    MAKE THE INVISIBLE (VISIBLE)

    hey my lady..check it out

    when i am done with this joint i want you 2 walk away

    run away

    whatever..just far enough away

    so you can determine if 

    i am full of shyt

     

    lemme drop the real...

     

    my approval rating was going 

    through the roof

    but the severity of your tears

    was absolute proof

    bullshyt is

    what a fake brotha does

    i almost went from a coulda been

    shoulda  been

    2 a never was

     

    everybody gatherin around

    down

    with my syncopatic 

    flow

    but in private my autocratic

    ways would show

    was never democratic

    in my false accusations

    what you thought was drama ending

    was in fact a continuation

    of my instigations

    so busy accepting congratulations

    and salutations

    i didnt realize my life had become

    an abomination

     

    i had 2 take a 

    look within

    accept my guilty admission

    make the invisible

    visible

    and produce evidence

    admissible

    in the court of your private opinion

     

    check it out..

     

    i was  tired of living 

    in the shadows of my betrayal

    brother dee

    is so righteously 

    real all my fans would hail

    but  

    our reality paled

    in comparisson

    2 the garrison

    i erected 

    around  my foolish heart

    thought i was protected

    but i was vunerable from the start

    when adulation produced vanity

    cant even plead insanity

    because the glove sho nuff fit

    straight real

    i was  full of shyt

     

    you see

    i could rub 12 poo nah nees

    kiss 16 sets of breasts

    and feel one perfect ebony azz

    but after the lust is gone

    how could i move on

    without a love that can last

    i dont need to be caught up

    in what the fucks

    wake up

    not knowing names

    just another  notch 

    on my membrane

    ignoring  the smoke 

    until i was trapped in the flames

    created by 

    my bullshyt lies

     

    baby 

    open your eyes

    and realize

    there is a big azz world out there

    waiting for you

    until i represent the copacetic

    black esthetic

    do what you must do

    and if you find a brother

    who can provide

    i will wish you love

    and step to the side

    think about the love i lost

    and weigh the cost

    but i wont hide

     

    i will just take 

    a look within 

    accept  my guilty admission

    make the invisible

    visible

    and  produce evidence 

    that is admissible

    in the court of your private opinion

     

    you see

    true love is the creators dominion

    so  while  i was dominating

    verbs and nouns

    i was forsaking

    the greatest love i had ever found

    real men 

    cry real tears

    and dont defend

    the tears of a clown

    actin in stereotypical fashion

    then harrasing

    the system for  being unfair

    how could i rise 2 my destiny

    if i was 2 lazy

    to climb the stairs

    but  

    you best believe i wont stay

    this incomplete

    one day soon i will be a brotha

    a quality woman seeks

    but right now i have alot of work 2 do

    2 break on through

    2 the  positive side

     

    i know  it wasnt all bad

    we had one hell of a ride

    but when  the carnival leaves town

    there is a mound 

    of trash left behind

    i wasnt looking 4 your love

    i was searching 4  signs

    she cant be this honest 

    this  genuine

    this real

    so i went 2 the jury 

    in a state of fury

    presenting my appeal

    my rebuttal

    was in trouble from the start

    a jury cant 

    stand  a man

    who breaks a womans  heart

    so i guess i was fated 

    2 be incarcerated

    by circumstantial evidence

    standing up there tryin 2 vent

    but my bullshyt 

    wasnt relavent

    to the case at hand

    i was a fukced up man

     

    so i had 2 take

    a look within

    accept my guilty admission

    make the invisible

    visible

    and produce evidence

    admissible

    in the court of your private opinion

     

     

    that is all i have 2 say baby

    you are a damn good lady

    i wish you the best

    you deserve it for real...

    no i want you back

    no appeal

    love you always ...peace
