em' know it
Like Jill Scott, try to live ya life like it's "Golden"
To da world n on stage, your a poet
But to her, you just another cat
Chasin' dreams in yo raps
She said listen here yo!, "Our bills is stacked"
Tellin' you, you can't pay lights, heat, n rent wit dat
Til' then
Dat slave nine to five is where you stay at
It's a man world
But it would be nothin' without a women or a girl black
Courtesy of James Brown
Here's comes da "Big Payback"
I hate dat!
Dis land is built on money n material things like a maybach
Most cats
Don't even know where der next meal is comin' from
Or have a place to lay dey head at
Sometimes you gotta shovel shit, bite da bullet
Take crap!
Humble ya self n try to get back
On ya feet
Learn from ya me-stakes
Pray da Lord bless you wit a rebate
A clean slate!
Cause we all had our share of tough times n heartaches
Stuck in situations like a automobile park brake
But da sun shines eventually like Pac said,
So "Hold Ya Head" n keep da faith!

"Hold Ya Head" By Ra Shine McKoy aka Shawn Stare

"RING THEE ALARM"

Eye love women
Like Clit

Like Drag-On, I flame on!

Take a nigga beat n den I drop bombs to dey song
Spit it in terms you can understand or laman
Eye know everybody don't love Shine like Raymond
But it don't matter
Cause I'm still gonna climb da ladder
Springin' daggers
Bet eye see you on da way down
Hot before June
April May clown
Hey now!
Lil' Cease
You don't wanna play around
I smash
Like Don Cheadle, make you "Crash"
Dis chopper slim ya weight fast
I'm top brass
Grandmaster
Ole skool like Caz
Illmatic like Naz,
Excuse me Nas
Like him, I do it for my precious daughters
Any emcee, I'll slaughter
Charter borders
Fly High
Wavin' at da clouds ova ocean waters
Blazin' Trails like Terry Porter
On tracks
Glide like Clyde Drexler
Don't need no gadgets like da inspecter
Shawn Stare da Mic Wrecka!
Go K-Solo man in each letter

Lyrical beretta
Fire shots to clear ya conscience, get ya whole mind together
Hot sixteen

Ken Griffey Jr. out da ballpark homerun hitter

"Ring Thee Alarm" By Shawn Stare

"LINES"

X out ya dark men
Ya won't ever catch me slippin'
I'm not for dat bull like Scottie Pippen
In n out of  lanes you might see me dippin'
I'm a ape
Flow Bananas!
Back in da day
Used to rock Bandana's
To match my gear
What it do my nig, it's Stare!
Da booth is my dragon lair
On da mic
Spit fire!
Catchin' mad bodies like Wee-Bey from da Wire
I never retire
Blow smoke to Weed out da truth bruh among deez liars 
Poorhouse!!!!
My empire
Emcee King Poet Sire!
Shine bring light to a nice cypher
Amazin' writer
4 Life!, I'm a Giant!
Lol!
Fuck da cowgirls, beagles, deadskins n forty-whiner's
Break niggaz down, fragile like some china
Brothaz, Keep ya head up on korners pitchin' white like Ralph Kiner
Movin' Keys like Alicia in her minor
Remember when I had my notes scribbled, locked in a binder
Sometimes da teacha didn't really have Shawn attention
Fist to my head
Writin' on my damn composition
Drawin' graffiti brick wallz in da classroom
Wit a homeboy patented wit adidas in da back
Wit a radio box 
Boom!
Looney how I drop tunes
Lyrics
Wax n mop rooms
Ya don wan it wit me boy
I'm past rude!
It's written all ova ya face like you went n ate some bad food
Music is da Answer like Colonel Abrams yo!, when I blast fools
I'm on da map
Ova head
Clubbin' cats
Jack Jack Jack ya body like Steve "Silk" Hurley
Crazy like Mr. Furley
"Whatz Happenin" like Shirley?
On da Freeway, I get it in early
Pedal to da metal goon
C & C Music factory
Take a long toke of deez freakin' gas fumes
I'm rad dude! 
Lynch mobs
Jack beats like Ice-Cube
Sit back relax!
Boney James
Enjoy dis jazz croon
er
Words come out fluently, I never slur
But Charlton Heston, might take a chick n ben hur
Ova
Work it like a soldier!, Ram my engine in her fender
Go long like Marino to Clayton n Dup-er
Do it like a dolphin
Den Flipp-er
Ra Shine work da middle wit such splendor
Nowadayz 
Deez ninja turtle bastards be rattin' like splinter
Alarms embedded in my mental sensor
Most dudes act like females, need to switch up dey gender
Furthermore
From da jaw
Pledge allegiance to forever kick it raw!!!
Love is a battlefield
Just like Pat Benatar
It might, even leave a scar
Like when I rock da crowd dawg n kick a bar
In my own write
Mos Def!
I'm a black star
Adapt in situations like an avatar
Weavin' racing in between lines like Nascar

"Lines" By Shawn Stare

"How My Sun Shines" ((Freestyle Inspired by my poetry affiliates Zach Turner & David "LuckyLefty" Cardenas in da L.a.b cypher))

I Keep my head up even tho I'm still smothered by da earth's grime
"Yea though I walk through da valley of da shadow of death, I'll will fear no evil"
Eye know
Just a little bit of da 23rd Psalm
But for me dat sums it up in one line
Even tho dat whole verse so serious n pertinent for all minds
Rashine was da name given by my birth moms
Even now she n others still see sumptin' special when my pen touch palms
Old to Leader of a New School
Cats still give me dap da way I Bust-A-Rhyme
Even back when I was kickin' raps beatin' on da table at lunch time
Damn!
Wish eye could hit clocks n freeze time
Rewind!
Clear up some past things da present Rashine couldn't foresee wit deez eyes
Cause mista I hear da whispers but da beat goes on
Through poetry, music, n my kids my legacy will forever live on
But right now
Tryin' to not lose my head in da smoke of da bong like cheech n chong
My soul cries out for a peaceful song
While my spirit longs to float on a higher note
I'm special when I write
I recognize my tongue has da power to kill or give life
Either way, when da pad n pencil rub together da fire ignites
It's a beautiful thing to match or surpass what some say you couldn't
Reachin' unparalleled heights
Datz how my sun shines through da darkest of nights
Some commit suicide reluctant to fight
Eye hit back wit words as well as let my actions do da talkin'
Like dead bodies in a morgue
I stay silent often
Misunderstood but choosing my battles carefully
Maybe datz why people stare at me
Eye know da gift I possess is a rarity
Flat out tired but when I have a moment to spare
Every now n then eye open up to share
Showin' da scarz through bars dat I bare
Put my heart on deez pages to shine against da glare
Cause when I do this eye have no cares
No worries
All my imperfections seem to scurry
Ya dig?
Datz how my sun shines when other forces want me buried

"How My Sun Shines" by Ra Shine McKoy aka Shawn Stare

"Why We Dyin' Out Here"

Vivid Painting's
Fiery ambiguous statements
All dissolvin' in chemical unbalanced liquid agents
Ignorance n Hatred
Disguised among racists
A chain of Love, da only way to break it
Obstacles, head on
Face It
Embrace It
It's hard to have patience when da same old proverbial saying's
Are not put forth through action
My penpal is my pen's passion
Music n Poetry is da only place I feel comfortable wit no distractions
When I'm stressin, it takes me to places eye couldn't fathom or imagine
Away from da sadness, but within da moment of madness
I Lose Myself like Eminem too when I'm rappin'
Just me n da Mic
No judge!, No attachments!
Life's a Bitch wit no compassion!
I'm not speakin' to hear myself talk or get a reaction
But now-a-dayz yo!, der really is no Loyalty
Not even a small fraction!
It's as many homeless out here as it is ratchets
Young niggaz my 12 year old daughter age packin'
Lives being taken like Liam Neeson, no remorse straight blastin'
Harsh realities hit me even more when eye pass em'
We ALL connected!, situations vexin'
Press to da limit, heart numb as I fight to regain feelin'
Eye shed tearz for deez murdered children
Innocent victim's
Cats who work profusely but get drowned by da system
Eye wrote dis a while ago puffin' some izm knockin' "80's Lifestyle" by Duff Sinatra
Salute bruh! I still pump dat shit, dat track take me back it's BONKERS!
Eye walk a tightrope but will jump off for what eye believe like da rockers
Men
It's Stare
Chaaaaaaair?
Sit down, I'm off my rocka
Women
My pen n penis game harder den mobsters
My silence is a main asset in my roster
But when eye do speak up
it's done wit humbleness, humility, respect, a spec of cockiness n humor
To open ya mind to da ganda datz not so propa
Eye don't gotta
yell
All crazy for you to know I'm not like others
Who shit rear ass asinine, worshipin' so called fallen pantheons
My words heal da sick
It's da truth-serum cure in da medicine dat voids da body of any pathogen
My arrows designed to hit da pc forefront n spear-head da monsta
Been on both sides, unfortunately
Inherited some sins of my father
Dat garbage on da screen is Rocky sparrin, fake boxin'
Instead of keepin' it real, we should try to keep it really honest
I spit my life in deez doctrines
No funny games either, "That's Life"! like Frank Sinatra
I can take you to meet da parents like Greg
Focker!
Who lives were cut short
Because we refuse to associate n familiarize ourselves wit da problem
My voice has no fear!
Cause I'm sick n tired of da foolish empty reasons why we dyin' out here

"Why We Dyin' Out Here" By Shawn Stare

"A BEAUTIFUL BLEND"

Past da
baton
Let me carry on, My mind ain't right when I write
It's presently gone
Eye terrorize pages, pastor, congregations, n chairmons
Dis is me in rare form
My pen is my wea-pon, I don't gotta bare arms
Short-sleeve
Eye see yourz kinda thin
Sex chicks like a oldskool tape deck, Dey just pop me in
Craig David style, "Feel me In"
Eye gotta cocky spin!
No gin
Just Body shots to deez pricks face n chin
Dat a put em' to sleep like soda popinski, ha! ha! ha! Can't box me friend
Circle back round, den drop ya men
Get da shovel like Brad n find a Pitt to drop you in!
You got BIG cahonnas huh?, Well I'll castrate dat n cut off ya whole bloodline circulation
You know me well, call me SIN!!!
Been round way before ya biology creationism of arti stry was apart of da chem
Eye Salute!!!, a branch off da forefathers dat paved da way, dis where my shit stem
Dat REAL hiphop!!!, I represent it just like dem
Just like him
It's da R
a
Like kim, da god emcee
Eat fruit off my tree, I'll split ya limbs
Introduced myself to you once, not gon' do it again
Eye Shine
Can't put out my light, my source of energy comes from within
Me + Poetry n Music = a beautiful blend

"A BEAUTIFUL BLEND" 
By Ra Shine McKoy aka Shawn Stare

"BLACK SHEEP"

Let me introduce myself before you fuck around n wrek ya self
I'll mess around n annihilate ya help
Yeah!
Stare, you n ya man go head
Stand there
Make em' disappear into thin air
But forget dat, Poorhouse!
Ya know da squad, Eye needs no introduction
Cats know who eye be in dis muthafucka
Freestyle Friday Chris Tucker
Deez rap artists are some funny nucca's
Eye stay away from sucka mc's like Run-Dmc
Dey a disease n I'm da lyrical medical cure for dey needs
Period!
Eye make da pad bleed
You a half-breed
My flow is a omen, a bad seed
I plant it in ya pc, you can't guard me!
I done been played cats out on dis mic like atari
I hail from Jersey!, da concrete jungle jumanji safari
Get ya weight up n ya barz B
Niggaz think dey a threat, hardly
Get up!, Stand Up!
Watch me rush da party, a buffalo soldier
I'm already a legend like Bob Marley
In my own write
Stanza's gnarly
Cats is airheads, Barbie's
Shine da Black Sheep of da family like Chris Farley
Beware like pun, I'll dead ya whole army
Boom!

"Black Sheep" By Shawn Stare
