(Part 1)

I am a poet!

I’m the last frontier for freedom of expression

I’m like the North Star, giving lost souls a sense of direction

I am a poet!

I’m not here to save your soul from your wicked ways

I just rhyme words and have your neurons firing for 3 days

I am a poet!

This ain’t a hobby, its more like a way of life

Without it, I’d fall on my own sword, take my own life

I am a poet!

Whoever said a poet couldn’t have tremendous swag

I walk around with comp notebooks inside my Gucci bag!

(Part 2)

I am a poet!

My weapon of choice is my mouth or a pen

Step up and I’ll bring your life to a swift end

I am a poet!

I don’t do this here for glory or fame

But to show the world that we’re not the same

I am a poet!

Your vocabulary can’t compare to my vernacular

Everyday, I thank God for a gift so spectacular

I am a poet!

A poet is what a poet does

I rhyme words and do it just because

I am a poet!

(Part 3)

I am a poet!

I’m the new age version of the old school storyteller

I paint pictures with a pen like Norman Mailer

I am a poet!

Lyrical expression is my life, you treat it like a hobby

That’s why my talent’s on the top floor, yours is in the lobby

I am a poet!

My spirit is a part of this, that’s why I get spiritual

But I get my hymns from Him, so it’s not me but He that’s lyrical

I’m not a miracle, I’m a Heaven sent instrument because

I am a poet!
