Unabridged Heart Phillip J Rhoades 2011 by phillip-j-rhoades

Now my Rhymes are whack and my flow is fracked
And a super skinny beat is where I'm at
They be laughin' I know, like my life is a show
It's okay cuz I know, what they say it ain't so
I'm the big daddy mac they call Creepy Phil
An' if they don't dig my, well that's just their ill
I been pushed down, stood up, spun around until I lost
(That's okay) All the trouble, all the loss, made me super-strong-ultra-boss
(musical break)
They hate me? They don't know me. What they hate is just their story
You should love me. You should hate me. First you better know me.
Take a step back from all that they say and take a look at me today
And you might and you may find their words don't ring but crack like clay
You want to hate? I welcome this, but you better have some reason for your dis-
-Respect me for this, wicked brother, wicked sis
I stand as I am with soul in open unclenched hand
To show you this scarred and broken land. The unabridged heart of a man

You Will Taste My Blood

Phillip J Rhoades
‎"You will taste blood"

You tore it out
And you want to comfort me
But if you a kiss me now
You will taste my blood

You broke it
My heart is dead flesh
And all the wires you attach
All the batteries that leak
Acid
Won't start me up again

You tore it out
Don't comfort me
You broke it
And you will taste blood
If you kiss me now

Julia's Eyes

Her eyes will make the heart shiver
then shatter completely
And you will wonder, heartbroken,
Have her eyes yet seen me?

Girl With A Gun

Girl with six shooter
Makes my heart pause at the sight
Wish the gun was mine

Girl with six shooter
Shining like a deadly moon
But which stops my heart?

In Contemplation

I am sorry I abandoned you
I should have been larger than my pain
I should have been greater than my pride
I turned away when I should have looked deeper
I deafened myself in defense
I should have offered to listen
My loyalty should have been to friendship
Not my over tender heart
But now
I am here
I am listening
I have grown beyond my pride
I have parted ways with old pain
I am your friend
Though I know you are not mine
