  1. One of my favorite poets is Eminem.. His journey and evolution as an artist is truly inspiring for me to witness. "Mockingbird" is a deeply personal piece and here is my own attempt over this haunting piano beat which he produced. Feedback much appreciated and always returned!

    *Lyrics*
    Baby i'm finally moving on in my heart not just my mind/
    The pain is gone with every dawn as i take part and watch it rise/
    I can see your eyes, cold as ice, freeze me til i crystallize/
    Sometimes we bleed inside just to know we're still alive/
    But i revived after i died, yet i was tied down by regret/
    That sinking feeling when you're thinking of all the things we ever said/
    I was laying in bed with memories replaying in my head/
    And only God was by my side so i chose to put Him first instead!/
    We broke bread til i was fed then our relationship began/
    When i put my plans in His hands and became a better man/
    Please understand that because i've loved you so/
    I had to let you go for us to grow like a rose underneath the snow/
    Cause we were so outta control, like two birds in a cage/
    Young & crazed and full of rage, your smile set my world ablaze/
    Our lips would graze as hips engage, you were afraid that things would change/
    From honeymoon to break up stage, i carry scars that'll never fade/
    At any rate, i had to recreate myself or detonate/
    And fight for this life that i elevate for i'm really not the type to wait for fate/
    When i make a mistake, then i innovate, no stressing just progression
    Cause there's always a lesson learned from every failure and rejection!/
    You question my profession but my fans believe i'll make it/
    I may not be a doctor yet i've always worked with patients (patience)
    I'm often imitated tho they can never replicate it/
    I'm too creative in my spaceship as i sabotage the matrix!
