LEGACY

I use to be the type of kid who always thought the sky was falling. Now that I know I'm different, makes me awesome. I don't have to follow other people's lives to try and solve them. I stick to my lost novels surrounded by wine bottles. I'm usually not this type of poet, but if I stomach it, I could probably slaughter it. All my life I was told and taught that I was nothing. Now it's time for me to tell you something. Shut the hell up, BITCH, I am talking, you keep thinking I'm full of horse shit now, until one day you'll mop up the ground that I'll be walking. Me against you all, SO WHAT?! You all got problems. You honestly don't get what's keeping you safe from me, and that's me writing novel's. If it wasn't for my poetry, I would be in a court case, but writing down my energy leaves me in a peaceful place. In case you think you can take me, say it to my face. I'm a unknown prophecy that'll jump right over heavens gate, containing lost souls on the way. One thing about me, I'm actually a good person without making it known. Real kings move mountains on their own. You couldn't last a day in survival mode. You live in a bitchie code that leads you down a slippery slope. I don't even know, I guess partly I'm feeling very woke. Biting my tongue is out the contrary, if you want milk, go find dairy, and suck on the nipple like a big baby. If you disrespect me, you get the legacy. If you disrespect my personal life, you get the reap in me. I'm done bringing peace, this is the reality. I'm not afraid to be who I am supposed to be. And the best part about it is that I'm not you, I'm me, and I'm the only Zaemon, and this is my legacy.
